Question

Being the uptighty whitey I am I was unaware of the lack of love Latinos and Blacks share for one another.  Perhaps this is a MSM meme being put forth but what they were saying in regards to the Democratic Party and this issue made sense and it doesn’t bode well for the Party. The […]

President Bush and top administration officials issued hundreds of false statements about the national security threat from Iraq in the two years following the 2001 terrorist attacks. The study counted 935 false statements in the two-year period. It found that in speeches, briefings, interviews and other venues, Bush and administration officials stated unequivocally on at […]

Romney is a Fake

Filed in Uncategorized by on January 15, 2008 2 Comments

Mitt was caught in one of those Presidential campaign gotchas today when it turned out that the unemployed, single-mother of two, happened to also be the mother of one of his paid staff. This reminds me of so many gaffes that have been called out throughout the years.  Wasn’t the argument in 2000 that Al […]

Richardson Packs It In

Bill Richardson is planning to pull out of the Democratic race for President.  I had such high hopes for him at the outset, but almost from that point, he started to annoy me with bad answers to good questions.  I’m not sure who he appealed to, but probably those people that backed Bill will migrate […]

Romney Gives Up on FL and SC

Mitt Romney has pulled all paid ads in Florida and South Carolina, where he has spent $5.5M combined.  Instead, Romney is going to concentrate his efforts on winning his birth state of Michigan.  It is hard to see this as anything but conceding these in hopes of winning in Michigan this Tuesday and using that […]

Are You Gay, Black or Sane? Ron Paul Might Not Be For You.

There have been mentions of the Ron Paul newsletter from time to time in the MSM. Now, The New Republic’s James Kirchick has dug many of them up and has the scoop on them. Basically, if you are black, he thinks you are a lazy money-grubber. If you are gay, he hopes you get AIDS […]

I have to thank Dave Burris.  I didn’t get it until I listened to what he was saying.  He has been battered by polls for the past 6 months that showed that Mitt was doing poorly nationally.  Dave pointed out that nationally didn’t matter so much at the beginning.  Mitt was spending to win Iowa […]

Josh Marshall at TPM found this little nugget on Huckabee. If you remember and know Bush and the rest use little “code” words to reassure their base it’s nuts to say that it doesn’t happen. But the more research you do the more you learn about how it infects his speech. So onto Huckabee. Go […]

No kidding? better late than never I guess

Filed in Uncategorized by on January 2, 2008 11 Comments

I guess it’s a good thing, even though these same “unfit” machines helped get W. in office the first time. In December alone, top election officials in Ohio and Colorado declared that widely used voting equipment is unfit for elections. “Every system that is out there, one state or another has found that they are […]
