LIBERALS ARE SO TOLERANT
There is this myth that liberals and Democrats are diverse, tolerant, and very kind people who are willing to accept different ideas. They love minorities. Liberals are a safe haven for women. They aren't bigots. They love all cultures. Liberals would never do or say anything that would bring grief to another person, group of people, minority, or entity. That would not be enlightened. A myth is a sacred story that, according to the definition, becomes "true" in the eyes of the believer.

The Sarah Palin Story (sort of)

HOW IT HAPPENED
Early last August I received an email from Steve Maloney, who blogs at Campaign2008VictoryA Steve Maloney GOP. Steve wanted to know if I'd heard of Sarah Palin, the Governor of Alaska. I had not. Steve was working with Adam Brickley of the now "world famous" Draft Sarah Palin for VP. They needed someone to do an article or two and help promote Sarah Palin as VP. Would I be interested.
At that time Adam and Steve were THE ONLY people who were promoting Sarah Palin. Don't fall for any of the bandwagon now. They were ... more »

"...."Tonight, Americans witnessed a misleading speech that was so fundamentally at odds with the meager record of Barack Obama. When the temple comes down, the fireworks end, and the words are over, the facts remain: Senator Obama still has no record of bipartisanship, still opposes offshore drilling, still voted to raise taxes on those making just $42,000 per year, and still voted against funds for American troops in harm's way. The fact remains: Barack Obama is still not ready to be President."..."

SIGN OF THINGS TO COME?
There have been rumors of threats and intimidation against Hillary supporters by the Obamans for some months. A few weeks ago we were warned that anyone donating to GOP and conservative sources could be subjected to intense personal scrutiny. In other words, anyone who dares to donate could basically be subjected to blackmail or prosecution - stop contributing OR ELSE! All this reeks of something a bit unsettling. Then, something occurred last night that was a bit chilling if you consider it as organized Democratic intimidation of a writer and the First Amendment. On ... more »

(WHAT’Z NEW?)
Obnoxious 9/11 Truther Alex Jones got the best of Michelle Malkin. He is a loud, vile individual, who reminds me of a cur dog who needs to have its barker removed. This said, Mz Malkin, in search of a headline and a story, became the story, her little self when Jones and his tawdry bunch of associates recognized her. As much as I dislike Michelle Malkin and thing that some of Jones’ accusations had a ring of truth about them, no one, needs to be treated the way she was.

COLOR NEW MEXICO RED!
The Pink Flamingo has been repeatedly telling you that there is a good chance John McCain is ahead in New Mexico. The latest Mason-Dixon numbers are just in. It's just 45%-41% but I'll take it! This poll, taken last week, dealing with the west ( AZ, NM, CO, NV, UT, WY) has McCain ahead everywhere but Colorado. More recent Colorado numbers are looking good. Joe Monahan thinks Biden is going to help Obama in NM's rural areas, but I'm just not seeing that.

SCARLET O’HARA OBAMA
(cue the music)
Any normal human being, on the eve of his/her coronation (and I am using the term facetiously) as the nominee of any major political party, be it Democrat or Republican should be on an emotional high that last weekend before their convention. When a person is an egomaniacal headline-hog who envisions himself as the second coming of the second coming and is seriously having poll problems, it must be a very frustrating time, which is illustrated by the proverbial throwing of the kitchen sink. more »

Do you really want a Republican President who is so beholdin' to special interests and so weak, when ultra conservatives wave their little pinkie he jumps in terror? Evidently this is what the likes of Malkin, Ingraham, Limbaugh, and the little tyrannical twits of the right want from John McCain. Joseph Farrah of World Net Daily has gone so far with his little temper tantrum as to commission a poll about it. If you look at the poll, it is amazing how unfairly Farrah plays to prove his nasty little point, but then no ... more »

SARAH PALIN FOR VP!
This morning while I was getting dressed for church (yes, I went and yes, I was on time - for once) I was listening to FOX. Bill Krystol was on, discussing the VP game. I was very disappointed to hear that Palin was not on "The Top Four". Then Krystol said something interesting. He was hearing that there is a super secret bombshell possibility, and he figured it was Giuliani. I'd be extremely happy with Giuliani. More than once I've mentioned that McCain-Giuliani would be my idea of the Dream Team. Giuliani is my 2nd choice. ... more »

