McCain Would Continue NeoCon Agenda »

If “Joe the Plumber” only knew that the Republicans he so admires really hold him in disdain. His only value to them is good old reliable fodder to fuel their war chests. He’s a believer OK, and a fool.
If their exists any doubt that the Republican party is dominated by the NeoCon [...]

Maybe “Joe the Plumber” Should Become “Joe the Solar Guy” »

In a recent commentary on CNN, by Carl Schramm, president and CEO of the Kauffman Foundation, he suggests that we need to support people like “Joe the Plumber”, and provide the climate in which such entrepreneurial ventures can grow and prosper. Although he doesn’t say so directly in his commentary, I suppose this is [...]

‘Socialism’ - Boola, Boola! »

If you want to scare the H__ out of everyone this Holloween, dress up like “A Socialist”! For some reason, this seems to terrorize Americans like few words do. McCain is now using this as his new “scare” tactic, accusing Obama of “socialism”.
I have two words for McCain: “Who Cares!!”? A number [...]

GOP Conspiracy Afoot? »

Sometimes I think our political leaders read too much Ian Fleming, or worse, indulge in the faint-within-faint-within-faint political tactics implicit in the whole “Dune” series. If the recent insinuated allegation recently filed by the Obama Campaign is true, then we have nothing short of a full fledged conspiracy to undermine the very fabric of [...]

Joe the Plumber Better Off as a Dem »

It turns out “Joe the Plumber” (real name is Joe Wurzelbacher) isn’t really a plumber, and has no real plans to buy anyones business in the near future. In addition, he currently makes about $40,000 a year, and if he did manage to buy the business he has his eye one, he might, if [...]

GOP Prayer: One God Under Country »

Conrad, who appeared before the crowd before McCain had arrived, offered a prayer that seemed to urge divine intervention to prevent Barack Obama from winning the presidential election — and cast the outcome as a referendum on differing religions.
The Times’ Maeve Reston was at the event, and she passed along the key passage from Conrad’s [...]

Bush: ‘This Sucker Could Go Down’ »

Future generations (if schools still exist), might be taught about the historic meeting on September 25th, 2008, when President Bush was heard to utter “If money doesn’t loosen up, this sucker could go down.”
It was supposed to be not much more than a photo-opportunity, a demonstration of national unity in the face of economic [...]

McCain’s VP Choice Prefers the Dark Ages »

Pesky Scientists Ruining Our Good Time - AGAIN
There are an estimated 20,000-25,000 polar bears in the Arctic, but scientists from the US Geological Survey predict that two thirds of the world’s bears will disappear in the next 50 years because of a decline in the Arctic sea ice.
In a stark warning last year, scientists at [...]

Corsi Bashes McCain »

Jerome Corsi, who Swift-boated John Kerry as co-author of ‘Unfit to Command’ in 2004 and who is trying to do the same to Obama in his newly minted best seller, ‘The Obama Nation.’
About the same time his book came out (now a number one best seller), I received an email from a friend entitled “Not [...]

Big Oil Hits New Highs and New Lows »

A recent article by CNN suggests that Big OIl is at it again, spending huge amounts of money to make sure their record breaking profits stay in tact.  In what may be surprising to some, the most recent figures from the Center for Responsive Politics show that the oil industry gives a relatively small sum to [...]
