Get Out and Vote!

The time has come.
It’s all come down to this…
McCain and Obama have done their part… they brought us to this point… now the rest is up to us.
Please get out there and vote!
I didn’t sleep a wink last night in anticipation of voting today.
I’m like a little kid… just so excited!
I won’t sleep again, I’m [...]

John McCain, Ambulances and Meet the Press

I watched John McCain on Meet the Press this morning.
Wow.
What a cranky old man.
Tom Brokaw was a gracious host… and wasn’t terribly tough on McCain… though he did ask him a few hot-button issue-type questions…
A few times, I really thought McCain was about to blow a fuse or have a coronary or something.
I wonder if [...]

Democratic Senators’ Homes Vandalized… Why Is McCain So Quiet?

Tonight we hear news that Missouri Senators Claire McCaskill and Russ Carnahan have had their homes vandalized.
Authorities found words spray painted on the properties… “traitor”… “Bailout for China is treason”… and my personal favorite, “Psalm 2″.
For those who may not be aware, here is Psalm 2, from the Bible, in its entirety:

2:1 Why do the nations [...]

Puppies, the GOP and Denial

I believe I’ve identified one of McCain’s campaign tactics…
If bad press rears its ugly head, step one is to attempt to diffuse it… and when that doesn’t work…
Deny.
Even if the reason for the bad press is legitimate and true, and campaign spokespeople- and candidates themselves- have already acknowledged it…
… even if it can easily be proven, deny the hell out [...]

Colin Powell Endorses Barack Obama for President

Colin Powell has endorsed Barack Obama for President.
 
I woke up early this morning so I could be sure to catch Meet the Press… I knew Colin Powell was going to be on the show, and I had heard rumors that he may be ready to endorse a candidate.
 
I didn’t want to miss it.
 
I’ve known who my candidate [...]

Fruity Pebbles, The Debate and Temper Tantrums

Alright, so I think I have finally solved the mystery of what caused John McCain’s cancer issues.
Nuclear Power.
In last night’s debate, McCain told the crowd that nuclear energy is completely safe, using the example that he had been aboard a ship- for years- that had nuclear-energy-type-stuff on it.
Fast forward the clock to present… and the [...]

VP Debates, Stupid People and Richard Nixon

I have a few thoughts about the VP Debate last night…
Shocking, I know.
I think Sarah Palin did a great job…
… Well, she did a great job in speaking to the uneducated masses, anyway.
She also did a great job reading from her script.
I’m glad to learn, for all her shortcomings, Sarah Palin is not illiterate.
She can read with [...]

Sarah Palin, Foreign Policy, and the Irony of Country First

John McCain is crying again.
He thinks the media is tricking his poor little Pitt Bull Palin into looking like she is so desperately- horribly- out of her league.
Uh…
Right.
None of this could have anything to do with the fact that she is out of her league…
Could it?
Shit- now it’s gotten so bad that I’m not only [...]

The Suspension That Never Was…

Deep down, I knew this shit was too good to be true.
The GOP ticket is so full of empty promises- it’s enough to break a girl’s heart.
So while everyone else was busy suspending McCain’s campaign, he was busy…
Um…
Campaigning.
Naw- he didn’t actually hightail it to Washington to steer the Senate masses in the right direction so as to pass this economic bailout [...]

Depression, Captains and Multi-Tasking

McCain has announced that he will be suspending his campaign to concentrate solely on the economy.
He wants Obama to put his campaign on hold too- and has asked that Friday’s presidential debates be cancelled.
Obama’s cool taking the partisan route with McCain, and coming up with an economic plan-of-action… in fact, it was Obama’s idea to try and work with McCain on this train-wreck to begin [...]
