“MOM, DAD, CAN I HAVE 700 BILLION DOLLARS?”

The bailout. Well first, I do want to say I am happy that we are paying attention more than ever before about what these bills actually hold. Now I, like many, still am not perfectly sure how I feel about this. I mean I am still relatively young and I am not sure if giving [...]

CAN WE AGREE ON ANYTHING?

Is there anything we can all agree on? With all the real problems facing us today I expect better from the people trying to lead this country than to bicker about gay marriage, or people still even trying to debate that global warming is not man-made. Even if global warming is not man-made (I’ll try to entertain [...]

KARL ROVE INSULTS PEOPLE LIKE A THIRD GRADER

Karl Rove, the evil mastermind behind President Bush’s 2000 and 2004 unfortunately successful campaigns, decided to visit Maine’s Republican delegation on this Labor Day. And, typical of the administration he helped put into office, he said something pretty hypocritical:
During his speech, he talked up John McCain’s Republican presidential bid and criticized Democratic nominee Barack Obama [...]

WHAT, EXACTLY, DO YOU MEAN BY THE WORD “VICTORY?”

I know this video clip of one of John McCain’s recent speeches is a couple days old, but I just had to comment on it, even with the Biden headlines dominating the airwaves. Without further ado:

Helen Thomas, who, asked Nixon the questions that linked Nixon to the Watergate scandal. These are the question I want the journalists’ in [...]

I DIDN’T REALIZE THAT AMERICANS ACTUALLY CARED ABOUT GEORGIA

The video below shows a somber John McCain at one of his rallies addressing the Russia-Georgia Crisis, and at the end he declares that “Today we are all Georgians”:

I have an idea, let’s go out and poll Americans and ask them to point to Georgia on a map (we’ll have to [...]

UH OH, BUSH IS THREATENING ANOTHER COUNTRY

In the midst of the Russia-Georgia Crisis that has dominated the national news for much of the past week, President Bush felt compelled to discuss the situation with Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin during the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics:
Bush was filmed speaking to Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin during Friday’s opening ceremonies and [...]

PRESIDENT BUSH IS FUNNY

Pictured above is our President, George W. Bush, engaging in a conversation of some sort with American Olympian volleyball player Misty May-Treanor at the Olympic Games in Beijing, China. Now, normally I would rip Mr. Bush for taking such a trip because he hasn’t deserved it, because our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan can’t go [...]

MCCAIN SAYS HE CAN WIN A WAR THAT REPUBLICANS HAVE DECLARED ALREADY WON

In Las Vegas yesterday, Republican presidential candidate John McCain addressed the difference between himself and counterpart Barack Obama’s Iraq policy:
“Both candidates in this election pledge to end this war and bring our troops home. The great difference is that I intend to win it first,” the Republican senator from Arizona told the national convention of [...]
