MSM PLAYS UP "RIGHT-WING HATRED"

Because the main stream media think that all republicans are racist, backwoods hicks, as well as them being in Obama's pocket, anything that's critical of their candidate coming from the right has to be dealt with harshly and put into the prism of race. There was a woman so old that her blood type was dust at a townhall gathering for McCain who said "he's Arab" about Obama, which McCain quickly refuted. There was someone in a crowd saying "off with his head" referring to Obama. Because of these isolated incidents, the MSM quickly fritters through to their talking points in the MSM rolodex and in unison scream "McCain is inciting hatred". I've heard that everywhere just this weekend. I guess because McCain and Palin have been saying that Obama's been 'pal'ing around with terrorists, that means he's inciting hatred. Nevermind it being true. Even though we all know McCain/Palin is referring to a white domestic terrorist (William Ayers), people in the media have already said that had a racial overtone because of the word "terrorist".
 
It's a dark day, no pun intended, when we can't look at a man who hasn't accomplished one thing, has worked hard to not accomplish anything, got his political start in a domestic terrorist's home, and the only things we know about him are things that should disturb us, and not be able to talk about these things openly. The MSM is playing up an idiot evangelist who is claiming that Obama is the Antichrist. That alone should revoke his stature as an evangelist because if there is an Antichrist now, he would have to come from the country of Spain.  Doesn't matter how I know that, I just know it because of what is written scripturally. Obama isn't the Antichrist, but the MSM is playing this up big time. "Those damn Christians are so dumb, we must take advantage of this". He's also nowhere near the Messiah either. Notice that hasn't been played up at all, but yet I've heard more about Obama being the Messiah more than him being the Antichrist. Obama's and his former pastor Wright's pal Louis Farrakhan called Obama "the Messiah" just this past Thursday. Donna Brazile and Rep. Steve Cohen both said Obama was like Jesus while Palin was like Pilate, again in unison. There was a music teacher in California making a campaign video for Obama, which he denied but as Townhall.com's own Amanda Carpenter stated that the production value was too high to be just a private thing. They sung songs of joy, hope, and change as if Obama's birthday is Christmas. Not a peep from the MSM about these. Not to mention the MSM's own infatuation with this man.
 
This is their Citizen Kane moment. They can't get themselves elected so with their one-sided, corrupt voice they are doing whatever it takes to elect their lord and saviour. The Obamasciple media want good seats to the great white throne judgment in January. I'm surprised they haven't talked about his possible term as President as being a thousand years instead of four or eight. While McCain is being respectful, his crowd does anger at him for not taking it to Obama. He's barely mentioned that he tried to in 2005 avert this whole mess with the GSE's such as Fannie and Freddie while Obama has taken more money from them in the last three years than anyone. Obama even mentioned McCain's ties to a Fannie lobbyist who made thousands of dollars to no reply from McCain. McCain could have brought up Raines, Johnson, and Gorelick being on Obama's staff, who took in millions upon millions. Not thousands. McCain should have stated that Clinton admitted it was the democrats fault in a Good Morning America interview for this lending crisis. Instead of just stating that in a campaign ad, say it when the entire country's watching at a nationally televised debate. The anger towards McCain is justified because we are just weeks away from electing someone with a history of accomplishing nothing to be the leader of the most powerful nation on Earth at the most crucial time since WWII. While McCain might be thinking that Obama might become President so he should be respectful and bring the country together after such a divisive time, but he has to take the gloves off. McCain should be shouting that he's not Bush's third term. He should quit lowering his voice into that pleading whisper he does when he's trying to convince us of the threats of the world and Obama's stances on them. He should point out Obama's left of NARAL voting record on abortion in which Obama didn't think a baby surviving an abortion attempt should be kept alive. He should point out Obama's association of Jeremiah Wright even when he said it wasn't an issue. Even Obama admitted it was an issue months ago. Obama's main campaign talking point is telling everyone that the republicans are going to try to make America fear him. DUH! What if something happens like 9/11 when Obama's President? What can you look at in his history and say "yeah, he can possibly handle a crisis like that"? Are we not supposed to consider these things? Hopefully America will, but their hatred is so great they might blindly choose change no matter the consequences. That would be a dark day. Again, no pun intended.

IF OBAMA IS ELECTED pt. 2

In the first part, I laid out what I think is a strong possibility, even probability security-wise if Obama is elected President. What I didn't say is that we would be open to more terrorist attacks, but I think we all know that. I know that is taboo and it's nothing something a lot of people think we should talk about, but no one in their right mind will deny this is a bigger possibility if Obama wins than McCain. We all know it. This part I want to get into the economic struggles to come if Obama is elected President.
 
As Obama pointed out in the last debate, $18 billion isn't a lot of money (yet he somehow won the debate?). Maybe it won't be by the time President Obama is done. While President Bush and the republicans deserve a LOT of the blame for the financial mess we're in, excluding the newest lending disaster, President Obama would make us wish Bush was still there. Where I fault Bush and the republicans on the economy was that power corrupted their thinking. When Newt and the GOP took over congress, we had the strongest economy in decades. Clinton knew he was overpowered so he went along with the "Contract With America" and cut the budget down big. Oh, Newt. Where are you now? Part of the strong economy had to do with the internet boom which was destined to bust. Banks and companies thought that Americans had a secret stash of money hidding in their homes, so they put all of this money into the internet thinking there's no way they wouldn't be getting it back. Americans will buy anything afterall. Banks and companies lost their heads with how they were throwing out so casually millions of dollars at the internet, only to see it not return. Americans didn't have that secret stash of money. Just before Clinton left, our economy fell. That wasn't so bad though. Then the corporate scandals started coming to light. Then 9/11 happened. Our economy took a huge hit at that point. We were at war. Bush proposed tax cuts, which McCain was against. I agree with McCain on this point that why he was against them wasn't that he was necessarily against the tax cuts during wartime, but that spending in other areas had to be halted. Bush and the disillusioned GOP wouldn't do that though. They increased spending while cutting taxes during wartime. A formula for failure and a weaker dollar. Spending wouldn't have been like that if Newt was still Speaker. Those I fault Bush on. He never vetoed a spending bill brought to him by congressional republicans or said "hey guys, enough!"
 
