McCain benefits from less press coverage

Wednesday, August 20, 2008

The McCain campaign has complained because McCain has gotten less press coverage than Obama, but according to an article in a British newspaper, McCain benefits from less coverage because it “means that his errors are ignored.” According to Talking Points Memo, McCain’s errors would “for any other politician who didn’t have the benefit of years of […]

Ah, Life?

Tuesday, August 19, 2008

When asked by pastor Rick Warren at what point does a human being get full human rights, McCain immediately answered “At the moment of conception.” Sounds like a clear answer, but as Time Magazine points out, this quickly gets you into very murky water. About half of all embryos (fertilized eggs) miscarry naturally before they […]

I know you are, but what am I?

Monday, August 18, 2008

Republican strategist John Feehery is shown on Hardball, making fun of Obama’s call for a UN Security Council resolution on the conflict between Russia and Georgia, saying that Obama looks weak for calling for a resolution rather than acting tough.

It’s the same technology they use for John McCain.” -Craig Ferguson “John Edwards, presidential aspirant and author of the famed claim that there are two Americas, was apparently only faithful to his wife in one of them.

What’s worse? McCain forgetting the truth or lying?

Saturday, August 16, 2008

McCain’s first marriage is in the news now, partly because John Edward’s infidelities (and how conservatives have condemned him) have brought up the fact that McCain cheated on his first wife and then lied about it repeatedly.
