A Roadie for the Rock Star

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Depending on which McCain ad you see, Johnny Walnuts thinks Obama is either a rock star or Charlton Heston wannabee. As the ads correctly assert, the O-Man can fire up a crowd and get them thinking seditiously about hope and change. However, McCain seems to think the ability to talk ...

Way Over Inflated

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

John McCain is an idiot. He mocks that which is true and adores that which is not. John McCain is an idiot. And a liar. And he isn't any better than Bush. John McCain is an idiot. A vote for John McCain is a vote for stupidity squared. Did I ...

The Messiah and His Disciples

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

There are few things the Bush administration has done well except keep "the bubble" intact. No news in, no news out, give the Big Guy plenty of quasi-plausible deniability. It wasn't until well into his second term that leaks appeared, but when you run that many scams it's inevitable that ...

Walmart Is Hiring Islamic Extremists

Friday, August 1st, 2008

East Asshat, AR - Walmart executives were accused today of trying to pressure their workers to vote Republican in the fall. In one meeting, a Walmart executive reportedly said, "I am not telling you how to vote, but if the Democrats win, this bill will pass and you won't have ...

“Race” For The White House: Who’s Driving The Straight Talk Express?

Friday, August 1st, 2008

I suspect that John McCain is no longer the driver of the straight-talk express. I say as much in light of two developments. One, in the last few weeks, the McCain campaign has been retooled with a number of former Bush campaign operatives...operatives who cut their teeth under the tutelage ...

McCain: Looking for POTUS in All the Wrong Places

Friday, August 1st, 2008

I have pretty low expectations of a Presidential campaign. If I didn't, I'd never vote. So it's pretty astounding when a candidate can break through the glass floor of my dramatically reduced expectations. This week, John McCain took a jackhammer to my E3 glass. Negative campaigning is nothing new, but it's ...

Is This Race All About The Race?

Sunday, July 27th, 2008

There is a perception that Barack Obama exudes a degree of hubris that may be viewed negatively by a number of voters. The unasked question is whether this impression has its origin in the fact that Barack Obama is actually an over confident candidate or simply a candidate who exceeds ...

It Only Matters Who Has the Best Line of Shite

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

Not long ago - while Clinton and Obama were engaged in their fight-to-the death cage match - John McCain gloried in the reflected glow of the media. He gave them unprecedented access and asked the boys on the bus over for a little BBQ and beer to seal the deal. ...

McCain’s Tiff With the Media Elite

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

John McCain can't catch a break from the New York Times these days. The Times rejected his recent equal time op-ed piece in response to an Obama piece run last week. There's nothing particular noteworthy about that, media outlets rejecting equal time requests are common now that the old mandatory ...

James Dobson Speaks - “Look At Me, Look At Me!”

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Having to jump up and down for attention must be pure torture for James Dobson. Faced with the prospect of being irrelevant in the 2008 election has led the leader of Focus on the Family to announce that he may rescind his prior refusal to vote for John McCain. In the ...