Now what Obama is proposing is even worse. No economist agrees with Obama's "tax the rich" plan, especially now. If he taxes people and businesses making over $250,000 or more, then we are going to have a depression. Not just a recession. Stock markets all over the world are tanking, including ours and I bet a good deal of it has to do with Obama leading in the polls. The prospects of being taxed twice on stocks isn't so enticing to investors, no matter what is going on with the housing market. The possibility of more job loss because businesses will be forced to cut jobs to pay for the new taxes. While Obama is promising a tax cut for 95% of Americans, seemingly a good portion of them don't realize that products will go up in price because of the new taxes levied upon them. Gas would go up even more because oil companies will be taxed more. You think they're going to decide to make less of a profit? Please. As Fred Thompson perfectly said at the RNC, "No, they’re just going to tax businesses! So unless you buy something from a business, like groceries or clothes or gasoline … or unless you get a paycheck from a big or a small business, don’t worry … it’s not going to affect you. They say they are not going to take any water out of your side of the bucket, just the other side of the bucket!" Couldn't have said it better myself. He'll put in a socialist healthcare system which fails in most parts of the world. Someone in Canada has to go see not only doctors, but representatives of the government in order to get healthcare. We're going to have to pay for another HUGE bureaucracy which will be loaded with people who helped Obama get elected. They have to get their cut, over and under the table. That will sink us like a stone. Not only will companies cut jobs, but you might see companies just go away. GM is already in danger of doing that. If taxes go up on them and other businesses, then this class warfare thing will end. Businesses will suffer and when businesses suffer, we suffer even more. Job loss, salaries down, products going up in price. If you think we've already seen it, just wait. You haven't seen anything yet. While we will probably be further in the grips of war, even if we tried to get out of it, Obama will tax those our economy needs to be strong. He will weaken the capitalist system the likes this country has never seen before. We will crave for the good ole Bush days, as sad as that sounds. That says a lot from me since I'm no fan of President Bush. Things are going to get real bad, maybe even to biblical proportions.

IF OBAMA IS ELECTED pt. 1

Here are some things that I strongly believe will happen if Barack Obama wins the presidency...
 
As he has stated many times, he will begin withdrawing quickly our troops from Iraq. This is the only reason why he won the democratic nomination is that he was against the Iraq war. Well the media helped him. Forgot about them. No matter what General Petraeus says, President Obama has promised a quick pullout. He will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. This will leave Iraq open to a resurgent insurgency involving al Qaeda and Iran. This is what they're waiting for. One of the biggest reasons for the new successes in Iraq was because of the surge itself. Not what the surge even did. Local tribesleaders spoke on camera saying when they saw that the U.S. was going to stay and get the job done that they then decided to get on the side of U.S. and Iraqi troops. This is a fact. When they saw our commitment and realized we weren't going to cut tail and run they decided to fight alongside us and not against us. That was also helped by General Petraeus' strategy of really utilizing their capabilities to run their towns. This is still all too fragile. Once Obama cuts and runs, in will come foreign forces and the tribesleaders will then have to protect their towns. Even if Obama knows this will happen, he's still going to pull our troops out. Afterall, he did decide to not fund our troops while in harm's way after he promised not to. His running mate, then opponent Biden said "the decision not to fund our troops will cost American lives" and said "it was a political decision" on the part of Obama. So what will happen then?
 
Obama promised that if things got real bad that he would resend American troops back into Iraq! Look it up. Why the McCain campaign refuses to bring this to the attention of the American people I have no idea. I think that would be a very interesting thing to have seen at the last debate if McCain said "Obama promised after pulling troops out that if things got real bad in Iraq that he would put them back there", then ask Obama to explain why that's his strategy. Why pull them out at all if he's just going to send them back in if things take a turn for the worse? Think about it. Iraq has become so successful that no one is even talking about it. If we leave and things turn towards the worst direction, and they would, he would send our troops back after our enemies have a stronger foothold than they had before and will be armed to the teeth waiting for us. The local tribesleaders will not fight alongside us anymore because we bailed on them once already. They won't depend on us then. They might even help kill our soldiers. McCain should definitely bring this up. Obama would be clueless how to handle this scenario, so he'll look to his running mate who has experience and a proposal he put out a long time ago on what to do with Iraq. Biden said Iraq should have been split in three back when things got real bad. The Kurds in the north, Sunnis in the central part, and Shiites in the south. A clueless President Obama and both houses of congress being democratic will ensure this split after things go real bad. Then all Hell would break loose. WWIII will be at hand. The emboldened Iranians will either have a nuclear weapon or Israel will have bombed their nuclear facilities. An emboldened Iran with Syria as its partner and Russia with China having their backs will unleash their fury upon Israel. Why will Iran be emboldened? We cut and ran from Iraq even when things were going a lot better. They know there's no way in hell that President Obama is going to invade them no matter what they do.
 
When you look at Obama's associations, you see a clear pattern of hanging around Israel-haters. That's another thing that should be of huge concern to the American people. Saul Alinsky, Reverend Wright, Father Pfleger, William Ayers, and Rashid Khalidi. Khalidi received money from Obama and Ayers from the Woods Fund through the Arab-American Action Network. Khalidi is a well-known Jew-hater and is close to Barack Obama. Obama was fond of Khalidi and his wife Mona and her cooking. Obama even threw Khalidi a dinner party when Khalidi was on his way to Columbia University (where else). Obama said of the conversations with Khalidi "consistent reminders to me of my own blind spots and my own biases. . . . It's for that reason that I'm hoping that, for many years to come, we continue that conversation -- a conversation that is necessary not just around Mona and Rashid's dinner table, but around "this entire world." Can Obama say if pressed "he's just a guy I met in the neighborhood" about another association? One more of a slew of things McCain MUST bring up not only through Palin's stump speeches but in the last debate for everyone to see. If you throw enough names out there, one has to stick in the minds of voters on election day. All we know about Obama are things that should disturb us. He's not done one thing that people can point out to and say "that was a good thing he did". He has done his damnedest to remain ambiguous, all with the media's help. A new standard on how to win the White House. No one asks him about the cast of characters he hangs out with, reminiscent of the opening scene in the first Naked Gun movie. All we know about him are bad things. The thought of Obama winning turns my stomach because he is a man we know very little about, and what we do know about him is that he's a very disturbing character. Who else hangs with people such as this? No guilt by association? Come on, people. We're talking about him being the President of the United States!
 
I'll get to the economic problems in part two of this blog.

YOU GOTTA LOVE CHICAGO

"Only in America" is a great slogan invented by boxing promoter/crook Don King. I will use that and coin my own phrase "only in Chicago". Only in Chicago can fans of a team that has not won a World Series title in one hundred years say "this is the year" every single year. Only in Chicago can the most corrupt person succeed the most politically. Only in Chicago do they hate their mayor but yet can't name the last person who ran against him. Only in Chicago.

