Going off the radar...
I won’t be doing much/any tumbling in the next few days. Today is my Birthday, so party time, and then tomorrow my dad and I are heading out to Pennsylvania for the remaining few days of the campaign to get the vote out for out boy Barack. Hopefully the next time you see me, we’ll have elected the first black president! Everybody vote. Everybody do anything and everything you can....
McCain's Disgrace →
The McCain campaign has been throwing around so much mud and smears in recent weeks that it’s easy to miss just how ugly and shameful their character assassination of Rashid Khalidi is. This is an entirely respectable, highly respected scholar. To go further into making a case for him would only be to enable and indulge McCain’s sordid appeal to racism. For McCain, personally, to...

Erica: hey, are you ok?
Joy: I have a problem, do you have a sec?
Erica: kind of – I am in the middle of saving reproductive rights for the women of New York, but I will e-listen
Joy: okay, so, whenever I see Barack Obama speak, I want to make out with someone and I’m worried about what that says about me, and, if president, what that will mean. I mean, what if he announces that we’re going...

McCain gets all "socialist" on Florida →
robot-heart:
“We will drill offshore, and we will drill now,” the Republican presidential candidate told a rally in Miami’s Little Havana. “If we’re going to drill off the state of Florida, you deserve more of those revenues. They shouldn’t be sent to Washington, they should be sent to Tallahassee.”
Inspired by Palin’s “share the wealth” policy with oil revenues in Alaska?
And McCain has crafted...
Obama’s new ad FINALLY goes after Dick Fingers and his retarded choice of running mate. And hear that little ‘thump-thump’ in the background? Subtle awesomeness.
ELISABETH HASSELBECK: Obviously both sides are trying to run and create image. So if we use this as, so they both have funds and are creating an image, making sure their candidates are where they need to be seen, as they need to be. I find it completely then repulsive to then - if we want to look at spending - see how Barack Obama now is going to spend what $3 million on two thirty minute ads...
"Blah Blah Blah Blah" →
“By the way, no one will delay the World Series game with an infomercial when I’m president!’’ Mr. McCain said. (Democrats quickly noted that the opening game of the football season had been moved up to accommodate the Republican convention.)
McCain Tackles Obama on "Spread the Wealth" →
dazza:
What put this all into Cloud Cuckoo Land is that no state ‘spreads the wealth’ more than Alaska. Thanks to the Alaska Permanent Fund, every resident of Alaska gets a cut of the royalties on resources. Palin doubled the payment to residents this year.
This is possible because, in Alaska, the state owns the mineral rights. In every other US state, the land owner owns everything under the...
I wish this was how everyone in America talked politics.
McCain Tackles Obama on "Spread the Wealth" →
rlrr:
The McCain campaign apparently has a new theme this week: attacking Obama for wanting to “spread the wealth.” But it is not clear what that really means. Many Republicans have bitterly opposed the federal income tax since the 16th amendment was passed in 1913. Is McCain going to repeal the federal income tax? If so, how does he plan to finance the government? Or does he mean that the...
