John Kerry says Military people are not educated?
Once again, looks like John Kerry is the best thing for the Republicans. Kerry insulted anyone in the United States Military by saying…
“education, if you make the most of it and you study hard, you do your homework and make an effort to be smart, you can do well. …
Obama 'Almost Speechless' Thanking Donors in Chicago
On the same day that his campaign reported they had raised roughly $745 million over the course of the campaign, President-elect Barack Obama Thursday night was nearly at a loss for words as he thanked donors for helping him win last month's election. “I’m almost speechless here, which I don’t usually get, because this is really a tapestry of our lives,” he told approximately 100 members of the Illinois and national finance committees gathered at a private Chicago club. Earlier Thursday, th
Final Official Obama Fundraising Number -- a Record-Setting $745 Million
From October 16 until November 24 (the Federal Election Commission filing period) the Obama campaign reports raising $104,124,845 from 1,124,238 contributors, in an FEC reported filed this evening. That means President-elect Obama campaign raised roughly $745 million for his 2008 presidential campaign. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., raised roughly $320 million, including the $84 million from entering into the public financing system. This does NOT include money from the DNC and RNC. When those n
Joe the Plumber and the Middle-Class Income Range
Joe the Plumber and the Middle-Class Income Range By Kristina Cowan, PayScale.com Joe Wurzelbacher is getting his 15 minutes of fame--raising questions about the middle class income range. Better known as Joe the Plumber, he stepped into the limelight earlier this month asking about Sen. Barack Obama’s tax plan.. According to a New York Times story, Wurzelbacher asked Obama if he believed in the American dream, and voiced concern about Obama’s tax plan, and having to pay higher taxes as a smal
A Perfect Present For A Portland Loon
Portland blogger Bogdanski is so obsessed with Sarah Palin that the perfect Christmas gift for the lad can only be: The Sarah Palin 2009 Wall Calendar! A personal look at Alaska's Governor Sarah Palin went from virtual obscurity to huge popularity as Presidential Candidate John McCain's running mate. Since then she has re-energized the Conservative base of the Republican Party. As a front runner in the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination, she is showing America that she is willing to r
Obama's birth certificate; you can't keep a good conspiracy theorist down
by Jay McDonough Did you know the Apollo 11 moon landings were faked by NASA? Did you know 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by the U.S. government? Did you know the government manages Area 51, where alien spacecraft and its occupants are being studied? Well, maybe you don't but many do. The believers are quite certain and absolutely dedicated to convincing the rest of us that moon landings and 9/11 were nothing more than big shams and that the rest of us are soooooo naive to believe otherw

From the Better Late Than Never Department: Saxby Chambliss wins!
I'm a little bit late reporting this but that's what happens when you get blinded by all the shock and awe of the Obama Nation. In Georgia, Republican Saxby Chambliss won the run-off election for the U.S. Senate on Tuesday. This may come as a surprise to those of you who have spent the past few weeks being steadily brainwashed by the "Everyone-Has-Embraced-The-Party-Of-Obama" drumbeat that has been coming from the mainstream media. Liberals, you may remember, hate Chambliss because he defeat
Challenge To Obama's Presidency In The Supreme Court
This is wingnuttery at its wing-nuttiness. Even most right wing blogs think this is stupid. But it is out there. I'm talking about the claim that Obama isn't qualified to be President, because he is not a U.S. citizen. Some desparate people believe it, like Shiv Zieve, who writes a column entitled "Obama Too Important For The Supreme Court": President-elect Barack Obama's refusal to produce an original and viable birth certificate indicating that he truly and indisputably is a natural bor
Keeping Up With The Jones
Let's continue my look at various cabinet and White House staff appointments by taking a look at the new national security advisor, James Jones. By all accounts Jones, a former Marine general, is fairly apolitical, although he supported John McCain in the election and has been tapped to head at least a couple studies by the Bush Administration. He has commanded NATO forces in the past and has a keen understanding of both military and diplomatic issues. By all accounts, he's a smart, committed
Karl Rove Has Figured Out Why Obama Won
This morning in the Wall Street Journal Karl Rove writes about the election...and money. Today, Barack Obama and John McCain report on just how much money they ended up spending on their race for the White House. Rove says that the numbers may show Obama outspent McCain by the biggest margin in history, perhaps, he says, by a quarter of a billion dollars. Rove writing in the WSJ: "If money talks, we'll likely soon hear the real reason why Barack Obama beat John McCain. Both men and the na