 
Tonight the Chicago Cubs officially made it one hundred years without winning a World Series title by getting swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers. I have to admit that I'm nowhere near a Cub fan, so I was rooting for the Cubs to lose. One hundred years without winning a title is one of those things you have to root for. No other franchise has such a record of futility in all of sports. Since the last time the Cubs won a WS title the Yankees have won twenty-six. How did this "epitome of loser" get started losing? Only in Chicago can they blame this all on a curse. On an innocent animal no less. A goat. The owner of the goat Billy Sianis was kicked out of the game WITH HIS GOAT (goats at a game?) because the goat stunk to high hell. So as legend has it, Sianis told everyone that the Cubs wouldn't win a World Series ever again. This was in 1945. Explain the previous thirty-seven years being their last championship was in 1908. So the Cubs suck because of a goat? Come on. Then there was the black cat curse in 1969. The Cubs had a huge lead going into the final weeks of the season but a surging Mets team passed them after a black cat ran across the field. Then there was the "curse of Bartman". A man dressed in weird clothing in the front row of the left field seats reached and touched a ball that would have probably been caught by Moises Alou. Cub fans threatened this man thinking he cost them a World Series. The Chicago Tribune went as far as to give Steve Bartman's home address to the public. That was nice, eh? Friggin idiotic. Only in Chicago. And only in Chicago will they not remember there were other fans reaching for that ball too. Only in Chicago will they forget SS Alex Gonzalez dropped the easiest ground ball hit in the history of man right after that. The ball came up for him perfectly. Only a Cub would mess it up. This year before the playoffs started, Mayor or should I say King Daley threw a huge bash for the Cubs in celebration for their season. They had not won anything yet but a division title. They acted like they won the whole thing already. Only in Chicago will you have such a losing history and yet think they prematurely won it all. Perfectly setting up their future failure against the Dodgers. Only in Chicago will you have such a losing history and blame it on a curse other than realizing that sucking isn't a curse. I'll provide a cute list of things that have happened since the Cubs last won a championship.
 
Only in Chicago will they blame a cow for burning down the entire city. We all have heard about Mrs. O'Leary's cow and how it burned down all of Chicago. Dumb. A cow? Who knew a cow was really Drew Barrymore? "Mooo BOOM!" A cow? Come on, Chicago. On October 8th, 1871 the Great Chicago Fire started. It burned for two days straight. The legend has it that a cow burned down the entire city. Writer Michael Ahern was the one who came up with this story but admitted he made it up in 1893 saying it would be a good story to tell. Now the part about Ahern making up this story isn't known by many people, including Chicagoans. They still think a cow did it, even though Ahern admitted to making it up and the same night there were other horrible fires in the Midwest. One was particularly bad in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. The tale of Peshtigo sounds like something out of a nightmare. People outside who's clothes and hair would catch on fire without any contact of fire. Scientists have since stated that it probably was a meteorite that caused all of the fires in the Midwest that night, including the Great Chicago Fire. A cow.
 
Only in Chicago can an admitted terrorist get a tenured professorship at one of their prestigious universities. William Ayers, Barack's buddy (don't let him convince you otherwise) founded a group called The Weather Underground. It was a group that formed to check and see if Hell froze over. Hence the term "Weather Underground". Okay, that's not true. Sorry, couldn't resist. This group was actually a domestic terrorist group that bombed NYPD headquarters, the Capitol Building, the Pentagon, and military recruitment offices. Ayers was a fugitive and on the FBI's Most Wanted list for over a decade. He was brought to trial but since his daddy was CEO of Chicagoland's Commonwealth Edison, he got away with these crimes. Crimes to which he has admitted to committing since. He even admits he wished he could have done more damage. He can be seen stomping on the US flag in Chicago Magazine. Now he's a tenured professor at UIC. Obama actually had his coming out party into Chicago politics at Ayers' home. Ayers is married to Bernardine Dohrn who was also part of this group and was also on the FBI's Most Wanted list. Only in Chicago can a man like this be "connected" to Chicago politics and donors, from which Obama got his start. Obama has been stating that he's not friends with this guy and barely knows him, but let's take the word of Obama's own chief adviser David Axelrod when he said the two "were certainly friendly". That's a direct quote. Here's a saying I came up with that all should learn. No one that comes out of Chicago politics comes out clean. Chicago is the Mecca of voter fraud and strong-arming corporations and politicians. Jesse Jackson ring a bell?
 
Chicago definitely stands out amongst America's big cities. Mostly not for a good reason. There were more children killed in the last school year in Chicago than any other city. Most of the city looks like crap. Parking and taxes are ridiculous. Nobody likes the mayor because they all know he's crooked, yet they will not vote anyone else in. I would reckon 95% of the people in Chicago can't name the person who last ran against Daley for mayor. Even after the Cubs losing after everyone in Chicago foolishly thought they had won everything, the fans will say next April "this is our year". And they'll actually believe it. You gotta love Chicago.

PRESIDENT CLINTON BLAMES HIMSELF AND DEMS FOR CRISIS

I have to say it. I don't like the guy. Haven't since his first term in office. But damn this guy is a genius! He is so cleverly, subtly undermining the Obama/Biden ticket without looking like he is that I find it incredible. He's able to give that speech at the DNC and do stump speeches in Florida praising Obama, and then he's blaming himself and the dems for the housing crisis. He then praised republicans without mentioning McCain specifically for trying to get something done in 2005. We know who he meant though because McCain cosponsored the bill in the Senate to regulate  and give oversight on GSE's such as Fannie and Freddie specifically, which was then killed by the "bought and paid for" dems. Now any fan of Clinton knows this man doesn't take responsibility for anything. Only wrong he admitted to was Lewinsky but it took him lying about it first and then fudging around the words even when he did admit to it afterward.  So why now? Cause he hates Obama. This is as easy to spot as an Obama lie. While Obama is trying to take credit for introducing something we've never heard before and blaming republicans for "deregulation", the media is all to happy to be his megaphone.  Clinton's favor for the media has spoiled because they treated Obama with kid gloves and did what they could to take down his wife. Clinton for the first time I can remember is trying to set the record straight. It was his regulation that coaxed these GSE's to give loans to people who couldn't afford them to begin with. Then to his credit, he tried to undo what he had done with republican pressure, but dems wouldn't let him. The republicans tried again in 2005 to put regulations on Fannie and Freddie. It passed in the House but died in the Senate. He then said that if the dems also didn't resist the republican plan in 2005 that this whole mess could have been averted years ago. That's why they call him "Slick Willie". He's slippery as a fish.
 
