Contrasts - John McCain, American Hero, Barack Obama, American Ego

A TALE OF TWO MEN"...I was finding that prayer helped. It wasn't a question of asking for superhuman strength or for God to strike the North Vietnamese dead. It was asking for moral and physical courage, for guidance and wisdom to do the right thing. I asked for comfort when I was in pain, and sometimes I received relief. I was sustained in many times of trial...."John McCain When the election season begins, we all wonder who is going to come out on top.

OBAMA OR MCCAIN?
If you don't think there is a difference, well, there is. If you are thinking about voting for one of those twitty third parties with spoilers like Bob Barr or Chuck Baldwin, maybe you'd better think again. Jim Fryer at Real World Libertarian posted this. I pilfered it from him.

OBAMA & NASCAR
Praise the Lord!
First - God Bless Sister Toldjah! Now, I needed the laugh. It wasn't just a laugh, it was maniacal giggle.  God Bless The Democrats. They do it every time. Is it genetic or are their candidates so flawed they just can't help it? Bless Sister Toldjah who has come up with the story that Barack Obama is planning to sponser a NASCAR vehicle? Please, Please, Please let it be true. (Sorry, I gotta giggle again). Let's face it, we all thought he'd learned his lesson when he bowled a 38 with his ... more »

McCain's Millions - Money Money Money Moonneeyyy!

WHERE'S OBAMA?
Today we have learned that during the month of June, John McCain has finally hit the mother lode when it comes to fundraising. He had a $22 Million Dollar June! When you add the funds the RNC has on hand, it's not looking all that bad. According to Outside the Beltway the RNC has something like $95 million cash on hand compared to the DNC's $10 million or so. James Joyner then noted the following:"...It’s a very bizarre strategy on Davis’ part to be bragging about McCain’s fundraising and ability to spend money. Wouldn’t they be ... more »

THE OLDEST PROFESSION
Today I stopped off at the bank to do the usual after a week out of town. I noticed that the girls working behind the counter were dressed in a manner that reflected more a ‘Friday’ casual look than banking Tuesday. If their attire was ‘serious’ banking, then I am afraid to see what ‘Casual Friday’ might entail. It reminded me of several things. First, are we going to you know what in a hand-basket because of our sloppy dress? Second, is it any indication of a lapse in societal manners, morals, and customs?
I was waxing ... more »

SOME CONSERVATIVES JUST DON'T GET IT
REPUBLICANSWhen I hear conservatives wax poetic against John McCain, and some conservatives who swear up and down they are anti-abortion and yet plan to vote for Barack Obama (I'm related to at least one) I mention two words: Stevens & Ginsburg. If they aren't bright enough to figure out to whom I am referring, then there isn't much hope and they are true, clueless Barack Obama voters.
But - then there are the conservatives who do get it and are still determined to do everything in their power to insure ... more »

Obama Stalled On Runway
by

NOT THE BRIGHTEST BULB
We've all joked about Barack Obama being an empty shirt. I never realized how empty and how abjectly un "bright" until this morning. He is stalled on the runway in St. Louis while his campaign is being repaired.
What's wrong with this picture?
If this is such a powerful man, ready to take over as POTUS why the H-E-double-toothpick hasn't he grabbed a phone, started shouting orders and arranged for a quickie flight out of St. Louis. If Obama has all the money in the world to campaign with why not rent a couple of private ... more »

Buzz Aldrin, NASA, Mars & Our Future

INVEST IN NASA
Buzz Aldrin is right. If we don't invest in NASA, the Chinese are going to beat us to the Moon and to Mars. Space is our future. As usual, we are piddling it away, to pinch pennies. I am terrified if Barack Obama is elected it is going to be more of the same - just dump the space program and put everything in welfare programs.
The UK Telegraph"... Mr Aldrin revealed that he intends to lobby Barack Obama and John McCain, the two US presidential candidates, in an effort to ensure they find sufficient funds ... more »

When Did FOX News Turn Liberal?
by

WHAT IS WRONG WITH FOX?
Have you noticed a (not so) subtle change in FOX News lately? If CNN was once the “Clinton News Network” perhaps FOX should now be dubbed the Obama News Network. While I’ve been staying at the Larian (the best place to stay in Tombstone) I’ve been stuck with MSNBC and CNN. I’ve been picking FOX up on my blasted XM (I hate that thing). It is rather remarkable. I am beginning to think that John McCain is getting better coverage and more equal time on CNN.

