Whatever this incredibly ugly woman and Japanese sniper impersonator says into a microphone, is utterly irrelevant nonsense. The same applies to all the other 'speakers' like Obama and McCain etc., the principle actors in this debacle of stupidity.
It is all a sorry example of chosen prima-donna`s singing their insane and outrageous rubbish to millions of gullible lemmings who actually listen to it AND more astonishing, BELIEVE IT ! Some of the worst brain-washed zombies even write regular and continuous robot-like outbursts in these M&C pages under the optimistic illusion that they are intelligent.
Any potential leader can only be selected on their PAST RECORD AND ACHIEVEMNTS. There is NO other intelligent way. YOU CANNOT SELECT A LEADER ON PROMISES UNLESS ACCOUNTABILITY IS ABLE TO DISMISS THEM FOR FAILURE.
NOBODY can predict the future. These people can say and PROMISE whatever they like and fair enough. BUT unless they are held accountable to KEEP those promises if elected, then the entire exercise is no more than an elaborate and very expensive comic charade.
In nature, NO pack leader is CHOSEN. Such leaders have to fight their way to the top and maintain their position by strength and power. It is done on ability and nothing else.
When these leader-impersonators go around making all kinds of speeches, firstly look at their background - if they have not got an impressive one - dump them quick. Secondly, if they are elected on PROMISES, then unless the system makes them accountable and can dismiss them AT ANY TIME if those promises are not achieved, then all you have is a stupid rotten system and a disgrace to civilised behaviour.
McCain HAS an impressive and VERY extensive background, Obama has NONE !
I guess THAT speaks for itself ! UNLESS OF COURSE YOU ARE A HUMAN LEMMING AND HAVE THE BRAIN OF A TURNIP.
Please tell me this isn't the best you can come up with.
to go on record as siding with ''Mass Hysteria''. Also, I would add, ''
Unfortunately, the voters didn't follow this simple rule in the last two presidential elections''.
McCain and Palin
Nah ESS PEE ah can doo a lot better than that and you know it, but just be constructive and analytical man - WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT ? NOTHING !
Which General would YOU put in charge of your troops for an impending invasion ? The guy with a jacket loaded with decorations OR the Rookie with a jacket straight from the Quartermasters stores ?
The whole thing is so stupid it is hard to believe it is actually happening - IT`S A ONE HORSE RACE MATEY. THAT IS UNLESS YOU ARE A LEMMING.
Just think...a heartbeat away from being President!
McCain = McSame
McCain has supported Bush in almost every way. They even shared birthday cake on the day Katrina struck land. What a Maverick!! Remember when Bush finally made it to 'help' victims by handing out water, etc.? He was caught on camera telling someone to 'roll up' their sleeves because it made them look like they were working hard. Great leadership!
The republicans have had 8 years to get this country on track and have failed miserably. Democrats couldn't possibly do worse than Bush has. He's lead us into a useless war over oil (not Iraqi Freedom or WMD). He lied about his military record which happened to get ruined by rats or something (does ANYONE believe that?). We're up to our eyeballs in debt in this country and I don't think it's one bit funny. Our kids cannot afford this kind of leadership.
Would Obama be any better? Can't be any worse! If you like $4 dollar gas and think you're better off than 4 or even 8 years ago - vote republican. If not, you better rethink.
BTW--If you want the TRUTH about the war google 'energy non crisis' and take the time to watch the 75 minute video by Pastor Lindsey Williams. You'll see why we really went to war and will likely be at war with Iran. This isn't a democrat or republican problem, it's bigger than that!
..this Obama is a neophyte to be sure, but he has managed to gain power very quickly, and take it from some folks who really know the game. He is no person to underestimate.
Having said that, the boy king is a man who, were he not black, would be named John Edwards. This is the reason he's where he is...novelty. The woman...they flushed her for the guy they now have running, after she got 18000000 votes.
OK ESS PEE, I`ve got your message, BUT !
With the idiot thinking that has affected all reason in our society, is it JUST possible that ;-
It is precisely THAT HE IS BLACK why this colored golden balls is where he is. He`s been pushed so hard up the arse by naive whites like a ping ball on a fountain to get above all others to the top.
Of course, the guy has to have SOME attributes, but if you get a promising black, a whole army of stupid whites will push him over any potential white like a road roller, until he becomes a presentable product at the top of the tree.
Same misguided stupidity with the woman.
