No party for old men

November 7, 2008

It is sad what the Democrats are doing to Joe Lieberman. The only “sin” Sen. Lieberman committed was having opinions that did not quite align themselves with the new leadership. 
I looked up the Senator Oath of Office. It reads:

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United [...]

As long as I am going to be visiting all night, may as well be here!

Joe Mamma?

October 29, 2008

First, just watch the video. All the way to the end.

I know Alaska is part of these United States, but how ignorant of racism is Sarah Palin? It is almost as surreal to watch as John McCain singing “bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran” to a Beach Boys tune! Before she can lead America, she [...]

Do they talk american?

October 18, 2008

Here’s a tip when running for President of the United States of America: Pay attention in English class.
From an email on October 18, 2008 from the McCain/Palin camp, they write:
Help John McCain and Sarah Palin win in November!
With less than 18 days until Election Day our volunteer activities are in full swing. With your help [...]

You can reach more people with a blog than a bullhorn

September 27, 2008

Last night, I met Kealan on http://election.twitter.com. We have not spoken, I know nothing about her, but she said something during the debates that I thought was interesting and I wanted to be a part of the next really sage thing she says, whenever that is. So, I’m following her on Twitter.
I saw she tweeted [...]

Pay attention to the news cycle and do something with it

September 13, 2008

Yesterday, I received the monthly issue of Association News, read the front cover and was immediately in awe of the level to which this organization is paying attention to the world around them.
One could say that the choice of featuring Arizona was merely coincidental or that the state was next on the calendar [...]

Election Message to Gen-Y

September 10, 2008

Do you care who wins this election? Here is why you should.
If you are 24 now, you will be 28 when McCain/Palin runs for president again in 2012. Incumbents are almost always favored to win elections, so most likely they will win four more years. That will make you 32 years old. Four years after [...]

Advice to Hockey Moms

September 10, 2008

I was listening to Sarah Palin speak in Lebanon, OH yesterday and one piece of advice hit me that I really wish all the hockey moms and soccer moms would start embracing.
Celebrate your victory, not your opponent’s defeat.
It’s a simple bit of wisdom, but one that keeps you from turning into a vindictive, rapid animal [...]

Clinton many things, but not a proud dog owner

August 27, 2008

Not a proud dog owner and no record of advocacy for canine rights, but still a pretty good speaker. Listen for the reference to “Iran” at 8:29-8:52 clever.
A note to the Democrats: We don’t want to be “taken care of.” We just don’t want to work our entire lives to create a home and [...]

The assault on Ohio begins…

June 30, 2008

I now know that Ohio is a serious, serious battleground state for the US Presidential election. On Saturday, the WSJ ran an opinion piece entitled “The Self-Inflicted Economic Death of Ohio” in which Finn outlines all of the ways Ohioans have sabotaged their state’s economy. His thesis appears to be along the lines [...]

Clinton “pull-out” predicted

June 5, 2008

Sometimes, something is just way too funny not to mention. Do you think the copy editors writing the headlines at the Washington Post just did not drink enough Plain Joe Coffee before showing up for work today??
I thought that Clinton “did not have sexual relations with that woman…” Hillary, not Monica. So, why is there [...]

Party? What party?

May 5, 2008

I was settling in and almost asleep when some idiot on CNN was railing on and on about how this Clinton/Obama race is tearing the party apart, that it is bad for the Democrats, that they need to heal together to win the election in November. And, then as I hit that level of rage [...]

Is there a text in this election?

March 17, 2008

Oh, brother. Why is this DNC nominating process so hard for the common people to grasp? And why is the misinformation being fueled by the press? I saw the same thing happening when Bill Clinton was being impeached. The “mob” saw Clinton’s impeachment as him being thrown out of office. But wait, the Senate actually [...]

Political endorsements from Rufus

February 5, 2008

Rufus is pretty apolitical, but this election year, he has expressed some opinions on our walks. On the one hand, he is a black dog and feels pressure from CNN, Fox and all the other news people to support Obama. On the other hand, he is a dog and Hillary sometimes speaks in frequencies that [...]
