John McCain and Sarah The Celebrity keep going on and on about how Barack Obama doesn’t use the word “victory” in regard to Iraq or “any of the wars America is fighting”. (Which I guess is GOP code for ‘unpatriotic’)
Here’s General Patraues saying he doesn’t think he’ll ever use the word “victory” in regard to Iraq.

The U.S. Ambassadors to Bolivia and Venezuela have been expelled this week from South America. An act of political immaturity on the part of these two South American countries, we should respond, in kind, and with clarity of purpose. In other words, we should provide exit papers for their Ambassadors in Washington, DC and begin to restrict U.S. foreign assistance to these countries. U.S. taxpayers need not foot the bill for South American shenanigans.
These two leader are populist heroes, in their own minds. These expulsions are symbolic, done for domestic and regional consumption for short-term political gain. And, in the end, the only people who will suffer from these political missteps will be the Venezuelans and Bolivians, not the United States. Rather than work to strengthen freedom, democracy, and the economy, these leaders have been doing the opposite. They are leading from the rear-view mirror with outdated, statist, and undemocratic models [...]

The Associated Press, Swedish state television and North Vietnamese photographers must be part of the vast right-wing conspiracy now too…
A former reporter from Swedish broadcaster SVT, 71-year-old Erik Eriksson, told The Associated Press he found the video in the network’s archives while researching a book he was writing about his experiences as a Vietnam War correspondent.
The footage was filmed by a North Vietnamese photographer with whom Eriksson had contracted to film the release of U.S. prisoners of war. AP Television News acquired exclusive worldwide distribution rights to the SVT footage from March 14, 1973…
McCain grimaces as he steps off a bus with other prisoners. He has a pronounced limp and needs to put both feet on the same step before continuing but is not using crutches.
The prisoners stand in rows until a Vietnamese official calls their name. McCain, like other prisoners, briskly walks up to salute and shake hands with [...]

By NEDRA PICKLER, Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK - John McCain is mocked as an out-of-touch, out-of-date computer illiterate in a television commercial out Friday from Barack Obama as the Democrat begins his sharpest barrage yet on McCain’s long Washington career.
The new fighting spirit comes as McCain has been gaining in the polls and some Democrats have been expressing concern the Obama campaign has not been aggressive enough. Obama’s campaign says the escalation will involve advertising and pushes made by the candidate, running mate Joe Biden and other surrogates across the country.
“Today is the first day of the rest of the campaign,” Obama campaign manager David Plouffe says in a campaign strategy memo. “We will respond with speed and ferocity to John McCain’s attacks and we will take the fight to him, but we will do it on the big issues that matter to the American people.”
The newest ad showcasing their [...]

Matt Damon raises the horrifying scenario of Palin moving over to the Oval office.
A very real possibility - let’s not forget that McCain is already 72 years old, and nobody lasts forever.
Climate change is already a huge question mark hanging over the future of mankind. But would the world survive the Barracuda President?

Turns out, he’s not actually from Mars… Who knew?
I recently had the pleasure of contacting Mr Carter, the honorable US Representative for my Congressional district, in regards to the abhorrent levels of immigration our proud country now enjoys. And make no mistake: when I say, “immigration,” I mean both the legal and the illegal varieties.
The event that made this conversation both necessary and possible was the confluence of (1) a trip by the likes of none other than William T. “Bill” Gates to Washington, DC, and (2) the Mr Carter’s coming re-election bid. I have come to realize that every time Mr Gates flies from Washington (the state) to Washington (the city) — if he’s not fending off charges of breaching antitrust laws — it’s to bemoan the perennial dearth of “qualified” software and design engineers.
At this point in the discussion, one must be aware that when Mr Gates says [...]

All the huh-hah about the pendatang issue is coming to and end finally (hopefully). But one of the pendatang among us (Kenny Sia) got some funny post. Go and have a look:
1) Chinese Squatters
2) Ah Mad Strikes Back
Damn funny.
Anyway, all these ‘commotions’ over the pendatang issue for the past few weeks had me wondered if really the gomen going to fall come 16th Sept, will all of us, the pendatang be facing another 513 ? Scary thoughts…..
God bless us.

This is getting to be down right ridiculous. If it wasn’t an election I would almost be splitting my sides with laughter. The Barbie Palin interview that took place last night was comical at best. Considering that yesterday was suppose to be a day of no politics, I wonder who in McCain’s campaign thought it would be wise for her to do the opposite? It came off as other politicans respecting 9-11 while she blatantly used it as an opportunity, which showed a clear sign of disrespect. I digress, Barbie Palin was poised but confused and it was evident to see that she did not have a clue to quite a few important questions. Which I wrote about yesterday. Today post is about what others had to say about her speech in Alaska.
The WaPo with a headline entitled Barbie Palin Links Iraq to Sept. 11 In Talk to Troops:
Gov. Sarah [...]

Yet another clear case of media bias: The Washington Post clearly distorts the words of Sarah Palin. See for yourself:
