The Liberal Left is Transparant to the Democrats Too

This is a great article on why a democrat mother is voting for McCain/Palin this fall. She says it much better than anyone I've heard so far and it's absolutely worth a read. She is also from Colorado, and I'm almost sure her son with down syndrome was in the after school program I worked at several years ago.

Oh the other big point to take from this article is that the Democrat Party is not the same as it used to be. As Glenn Beck puts it, "It's been hijacked." It's been taken over by self proclaimed progressives, and if you want a history project do some research on the progressive party of the early 20th century (which was started by Teddy Roosevelt, but it was largely rejected by Republicans as a whole). Woodrow Wilson and Margaret Sanger, founder of planned parenthood, and her views on eugenics are particularly interesting.

Was I The Only One Who Saw Juno?

I really thought this crazy, mad-cap, feel-good film had been seen by a lot more people than me. But maybe I'm the only one who saw it, because I thought teenage pregnancy was supposed to be FUN!!

I also thought that the end of the movie showed that a successful professional woman could adopt a baby and be a single mom while still being successful even without a low-life husband to help her out. Oh and I remember hearing one time that it should be ok for 14 year olds to get birth control and abortions without a parents permission because they were old enough to make their own decisions.

Hmmmmm...

But now we are led to believe that Sarah Palin is to blame for her "Juneau Juno's" pregnancy because she doesn't stay home with her children and she shouldn't be running for office so she can spend more time with her family and her special needs child who statistics show most people would have aborted anyway.

Hmmmmm...

The more I think about it the more I believe that John McCain isn't a senile old fool who doesn't know what he's doing, but he is very shrewed and calculating in his decisions.

Some will say he didn't know about the pregnancy, but there is no way he didn't. And whether intentional or unintentional I think the genius of this pick is not that she is the most conservative candidate on a presidential ticket since Reagan, or that she took down the Republican leader in Alaska on ethics after she was put in a position of power to try and get her to conform to the party and having a person like that who will hold McCain's feet to the fire is the only thing that will bring the real conservatives in to support the semi-liberal presidential candidate, but it is that the hypocrisy of the Democratic/Progressive party is now exposed on such a grand scale that you have to be an idiot not to see it. The best part is no one had to point it out (even though that is what I'm doing in this post).

Biden said she was hot, and the media is criticizing her for just being a pretty face and then showing pictures of her calfs. (sexist!) Now it's not our fault that they haven't had any good looking calfs in their party, and I would bet my life that Palin would never stay with an adulterer just to keep power. I would also like to know how Hilary became the champine for women's lib and Sandra Day O'Conner gets ridiculed, or how they are all for a black man becoming powerful but yet they HATE Clarence Thomas.

Hmmmmm....

Obama said she was inexperienced. (We all know experience is his greatest trait.) She is the only one on either ticket that has executive experience. In other words she is the only one who's been in charge of anything. And the best part is when she says she will cut excess government spending you know she will because on the first day of the job she put the old governor's private jet up for sale on Ebay. She accomplished more to cut government spending in one day then the other 3 senators combined in all their years in the senate.

Hmmmmm....

So needless to say I am all aboard on the McCain Train, and I still struggle with some of his policies and I will do my best to make sure those are fought against if he ever tries to put them in place, but he does have one of the most important qualifications a president needs and he proved it this weekend.

He sure knows how to pick GREAT people to put around him.

Scrumtrilescent Political Coverage

I was wondering how in the world Keith could top his adulation of Michelle and Hillary, and now I know there was only one way he could do it, and that was by turning into James Lipton.

And now it's time for a game!!!

Guess which quote is Keith Olbermann and which one is Will Ferrel playing James Lipton.

It's harder than it looks.

"Vote for him or DO NOT, but take from this night that this country can produce men and speakers such...as...that."

"I would love to be able to find something to criticize about it, but I can't."

"That show was delightful. No. No. It was brilliant. No, no, no, no. There is no word to describe its perfection, so I am forced to make one up. And I'm going to do so right now. Scrumtrilescent."

"For 42 minutes, not a sour note, and spellbinding throughout in a way usually reserved for the creations of fiction."

"An extrodinary political statement, almost a fully realized almost a fully realized tucked, crisp, insistant speech, in tone and in the sense of cutting through the clutter akin to the words given to the fictional title character in the Aaron Sorkin film 'An American President.'"

Now for the answers.



Then watch this. Update: I found the real video. This is much better!!

MSNBC: As Fun To Watch As A Train Wreck, But The Ratings Would Be Higher For The Train Wreck

This is fantastic! I love that Joe Scarborough is totally calling people out. Best line of the video is, "If this happened 2 weeks ago it would have been a coronation!"



Oh and Keith, Who needs a shovel?!?





I feel like I'm going to throw up. I'm so glad true, unbiased, journalism is alive and well.

More Crazies From Hot Air TV

So I'm one of the ones that believes that people who feel the need to swear, especially in their casual conversations, are ignorant and don't have a very large vocabulary. Having said that I really debated putting these videos on because there are a few sections where these activists show their true colors with their "colorful language," but fortunately they are brief moments. If you don't want to view it then I will give you a quick rundown, but these are what these people really believe, and it shows how quick they are to go with the crowd and agree with anything without researching or questioning.

These videos are pretty much freak shows for conservatives, entertaining but like the bearded lady or the dog with two heads, you wonder how in the world something like this could exsist and you usually have nightmares after.

So In the first video the guy is going around to see how many comforts these people want to give to guantanamo prisoners. He is getting them to sign a petition to give them Cinemax, and Netflix, and to have Jihad Olympics. Only one guy really questions it and that's mostly because he just doesn't think it's the right thing because the don't use afghan subtitles, but "if they did that would be great." I can't believe how far these people want to go to help known terrorists.



This next video he talks to several people about different things, but one couple actually believes that police work should be like jury duty, and everyone should get a chance to serve, including "undocumented workers." This one lady talks about how she was fake waterboarded, which was having two people dressed as soldiers dump water on her head, and she told them to "make it realistic. I can handle it."
