Taking a break from the Palin blitz, I found a local story that got my attention.  Kill a human and face a civil suit but kill a cat and spend your golden years in the clink !

Well, it’s all over MSNBC and the Daily Kos and the HuffPost, so I guess it’s time to face up to facts.  It’s true.  It can no longer be denied: Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is a practicing Christian.
This actually seems to rate as some sort of [...]

Since the Republican convention, the gap between the Democrats and the Republicans has narrowed considerably. The USA Gallup poll actually places the Republicans ahead by five points in a generic congressional race. Real Clear Politics, which averages all of the polls together has the Republicans behind by 5.4%

Good and evil almost never express themselves as harshly and clearly as they did that Tuesday morning. People we don’t know slaughtered people we do and they did it with contemptuous glee.
Yet, even as clouds of dust and smoke rose from the rubble, even as family members tortured by hope and doubt took to the streets with [...]

The political conventions this year were historic for three very important reasons.  Barack Obama is the first African-American to be nominated for President, Sarah Palin is the first woman nominated as the Republican Vice President and little Trig Paxson Van Palin has become a civil rights leader.
Pronounced by his mother as “beautiful” and “perfect” and [...]

Ed Koch, a former mayor for whom I never voted has endorsed Barack Hussein Obama. Despite her consistent approval ratings in steady excess of 80%, with voters of all persuasions in Alaska, Koch says he finds Sarah Palin to be “frightening”. He cites her alleged request to banbooks when she served as mayor of Wasilla, [...]

Barack Obama is “about-to-go-totally-postal” livid with outrage over the “lies,” “swift boat politics,” and “phony outrage” generated by his “You can put lipstick on a pig” remark that followed Palin’s “What’s the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull?  Lipstick” quip.
Aside from the fact that Obama’s “lipstick on a pig” remark follows in [...]

It is time to realize that liberal feminists Democrats are ugly, hateful, and evil.
S.C. Dem chair: Palin primary qualification is she hasn’t had an abortion
South Carolina Democratic chairwoman Carol Fowler sharply attacked Sarah Palin today, saying John McCain had chosen a running mate “whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.”
Palin [...]

In 2006, Republican Senatorial candidate George Allen, a former governor of Virginia, visited Southwest Virginia on a campaign swing.  The video of Allen’s “macaca” remark is credited with being a factor in his loss to Jim Webb.  In 2008, Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama visited Southwest Virginia on a campaign swing.  Is the [...]

Barack Obama has played enough basketball to understand three terms: defense, underdog, and losing.
In a rather dramatic turnaround from just a short time ago, his campaign is experiencing all three of them.
An Associated Press article titled, “Analysis: Obama is back on defense against McCain,” provides a sketch of Barack Obama’s problems.
The man who so often [...]

The Wall Street Journal offered a publication-wide editorial that pointed out the fact that Barack Obama’s economic plan is now undergoing its third incarnation.
The Obama campaign has been attacking the Bush economic plan, and trying to label McCain’s economic plan for being a “third Bush term.”  But at least they have a plan; Obama now [...]

Camille Paglia has a thoughtful piece worth reading, with a lot of meat in it to chew over. Some excerpts:
The gun-toting Sarah Palin is like Annie Oakley, a brash ambassador from America’s pioneer past. She immediately reminded me of the frontier women of the Western states, which first granted women the right to vote after the Civil [...]

Do you remember that endless liberal media narrative that followed in the wake of John McCain’s naming Sarah Palin as his Vice President?
We saw stuff like this piece, titled, “Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton,” everywhere:
Where do politicians get the idea that women, in lemming-like style, will vote for a presidential ticket because a woman [...]

Well by now we all know the what the pig comment was about, but I haven’t seen anyone call Obama out on his swipe at McCain with the old fish comment. Obama, that was a sneaky way to get that in, but it seems you are desperate enough to use your last resort, ageism. Desperate is not [...]

An interesting poll: more women think Sarah Palin is “unqualified” for the job she is seeking than men.
It’s really quite fascinating, when you think about it.  Liberal women have been portraying men as chauvinistic, sexist, dismissive, and patronizing toward women for my entire adult lifetime.  And then a talented, intelligent, courageous, and attractive woman comes [...]

I really thought this had run its course; but I was overconfident.  This may be the last one, but it’s certainly not the least, because today’s winnah is Mr. Sweetie himself - -
(drumroll, please!)
Barack Obama!
