A Complete Waste of Time

Recently a new debate has begun to rage in the inner circles of Washington on Pennsylvania Avenue and Capitol Street to the outer edges of the heartland on Main Street and First Avenue. USA Today recently chimed in on whether or not we should begin an investigation of George W. Bush and his adminis[...]

Joe the Plumber Symbolizes the McCain Campaign

In Wednesday’s last, and final–thank you, God!–Presidential debate between the walking dead candidate John McCain and the soon-to-be-President Barack Obama, McCain invoked the name of one Joe “the Plumber” more than 20 times. He reached out to him, holding him up as ex[...]

Livin’ la Vida Bloggin’

You betcha’ I am bloggin’ live tonight. Although Blanca has decided to participate in a debate drinking game with some UNC students, I am still on line. We each have to take a shot each time McCain sounds like an angry old man screaming for kids to get off his lawn or uses the ‘N&[...]

Blogging Live from the Debate

I am sitting here on the campus of the the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, waiting for the third and final Presidential debate to begin in just a little over 90 minutes. Unfortunately my gal pal, Ann Coulter, is as dumb a bitch as you all suspected. She sent me to [...][...]

How Low Will It Go?

A lot of very smart people are sitting on television, explaining to us the crazy mixed up world of paper, equity, short-term loans, and market capitalization. Most are telling us to hold tight, that no one will know the minute or the hour of the bottom. But if we all stay calm and [...][...]

Why the Republicans Have Already Lost the Election

This year the Grand Old Party has fallen into the same trap Democrats have fallen before in the past. In 2004, in an attempt to win against an incumbent President in a time of war, they chose a man with an impeccable war record, a national hero, a man of substance and conviction. [...][...]

Why Palin Has Already Lost the Debate

A lot of hay has been made over the soft bigotry of lowered expectations. Some conservatives, notably Kay and Pat Buchanon, have jumped to the defense of Sarah Palin, screaming for McCain to let Sarah be Sarah. Some have drudged up old video of her debate in Alaska in 2006, where she went [...][...]

Most Unpresidential

John McCain is showing some of the worst judgment since a bunch of Japanese admirals thought it would be a lark to bomb some American ships in Hawaii. The Maverick, the War Hero, the Straight Talk Express himself has suspended his campaign today and wants to “postpone” the debate on Frid[...]

Meltdown

Blanca has caught whatever the Filipino equivalent of Montezuma’s Revenge is. She has been glued to the toilet for the past 48 hours, hoping that someone would put her out of her misery. The ordeal started innocently enough, with a trip to Jollibee. For those of you who have never travelled be[...]

God Smites Tim Russert

It looks like God was not happy enough with Tim Russert’s obsequiousness to the Bush Administration and has decided to strike him dead, of an apparent “heart attack.” Tim was Cheney’s “go to” man all during the run up to the War in Iraq. He was a dependable, fair[...]
