Suddenly I grow sick at the word ‘nuance’

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Every presidential election brings us a new code word from the DNC that gets swallowed and regurgitated by the mainstream media and political pundits to the point that I must go on an antiemetic intravenous drip until after the election.  In 2000 we got gravitas, which was a codeword to indicate that Bush was a lightweight.  [...]

Will Obama Be Able to Put Pride Aside and Select Clinton for V.P.?

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

August trends don’t necessarily spell doom for November, but the Obama campaign has certainly seen better days.  While a number of blogs see the potential for a Clinton run at the convention, the only real question is whether Obama will put pride aside and pick the one person for his ticket who can almost certainly [...]

Before saving the world Obama, how about saving your own family?

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

An Italian newspaper is reporting they tracked down Barack Obama’s long-lost brother, George Hussein Onyango Obama , living in a run down hut in a small town near Nairobi. The poor fellow is living in a 2×3 meter shack.
“I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist.”
Embarrassed by his penury, he said that he does [...]

Obama Megalomania

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Barack Obama had this to say yesterday:
“I don’t intend to lose this election. John McCain doesn’t know what he’s up against right now. He can talk all he wants about Britney and Paris, but I don’t have time for that mess.”
I’m sorry for ridiculing you, Barack. I know how unstable you are, and how upset [...]

Barack Obama: All Hail the Complainer-in-Chief

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

The other day Barack Obama had this message. Too bad there were no violins playing in the background:
But one of the things that we have to change in this country is the idea that people can’t disagree without challenging each other’s character and patriotism. I have never suggested that Senator McCain picks his positions [...]

The Hottest Tourist Attraction in Denver: The Guantanamo Simulator

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

The hottest tourist attraction in Denver next week will not be the NASCAR simulator.  Forget that.  Welcome to the Guantanamo simulator, a riviting experience that simulates “a global symbol of torture, presumed guilt, unfair trials, and no legal rights—courtesy of the U.S. government.”  It’s advertised with the catchy slogan, “Your Cell is Waiting”.
I’m getting tingly.
In fairness [...]

Leftists Decry America, Ignore Global Evil of Leftist Regimes

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

There are more slaves today than at any time in history. Yet blacks in America ignore that tragic reality and instead fiercely decry this country over its part in an institution that was ended - at great expense to whites - nearly 150 years ago. And even though it is Islam and Muslim countries that [...]

Coca Cola, Typical Pluralistic (Except for Christianity) Company

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Bob McCarty came across this:
The crescent moon and star — yes, the same symbol featured on the flags of so many Muslim countries — is an internationally-recognized symbol of the Islamic faith in much the same way as the cross represents Christianity and the star of David Judaism. When I learned the symbol of the [...]

McCain Takes the Lead in Reuters/Zogby Poll

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Reversing Obama’s 7 point advantage from July, McCain now leads by 5 points in the latest Reuters/Zogby poll.  The poll was taken before McCain’s strong performance at the Saddleback Civil Forum.
According to the article, “Obama’s support among Democrats fell 9 percentage points this month to 74 percent, while McCain has the backing of 81 percent [...]

Short Takes From Tasteless News Network (T.N.N.)

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

“I voted for it before I voted against it.” Define the word “the”.” My maternal uncle liberated Auschwitz even though he’s American and even though I don’t have a maternal uncle.” Tasteless News Network, T.N.N. realises that there is more than one truth and more than one reality. T.N.N. creates its own reality and brings [...]
