Keating Economics

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

Looks like Obama is not taking these McCain-Palin smears lying down. The campaign is up with their own campaign nailing McCain’s involvement in the Keating 5 Savings & Loan Scandal.
Enjoy.

McCain and Palin Abandon Issues (and their integrity)

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

Over the weekend, a McCain aide leaked to the New York Daily News:
“It’s a dangerous road, but we have no choice,” a top McCain strategist told the Daily News. “If we keep talking about the economic crisis, we’re going to lose.”
Another top McCain adviser told the Washington Post that McCain needs to shift away from [...]

Daily Show: Gams and Gammer

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Jon Stewart of The Daily Show on Comedy Central does a nice compilation of the new ‘dramedy’ on CBS aka the Katie Couric-Sarah Palin interviews.

“You were wrong!” Moments

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Jed Lewiston has done a good job of collecting the McCain ‘You were wrong’ moments in to a minute and a half video clip that intersperses McCain’s own quotes between Obama’s debate dialogue.

First Obama-McCain Debate “You were wrong!”

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Here’s the first Obama-McCain Debate in its entirety.
Line of the night (Obama looking at McCain while McCain looks down):
John, you like to pretend like the war started in 2007. You talk about the surge. The war started in 2003, and at the time when the war started, you said it was going to [...]

More McCain-Palin Town Hall Questions

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

As earlier, I’m collecting possible questions for those of you lucky enough to attend these imaginary McCain-Palin town hall meetings:
1. What is the difference between Obama’s plan to use a windfall profits tax to secure energy rebates for Americans, which McCain has said is risky, and Gov. Palin’s use of a windfall profits tax to [...]

Letter to the Editor: On McCain’s Sex-Ed Ad

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

Published in the Bucyrus Telegraph, Bucyrus, OH, September 19, 2008.
Dear Editor,
I’ve remained undecided in the current presidential election until now, but the latest moves by the John McCain campaign has pushed me directly to Barack Obama. This latest ad bashing Obama’s support of a bill designed to protect children from sexual predators is just shameful. [...]

McCain Wins Debate! (Before it happens)

Friday, September 26th, 2008

Those of you expecting a hard fought debate tonight are in for a real disappointment. No, not because McCain is bailing, he just announced he would debate tonight. Apparently, even though the debate doesn’t start for another 9 hours, McCain has gone ahead and declared himself the winner! Must have been quite a blowout, 9 [...]

Townhall Questions for Sarah Palin

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

I’ll never have the opportunity to ask a question at a McCain-Palin townhall because 1. I don’t live in a swing state (yet) and 2. I’m probably on the Republican Party townhall blacklist (wait…THAT Rodney Hopper?).
For all of you who do have the opportunity to attend one of these dog and pony shows, here’s some [...]

McCain’s Perverse Obama Education Ad

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

The McCain campaign released the following ad in response to Obama’s challenge to focus on education. The ad has your requisite out of context headlines, followed by the claim that Obama’s sole education accolade is comprehensive sex education to children in kindergarten. It ends with a picture of Obama beside the words “Learning about sex”…”before [...]