FRANTIC FUND-RAISING
Remember in May, Barack Obama only raised 22 million, his weakest showing to date. June’s numbers are not in yet, but if the frantic fundraising pace is any indicator, June may not be all that good either. Meanwhile, the Dems are crying fowl (intended spelling) over a new loop-hole the GOP has found to raise more money. While there is all this weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth by the Dems and their MSM supporters, maybe they should remember how Obama cheated by going back on his word about federal funds. This is politics, and all is ... more »

Tombstone, Wyatt Earp & America
by

on July 4, 2008 11:14PM (MDT)
FRIDAY, JULY 4
Tombstone is America in microcosm. In order to understand the heart and soul of America you need to understand two things baseball and Tombstone. More than a mining town, dirty and small minded, Tombstone is a symbol. It is America's version of Camelot. Wyatt Earp is our King Arthur. If the characters and storyline of Tombstone had not existed America would have invented it.
Wyatt Earp, age 79, 1928

NATIONAL SERVICE FOR
ALL
I'd
not paid much attention to Barack Obama's July 2 speech on national
service until I listened to Michael
Medved this evening. I highly INSIST that you listen to the
first half hour of his show today. It
is chilling. If you weren't planning on voting for John
McCain before, this will make you do so. Medved mentioned
something that was not in Obama's prepared text: He is
planning a civilian security force to augment the military.
Can you say Gestapo? His plans for national service are
terrifying. This man basically wants to take over ... more »

BARACK'S LITTLE FRIENDS
Like I said last night, it's a cheap shot, but it's a fun one. We all need a few cheap thrills these days and I'm no exception. Have you noticed that no one's brought up the following:Barack Obama + Bill Ayers + Hugo Chavez (+/- Chavez's FARC connection)From Little Green Footballs:"...Obama hasn’t said a whole lot about Colombia other than to criticize President Bush’s good relations with President Uribe. With this correspondence suggesting that FARC knows what he thinks, maybe the American voters have a right to know what he thinks, too. Five questions ... more »

Obama’s Marxist Friends & FARC
by
SJ Reidhead
on July 2, 2008 10:58PM (MDT)
OKAY, IT’S A CHEAP SHOT
It may be a heap shot, but it’s such a good cheap shot I can’t resist it. What do these things have in common:
Hugo Chavez
Bill Ayers
FARC
Well, they are Barack Obama’s little Marxist friends, who are getting thrown under the bus in the Obamassiah’s attempt to become more moderate than John McCain. Fact is, it makes the piece that circulated today about John McCain roughing up a Sandinista all the more fascinating. Big Lizards has more on the story.
"...President Reagan had a long-term plan to drive the Sandinistas out of power; ... more »

DON'T TREAD ON ME?
This Week’s “Subliminal Smear” – McCain’s Experience - via the military.
STOP SMEARING BIG MAC
Are you as angry as I am? I know politics is politics, but when is enough enough? Today at lunch, I was in tears as I thought about the mistreatment of John McCain, not at the hands of the communists, but at the hands of the Democrats. It wasn’t because I am a supporter of Senator McCain, but because of the past. I was a teenager when those images of the POWs returning home filtered in (black and white) to the ... more »

FASTEN YOUR SEAT-BELTS
We could be in for a bumpy ride. Larry Sinclair has provided his phone records - and strangely enough, they point Sinclair, not Barack Obama, telling the truth. From Obama Who?"...“A newly released CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll found that if Obama does not select Clinton as his running mate, 22 percent of her supporters would stay home this fall (almost 4 million voters) — and another 17 percent (a little over 3 million) would vote for McCain.” –CNN (parentheses are mine). So, if we use 2004 as the baseline - GWB won with 62 million voters ... more »
