The “You Stay Classy, Kosbats!” Post Of The Day

Via that Hot Air headlines thingy, Kosbat Inky99 shows the class the Daily Kos is known for. Okay, I just have to diary about this, although in many ways this falls into the “none of our business category”.   But it appears that Pallin’s last child, a baby with Down’s syndrome, may not be hers. […]

Aside: Barry’s First Puppy

For the humor story of the day (though I doubt the HuffPo folks thought it was humor,) This Ain’t Hell has the story on what kind of 1st Puppy Barry should get.

McCain’s VP Pick: It Could Be Is Sarah Palin!

MCain/Palin is up at McCain’s site I cut it in half to fit it on the page. The One’s campaign responds “Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency.  Governor Palin shares John McCain’s commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, […]

Getting Nutty And Hysterical On Illegal Immigration

Woah! In a typical bleeding heart liberal rant, typical meaning overblown and divorced from reality, Anne Denogean at the Tuscan Citizen loses it Illegal immigrants have become the nation’s favorite whipping boy, blamed for everything from causing the collapse of the medical system to botching our orders at the fast food drive-through because of their poor […]

SM Friday-Barry’s Speech: The Change You Never Heard

The Surrender monkey loved the speech, because it basically flipped off anyone who wanted some details. And, if you watched it, you heard the word change. But, not so much what it meant. Charles Babington of the AP (who Keith Olbermann tore into during a normal rant) Barack Obama, whose campaign theme is “change we […]

Good News: Barry To Talk About Change

No, I am not going to watch The One and his speech. For the most part, I have avoided watching most of the conventions, both GOP and Dem, since 1992. Too much spin, too much pageantry and hyperbole, not enought substance. The passion seems to get lost in the backdrops and choreography. They all look […]

Don’t Question Dems Patriotism, Or Their Green Convention!

I mean, seriously, why would we question their reverence for our national icons, such as Isn’t that special? Via Newsbusters thru Red State, which have more pictures, this is behind the scenes at the DNC. How dare you question Dems patriotism! Or their having the greenest convention eveh! Notice what else is in the garbage bags? […]

McCain To Release Major Exciting Ad Tonight

Personally, I seriously doubt McCain will announce his VP pick this Thursday. It would be classless, and, I think he and his folks know that. But, this should be interesting. An ad released while The Messiah rises on his platform like Zeus or Addonis, to preach from the backdrop of Mt. Olympis. Via The Politico, […]

Anbar To Be Handed Over To Iraqi’s

How the hell did this get in to the NY Times? Usually, good news from Iraq stories show up in the Saturday edition. My theory is because all the editors are out getting drunk after a hard week of bashing Bush, Republicans, Conservatives, etc. Maybe they were a lit Wednesday night watching Big Dog speak […]