Jack Abramoff sent me
Disgraced ex-lobbyist and felon-for-life Jack Abramoff doesn't get a whole lot of good press. As in, none. And a sympathetic book about what brought him down, "The Perfect Villain: John McCain and the Demonization of Lobbyist Jack Abramoff" by ex-Boston Globe reporter Gary Chavetz seems to be in danger of sinking beneath the waves. Now, though, a federal judge is casting a spotlight on Chavetz's book, giving a helping hand for former Bush administration official David Safavian. Perhaps the
Grading Obama's Transition
Grading Obama's Transition It's been 30 days since President-elect Barack Obama was elected. And what we've seen so far is that he's managed his transition with the same kind of precision and discipline that he managed to show during the campaign. #1: Personnel and Cabinet Appointments. He's ahead of the pace of past president-elects. So far he's had eight cabinet appointments including his core economic and national security team. That outpaces President George H.W. Bush who had five
A Separate Reality: MSM Creates Alternate Reality for Obama Voters
A new poll commissioned by John Ziegler and conducted by Wilson Research Strategies confirms the results of Ziegler’s earlier Zogby commissioned poll: Obama voters live in an alternate reality created and fueled by the mainstream media (MSM). Furthermore, all of us folks that the MSM labeled as uneducated, lower class voters, primarily because we supported McCain/Palin (and cling to our guns and Bibles), had a significantly higher percentage of correct answers to the 13 survey questions:
The Latino Consumers effect on the electronic marketplace
December 5, 2008 by Jim Vandenberg The increased Latino presence has in turn affected the consumer marketplace. Higher education levels and increased expendable incomes have intensified the purchasing power of the U.S. Hispanic population. If you want Hispanic web users to find your site in the natural listings of the most popular search engines, such as Google, Yahoo! and MSN, you need to utilize specific search engine optimization strategies to drive that targeted traffic to your site.
Hey, Alaskans! Sarah Palin’s Owes Us $8720.
Another day, another ethics challenge for the Palin administration. This one involves (brace yourselves) failure to disclose free gifts on her financial disclosure forms! Does this sound familiar? If you answered “no”, I invite you to use the search feature located in the sidebar and type the words “Ted Stevens”. You’ll have enough reading material on the subject to keep you busy for a week.

Campbell Brown, Sexist Pig
Jump to Comments I learned a long time ago, writing captions for photos in magazines and newspapers, that context is everything. Even pictures can mean vastly different things, depending on context, for example, I can show you a picture of a vacant lot, overgrown with weeds and maybe some typical urban trash. And I can provide you with two captions: Urban permaculture project seeks answers to invasive species problem … or Land use regulations create headaches for developers and eyesores for the
Chambliss: "Palin Allowed Us To Peak"
From The Politico: "We had John McCain and Mike Huckabee and Gov. Romney and Rudy Giuliani, but Sarah Palin came in on the last day, did a fly-around and, man, she was dynamite. We packed the houses everywhere we went. And it really did allow us to peak and get our base fired up" I was listening to Laura Ingraham today when she was talking to Fred Barnes. Ingraham had spent most of the time talking about the lack of leaders in the GOP, the lack of a face that ca
SITREP Obama Citizenship Dec 03 08
By DemocracyRules Obama Citizenship FAQ Someone would have stopped him. Well, they didn’t’, and it’s clearly documented they didn’t. This is the first serious challenge of Presidential eligibility in US history. There was some whispering that VP Chester Arthur was born in Canada. But he was born in Vermont. Eldridge Cleaver, the Black Panther, ran for President in 1968 when he was 34. The California Secretary of State kept Cleaver off the California ballot. Historically, eligibility