In an interview with Greta Van Susteren, Clinton was asked what the difference was between an association of David Duke's and Reverend Wright's and Clinton was stumped. He couldn't say anything. He didn't even have his ability to parce words. He could have probably said "you can't compare Wright with the KKK", but Clinton wouldn't want to do that. It would seem that Obama didn't do that bad of a thing by going to that "blame whitey and the Jew" church for twenty years. Then again he couldn't say "there is no difference" because that would be played over and over and would revive that Wright issue with a month left before the election. The dems would never forgive him or Hillary for that. That's why he was stumped. Not that he didn't have the ability to answer it. He did. He just didn't want to give the best answer either way, so he came up with a lame one. I'm sure Obama saw that interview clip and said "that SOB is slick!"
 
I don't like Bill, but there isn't a cooler cat out there. Obama knows Clinton has the power to take him down himself, but instead of doing it overtly with a sharp, quick pull he's doing it a little at a time. Just enough for those people to hear what he's saying. Just enough to show he has no confidence in Obama. Just enough to make sure people remember those things that trouble us about Obama. Clinton isn't done either. It's crunch time now. You think Bill is going away? Not a chance.

TERRORIST BASEBALL

For those of you confused at the title of my blog, let me esssplain. Baseball is America's most historic pastime. Terrorism in the Arab World seems to be theirs. Do I need to explain everything? : ) Baseball has Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Hank Aaron, Sandy Koufax, Jackie Robinson and many more iconic figures that are part of Americana. The Arab World has Osama Bin Laden, Sheik Abdul Rahman (the blind Arab dude with the Santa Claus hat), Mohammad Atah, Yasser Arafat, and Ahmad Yassin are the icons of the Arab World.

When there is nothing to do, you hate. We have baseball. We also have other things to do. We're too busy to hate for the most part. Plus, we outgrew our western Europe and Viking history. Thanks to the Greek and Roman cultures I must say. While the Greeks were inventing democracy, western Europe was never bathing. While the Greeks were thinking, western Europe was busy scratching their butts with axes. While the Greeks were building society, western Europe was barely saying "orf". I think orf meant "food". God bless them Greeks! They showed us the way. Our melting pot has made us advance swiftly. Adventurous people from all over the world came here, and so became our adventurous spirit. We like to have fun too. Baseball is fun. That's why it took off to such great heights. No sport has the iconic heroes like baseball does in America. These guys were real heroes to Americans. Joe DiMaggio was a hero to every Italian and Yankee fan. The Yankees have a slew of icons in their history. They are the Al Qaeda of American baseball teams. The big boys.

In the Arab World it seems they live to hate. From what I see on television, I don't buy the "it's not most Arabs" cliche. In the Palestinian areas of Israel there were celebrations in the streets when 9/11 happened. They were joyously celebrating while knowing thousands of people have just died. Arafat had his police threaten to kill members of the media who shot these celebrations on video. They didn't keep all of the cameramen from shooting, however. With that though, there were more than two-thirds of Arabs in a poll saying 9/11 was morally unjustifiable. One third is way too high still, but that's nothing like what we see. When they show Arabs on tv, they always show them with guns, swords, or burning things in effigy. There is a huge disconnect here from this poll and what I see on tv. Usually they show Arabs protesting over something either so small or totally inconsequential to their lives. "The Pope called us violent people?! It's time to kill someone!" Which they did. It seems most of them sees terrorism as their sport, and they play it well. The poll tells a completely different story.

I don't know if they work, come home, treat their wives respectfully, kiss their children, or anything we do and take for granted. I do know they wanted to kill a woman for allowing her students to call a teddy bear "Mohammad" though. I do know they have a fixation with beheading people. I know they love to treat women as poorly as possible too. How can these fathers look at their young daughters, knowing what's ahead of them, and not do everything in their power to see they are not lashed for being raped in the future? I don't know. One woman I know of in Iran was executed because she had sex with an older, unmarried man. Her name was Atefeh Rajabi and she was only sixteen years old. She claims she was sexually assaulted. They hung her in front of a crowd by a crane. While she fought for her life, with her last breaths she kept repeating "repentance". The law there states that when someone says "repentance" that they are given at least another appeal. People who are so hellbent on upholding Islamic Law broke the law. This was a young, beautiful woman who died after possibly being sexually assaulted by an older man. Sickening and intolerable.

I even see kids out there with AK-47's protesting with their fathers, wanting blood. They have no idea what they're doing. They are kids. Our kids here are playing video games, basketball, football, soccer, and yes, baseball. Theirs shout to kill people right along with their fathers. Chips off the old block. I guess soccer is big in the Arab World, but maybe it's only the moderates who are out there playing soccer. Maybe that's why their voices aren't heard. They know their idiotic neighbors are chanting for someone's death, but they'd rather play soccer. They'd rather have fun than rally against the haters. The ones who are out there protesting all of the time though have no heroes like DiMaggio, Ruth, Williams, Mays, Koufax, Ripken, Griffey, Jeter, Mantle, Robinson, or Aaron. They have no heroes. They have martyrs.

THE DAY AFTER THE ELECTION

These are events of what I believe will happen the day after the election. Barack Obama has just lost. The media are all up in arms over the result and the loony left will throw their tantrum.

                                               NBC

 "Nightly News With Brian Williams"  Brian Williams - "As many of you last night saw, probably somewhere else, Senator John McCain is now President-elect John McCain. He won by a wider margin than what we were expecting. The polls had him slightly higher than Barack Obama last week but Senator McCain's victory was by a wider margin than what the polls were suggesting. Hold on for a second, I need some tissue. Our Obamessiah has just gone down in defeat."

                                            MSNBC

"Nobody's Watching With Keith Olbermann"  Keith Olbermann - "This just goes to prove to me that I am smarter than everyone else in the world and even I don't know why I have a show. I knew this racist country would vote for that nazi McCain. I wished he had been tortured to death years ago. If that would have happened our country would be better off now, and I would be beaming about President-elect Barack Obama. As many of you know, I am in love with him. I don't care who knows. I want to be his mistress. You think I'm joking? I'm not. I want this man bad. Barack, call me. I'll comfort you. All of you viewers, I want you to email me with your thoughts."

                                                 CNN

"The Situation Room With Wolf Blitzer"  Wolf Blitzer - "What do you make about the Bradley Effect in this election?

Donna Brazile- "Well it obviously happened in this case..."

Wolf Blitzer- "Excuse me, Donna. I just want to explain the Bradley Effect to our viewers. The Bradley Effect has to do with polls indicating non-white candidates being higher than what the election results show against white candidates."

Donna Brazile- "Right. As I was saying that this definitely happened in this election. Some poll numbers had McCain ahead and some had Obama ahead. The Newsweek poll had Obama up by eighteen points, but McCain had a pretty comfortable victory when you just look at the vote total and not the electoral votes."

