Oh Really?

McCain is running for George Bush's 3rd term.....interesting. The more I hear comments such as these from Senator Obama:

"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," Obama said. "That's not leadership. That's not going to happen."

"Diplomacy: Obama is the only major candidate who supports tough, direct presidential diplomacy with Iran without preconditions" (From BarackObama.com)

If these are the ideas coming from the Democrat's rock star its time the GOP exercises a little muscle of its own (for once), and let the world know that Barack Obama is running for ta-da a second term of Jimmy Carter's abysmal policies.

As for myself, since I'm so big on using quotes tonight, I chose to believe in an America where.."I like to think; I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. I'm the kind of guy likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder - "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecued ribs with the side order of gravy fries?" I WANT high cholesterol. I wanna eat bacon and butter and BUCKETS of cheese, okay? I want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section. I want to run through the streets naked with green Jell-o all over my body reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly might feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiener" (Mr. Edgar Friendly everyone).

In all sincerity, the moment a Presidential candidate tells the American people they "can't have it a certain way" because other people might be upset about someone having a cool house in the middle of Phoenix, well, thats a "change" to America I will never accept. Not because we deserve the right to be piggish with natural resources, or because somehow God's on our side, but because any and everyone who ever brings up the fact we take in 25% of the world's energy never remembers to mention we donate more food in the form of aid than the rest of the world combined, that our economy is the engine that drives the world (ever noticed how a slide on the American stock market affects the world's stock market?), and in the end, when there is a problem somewhere in the world where the U.S. shouldn't have any presence in the first place, we're the first people to be asked for help. If the rest of the world is going to come to us for every single problem they face, then I think its O.K. if I take a flight to San Diego every summer. And Barack should be O.K. with it as well.

Deep State Blues

Late Monday evening, Deputy Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe announced he was leaving his position effective immediately, somewhat earlier than he had initially disclosed, as he was scheduled to leave sometime mid March. Although somewhat of a surprise, McCabe's departure from the FBI means different things to different people.  Democrats and proponents of the Russia collusion story are taking this as a sign that DJT has his new FBI director Christopher Wray are forcing McCabe out. However big of a stink the opposition can make, a President is within his legal right to put in his team into the Department of Justice, regardless the importance of the position, as it is part of the Executive branch.  That being said, it is important to note McCabe is not being fired, he is resigning from his post.  What makes this newsworthy is the timing.  Hours after McCabe announced he was leaving, the House Intelligence Committee voted along party lines to release an internal ...

Biggest Drain on the Species (3rd Edition)

BDOTS is here ladies and gentlemen! Just to refresh anyone's memory who may have forgot exactly how BDOTS (Biggest Drain on the Species) works, the award is given to an individual who's actions/comments are so blatantly hypocritical and self serving, this person is no longer just a detriment to the overall societal fabric, but an obstruction to the advancement of all human kind, and do I have a good one for you today. So good, in fact, that I am going to write to our candidate directly in hopes he may yet read this. Howard Dean, you have been a great sound bite ever since the 2004 presidential campaign. After your colossal campaign collapse, the Democratic National Party liked what it saw in your "grass roots" style, in which you employed eager volunteers with some new invention called the internet, resulting in a fairly effective money raising machine, and gave you the nod as the new DNC leader. Evidently, the DNC must have also liked the complete ineffectiveness...

Speaking of the Louse (Part 2)

This story just keeps getting better and better. Dec. 12, 2007: "On one occasion, in the fall of 2002, I was briefed on interrogation techniques the administration was considering using in the future. The administration advised that legal counsel for the both the CIA and the Department of Justice had concluded that the techniques were legal. I had no further briefings on the techniques...Jane Harman was briefed more extensively and advised the techniques had in fact been employed." Feb. 25, 2009: "No. No the fact is, they did not brief, well first of all, we're not allowed to talk about what happens there, but I can say they did not brief us with these enhanced interrogations that were taking place. They did not brief us. They were talking about an array of interrogations taht they might have at their disposal. But I can say flat out, they never told us that these enhacement interrogations were being used." April 23, 2009: "It is not appropriate f...
