Debate #3 – The Candidates Speak To Joe The Plumber

October 16, 2008

If any of you read my last post, called A Deficit Disorder, you probably know my feelings regarding our federal government's economic policies range somewhere between cynical and disgusted. Lately, with mob boss Hugo Chavez Hank Paulson running the Treasury like Don Corleone, making the big banks an offer they can't refuse to force a [...]

A Deficit Disorder

October 15, 2008

I'm sick and tired of hearing our D.C. politicians talking about when it's "okay" to run federal deficits. They all come up with some excuse to do it, or if they pretend to address the issue, they come up with some 5-10 year plan to balance the budget the year AFTER their presidential term ends. [...]

Hey Dems, Are These Racial Code Words Too ?

October 12, 2008

As I mentioned in my last post, some Democrats are seeing all kinds of imaginary racial codespeak in the words of John McCain and Sarah Palin. So I have to ask those same Democrats, are the following words from Barack Obama an example of that same racial codespeak ? And if not, why not ? [...]

When All Else Fails, Just Call The GOP Racist

October 10, 2008

When Democrat Barney Frank started taking some heat (though not nearly enough yet) for being one of the prime enablers of the mortgage crisis by sinking any regulation of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and by pushing banks to eliminate loan standards in order to increase home ownership, Mr. Frank found the true culprits. It [...]

Debate #2 – The Townhall Meeting That Wasn't

October 8, 2008

Senators Barack Obama and John McCain hooked up for another presidential debate last night in Tennessee. This one was moderated by liberal Democrat Tom Brokaw from the pro-Obama network NBC, in contrast to the first debate, which was moderated by liberal Democrat Gwen Ifill from the pro-Obama network PBS. At least Brokaw isn't writing a [...]

The Candy Man Can

October 7, 2008

I was sitting around the cave last night, wondering 'What is it that some people see in Barack Obama that I don't see ?' Why don't I get that tingle up my leg when Obama speaks ? Why can't I see that he is The Messiah, The One, The Once And Future King ? With [...]

A Bush Third Term

October 6, 2008

I write this post as a warning to all American voters. There is a presidential candidate who promises to continue the failed policies of president George W. Bush. No, it isn't the old guy, and it isn't the governor of the igloo either. It's the Democratic nominee, Barack Obama. Obama promises to give tax cuts [...]

The Sarah Palin Show

October 4, 2008

I heard yesterday that the Nielsen ratings for the Palin-Biden VP debate were 40% higher than for the first McCain-Obama presidential debate. A transcript of the debate can be found here. And the audience wasn't tuning in to see Joe Biden. The VP debate was all about Sarah Palin. Democrats were eagerly tuning in to [...]

Bill Clinton Blames Dems For Mortgage Crisis

October 1, 2008

The Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, Chris Dodd (D-CT), has NO idea how the mortgage crisis happened. I repeat, he is the CHAIRMAN OF THE SENATE BANKING COMMITTEE !!! Dodd says, "American taxpayers are angry and they demand to know how we arrived at this moment." Well, Mr. Dodd, as CHAIRMAN OF THE SENATE [...]

The Joe Biden Experience

September 24, 2008

The media's obsession with John McCain's VP nominee, Sarah Palin, is matched only by it's total lack of curiosity regarding Obama's VP pick, Hillary Clinton Joe Biden. In one short month, America has become intimately acquainted with Palin's entire life history, including, at last count, about 125 phony smears. If you want to know what [...]

I Got The Bailout Blues

September 20, 2008

Hey America, how do you like your brand new insurance company, AIG ? We bought an 80% stake in that company for the bargain price of $85 billion. How about your nifty new mortgage companies, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ? They've been nationalized. They belong to all of us now. Who knew this was [...]

Obama On Those Failed Bush-McCain Economic Policies

September 19, 2008

Barack Obama refers to "failed Bush-McCain policies" so often that I think he may have a kind of Bush Tourette's Syndrome. No matter what the issue is, Obama blames Bush and his separated-at-birth twin brother John McCain. Yesterday's e-mail from the Obama campaign was no different: For eight years, Bush-McCain economic policies have favored reckless [...]