                                                 NBC

Back to "Nightly News With Brian Williams"  Brian Williams- "Barack, where did our love go? Wait, was that on air? Woops. Sorry about that. Okay we're back. Nevermind me ladies and gentlemen. Hope died last night and I'm just a bit sad. Anyway, what do you make of the Bradley Effect, Mr. Dean?"

Howard Dean- "This goes to show in this country a liar like McCain can win over our lord, saviour, and messiah, Barack Obama. Obama did everything right. He never made a clear stance. Had purposeful ambiguity. Worked very hard at that. We had our allies such as Moveon.org and the DailyKos hammer McCain hard calling him a 'nazi'... what else... and we still lost? This goes to show this country still has a problem with race."

Brian Williams- "Didn't Obama's position in being the democratic nominee show this country has overcome a lot with race?"

Howard Dean- "Your Obamessiah will not like you asking that question."

                                        NY Times Front Page

"As our hope for change is lost, we must understand that we are not Europe. We aren't perfect in other words. Obama gave great speeches that inspired us without ever saying anything of substance, so what happened? The Bradley Effect, that's what. This racist country wasn't ready for a black President. There's no other way to look at it. Obama spoke well. He tried to take both sides of just about every issue. He took a stand, dammit! He was change! Doesn't America understand that?! Roooosebuuuud."

                                      Foxnews
 
"Mr. Rove, do you think why Obama lost was because not many people knew who he was?"

Karl Rove- "Well what you said is partly correct. The country didn't get to know Barack Obama and it was scary that he even got this close when you look at it. He never took a strong stand on any issue besides Iraq, and he even went back and forth over that a bit. This country decided that they knew John McCain a lot better and trusted him more because of it."

                                             MSNBC

Back to "Nobody's Watching With Keith Olbermann"  Keith Olbermann- "One lousy, stinking email? That's all I get is one email? Who sent this gem? Oh, it's mom. It says 'son, you suck. I just flipped on for a second and I couldn't stand listening for too much longer. But since I'm your mother and you wanted us to email you I did. How are you son? It's okay you came out of the closet and confessed your love for Obama. He's a lovely man. Sure this is your life's choice? Not that there's anything wrong with that. Love, mom.' Gee, thanks mom. Hey, what are you doing with the lights? Somebody turn on the lights. We're doing a show here!"

Producer- "Not anymore we're not. We just got the ratings in for last night. Five people watched your show. We're all fired."

The truth is that John McCain will have won because Barack Obama shouldn't have even been in the position he's in. He has done nothing. His associations with Jeremiah Wright, that church, Father Pfleger, Tony Rezko, William Ayers, Bernardine Doehrn are highly suspect at best. All anyone will know about Barack Obama is that he was a good speaker when he spoke about nothing that really matters. When he spoke of actual issues he always stuck his foot in his mouth. Obama said at the Saddleback Forum on the issue of when a baby has rights said "that's above my paygrade." That's not a stance. Nuance is for coffee shop debates. There will be no Bradley Effect in this election. It will be a "We Didn't Trust Obama Effect". It's spoken everyday by even democrats who fawn over him that America doesn't yet know Barack Obama. He is one election day away from becoming our President. That's why he will lose. America gave him a chance to show himself. He just chose not to. Ambiguity will not become a President.

THE FUTURE REVOLT ON WASHINGTON

The song and dance of Washington is all too well known by those who pay attention to politics. It's not just the voting that we can all see coming, but the bickering and partisan politics both before and after the vote is where the real play happens. For those who pay attention, you know the lines before they are said. The blame game. The credit hogging. The bitterness when things don't go their way. It's all been written well before our time. Same lines, different characters. Except for nowadays we can see everything with the internet and 24/7 cable news. The desperation level of politicians now is at an all time high as well. The dems finally have a lord and saviour. They don't like putting religion in the spotlight, and some don't even have a religion outside of atheism, but Barack Obama is their lord. His so-called great speech on race was his "sermon on the mount". It doesn't matter to them that his speech on race wasn't supposed to be a speech on race at all. It was supposed to be him answering why he went to that "blame whitey and the Jew" church for twenty years. No explanation can be good enough for nondelusional people so he came up with this general speech on race, all the while throwing his grandmother under the bus. That wasn't a great speech at all. It was just a smokescreen with tangerine trees and marmalade skies. Many fell for it. Both dems and the media are his Obamasciples.
 
In the case of the mortgage lending crisis and the proposed bailout, let me remove the smokescreen so we can all see clearly at the events that transpired. While the dems are crying for regulation with main stream media being their megaphone, it was regulation that created the mess in the first place. During the Clinton Administration they lowered the standards of GSE's to sell homes to people of lower incomes without good credit. The government forced the lenders into giving risky loans. That drove housing prices up since houses were in more demand now that anyone could basically afford one with the help of government intervention. That affected not just lower priced homes, but all homes. The Clinton Administration were the first ones to see the derailment ahead, so they tried to stop their own train. With these GSE's making so much money from the new government initiative, they bought members of both halls of congress. It was mostly democrats, but republicans also took in money. Since 1989, dems took 57% of the money given by the lenders Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Barack Obama somehow was second on the list despite only being there since 2005. Early on, a community activist group called ACORN was also receiving money from the government to help get housing for lower income earners. Barack Obama was their lead council and has been involved with them since, whether it be working for them or receiving money from them. Now there are members of ACORN who are in jail for voter fraud. ACORN is well known in the Chicago area for fraudulent voter registration. They stand to get bailed out of the lending crisis also. It's been reported that $100 million of the $700 billion bailout was to go to ACORN.
 
Before the crisis though, the dollar fell, but people kept buying homes they couldn't afford all with the lenders playing the part of Bela Karolyi saying "you can do it, you can do it". There were also the geniuses who were making $40,000 a year thinking they can be a Donald Trump-type tycoon and buying two or more homes thinking that they could sell them without hardly any money spent for a $30000 profit within a month. Since the dollar fell, incomes went down. So did our ability to buy homes. Woops! Now those idiot investors can't sell that extra home. Now they're stuck with something they haven't the ability to pay for. This happened for years.
 
