Obama: A Declaration of Adulthood

Most marathon runners will tell you that, around mile 22 or 23, they hit a wall. They reach that point where they simply want to stop, both physically and mentally. It’s an overwhelming feeling and even the hardiest runners have trouble getting through it, no matter how prepared they are.
For the record, it’s going to [...]

A Centrist Vote for Obama

A letter from John Reisman, founder of the Centrist Party:
As founder of the Centrist Party, I can only speak for myself as an
individual. Maybe this is representative of the Centrist point of view
for some, but certainly not all. I don’t know how much it matters, but I
wanted to share why I am voting for Barack [...]

Did Karl Rove Hack MoveOn.org?

No, Karl Rove did not hack in to MoveOn.org and use their mail list to send out an ‘anti-Obama’ email. It was actually a clever ruse by the folks at MoveOn to get the attention of their subscribers; and it worked on me. I’m a little slow…
Here’s the letter:
Dear MoveOn member,
Time to relax!
Obama is way [...]

Ayers Still in the Air

Despite clearly stating in the third Presidential debate last night that he “didn’t care about some washed-up domestic terrorist from 40 years ago,” John McCain certainly seems to want a lot of people to know some vague, misleading statements about Ayers and *gasp* Obama. His campaign has started a massive robo-call campaign in a plethora [...]

Betty White Continues to Be Awesome

I stood up and clapped during this one. How can you not love a older woman who speaks her mind and has a great sense of humor?
Have a good weekend, everybody!

2008 Presidential Debate Round 2

So apparently this whole election thing is still going to happen, despite no one entirely being certain if we’ll still be a country a month from now. As such, it’s time for debate number two or three or fifteen or whatever the hell of the 2008 Presidential Election. Come along with us, the Sod nation, [...]

Grampa McCain… are you an Elitist?

Grampa McCain... are you an Elitist?

John McCain, national hero and second-most famous person over 90 (keep on truckin, Wilford Brimley!) is also a moron. Prior to the current campaign strategy of calling Obama a ‘celebrity,’ the McCain MO was to paint Barack as an elitist. Well looky what I found:
WASHINGTON – Days after he cracked that being rich in the [...]



Shirtless at the Beach? My stars!

Shirtless at the Beach? My stars!

In what has to be the stupidest attack on anyone, ever, the McCain campaign has gone after Barack Obama for taking his shirt off and bodysurfing WHILE ON VACATION IN HAWAI’I.
To quote the campaign’s attack: “You know you may just be a global celebrity when you get this headline in Reuters, “Obama Takes Shirt Off [...]
