Senator Obama has been throwing out idea after idea on the economy. Senator McCain... Not so much. Obama just released a new four point plan to resuscitate our failing economy. It's pretty good. McCain just seems to be flailing about.On
Well, that was interesting (here's the video). While John McCain's head didn't explode, every pore on his body oozed a grouchy, "Get off my damn lawn!" mentality towards Barak Obama.I thought Obama really held his
John McCain made a "boldly courageous" move the other day and suspended his presidential campaign so that he could go to Washington where he resolutely... "declined to take a stand." Apparently because "Ultimately,
John McCain just kills me. After two of the worst days on Wall Street, he's still saying that the "fundamentals of our economy are strong." What planet is this guy on?Then he says he's going to appoint a commission to look at t
Well, it's official... Even my own local right-wing rag is calling John McCain a liar. Whatever happened to the "straight talk express?"McCain is implying that Barak Obama will raise taxes on the middle class -- which is patently false.
That was the first thing I noticed about John McCain's acceptance speech -- a sea of white people. I have never seen so many white people all in one place. I live in San Diego. But that wasn't the point of John McCain's speech. It wa
She might be. Nobody knows. She was never vetted by the FBI. She might be indebted to the Alaskan mob for gambling losses. Who knows? Not John McCain.Apparently, John McCain was in such a snit over the fact that he couldn't get his way
McCain made a longshot pick for Vice-President by choosing Sarah Palin, a former beauty contest winner and governor of Alaska. She is currently the subject of an ethics probe for misusing her powers -- an impeachable offense.Sarah Palin has
Republicans took to ridiculing Senator Obama over a remark he made about making sure our tires are inflated by passing out tire gauges. Really. Are Republicans that stupid? It's a fact that properly inflating your tires will save you about $800 p
My local rag did a comparison of Obama's and McCain's tax plans today. It's interesting to note that the middle class will do much better under a President Obama.The [Tax Policy Center] also calculated that the wealthiest would see t
So it turns out that the torture manual used by the U.S. military was "copied verbatim from a 1957 Air Force study of Chinese Communist techniques used during the Korean War."These were the techniques used to get our boys to make outlandish
US investigators found out that some of the Iranian-supplied Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) used in Iraq contained US-manufactured parts. They traced them back to Dubai in the United Arab Emirites -- the same guys President Bush and his Republic
John McCain swung through San Diego yesterday proclaiming that he is in agreement with bin Laden. McCain claims that Iraq is the central front in the war on terror."General Petraeus and I and Osama bin Laden are in agreement," the Arizona s
Last week, Presidential candidate John McCain stated that Iran was supporting al-Qaeda. His campaign made that implication multiple times, but there is no connection between Shiite Iran and Sunni-dominated al-Qaeda. Is McCain senile, or is he la
Defense Secretary Robert Gates is in Europe trying to scare up support for Afghanistan by decoupling it from Iraq, "I worry that for many Europeans the missions in Iraq and Afghanistan are confused..." Gee, I wonder why that would be so.Per
Yesterday, John McCain came out squarely in favor of government enforced maternity. He told a groupĀ in South Carolina that "I do not support Roe versus Wade. It should be overturned." Now, I realize this is a litmus testĀ that Repu
There was a good op-ed by Richard Clark in my paper yesterday: "It's time to admit it's over in Iraq." To use a somewhat insensitive metaphor, he basically says it's foolish for America to throw good money -- and lives -- after bad. He sugg