In 2005 the House passed a bill that would rein in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and give oversight on these lenders. President Bush backed the bill. John McCain cosponsored the bill in the Senate saying "For years I have been concerned about the regulatory structure that governs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac – known as government-sponsored entities or GSEs – and the sheer magnitude of these companies and the role they play in the housing market." The dems, bought and paid for killed the bill. They wouldn't allow a vote. The power of filibuster. Guess who was also a senator at the time... yep. You got it. Barack Obama. What did he do? Nothing. Just like he did as an Illinois state senator. Nothing. Voted present 180 times. Just like he did while congress was working on the bailout. Nothing. The Cowardly Lion all of the sudden is the King of Washington all because he stayed back. Obama now has two former CEO's of Fannie Mae (Jim Johnson and Franklin Raines) on his campaign as advisers, and one former vice chair (Jamie Gorelick) who left Fannie Mae amidst in scandal.
 
Out of the blue two weeks ago President Bush said the sky was falling. Now he had to know beforehand. Bernanke had to definitely know. Henry Paulson had to definitely know. So why the rush? Inaction when there should have been action months ago. Would anything have been done? Not with the dems in control. They weren't in control in 2005 and they were able to keep the bill to rein in these lenders from coming to a vote in the Senate. They definitely wouldn't have allowed anything to happen months ago. That's when President Bush and every republican worth their salt should have come to the American people and said "there is a crisis looming the likes of which we haven't seen in decades and the dems won't bring this up for debate". They did not. Now to the public that doesn't pay attention to the news or simply doesn't have time to, the dems look like the good guys. The media is their megaphone afterall. Republicans failed big time to make this an issue before it became crisis mode. If the public would have heard of this crisis looming months ago, the dems would be blamed now and they would have been forced to work out something. Yeah, you're right. Not Obama. You got me.
 
Now we are in full crisis mode. Before the vote, Nancy Pelosi attempted to deflect all blame from her ineptness and the dems "bought and paid for" status by blaming the bad ole republicans for the whole mess. There were republicans to blame for not voicing this a long time ago and some were also bought and paid for, but it was the dems who were really bought and paid for. When the vote failed, some blamed the failure on Pelosi's speech saying republicans had their feelings hurt. Barney Frank, a big reason why we're in this mess to begin with, said if someone gives him the twelve names of the republicans who supposedly switched their votes because their feelings were hurt, that he'd go and talk uncharacteriscally nice to them. Many laughed. I suppose he means he would offer those republicans membership into the homosexual call-boy ring he was involved with. Larry Craig stood up and said "okay!", but then said he wasn't really gay. Pelosi blamed McCain and the republicans for not bringing enough republicans in to pass the bailout bill. She didn't mention that with her failure as Speaker of the House that 94 members of her own party voted "no" to the bill. Let me put it to all of you straight. This bill didn't need ONE republican to pass it. Not one. So the dems playing partisan politics and blaming republicans for their own party's problems is nothing new. We've seen it before. This one would be particularly funny if there wasn't so much at stake. Things are going to Hell in a handbasket quickly. Our government has failed us one more time. Anyone thinks this is the last time?
 
We need a new bill that won't bailout idiots. We need a new bill that won't bailout those who are paying members of congress to bail them out. The people have spoken. No issue in our time has the people spoken with a louder voice. Not on Iraq. Not on the "amnesty" bill. This bill that was forced down our throat with them saying "go ahead and take it" was regurgitated back into their faces. We screamed loud and clear "no bailout of jackasses!" Even with a possible depression looming, our voices are loud. And yes, we do know the consequences. We know them all too well. But if this isn't fixed in the correct way, then we will have a government that got the okay to fail us worse in the future. We will give an okay to those who failed with their investments so they can say "well there's no risk for me" in the future. The lenders will be able to practice the way they had been for the past two decades knowing the government would bail them out. Then imagine if the bill would have passed and they were unable to pay back the taxpayers (AKA Washington, no taxpayer would be getting a check back...please), there would be a depression for sure. Not only would we be one more trillion dollars in debt, but there would be no improvement in our lending and political practices. That would ruin our country for sure. We are one step away from being a totally broken country. They are one step away from having the good citizens revolt and go to Washington and physically kick out everyone there and thus having a true democracy. Maybe executing all lobbyists. All we need is George Washington, John Adams, John Hancock, Thomas Jefferson to rewrite our government once again. Maybe we should allow cloning afterall, eh?

SALAD IS MURDER!

In Switzerland, they came up with a "plant's bill of rights". Let me repeat that. In Switzerland, they came up with a "plant's bill of rights". If you're reading that and thinking it's either a joke (which I've been known to make) or something besides a nightmarish scenario, then you're wrong. You see, attorneys representing dandelions are suing on their behalf. Evidently, dandelions are PO'd that children keep pulling them out of the ground and doing that "Mary had a baby and its head popped off" game. Okay, that's a joke. Seriously though, government officials there are angered that humans are doing to plants what they like. People eat them. People kill weeds. People mow grass. In Switzerland now, this may be unacceptable to them.

The panel that was commissioned unanimously (yes unanimously) said that to kill plants arbitrarily is morally wrong because just like human beings, they are alive. I've been wondering when we were going to come to this and now we have. This is another strike from the nutty left fringe to make human life expendable in order to save Mother Earth. First it was "meat is murder". Second it was "man is going to melt the Earth". Now it's "salad is murder". Next it will be "man must be rendered extinct for the good of our planet". Watch.

The Swiss, who took the high moral ground in WWII by being "neutral" but helped the Nazis rob the Jews, now think if you go to a salad bar that you are a rabid anti-plantite. An anti-plantite is someone who hates plants. Okay, I made that up but I think I just might submit that one to Merriam-Webster's site. Too late. I just did it. If you go to a salad bar and use ham or chicken chunks, you should be ashamed of yourself. You're murdering just about all of life on Earth. Murderer!

I know it says "arbitrarily killing", but who are the arbitrators? What will be the factors in their judgment? What conditions of eating plants will they find acceptable? Will these people accept you growing a garden and eating what you grow? I grow a garden every summer and eat from it. Damn good stuff. Could you imagine some government official saying "sir, the way you cut that pepper is cruel and inhumane. You're under arrest." Just think of it. If PETA had its way, that's exactly the kind of law they would have for those who eat meat. Meat is murder, afterall. PETP will say "salad is murder". PETP just isn't as catchy is it? Sounds like a burp. "PETP... oh excuse me."

I know people on the right are made fun of all of the time by celebrities and intellectuals, but this is as whacky as it gets. Of course intellectuals in the coming years will actually try to make you believe that what the Swiss did made sense and will hope the rest of the world adopts their insanity. Maybe they'll allow you to pull that tomato off the vine as long as you inject the tomato and the plant with some sort of anesthetic before you do. To pull the grapes off the vine without anesthetic is just cruelty they cannot sit idly by and take. Neither will they let you just pull a head of lettuce out of the ground without anything to numb its pain. Don't you hear it screaming in agony? Salad is murder!

