Sarah, The Fashion Plate

If the Sarah "The VP Runs the Senate" Palan gets nothing else out of her candidacy, it appears she will go home with a new $150,000 wardrobe. September's Republican National Committee financial disclosures report shopping sprees to such high dollar stores as Sachs Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus for "itemized coordinated expenditures" There was even $295 spent at a children's store for the baby. Kind of makes a $400 haircut seem cheap. I guess camos and combat boots aren't suitable for the campaign trail.

It is already clear that the Alaskan Bimbo took the state of Alaska for tens of thousands in travel funds for her family. Our Governor Sonny in Georgia is crooked, but even he wouldn't try to get away with that. He actually tried it once, when he allowed his son to take a state helicopter to a football game, but he got caught. I digress. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the Bimbo was given an inch and she took a mile, coming out with clothes that you and I could never afford. Do you think she will have to return them, if she and Johnny Zig Zag lose?

The Bimbo and Her Redneck Friends at the Pool

I simply had to comment on this picture. It is so representative of this woman. Are they hunting at the pool? The guy sitting in the background also has a rifle. It couldn't be ducks, because you don't hunt ducks with a rifle. So are they just plunking in the backyard or what? Notice where her finger is located. Any gun safety expert will tell you that you don't put your finger on the trigger until it is time to shoot. I don't want to be around this crowd when they have guns in their hands.

Finally, can you say redneck? Check out the charmer with the cigarette. That's a Schlitz beer in his hand. I wonder how many the nubile Sarah had soaked up. Need I say more?

Christian Values and McPalin

I am so tired of getting these emails spouting how Obama and the Democrats don't reflect "our" Christian values, whatever they are, because none of these emails give any details. These people are, of course, insinuating that McCain does reflect these nebulous "values." I just want someone to tell me how John Sidney McCain reflects these "values." Please.

Do these "values" include cheating on your sick wife with a rich bimbo, then divorcing her to marry the bimbo? Do they include "cussing like a sailor?" Do they include poor sportsmanship and inciting crowds to the point that they yell "kill him" and "terrorist?" Do they include your teenage daughter, who ends up unmarried and pregnant because you haven't been a good parent and taught her about the "Christian values" that you espouse? Do they include backstabbing those who disagree with you, so that you retain absolute power? Do they include flat out lying on a regular basis?

What are those "values?" I want to know, because I can't find many virtues in McCain/Palin. In fact I can't see how you can base your choice of candidates on "Christian values." Most politicians didn't get where they are by telling the truth. They lie on an almost daily basis. They stab anyone in the back, even their friends, if it means staying on top. Don't tell me these are "Christian values." Just show me how you can base your choice on these "Christian values."


Update:

I kind of thought so. You simply can't explain yourself, when you talk about "Christian Values" and McCain/Palin. I am waiting to see how many responses I get from these "Voting Christian Values" emails that I responded to. My guess? None. There is no response, except for another "Christian" lie.

Should We Be Concerned for Obama's Safety?

The Alaskan Bimbo has been on the attack, questioning Obama's relationship with an aging, reformed 60's revolutionary. It is a huge stretch to even pose the question, but when a vicious animal is cornered it will do anything to try to survive. As this egotistical, ill mouthed, re-incarnation of Barbie continues to repeat her unfounded attacks, along with her bad-tempered mentor, their supporters have become more restless and mean spirited.

Videos of the rallies pick up responses to McCain and the Bimbo's attacks. In the background supporters are heard yelling, "kill him" and "terrorist." If these people are unstable enough to believe the lies, is there someone listening to their inciteful talk, who is at this moment constructing a bomb or cleaning an assault rifle in preparation for an assassination attempt? I think there is more than a 90% possibility that planning is underway.

In this country at the moment there are so many radical Christians, who hate Muslims and who believe the insinuations about Obama's Muslim connections, there very well could be a member of God's Army ready to do battle. There are many white supremacist groups that will not tolerate an African American president and are ready to ensure that this doesn't happen. Most of these people consider themselves Republican. Since, their leaders are pushing them toward the brink and not calling anyone to task for the comments, but, instead, continuing to encourage bad behavior, I will not be surprised if there is an attempt on Obama and his family's lives. I don't think they will just go for him. They will try for the entire family to send a message.

If, indeed, something does happen and let's pray that it doesn't, McCain and the Bimbo will have to take some of the blame. They would not be directly responsible, but they have done nothing but encourage anger with their lies and boorish behavior. Nothing has been said to curb the mob environment we are seeing at their rallies.

Tonight in the debate, McCain showed his cowardly side. He and the Bimbo can call Obama names and make broad insinuations about his character and his background, but he is unwilling to look Obama in the face and say those things. I must say that Obama is quite the consummate professional, who was willing to stand on stage with this low-life individual and actually be civil. I could not do that.

