Put me down as suspicious of Sarah Palin, still. I can’t believe she’s as dumb as she acts. I think she’s faking it, in order to look amazing during the up-coming VP debate. Already the bar has been placed somewhere near the core of the earth… as low as it can go. If she shows [...]

Vote by mail has begun in some states! If you were waiting for the last minute (like me) to DONATE to Barack Obama, that minute is now! Note, that page is for my own little fundraiser thing. You can also donate from their main page here. You can donate as little as 15 bucks, and [...]

There’s all this hand-wringing that “Oh, McCain couldn’t possible get rid of Palin, he’d look weak!” That’s not true at all. His good friend W has show the way here. You never fire anyone, they just pick a reason (spend more time with the family) and resign. If she leaves, it’ll be something like that. [...]

My understanding of the current market situation:
* Mortage companies gave out loans to people who couldn’t pay them back
* Deregulated investment companies bought those loans, all bundled together into tricky investment packages
* People defaulted on their loans, and the money vanished, leaving companies with billions of debt
* Investment companies played a [...]

You can grow almost any fruit or vegetable without using pesticides. That’s pretty damn amazing.

It’s no secret that Republicans hated McCain before he became their candidate. He’s kinda weak and snivelly, and they never liked his ‘maverick’ attitude, since that just meant he’d vote against republican positions 10% of the time or so.
The question is, will the Republican backlash against McCain begin before or after he loses the [...]

I wrote a post to this effect a few days ago, but deleted it because it got too rambling. But, I’m seeing others start to say it, so I’ll give it a shot.
It’s common for there to be a few lies in political speeches. Yeah, it sucks, but that’s just the way it is. Progressives [...]

If Sarah Palin is above doing media interviews, I think the media as a whole should return the favor. Once she wants interviews, the media should all snub her for a few weeks. Being reported on by the media is not a right, any more than it is required for anyone to speak to the [...]

Take a note, Sarah and John, this is how it’s done:
I forgot how good Biden is. I *really* can’t wait for the vp debates. Oh it’ll be so much fun.

After her big, successful speech that she didn’t have anything to do with creating, Palin is now disappearing, and will not accept any real media interviews for a while.
I don’t frankly care what she has to say. But, Republicans, surely you want to know what the person you’re voting for is like, yah? Unless [...]
