WSJ photo change-up

December 2, 2009

I understand regional differences in editorial selection for newspapers and different editions based on a kind of soft “stop the presses,” but really WSJ, are you pandering to us in the “Pro-America” parts of the country?
At least we should be grateful the cadet wasn’t reading “Goin’ Rogue”

Sarah Palin, please grow up, shut up, go away or learn some English

January 14, 2009

In a CNN.com blog post yesterday, Ms. Palin is quoted as saying:
I would think we all tear up during the national anthem at the beginning of a baseball game, don’t we? That’s an alikeness between Alaskans and New Yorkers.
Sigh. I think she meant to say something like “common bond” or “the bonds that united as [...]

Warm humanity in technology

November 21, 2008

About a year ago, I found The Browns on Amazon.com in a random search prompted by the memory of “I heard the bluebird sing” from my puppyhood. I bought the album and couldn’t wait to play it.
Well, I should have because the sound that came out of my speaker was crystal clear and remastered from [...]

Truemors was being goofy.

November 17, 2008

So here are my comments to 
Palin Calls Bloggers “Kids in Pajamas…in Their Parents’ Home”
Here is the quote from the Fox News site:
–QUOTE–
VAN SUSTEREN: Is there anything else that has been raised or said about you in the media, either during the convention — I mean, during the campaign or since the campaign ended, that you [...]

Never confuse ‘clear thought’ with crap

November 16, 2008

Last Saturday, Mark Lilla, a professor of humanities at Columbia University, wrote an article in the WSJ titled The Perils of ‘Populist Chic’, What the rise of Sarah Palin and populism means for the conservative intellectual tradition. It was well-thought out and objectively argued. In short, it explains why presidential candidates need to go bowling and drinking [...]

Brought to you by some upstanding, God-fearing Christians

November 4, 2008

The family down the street flies the flag every day, even puts a light on it at night and takes it in during the rain. At Christmas time, they decorate their house with a large Nativity star, a manger set and a large sign that reads “Jesus is the Reason for the Season.”
It makes [...]

105 feet… so close, yet…

November 4, 2008

This was outside my polling place in Ohio. Notice that the McCain/Palin sign is as close as the law allows. Clearly, the letter of the law is being invoked, but not the spirit. I’m pretty certain that an over-eager supporter put this there, but this really is not helping put your candidate in the best [...]

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 [...]

The presidency is now a talent contest!

October 20, 2008

From the OMG! department. Is McCain really doing a call from entries to a “I’m Joe the Plumber” contest? Really??
I’m sure there are a lot of words for this, but I’m just beyond them right now.

Palin popularity not the same as ability

October 20, 2008

On Morning Joe today, Joe Scarborough sat in his chair and said with a straight face: (I am paraphrasing as I was so dumbfounded at what I was hearing that I could not work the TiVo fast enough)
Governor Palin has been able to attract the largest viewership ever for SNL, the largest for any VP [...]

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 [...]

The $5,000 health insurance question

October 4, 2008

I am a self-employed dog who buys his own health insurance. I’ve been listening to all these pundits and political candidates talking about government “getting out of the way” so individuals can buy their own health insurance. “Let the free market do it’s thing” is the cry from most of them.
I have come to [...]

Plain talk Palin email

October 2, 2008

Well, not really plain talk, but we’ll translate.
I received this email from Sarah Palin…. well, not from her personally, but from the Palin-McCain Campaign. I’ve attached it as a PDF file for you to read, but here are some highlights.
1. She encourages me to vote TODAY because you can vote early in Ohio. I read [...]

Put the smart guys in charge, please

October 1, 2008

Susan Suess Kennedy wrote an article recently for the Huffington Post examining why Americans have such a disdain for smart people. A popular terms among the non-intellectuals and shallow thinkers is “elistism.” The undereducated white guys chant this, along with “drill baby, drill” (which I don’t really get as a mantra, but ok..) Here’s the [...]

Stop the madness, Palin

September 29, 2008

When you fall off the moose, the best thing to do it get right back on? NO!!! You lie there and play dead. Please, Palin, play dead….
Pizza, cheesesteak.. what’s the difference in Philadelphia. Gotcha, voters! Hollering a question across an area? He was right there in front of her, bending into her ear.
