Have a read of John Brummett’s comment on the 2008 Presidential race and the pundits predicting the outcomes. In a nutshell, no one knows who the hell is going to end up as the candidate for either party. It is all up in the air this year. Brummett explains why no one knows. This uncertainty [...]

Return of the veggie fascists
Grrrrrrrrr my blood is boiling as I read this article on why even ‘humane’ meat is not humane because we’re killing animals unnecessarily, blah blah blah. Needless to say this woman is a director for PETA. You can raise animals in better conditions, remove the drugs from their food and slap organic or free-range labels [...]
Oh…dear…God…save…us
Mike Huckabee’s own political song. I dare you to make it more than 30 seconds. I listened to the whole thing and my ears are bleeding. They’ve also got their own website stuckonhuck.com. It’s appalling, it really and truly is. Oh, and note to the authors of this little ditty: you mis-spelled y’all (not ya’ll; [...]
Whew, it’s almost over…
For those who still reside within the United States who may or may not like our current President, you may have heard statements like ‘why does everyone hate us’ and ‘the first thing the next President needs to do is mend our reputation abroad.’ Whether or not you believe it is another matter, but trust [...]
Why?
Why do they always put such horrible pictures of Hillary Clinton in the news?
This thing just blew wide open folks!
I love Presidential primary seasons like this one, where you honestly don’t know who is going to win…yet. Give it another month or two and it may be a bit more clear-cut. But, for now, the news that McCain and Clinton have won New Hampshire is happy news for me. I’m still an Obama supporter [...]
Out of the woodwork
Comes former Presidential candidate George McGovern announcing his opinion that Bush and Cheney should be impeached. I find it interesting that he waited so long to say anything and, with the rest of the country mired in the 2008 race, why now? As we enter the eighth year of the Bush-Cheney administration, I have belatedly [...]
“Please do not elect someone who is stupid.”
Brilliant, just brilliant. But may I be so bold as to offer a suggestion, something for the undecided to bear in mind when making their democratic choices? This is something that transcends ideology, gender, race, religion, or any of the other identifiers that distinguish the candidates. It is this: Please do not elect someone who [...]
Hardly an accurate reflection of America
The following tables from MSNBC’s exit polling show the overwhelming colour of the average voter in Iowa. I think we can safely say that the Iowa results are not necessarily an accurate reflection of how America will vote. Republicans Category % Total Giuliani Huckabee Hunter McCain Paul Romney Thompson White 99 3 33 0 13 10 25 14 Black [...]
Don’t….just don’t
Ok, I’ve seen that Huckabee won Iowa. It’s a bittersweet morning for me with Huckabee and Obama winning. I could gladly agree with what pundits have been saying for years: that Iowa is not that important; but then I’m somewhat shooting myself in the foot because I’m happy Obama won. There is no happy medium. [...]