MCCAIN POINTS OUT OBAMA'S LIES IN DEBATE

Last night, McCain cleverly pointed out things that Obama has said in the past. Things Obama said weren't true last night. John McCain pointed out that Barack Obama stated months ago that he would meet head to head with leaders of rogue nations without preconditions. These leaders included Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Hugo Chavez, and Raoul Castro. Obama tried to at first fog the issue by saying we should meet with these countries and have negotiations. McCain was prepared for this since this is what Obama's new twist has been for quite some time. That is also something we heard the left spin the "without preconditions" statement by Obama into as well. That we should negotiate with these countries. McCain pointed out something that any educated person already knows. That we are always in contact with leaders of these countries. McCain then said plainly that Obama said that he would meet with Ahmadinejad without preconditions. A person who keeps threatening to wipe Israel off the map and recently said some more outrageous things at the UN just days ago. Obama said that is not what he said. So who was lying? Obama was.
 
While on a stump speech during the democratic nomination campaign, someone asked Obama if he would meet with rogue leaders such as Ahmadinejad. Obama said he would meet with him. Then at a debate Obama was asked if he would meet with Ahmadinejad WITHOUT PRECONDITIONS in the first year in office. Obama said "I would". Hillary said in two debates that was naive. Obama defended his position in those debates citing President Kennedy saying "we should never negotiate out of fear but we shouldn't fear to negotiate". Now he's acting like that didn't happen. Again, he's relying on the media to not call him out on this because he is their lord. Will they point this out? Not likely. The link to the Youtube clip where he said he would meet without preconditions with Ahmadinejad so clear that even an Obamasciple can understand he lied.
 
Anyone with a brain knows we are always talking to rogue leaders such as Ahmadinejad. It's always going on. But it would be a huge mistake if the leader of our country met with Ahmadinejad without preconditions. Let's look at what happened at Columbia University when Ahmadinejad appeared. Those idiot students seemed to have no idea what his stance on gay people was or what he was really all about. Ahmadinejad chastized the Bush administration over the war in Iraq as well as other things to rounds of applause. It wasn't until someone asked him about homosexuals in Iran when the so-called educated students turned on him. What Ahmadinejad did, thanks to Columbia University, was to show himself to the oppressed Iranians speaking at a prestigious Ivy League school and getting rounds of applause as he spoke out against the United States. What did the citizens of Iran take from that footage? What about those who are rebelling against the oppressive Mullah regime? Bet their hopes were dashed a bit eh? They saw our country, who they thought had their backs, invite their enemy and Mullah puppet to one of their best schools and receive rounds of applause. Disgusting. Our country as a whole legitimized this terrorist puppet vicariously through Columbia University. Now imagine the footage Ahmadinejad would have to show his citizens meeting with President Obama. Any progress of a regime change from that oppressive regime would be gone.
 
Next lie, McCain pointed out that Obama at first said that when Russia invaded Georgia that "both sides should show restraint". Obama said that wasn't true and that he said "I repeatedly said I strongly condemned the outbreak of violence in Georgia". The violence from who? Who was the cause of the violence? Obama wasn't going to say. More smoke and mirrors from Obama. To prove his frame of mind on this issue, when McCain said right when it happened that "we are all Georgians" and that we should look into Russia's role in the G8, Obama said that what McCain said was "provocative". That we should not prevoke Russia. Now when you hear "both sides should show restraint" and then when McCain takes a clear stance for Georgia and against Russia that McCain was prevoking Russia that should let you know where his frame of mind then was at. Then a few days after the invasion, Obama said after meeting with his inept advisers that we should bring Russia to the UN's Security Council. Problem is Russia has veto power on the Security Council. When Obama and his keystone advisers realized that, THEN they took a stand against Russia. Or perhaps they got wind that word on the American street was that we were against Russia so therefore they should to. Two huge lies McCain called Obama out on. With video footage out there and good memory, we can all factcheck Obama and his erroneous statements and compare them to what he said last night. Huge disparity.

DESPICABLE ANTI-MCCAIN AD

In the most sickening ad I've seen in my life, they had doctors talk about John McCain's melanoma. They talked about how his capacity to govern would be greatly hindered if there was a relapse. They also showed pictures of McCain with fresh scars after surgery to remove the melanoma. This ad is running only on MSNBC. Shocked? Well you shouldn't be unless you are an ostrich. If you're an ostrich, then I will kindly give you a pass. NBC, especially MSNBC has turned into a communistic type propoganda machine. I know we keep hearing about Fox, but please. One channel gets viewers, the other one doesn't. One has people saying they quake in the presence of the person they're covering and that it's hard to be objective, the other doesn't. Andrea Mitchell said that her or no one else in the media that was at the event where Obama said he didn't "look like those guys on the dollar bills" took it as a racial statement and that it was McCain that was making it a racial issue about it for calling Obama on it. I think that's enough to paint a Monet for ya.  
 
The ad was done by two 527 groups called "Brave New PAC" and "Democracy For America". Guess who is head of Democracy For America? James Dean. No, not the dead actor. Howard Dean's brother. Can you believe it? Shocked again? This makes it apparent that lunacy is a hereditary trait afterall. When they are done mapping the human genome, they need to find that gene and eradicate it. We can't have anymore Deans. According to campaign laws, there can be no coordination between a campaign or party with one of these 527 groups. Howard "YEEAAHHH!" Dean is the nutty chairman of the Democratic National Committee. His brother is one who is responsible for putting out a sickening ad about the candidate of the opposite party. There has to be coordination on this somehow. James Dean never said to his brother "hey, wait til you look at this ad about McCain"? Please! The head of Brave New PAC is Robert Greenwald, a far, far-left smear merchant upon the high seas of today's political discourse. He was also a Hollywood director. Don't tell me you're shocked again. I won't give you a pass this time, Mr. (or Ms.) Ostrich.
 
While some have said that McCain dug his own grave with McCain-Feingold's campaign laws, these 527's are so despicable they will backfire. I think they might help McCain by trying to hurt him. The left should know this but they are so desperate that it clouds their judgment. These aren't the smartest people, ya know? They just can't help themselves. They're living out a Pringle's commercial. These rattlesnakes will keep committing suicide. All anyone should do is point out their lunacy, but that's it. You think we've seen the last? Oh, the classless left's band is just getting warmed up. Be ready for "Flight of the Bumblebee" in the coming weeks where you're going to hear that McCain is a nazi (what else) or that he faked his POW struggle. They should know it will backfire but if there's one thing that is a constant, it's that stupid people will always show stupidity. That's what makes them stupid. If you know what you're going to say or do is going to hurt your cause but still do it, you are the epitome of "stupid". You are "stupid" personified. Yet these people are all personal geniuses. People with the viewpoint that no one can be as smart as them or else they could not disagree with anything they can come up with. People who are beyond facts and common sense. They have no boundaries of thought so they have to be right. Left-wing intellectuals who talk about how dumb and misled those on the right are should take in what Forrest Gump's mom always said. Stupid is as stupid does.

