Sarah Palin “According to expense reports, Sarah Palin charged the state of Alaska over $21,000 for her children to travel with her on official business. In fairness to Governor Palin, when she leaves them home alone, they get pregnant.” -Seth Meyers “I’m sure you’ve heard that your average hockey mom, Sarah Palin, went through $150,000 […]
Esquire presents the 10 Congress-critters most deserving of being voted out of office this year: http://www.esquire.com/features/esquire-endorsements-2008/10-worst-members-congress-1108 Pretty evenly split by party – 5 Republicans, 4 Democrats, and 1 Independent (guess who!). My fave is Michele Bachmann, who made their list even before she totally went nutso on Hardball. Here is Esquire’s description of her: One […]
Look at the woman on the right side of the screen, who acts honored as McCain says nice things about Sarah Palin. Priceless.
Yesterday I posted a story about how the financial bailout has turned into a huge boondoggle — a trillion-dollar-plus going-away present from Bush to the large corporations who bought and paid for him. But that story wasn’t the only example. While we are all distracted by the upcoming election, the mining industry has been quietly […]
John was there for me 90% of the time over the last eight years. When you think of John McCain, think of me, George W. Bush. Think of this face. When you’re in the voting booth, before you vote, picture this face right here. A vote for John McCain is a vote for George W. […]
Now that Joe the Plumber didn’t work out so good, McCain seems to be searching around for other “small” business owners. But this is ridiculous. First, at a rally in Sarasota, Florida, J. Robert Long was introduced as a “small businessman” and was dubbed “Bob the Boat Builder” by McCain. But most of Long’s career […]
Reader Aaron Rowe sends this photo he took about 20 miles South of Fort Worth, Texas: There are so many ways this is ironic: Normally billboards like this say to keep the state green, not red, but I guess considering the surroundings it is a little too late for that. While the color red is […]
It was bad enough that the largest newspaper in Alaska endorsed Obama, but now this? This is the governor’s mansion in Juneau, Alaska: This is the house across the street: Thanks to Don (aka Mr. Ed).
I find it ironic that people aren’t more upset about the bailout package that was supposed to fix our economic woes. So far, it looks more like an early Christmas present for the banks and investment houses before the Bush administration leaves office, while simultaneously making our economy worse instead of better — by wasting […]
Today on “Meet the Press”, McCain said that he can “guarantee” a squeaker victory on election day that won’t be clear until late that night. McCain told moderator Tom Brokaw: I guarantee you that two weeks from now, you will see this has been a very close race, and I believe that I’m going to […]