YEH man, it`s GOT to be a BLACK or a WOMAN nowadays to be sociably correct, otherwise it is called DISCRIMINATION or RACIAL BIAS etc.
AMEN
Noooooooo - makes some good points. Everything isn't lily-white in Alaska besides the snow!
said he is voting for McCain just to have dems in the congress and reps in the white house where neither can do anything.
I agree. Both parties are so lame and dangerous that it is better to just lay low for 4 years and then Hillary can run against Sarah in 2012.
love her she can lie like you.
'Obama is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting, and never use the word 'victory' except when he's talking about his own campaign.'
Lie: July 15, in a speech in Washington D.C. Obama twice used the word 'victory' in reference to Iraq.
He said 'true success in Iraq---victory in Iraq---will not take place in a surrender ceremony where an enemy lays down their arms---I want Iraqis to take responsibility for their own future, and to reach a political accomodation necessary for long-term stability. That's success. That's what's best for Iraq, that's what's best for America.'
There are other times he has used 'victory', but she likes to lie just like all neo-cons.
Palin: 'There is much to like and admire about our opponent. But listening to him speak, its easy to forget that this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or reform---not even in the state senate.'
Lie: Obama worked with Senator Luger of Indiana to pass legislation that would expand efforts to intercept illegal shipment of weapons of mass destruction and to destroy conventional weapons stockpiles.
While a state senator in Illinois, he sponsered two contentious bills, one that studied racial profiling by police and another that ordered interrogations in potential death penalty cases to be recorded.
Another lie by a neo-con.
Palin: I fought to bring about the largest private-sector infrastructure project in North American history. And when the deal was struck, we began a nearly $40 Billion natural gas pipeline to help lead America to energy independence. That pipeline, when the last section is laid and its valves are opened, will lead America one step farther away from dependence on dangerous foreign powers that do not have our interests at heart.'
Lie: This infrastructure she is talking about has not even been approved by the Federal regulators. To top that off, due to Palin's prodding the Alaska legislature farmed the work out to a Canadian firm (TransCanada), $500 million to the Canadians instead of Americans.
Another lie by a neo-con.
Palin: 'I told the Congress 'thanks, but no thanks' for that Bridge to Nowhere.'
Lie: While serving as mayor of Wasilla, Palin hired Steven Silver, a former chief of staff for Senator Ted Stevens to lobby congress for earmarks. Wasilla received around $27 million in federal money, about as much as Boise Idaho. Boise has a population of around 200,000 compared to Wasilla's 10,000. Earmarked funds went to sewage improvements and improving roads connecting the town to a local ski resort.
As for the 'Bridge to Nowhere,' Palin initially supported using federal funds to build a $398 million bridge from Ketchikan to Gravina Island which has 50 residents. (The Ted Stevens Bridge). It was not until the plan was ridiculed that she withdrew her support.
No wonder you neo-con idiots support her, she lies just like you do.
If this Al Jolson impersonator comes up your way to tell you how grateful you should be that America paid poor old Russia a massive 2 cents an acre for that big lump of frozen crap back in 1867 and to piss Moonshine all over your very own Eskimo Nell, then here is a suggestion.
Make certain that your local Dummy-Dems get him to wear white at night, so you can all see him.
THEN, with luck and the grace of God, he`ll get flattened by a snow plough.
Snowballs to you all.
McCain + Palin = Bush
Even the mentally challanged can use a computer!
was meant for Hello Alaska..........
I'd like to see Sara Palin at Sturgis playing catch the weinie.
Palin isn't running against Obama - remember? But god help us if McCain wins and decides to check out!
Have a look at Obama lying:

Telling me how much Sarah Palin and I may disagree on some issues, does not, through some medieval alchemy, morph Obama into a man of character, integrity or experience.
Senator John McCain graciously sent Barack Obama a letter congratulating him on his nomination and its historic significance. His message includes this revealing line: 'How perfect that your nomination would come on this historic day.' Yes, of course, it was perfect, if you believe the convention serendipitously included the anniversary date of DR King's iconic American Dream speech.
It's more likely, it's too perfect and that McCain, the seasoned politician who survived the Bush campaigns, sees it for what it is: the 'perfect' piece of an orchestrated, ethically corrupt, marketing campaign. The fact that the convention dates included the anniversary of DR King's speech only gives further credence to the idea that the DNC picked its candidate early on and that much of what transpired during the primary and the convention was a sham.
