This is hilarious. Letterman is none too happy because he was jilted by McCain to “focus on the economy”; McCain then appears on Katie Couric’s show instead: What is even more hypocritical about McCain “suspending his campaign” (whatever that means, considering that he appeared on TV tonight) is that it was Obama who initially contacted […]

This is taken directly from the 2008 Republican Platform: We do not support government bailouts of private institutions. Government interference in the markets exacerbates problems in the marketplace and causes the free market to take longer to correct itself. We believe in the free market as the best tool to sustained prosperity and opportunity for […]

Bush is currently trying to ram his $700 Billion give-away to Wall Street down the throat of Congress, the same way he rammed the Iraq war and the Patriot act. But as Electoral Vote puts it: Even legislators who were easily cowed during the run-up to the Iraq war are beginning to show something that […]

McCain declared Thursday that the Securities and Exchange Commission had turned “our markets into a casino”. This begs the question — since McCain has long been a proponent of “privatizing” Social Security by investing its funds in the financial markets, doesn’t that mean that he wanted to bet your retirement on a casino?

Today, Lehman Brothers Investmant Bank declared bankruptcy, brought down by the subprime mortgage crisis that it helped to create. To give you an idea of how bad this is, consider: The firm was 158 years old. It survived the Great Depression in the 1930s and countless other financial upheavals, but it could not survive its […]

If you came here because you have a dirty mind, it’s not that kind of Brazilian! The McCain campaign (or should we call it the Palin/McCain campaign) has announced the jet that Palin will be using for her “straight talk express” and getting straight to the point, she didn’t buy American. The jet is made […]

On the campaign trail, one of the earmarks that John McCain often made fun of was a request from Montana to study the DNA of bears. McCain would quip “I don’t know if that was a paternity issue or a criminal issue.” But if you look in Palin’s earmark requests for the upcoming year, you […]

I posted this story back in June, but there are new developments. Tom Gosinski, who was fired from the charity run by Cindy McCain when he found out that Cindy was obtaining drugs using illegal prescriptions in his name, has finally decided to talk. According to Gosinski, John McCain used his Senate staff and resources […]

We all know what “spam” is — the bulk email that fills our inbox with crap. Well, it looks like someone is doing the same thing to the New York Times bestseller list, using something called “bulk orders”. Let’s say you write a book and you really want it to be on the bestseller lists, […]