Let us hope that I am a wild-eyed pessimist, who is so far out in left field that I can't see home plate. Maybe I making the proverbial mountain out of a mole hill, but I will be very scared for Obama and his family over the next few weeks and into his presidency. Let us hope that the Secret Service is investigating, and I heard tonight that they are taking these overheard comments very seriously. I just hope that they are giving the Obama's the kind of security that they need. On the other hand, I hope that McCain is getting it as well. There are dangerous people on both sides, and the incendiary behavior of McCain and the Bimbo can do some bad things to the unstable minds in the Obama camp as well. Unfortunately, McPalin isn't taking that side very seriously.

Hypocrites Karl Rove, Bill O'Reilly, and Dick Morris

This video says it all. The Republicans can't have it both ways. Their Sarah Palin spin is so hypocritical. Somehow, they seem to always get away with it, because they blame the "liberal" press. Exactly how, the "liberal" press slants comments such as those in this video is beyond me.

Tom Ridge's Freudian slip says it all. McCain spent a big part of his speech last night trying to distance himself from the Bush Regime, but, given his record and his current campaign, he failed miserably. He is completely intertwined with Bush, voting with him, supporting his invasion, and receiving hugs and kisses from him.

The issue is not Sarah Palin and her outward good looks and folksy ways. It's not McCain's attempt to turn Obama's "change" theme to his own as an "outsider" and "maverick." It is the fact that McCain is a clone of Bush, who would continue the archaic agenda of the Bush Regime, with a Cheney-like Palin at his side. Palin, convinced as are most fundamentalists, that God is only on her side and everything she does is God's will, would be worse than Cheney has ever been.

No, John (Bush) McCain, you are not change. You are a continuation of Bush's failed policies, his unnecessary war, and his continual trouncing of the Constitution. You and your "cute" VP are not the answer to this country's problems. You are simply seed for taking this country farther away from the values the founding fathers tried to put in place for us, and which the Bush Regime with your help, has tried to destroy.

"Hallelujah, We Shall Rise."

The Republicans have managed to shoot themselves in the foot once again. Fortunately, I guess, for them, they never seem to limp afterward. I guess it is because so many of the faithful are such hypocrites. They rant, rave, and rail about morality, then throw it all to the wind when one of their own fails to live up.

Gov. Palin's current revelation is a case in point. Apparently, the McCain campaign never "vetted" the good Governor. According to leading Alaskans, Democrat, Republican, or otherwise, no one discussed the Governor with any of them. This all grew out of a necessity. Sources in the know point out that McCain wanted either Liberman or Ridge, both pro-choice proponents. This wouldn't do with the Republican faithful, so a "pro-family, anti-sex education/pro-abstinence only" candidate was chosen. Even as I write this, the McCain campaign is in Alaska, "vetting" their candidate.

Suddenly, out of the blue, the Governor announced that her 17 year old unmarried daughter is pregnant. Palin is so proud of her daughter for "deciding to have the baby" and to marry the father. I guess so. If the child's mother is so anti-abortion that she would force her daughter to have the child of a rapist, I doubt that there would be any choice in the matter. As for the father, I wonder how long the shotgun was held to his head before he said yes.

Now the "pro-family" (defined as mothers should be seen, not heard, and always at home with their children, not out doing non-mother-like things such as being VP.) Republican faithful, including the fundamentalist pastors, who usually rail against unwed mothers and mothers working outside the home, are surrounding the Gov. with "love." Of course it is perfectly normal for this to happen to one of their own, and they are completely OK with it.

Apparently, the Gov. also has a few other skeletons in her closet of which the faithful weren't aware, blinded as they were by her extremist, anti-abortion views. She has a case pending over the possible unlawful dismissal of an Alaskan state trooper. Then there is the case of the "other" baby. It seems that no one, even some close to her at work, knew that she was pregnant a few months back. This after her having four children. Suddenly, she announced that she had a baby. The baby may well we hers, but now, given, the latest bombshell, one has to wonder. Finally, there is her husband who has been registered as a member of the American Independence Party, an extremist group which, among other things, advocates the return of all Alaskan federal land back to the state.

Will all of these questions affect Palin's nomination? Of course not. The old double standard will apply. It is OK if it happens to you, but not if it happens to someone else. Then there is the case of the "American Way." Presently, unmarried mothers are more the norm than not. So many Americans have accepted this phenomenon as a way of life, that they would vote for the Gov., simply because she is now one of them. Certainly her extremist views are so acceptable to the fundamentalist faithful, that they will easily overlook any "minor" shortcomings. In short, they have their candidate now. God is in his heaven, and all is right with the world. To quote a popular gospel song, "Hallelujah, we shall rise."