Mourn the end of Roosevelt's Democratic Party. Its lamp was extinguished from within by once-trusted keepers of the flame, who plotted its demise. FDR's Party, the party of the people, is gone; it was the victim of a Chicago hit carried out brazenly on cable news for the entire nation to view. The neo-Dem mob used the lethal weapons of misogyny, ageism, race-baiting, and classism for the slaughter. The evil cabal of suspects include Dean, Brazile, Axelrod, Pelosi, and every other elitist party official who thumbed his/her nose at the people's vote. There are forces within this country that want to dilute or even dissipate our collective power, and unfortunately they stretch within the neo-Democratic Party.
The sadness that many of us have experienced this election is about much more than Hillary Clinton; it is about country, principles and beliefs. It is about the role of our leaders and their responsibility to citizens in a democracy. It is about the sanctity of our vote in a democratic society. Eighteen million Americans have been cheated of their presidential candidate's vision, knowledge and experience, and neo-Dem Party elitists have allowed their personal thirst for power to take precedence over the needs of the people they were elected to serve.
The neo-Dems have played Chicago-style politics, and therefore, we must react in kind. It must be this for that, tit for tat, or we will never reestablish our power as voters within that party. They must be reminded that actions have consequences.
Any child, who has ever gone toe to toe with a bully in a playground and won, understands the undeniable truth about the way Chicago politics is played. We have been civil. We have called, emailed, and written letters. We have politely protested. Civility has not worked. We must fight, or we are vanquished. They must feel our pain, or we have relinquished our place in the sun.
Obama hopes that the likable Biden will win him working class voters who he offended early on with his elitist San Francisco comments. It must not happen; the disenfranchisement must be remembered. I know I will remember in November.
Like the neo-Con Republicans, the neo-Dems cannot be trusted. We must elect a President who will ensure the checks and balances of power that are founders valued. A Democratic Congress with a Republican President will keep them all on their toes, because with that vote we will have nullified the elitists of both parties. We've done enough of the heavy lifting; let us put our national elected leaders on notice in a very public way.
I will remember, but who else will remember in November that it is time to take our country back? I will vote McCain, because there is no other viable option for our country. With McCain as POTUS and a Democratic Congress, the two branches can spend the next two years repeatedly checking each other if they cannot work together for the good of the country.
As a result of losing what was to be a 'sure thing' this year, the neo-Dems will be cast off (especially, Brazile, Dean, Axelrod, Pelosi, and their sycophants). Thus, the Clintons should be able to seize the leadership during the next Congressional election and reestablish FDR party principles with Hillary running in 2012.
Personally, I will have no problem voting for Senator John McCain; because I believe him to be an honorable man, and I yearn to respect my President again. McCain knows the pangs of war; he will be a good commander in chief. Kerry wanted McCain for his Vice-President in 2004, but McCain refused. Despite neo-Dem comments to the contrary, if Johnny Mac was good enough to lead then; he is good enough now. In addition, McCain's choice of Sarah Palin as VP will make a Republican win in November even sweeter revenge, since it will be a one-two punch and force some reflective 'we should have/could have' moments on Democrats.
For me, Senator John McCain has proven that he is the best candidate by his VP choice, because actions do speak louder than words. As others have pointed out, he put his dream of the presidency on the line, and he put his faith in a woman. The actions of the neo-Dems, on the other hand, prove that they are not progressive when it comes to women, since we have witnessed a huge disconnect between what they do and what they say.
For the sake of our country, for its children, and its children's children, remind the neo-Dems that the people's democratic vote must be respected. Many have fought to safeguard these voting rights for us. As I write there are soldiers in Iraq defending the right of that country's people to live in a democratic society, it is indefensible that a national political party has used fascist tactics to deny fellow citizens these rights in our own land, and it is disgraceful that party leaders who have acted as watch guards of democracy elsewhere ignored what happened here. Yet, the Democratic Party has done just that in joining with Obama’s ethically corrupt campaign to guarantee him victory.
I will remember in November, but will I be the only one? Will American voters, especially Clinton Democrats and Independents, remember? Or will some of us stay home or vote Obama out of some misplaced loyalty to the past?
Any Chicagoan knows the adage 'you gotta do what you gotta do.' In that mind frame, McCain’s mother gave sage advice for this election to those who are on the fence: 'Hold your nose, and vote McCain.'