"...I had to share something with you. Can you imagine living in a place where birth control is considered an "abortion" and health insurers won't cover it? Where even rape victims are denied emergency contraception? It seems unbelievable, but the Bush Administration is quietly trying to redefine "abortion" to include birth control. The Houston Chronicle says this could wipe out dozens of state laws that protect women's reproductive freedom and protect rape victims. And this proposed "rule change" doesn't need congressional approval. I just signed a message ... more »

Quite a bit has been made these past few days about "Obamacons" and how many of them there are. For awhile I've been working with a source, a fascinating source. I know this person is frustrated with the slow pace of things, and wants to contribute something to the 'cause'. I've been honored to learn her political background which goes back nearly 50 years. She is a 'real' pro. Right now that's all I can say. Last night she sent an email to me, asking if I would circulate some information. I sent the email to two ... more »

John McCain is cleaning his clock in the campaign ad department. Obama is now playing catch-up and is starting to look and sound like the spoiled, snot of an incompetent brat that he really is. Let's be honest about something else, it is beoming more and more apparent Obama is being proped by the MSM to the point where even Dem's don't particularily like ... more »

DEMOCRATS AND THEIR MOTHERS
Today in the Star Bulletin there is this fawning, gushing coverage of Barack Obama "coming home". He "wowed" them at Oahu. And, then there are the strong women of his life. It is quite obvious he was raised by a strong grandmother, a Marxist mother who had the morals Mommy Cat. (It's Sunday so I'm sermonizing). It is also rather obvious he had a grandfather who treated his grandmother like dirt.
"...At his homecoming rally Friday, Barack Obama paid tribute to his late mother, a single mom who sacrificed to ensure he received the best education. ... more »

The Steve Cohen Lesson as GOP 1st Amendment Rights Threatened
by
SJ Reidhead
on August 8, 2008 01:58PM (MDT)
COHEN WINS BIG
Yesterday Steve Cohen (who lives down the block from my sister) took out Nikki Tinker by something like 75%. If you recall, Tinker reeked of desperation to the point where she resorted to race baiting and anti-Semitism, going down in flames. Is there a lesson here? Is it possible that the American People are finally "Getting it"? If so Cohen's victory has terrifying implications for Barack Obama. If Cohen could defeat the politics of abject racism in Memphis, is it possible the days of playing the race card are over?Granted Barack Obama came out and, as ... more »

So we tap the strategic oil reserve. Once the oil is doled out on a socialistic basics, it must be replaced. What part of this doesn't Barack Obama comprehend? Or does he comprehend it and just doesn't care. He wants to take from the rich (oil profits) and give to the poor (average American families). The socialist that Obama is, he wants to take from the rich and redistribute the money. Sure, it's all to lower the price of oil, but wait a minute...

UPDATED: The blog, Space Politics has breaking news about the possibility of a coming Dem platform fight over NASA.
"...Is there a “potential fracture in the Democratic party over space”? That’s the claim of a piece published last week by the newspaper chain Examiner.com by Patricia Phillips, a “former NASA information officer”. One one side, she claims, are people like Sen. Bill Nelson, who she perceives as strong supporters of NASA, and on the other presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, “who’s widely regarded as anti-space, despite this weeks’s Google spin.” (Google spin?) She argues a ... more »

Here is a copy of the Steve Cohen - KKK ad that has allegedly been removed from YouTube. I don't know how long it will be up. Tinker has removed it from her site. This is par for the course with Tinker who has been hitting Cohen with a barrage of anti-Semitism for months. The most tragic aspect of this? Cohen has endorsed Barack Obama who refuses to come to his defense, saying it is just a primary. Obama is now the head of the Demoratic Party.

PAGING DR. GINGRICH
Wouldn't it be interesting if the GOP members of Congress have tapped into something with their protest against Nancy Pelosi? The latest Gallup numbers show there is a window, just a small one, but there is a window of opportunity to make some inroads in the House this year. I think the American people want to see a little bit of courage. And, like Medved pointed out yesterday on his show, they don't like to vote for "angry" people. If they can keep their heads....
