Dear President Obama: A Modest Medicare Proposal Dear President Obama, I understand you’re thinking of dumping your “public option” because of all the demagoguery by Sarah Palin and Dick Armey and Newt Gingrich and their crowd on right-wing radio and Fox. Fine. Good [...]
Article by missy on October 27th, 2008 at 3:46 pm And Sarah Palin is their poster girl: Federal agents have broken up a plot by two neo-Nazi skinheads to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 102 black people, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives said Monday. In court records unsealed Monday in U.S. District Court in Jackson, Tenn., federal agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun store and target [...]
Article by John on October 22nd, 2008 at 6:54 am Politico is reporting that the RNC paid for the Alaska Disasta’s $150,000 wardrobe since August. This is raising legal questions as normally items that are personal in nature cannot be purchased with campaign funds. Seems to me that since Cindy McCain grossed over $4.1 million last year (and over $6 million in 2006), John should have asked her to pick up this minor expenditure. After all [...]
Article by John on October 15th, 2008 at 10:31 am John Cleese of Monty Python’s Flying Circus says he used to think “Michael Palin was the funniest Palin”: For those of you who do not know Michael Palin, here is Michael Palin for President: var wordpress_toolbar_urls = ["http:\/\/reblog.zemanta.com\/zemified\/93e3a518-e627-40f1-ba78-fb8266999c08\/"];var wordpress_toolbar_url = “http://www.democracyforvancouver.org/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-toolbar/toolbar.php”;var wordpress_toolbar_oinw = “oinw”;var wordpress_toolbar_hash = “aHR0cDovL3d3dy5kZW1vY3JhY3lmb3J2YW5jb3V2ZXIub3JnL2VsZWN0aW9ucy8yMDA4LWVsZWN0aW9uL2pvaG4tY2xlZXNlLXNhcmFoLXBhbGluLzx3cHRiPkNsZWVzZSBvbiBQYWxpbiwgUGFsaW4gZm9yIFByZXNpZGVudDx3cHRiPmh0dHA6Ly93d3cuZGVtb2NyYWN5Zm9ydmFuY291dmVyLm9yZzx3cHRiPkRlbW9jcmFjeSBmb3IgVmFuY291dmVy”;
Article by missy on October 15th, 2008 at 10:05 am I’d very much like to give him a piece of my mind. I was born on Long Island, just a few train stops from Hofstra University. If all you know of Long Island comes from F. Scott Fitzgerald (or Paris Hilton), that strip of expensive real estate may seem like a giant McMansion tract. But when I was born in Garden City in 1965, Long [...]
Article by missy on October 7th, 2008 at 11:00 am if he ever was, McCain has become Richard III, Iago and Macbeth rolled into one. He is the scheming, lame and eternally bitter Richard of Gloucester, needing to kill all goodness around him so as to never face that contrast to his black soul, and needing war, too, as peace gives him nowhere to put his rage: But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks,
Nor made [...]
Article by John on October 3rd, 2008 at 6:38 am Here is the best “straight talk” that came out of the debate. I doubt we will hear the hockey mom talk much or even see much of her anymore.
