I think about everyone who’s watched the Clintons for the last sixteen years or so have seen this coming a mile away and a long time comin.

The message here is obvious:  Your children are at risk unless you vote for the experienced candidate.  You do love your children don’t you?  Well, then ya gotta vote [...]

This is very interesting to me:

Angelina Jolie supports the surge.  She does because it’s working.  In that it’s working, it allows humanitarian aid to get to those in need inside Iraq.  And, apparently displaced people are trying to come home.  So, she’s trying to keep the surge in place so that they can safely.
I don’t [...]

A lot is suddenly being made over a New York Times article that questions whether John McCain qualifies for President.  It seems he was born in Panama.  Some people are taking the Times to task since they endorsed McCain a long time ago and “suddenly” realized a critical piece of his biography.  Now, to the very [...]

The amazing thing about this one so far is it seems only my buds in at Independent Sources seem to have noticed:
Quoting Barack:
“In Youngstown, Ohio, I talked to workers who have seen their plants shipped overseas as a consequence of bad trade deals like NAFTA, literally seeing equipment unbolted from the floors of factories and [...]

That’s the question being asked on CNN right now.  Naturally the two Democrat candidates left are battling it out over who the rest of the world will like better.  To me that’s not really much of an issue.  I’m sure they’ll like either of the two, and probably McCain as well, better.  However, that’s appropriate.  [...]

In the face of record high profits, and expenses, for oil, Nancy Pelosi has just the plan to ease our pain.
Add some taxes to the cost.
Democrats in Congress are relying on record oil prices and a surge in gasoline costs to make another attempt at imposing $18 billion in new taxes on the largest oil [...]

With the dwindling list of candidates, the major parties have become kinda boring.  Sure we’ve got a race on the Democrat side, but I don’t think it’s going to last much longer.  So, to spice things up a little, Ralph Nader has once again jumped into the fray.

OLBERMANN: The phrase here, “protect the candidate from himself.” “Intervene.” This sounds, this sounds eerily familiar. We harkened back to the efforts from members of President Clinton’s staff to try to keep Monica Lewinsky away from him ten years ago or more. Those are eerily similar uses of the language, are they not?
The only problem [...]

I finally read someone who’s better at writing than I am comment basically what I’ve been saying here:
It’s hard not to be dazzled by Barack Obama. At the 2004 Democratic convention, he visited with Newsweek reporters and editors, including me. I came away deeply impressed by his intelligence, his forceful language and his apparent willingness [...]

The wife of Barack had this to say today:
“What we have learned over this year is that hope is making a comeback. It is making a comeback. And let me tell you something — for the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has [...]
