please take the time to inform yourselves . . . this is our path to victory in 2008. Spread the link and bring awareness to this sick, twisted, horrific anti-American fascist ideology and agenda.
We do not need these people controlling the most powerful position in the free world — it would be to our certain peril as a free nation.
I am actually begging you to engage and shout out from the mountain tops. please. Knowledge and Information are our greatest weapon. I can’t believe even the most “reasonable” conservatives would support this madness.
Interesting and revealing article, not only about the end of Pax Americana as we once knew but also about the rest of the world racing fast to catch up.
One thing the U.S. undoubtedly has is the best universities in the world, and 70% of those being awarded PhD’s are from other countries. All those billions squandered on killing people so Chimpy McFlghtsuit could play commander in chief.
Stamps go up one cent on Monday. Obama’s got superdelegate power. When it comes to disasters, the junta in Myanmar’s a lot like the junta in the Pentagon.
Speaking of Myanmar, one of McCain’s toadies did business with them.
Strange memories on this nervous night in New York. Has it been 7 years, 8? It seems like a lifetime since that criminal moron became president.
Thinking about the good ol’ days when gas prices were below a dollar….. I used to fill up my sedan with a mere $14 dollars. How I miss the good ol’ days.
A timeline of gas prices shows similar hikes during the Iraq/Iran war back in the 80s. Here’s to hoping that when the idiot in chief along with his band of criminals leaves the white house that some sanity will be restored and that oil prices aren’t just soaring because we’re running out of this valuable natural resource as we inch closer to peak oil production.

They have to keep him under wraps. If he goes to France or Germany, the already have warrants drawn up for war crimes.
O.K. ste monitor, are you going to do this again tonight. Tell me what it is that you have a problem with.

Robert Malley, who works for the International Crisis Group, said he served as an “informal” Middle East advisor to Obama and told NBC News he decided to step down after the Times of London inquired about his contacts with Hamas.
“I decided based on the fact that this was becoming a distraction that it was best that I remove myself from any association with the campaign,” Malley told NBC.
“My job with the International Crisis Group is to meet with all sorts of savory and unsavory people and report on what they say. I’ve never denied whom I meet with; that’s what I do.”
The Times quoted Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt as saying: “Malley has, like hundreds of other experts, provided informal advice to the campaign in the past. He has no formal role in the campaign and he will not play any role in the future.”
The issue of Hamas, viewed as a terrorist outfit by the United States and Europe, has dogged the Obama campaign as Republican rival John McCain’s team has repeatedly brought up the militant group’s alleged support for Obama.
The man picked by the John McCain campaign to run the 2008 Republican National Convention resigned Saturday after a report that his lobbying firm used to represent the military regime in Myanmar (Burma).
The man picked by the John McCain campaign to run the 2008 Republican National Convention resigned Saturday after a report that his lobbying firm used to represent the military regime in Myanmar.
Doug Goodyear resigned as convention coordinator and issued a two sentence statement:
“Today I offered the convention my resignation so as not to become a distraction in this campaign. I continue to strongly support John McCain for president, and wish him the best of luck in this campaign.”
Goodyear, chief executive of lobbying firm DCI Group, resigned a few hours after Newsweek posted a story posted online that the company was paid $348,000 in 2002 and 2003 to represent Myanmar’s junta.
“We respect Mr. Goodyear’s decision, and look forward to the convention in September,” said Brian Rogers, a spokesman for the McCain campaign.
I was slightly stunned at the irony of this paragraph in your endorsement of Barack Obama:
“Finally, I want to say a word about the basic decency I have seen in Mr. Obama. Mrs. Clinton continues to throw the Rev. Wright up in his face as part of her mission to keep stoking the fears of White America. Every time she does this I shout at the TV, ‘Say it, Obama! Say that when she and her husband were having marital difficulties regarding Monica Lewinsky, who did she and Bill bring to the White House for “spiritual counseling?” THE REVEREND JEREMIAH WRIGHT!‘”
I am at a loss to understand why you wanted Obama to say that, and yet YOU didn’t take the opportunity to mention it yourself on Larry King Live when he gave you a perfect opening. In fact, I shouted at my TV set, “Say it, Michael, say it now!”

An advisor to Democratic White House hopeful Barack Obama has left the campaign after a British newspaper asked him about meetings with the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas, media reports said Friday.
Robert Malley, who works for the International Crisis Group, said he served as an “informal” Middle East advisor to Obama and told NBC News he decided to step down after the Times of London inquired about his contacts with Hamas.
“I decided based on the fact that this was becoming a distraction that it was best that I remove myself from any association with the campaign,” Malley told NBC.
