First it was Kathleen Parker, a conservative syndicated columnist, who said out loud that “John McCain’s current running mate” must go. What she stated about her was dead on. She makes a strong argument in her defense but concludes with this.
What to do?
McCain can’t repudiate his choice for running mate. He not only risks the [...]

The final straw came today when the SEC Chairman (who John McCain rightly thinks should be fired) banned short selling this morning in the financial sector. In other words, investors are not allowed to weigh in on the raging stupidity of the upper management of the banks and investment houses. The appalling decisions of these [...]

The big issues- according to Jack- that should prevent us from electing McCain include:
That McCain must be a gangster because of something that happened 60 years ago in his wife’s family
That Sarah Palin alone- not basic geography, climate, nor Sen. Stevens- is responsible for the fact that maintaining the basic infrastructure costs more per capita [...]

In Obama’s new ‘Isotoners are off- again‘ approach, his first attack ad mocks McCain’s inability to use modern technology:
“It’s extraordinary that someone who wants to be our president and our commander in chief doesn’t know how to send an e-mail.“
However, in e recent interview, he certainly seems fairly well-versed in the internet (listing various blogs [...]

It appears that Senator Barack Obama is not the only one with a pastor in the closet. Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, who will be running with Senator John McCain as the Vice-Presidential candidate from the Republican Party, may not only have a fiery pastor to explain, but her own sermon/speech as well. Palin’s use [...]

Politicians tend to make heaps of promises they neither fulfill nor even make the attempt to. Most are in the political arena, but sometimes a personal commitment- a good one- slips by the wayside when it really shouldn’t. Isolated instances of forgotten personal commitments may or may not be a reflection of [...]

One of the chief criteria of being President of the United States, is having the good judgment when it comes to key appointments. Several weeks ago, Senator McCain fired his campaign manager and chief political strategist (or the “chief of lacking in political strategy”), and appointed Rick Davis to be his new campaign manager. After [...]

I told Mike it wasn’t a joke made in good humor–a poor taste of civility (poking fun here, folks). Anyway, it’s upset some Iranians, but since the Iranians quoted are from the government, they automatically equate it with genocide.
This is what happens when you get the McCain making remarks and the ever-boastful Iranian regime spouting [...]

Did anyone notice that despite all the talk about illegal immigration last year, the establihment managed to get two candidates, one on each side, that is a complete flip-flop from the illlegal immigration stance that most Americans hold?
There’s only one obvious reason. The merging of the three North American countries has been a goal long [...]

Barack Obama on the right track to victory
After three debate performances Barack Obama has convinced the nation he is “presidential material” and now has the edge to become the next President of the United States. All the polls are pointing into Obama’s direction as he now has the edge and leads in every state that John Kerry won, according to The Rasmussen [...]