MCCAIN LOOKS PRESIDENTIAL WHILE OBAMA LOOKS CLUELESS

John McCain has gone to Washington to try to get something done about this mortgage lending crisis. He already tried in 2005 but the democratic Senate killed the bill, not allowing a vote. Back in 2005, the House passed a bill to put regulations and oversight on lenders such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. President Bush backed the bill. The House saw the crisis coming. The Senate took the bill, cosponsored by John McCain, and threw it in the trash. The senate dems along with some republicans wouldn't allow a vote. Barack Obama was in the Senate in 2005 as well. If you can find anything he said on this subject back then, then I will call you "the world's greatest treasure hunter" because I can't find it. I've looked tirelessly so I can post it in one of my blogs. I can't find anything Obama said in 2005 on the subject of oversight upon these fraudulent lenders. Why did he say nothing? Why did senate dems kill the bill? Because Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac bought senate dems. The top three were all dems. The information was gathered from 1989 to 2008. Somehow with Barack Obama only being in the Senate since 2005, came in second. Only Chris Dodd, who has been a senator for a long time received more. John Kerry came in third. There will be a link to the stats at the bottom. Not coincidentally Lehman Brothers also gave money to senators. Obama also came in second in most money received by Lehman. McCain also took in quite a bit from Lehman, but he has been a senator for a lot longer and he tried to rein them in. He was ruling against Lehman's as well as the other lenders' interests.
 
While McCain is trying to get something done besides the President's socialist bailout proposal, Obama is out campaigning. McCain is trying to also postpone the debate while Obama said he will be there with or without McCain on Friday night. I heard idiots in the media (The Obamasciples) say McCain is afraid to debate Obama. I haven't laughed this hard since watching Blazing Saddles. Those idiots won't mention that McCain tried to get more debates with Obama and wanted to have joint townhall (no pun intended hehe) meetings to answer questions from real people. Obama has said in the past that all of these issues we face that he is more than happy to have a debate with McCain on, but those proposals fell on deaf ears. Obama doesn't do well with debates. That is something that even dems know. McCain was a POW for five years. The last thing he's afraid of is to debate a lightweight with a record of nothing who lost every debate he had with Hillary Clinton. All McCain would have to do Friday night at the debate would be to say "I tried to avert this crisis in 2005, but Obama and the senate dems wouldn't allow a vote". Anyone can look it up on the computer. It would be the total truth. That would in itself win him the election. It would probably also cost the dems many seats in congress because it would be known the top people that took money from these fraudulent lenders would be democrats. I'm quite sure McCain is all too eager to bring this up in a debate.
 
Instead McCain is doing something that Harry Reid suggested. Bring in republicans to the table and get a viable bill in place. Reid didn't suggest the same of Obama. McCain called Reid's bluff. Now he looks like a man who's more willing to work for this country and get things done while Obama is saying "call me if you need me". That's nearly a direct quote. Obama is out campaigning with teleprompter in tow while McCain is trying to avert a crisis that is more dire than most Americans seem to realize. If this fails, I'm afraid this country will be headed towards another depression. That's not an exaggeration. That's a fact I hope doesn't get proven correctly. I hope something gets done. One guy is trying. The other is on call.

THE GREAT BERGER CHALLENGE

With the spelling of "Berger" I hope you assumed I wasn't talking about Mickey D's or Wendy's. I'm talking about Sandy Berger. Doesn't sound so appetizing, does it? Sandy Berger was President Clinton's National Security Adviser and longtime friend. He was the one who went into the National Archives and stole the highest of classified documents that dealt with Clinton's strategy on Bin Laden. He did this just before the 9/11 Commission was about to convene and stole them by stuffing the documents down his pants and socks. He admitted to throwing them away but said that he didn't do it deliberately and would take a lie detector test to prove it. Anyone with a clear head knows why he stole the documents and that Clinton put him up to it as to not look bad to America, especially with Hillary poised to run. Everyone knows this I hope. Obviously he lied. This is why he has never actually taken this lie detector test. Boy, he sounds like Bill Clinton himself. Definitely a typical Clinton croney. As the media goes on and on about Skooter Libby revealing the identity of Valerie Plame after she sent in her OWN DAMN HUSBAND (that's good for cover) to Africa, they have all but ignored the Sandy Berger situation. This man stole documents about Clinton's strategy on Bin Laden just before the 9/11 Commission. It doesn't get any scummier than this. Which do you think is the bigger transgression? Which one have you heard more? I arrest my case.

Republican Congressman Dana Rohrbacher (Ca) issued a challenge many moons ago to Sandy Berger. "Take the test you promised to take!" You know and I know this test will never happen. Sandy probably has figured out after numerous attempts that he can't fool the lie detector test, so that's why he hasn't taken one publicly. The things that test would reveal eh? "Did Bill Clinton put you up to stealing those documents?" "No." That graph would look like a seismograph during a 9.0 earthquake. The needle would jump off the page. Guess what would happen though... nothing. Nothing would happen to Clinton or Berger because the media would bury the story except for Fox and perhaps ABC. The blogosphere would also go nutty.

Berger then became an "unofficial adviser" for Hillary Clinton during her run for the White House, meaning he wasn't getting paid. Oh, he was getting paid. He took one for the team. There's no way he wasn't going to be paid. Even with Obama getting the nomination and we have all of these different crisises, we should have heard more about the "Great Berger Challenge" but we didn't. Sandy Berger has become a forgotten man in the news cycle. He is breathing a sigh of relief. Plus he never did a day in prison. Paris Hilton somehow got punished more than Berger did for a much lesser thing. All she's guilty of is being known for no reason (besides sex tape) and driving with a suspended license. Berger stole the highest of classified documents out of the National Archives dealing with Clinton's strategy on Bin Laden just before the 9/11 Commission was about to convene. One thing definitely outweighs the other.
What will become of Berger? In four years from now, it will be Hillary Clinton as the democratic nominee going up against President McCain and Berger will be a high ranking adviser with his great transgression behind him. The liberal press will probably apologize to Hillary for treating that lightweight as their lord and saviour and will then do her bidding by not reporting on one Sandy Berger, but I won't forget. Conservatives never forget. That's why the elephant is the symbol for the Republican Party. We never forget.
