Wow, I'm all for it! I'm with you ma'am! No more payments to anyone, except that is Obama I guess. If you help him, he'll help you! It must be true, she believes it is anyway:
I watched Cavuto's program on Fox News today, as he interviewed Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) about Obama's claim that taxes would be less than Reagan's. Watch as the Senator talks around the issue and never really answers the question, frustration clearly showing on Cavuto's face:
Seems to me he is just using the patented double speak, twisting the facts to fit the argument as Obama has been doing his entire campaign.He clearly doesn't want to answer he question, instead trying to use diversion to talk about the capital gains tax, something most working families have little or no interest in. I guess it is a tax though...clearly not relevant to the question being asked. But when is anyone on the Obama campaign interested in answering questions they are asked? Hope and change.....
So I'm driving along minding my own business, enjoying the beautiful sunshine on my way into work when I hear the latest ad from Barry's campaign. You know the one about how John McCain doesn't use email blah blah blah. Here is the ad:
Do I take this as a slam on McCain?
No.
One word comes to mind when I hear this ad.
Desperate.
That is how I took the ad, not as a slam against McCain but as a desperate hail mary response to the drop in polls that Barry Obama has taken recently.
Why didn't I take it as a slam on McCain? Why doesn't it bother me that he can't type?
Well, go back a few decades to his prisoner of war time and you might understand. When you are tortured on a daily basis for 5 or 6 years, shoulders dislocated again and again, fingers broken, beaten with pipes and given medical treatment that would, in a normal society, get the doctor thrown in jail for malpractice, you can see why maybe he doesn't have the full use of his arms. And maybe, just maybe, using a computer or typing is extremely difficult, or dare I say impossible, for him. He can't even raise his arms above his shoulders!
As Jonah Goldberg notes in his blog post, "even the most ardent supporter of Barry, Jacob Weisberg of Slate, noted in 2000:
"At 63, he is the oldest of the bunch and because of his war injuries, he is limited in his ability to wield a keyboard."
The article by Weisberg notes how McCain is actually quite techologically literate, quite the opposite impression you get from the latest ad from Barry's campaign.
If you are a liberal pro-choice Obama supporter then the answer is yes!
If you are conservative pro-life then I'm sorry, they aren't for you.
You would think an organization, that represents itself to support all women, would be overjoyed when a woman is nominated for the 2nd highest office in the land. Or is serving this country as it's Secretary of State.
Not a chance.
According to NOW PAC Chair Kim Gandy, they only support "women's righs" not women in general. Seems odd they even have a PAC since one of the tenents in their organizational document says they aren' t political:
"NOW WILL HOLD ITSELF INDEPENDENT OF ANY POLITICAL PARTY in order to mobilize the political power of all women and men intent on our goals."
The "independent of any political party" statement is hilarious. Of course they are a liberal organization as they have proven many times in support of candidates on the democratic ticket.
This is perfect example of an organization that has a title implying one thing and meaning another. Similar to the supposed gun rights group "Americans for Gun Safety". They are nothing more than a gun control group, as exposed in this article.
I read an open letter from Ann Kilkenny, who is "friends" with Sarah Palin.
Not sure I'd classify her as friends after reading that email but I digress.
The email is anything but friendly, full of innuendo's and small town political hate. I've seen this all before in city and county governments that I have been involved in as a citizen and also an employee. Nothing in this email is any different.
I tried to watch some of the DNC coverage these last few days.
No really, I did try!
It gets to the point, however, when the constant and repetitive lies get to you.
The Weekly Standard has a good article on all of this drivel that has been coming out of the running mate for Obama, you know who he is. I can't even speak his name, he offends me so.
