Governor Rod Blagojevich arrested for trying sell a Senate seat! That is so old fashioned.

The Senator Stevens juror who left the trial? It wasn’t her dad she went to see. It was a horse race.
You really can’t make this stuff up.
This is going to put Your Mama Is So Dumb jokes in perspective.
“If [the media] convince enough voters that that is negative campaigning, for me to call Barack Obama out on his associations,” Palin told host Chris Plante, “then I don’t know what the future of our country would be in terms of First Amendment rights and our ability to ask questions without fear of attacks by the mainstream media.”
There seems to be some idea that after November 4th (assuming John McCain loses) that the litmus test for “Real” GOP membership will be how you reacted to Sarah Palin. Which is a funny idea because she did not have to go through the Republican primaries. Mitt Romney and Tom Ridge competing with her should be fun to watch.
Oh, and to all those people who want to know about Barack Obama’s associations? Keith Olbermann tears that down.
I don’t normally watch Olbermann as I find him to be a little too righteous and long winded, but that is a funny video.
Okay, I guess Bill Ayers 15 minutes are up. Now their linking Senator Obama with the PLO.
Here is the appropriate response:
The Obama campaign called Palin’s remarks “another recycled, manufactured controversy from the McCain campaign to distract voters’ attention from John McCain’s lockstep support for George Bush’s economic policies.”
Palin accuses Obama of ties to second ‘radical professor’ – CNN.com
Not able to speak intelligently about the McCain campaign’s proposed policies for energy, foriegn policy, and the economy, she continues to appeal to the worst of their supporters. Why can’t they just talk up what THEY would do in the white house? CNN has a fact-check article here.
I know that Governor Palin’s time is running down, and if John McCain loses this election I’ll be glad just to get Palin out of the news cycle. That is, assuming McCain loses. I am pretty sure that election night is going to be a nail biter.
When Senator McCain was running in the primary against George W., Karl Rove ran a dirty whisper campaign and W. won the primary. It was your typical get elected at all cost move and sadly it worked.
Now this?
“Our opponent though, is someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect that he’s palling around with terrorists who would target their own country.”
That’s some Maverick behavior alright. The statement is nonsense and the McCain campaign knows it.
Next up Palin will be saying things about his religion (he’s Christian), and his upbringing (he did not attend a madrasah), and his patriotism (his wife does not hate America).
I like how this is orchestrated to have Governor Palin spout this nonsense. You don’t want to have McCain dirty his dress whites after all.
Senator McCain knows this is his last shot for the brass ring. So scruples be damned, his campaign will do and say whatever it takes to get anyone to vote for him.
First they released a “McCain Wins Debate” ad a day early and now this.
ex·ag·ger·at·ed
–adjective
1. unduly or unrealistically magnified: to have an exaggerated opinion of oneself.
2. abnormally increased or enlarged.
I did not watch the debates but, you betcha, I’m dog gonnit, gonna read up on it.
The success criteria for each VP candidate was pretty low. I mean, all Governor Palin had to do was form complete sentences and she exceeds expectations. All Senator Biden had to do was not look across the room and shout “Are you kidding me?”
This is why I can’t really get into the debates. It’s just an extended ad.
Well, this is a Maverick move. Or maybe Senator McCain is just nuts.
“We haven’t heard hide nor hair of Sen. McCain in these negotiations,” said Schumer, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. “He has not been involved except for an occasional, unhelpful statement, sort of thrown from far away, and the last thing we need in these delicate negotiations is an injection of presidential politics.”
If Senator McCain was so entrenched in dealing with this corporate welfare bailout, then maybe. But he has not been involved and Senator Obama is right. Voters need a president who can deal with multiple problems at once. This is just another “Why do they hate America?” stunt.
Why would anyone hesitate to give the Bush administration more cash…?
The proposal “does not include the necessary safeguards,” said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. She called for “independent oversight, protections for homeowners and constraints on excessive executive compensation.”
This might be a “Good Thing” and since it’s election time, it will pass without any examination. But geez, is it too much to ask that the government setup some sort of monitoring?
So I booted my PC today when I got home today. I had intended to check e-mail before running out.
The damn thing won’t boot. I’m typing this on the kitchen laptop. It says the registry file is corrupted and I should boot off of my Vista DVD and select the repair option. Except my PC has 4 GB of RAM in it, and the DVD I have won’t boot. That particular image will only boot with 2 GB of RAM or less.
Tomorrow I’ll pop out the RAM, pop in the old 2 GB that I have laying around and fix my PC. How could Microsoft release such a unsupportable mess? This is why I need to have a dual boot option and install Ubuntu Linux. If I had an issue with Linux, I could fix it in no time at all.
Nuts.
It’s about time. If the rules say you have to be 16 years old the same year as the Olympics, then that’s it. Putting on a 14 year old is just very stupid 1950 style communist government.
