The McCain campaign is attacking Obama because he gave a speech standing behind a seal that looks something like the presidential seal. They also implied that Obama committed a crime — even quoting 18 USC Sec. 713: “Whoever, except as authorized under regulations promulgated by the President and published in the Federal Register, knowingly manufactures, reproduces, sells, […]
The governor of Iowa requested that McCain cancel a campaign visit to the flood-stricken state, because that would divert law enforcement away from flood relief efforts in order to provide security for McCain. But McCain refused and went anyway, visiting several sites. This despite the fact that President Bush’s tour of the state diverted hundreds […]
Yesterday, Obama confused conservatives everywhere by announcing that he will not be spending any taxpayer money for his campaign, instead using private donations. Conservatives immediately attacked Obama, not realizing that they are ironically attacking him for doing exactly those things that they claim to love. Next thing you know, conservatives will be telling us that […]
The moral? People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. Republicans should stop taking Michelle Obama’s remarks out of context to smear her, and instead concentrate on real issues. UPDATE: The Jed Report has discovered that Fox News removed McCain’s words saying he didn’t love America from their transcript of the interview. Hmmm, I wonder how […]
I know this story has had way more attention than it deserves, but this video is hilarious:

How many times do we need to get fooled before we wise up? As bubble after bubble in market after market drives up prices, how many times will we just sit there and take it in the wallet as those who are making obscene profits tell us “it is just supply and demand”? The truth […]
At the recent Republican state convention, at least one vendor was selling this button. But why limit the attacks to Blacks? Another button for sale said “Press 1 for English. Press 2 for Deportation”. At least there was one button sold there that said “I will hold my nose when I vote for McCain”. Of course, […]
Well, actually, a cookie recipe. Again. Yes, I know that this seems like a trivial mistake, almost not worth mentioning. And indeed, the first time Cindy was caught stealing recipes I gave it a pass. I mean, it wasn’t like she was stealing drugs! But did she learn? No! Even though she blamed and fired […]
Be sure to watch both videos. The first one made me cry, the second one made me laugh. Thanks to 23/6
On Sunday, the McCain campaign released a list of 30 “prominent democrats and independents” who have joined “Citizens for McCain”. His website claims these are leaders and activists, but you have to wonder if anyone in his campaign actually checked the list before they released it. Take Phillip “Icky” Frye of West Virginia, whose major […]
Gore Vidal gives a short, but cranky interview to the NY Times. A delight to read: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/15/magazine/15wwln-Q4-t.html
First there was Obama Girl, now there is McCain girl, and she’s got a chip on her shoulder!

Cindy and I would like to extend our sympathies to all those who have lost loved ones, and stand ready to help those in […]
