I recently read that Obama is the half-black Muslim product of an international Jewish Communist conspiracy, who endorses the racist anti-Semitic platform of the United Church of Christ, and further that Michelle Obama hates America.<BR/><BR/>This is a good chance to quote from my favorite book on politics, <I>All the King's Men</I>. "The Boss" is the Huey Long character, Willie Stark: <I>The Boss knew all about the so-called fallacy of the Argumentum ad hominem. "It may be a fallacy," he said, "but it is shore-God useful. If you use the right kind of argumentum you can always scare the hominem into a laundry bill he didn't expect."</I><BR/><BR/>The book is written from the perspective of Jack, Willie's staffer. Jack had a mentor growing up called The Judge. The Judge endorsed a candidate whose opponent was favored by The Boss. As an excuse, he claimed some dirt on the Boss's candidate had been called to his attention. In retaliation, The Boss tells Jack to dig up dirt on The Judge:<BR/><BR/><I> I said, "But suppose there isn't anything to find?"<BR/><BR/> And the Boss said, "There is always something."<BR/><BR/> And he said, "Man is conceived in sin and born in corruption and he passeth from the stink of the didie to the stench of the shroud. There is always something."<BR/><BR/> Two miles more, and he said, "And make it stick."<BR/><BR/> Little Jackie made it stick, all right.</I>former law studenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196697206046544350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-52195516872775117782008-02-21T13:07:00.000-06:002008-02-21T13:07:00.000-06:00A person that went through life with no "what the ...<I>A person that went through life with no "what the hell did I just do?" moments is far less worthy of public office thatn a human with one or two wrong turns.</I><BR/><BR/>c'mon that depends on who you are too.

Where once deadly to candidates, these indiscretions just act to humanize them. The MSM dinosaurs haven't figured out yet that most of us don't care. We know that we'll hear that someone didn't buy girl scout cookies, got kicked out of a little league game as coach, etc. A person that went through life with no "what the hell did I just do?" moments is far less worthy of public office thatn a human with one or two wrong turns.Elliott Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08926851577632076982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-77911305873141112142008-02-21T12:10:00.000-06:002008-02-21T12:10:00.000-06:00Mormens came to my door and I honestly exchanged a...Mormens came to my door and I honestly exchanged a few kind words with them being people and took their card.It wasn't bad. Really. I now collect holy cards that mean something, because it is amazing: the faith that a little card can represent, not about religion, but about people.<BR/>And I am not being sarcastic here.<BR/> My St. Christopher laminated card I put in the glove compartment of my car and sharpeed over <BR/><BR/>the phrase:<BR/><BR/><I><BR/>I am a Catholic - In case of an accident please call a priest<BR/></I><BR/><BR/>it now reads<BR/><BR/> I was a Catholic -In case of an accident pray anyway!<BR/><BR/>Also:<BR/><BR/>I am voting for Hillary when she divorces Bill (which would say much more about honesty and character) and when she takes Mike Gravel as her VP.

It made me feel special, almost as if they had printed my name in the newspaper. I am not famous like Ann Althouse or Glenn Reynolds and haven't had my name in the paper since the birth of my last son. Or maybe when I was admitted to the hospital that other time. So you know that 12 was special for me.

Geeewiz do you think there is an agenda here??<BR/><BR/>I believe that I predicted just this on this blog. <BR/><BR/>1. The media squeezes out any other viable Republican candidates, (the more conservative candidates that the party actually wanted.) By publishing only negative articles about Romney, Thompson, Guiliani, Hunter etc. Or by not giving them any air/face time, while stressing the least attractive candidates Huckabuck and McCain.<BR/><BR/>2. They endorse McCain all the while knowing that they have this hatchet job on the back burner.<BR/><BR/>3. The NYT waits until all the other choices have been completely taken away from the Republican Party, by their own machinations. No point in breaking this story until after the primaries are mostly done otherwise we might have had the opportunity to vote in different candidate.<BR/><BR/>4. Now that it <B>their chosen candidate</B> for the Republicans is all but locked in.....Pounce, Smear, Innuendo, Lie, Distort and do anything they can to throw a National Election.<BR/><BR/>Given that this has been their pattern for the last 8 years in regards to the Bush administration. Really.... are we all shocked, Shocked, SHOCKED???<BR/><BR/>BTW: Is anyone in the media at all interested in Bush's Africa visit and how well he is being received? If it were a Democrat doing the same tour (as Clinton did) or just imagine Obama making this historic visit... don't you think the media coverage would be orgasmic? Instead most people don't even know about it.<BR/><BR/>But they will make sure we know about a 10 year old non story that can throw the election their way.<BR/><BR/>Sorry Michelle O....my cynicism remains firmly ensconced in my world view.Dust Bunny Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341429444562280127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-68778580736423912392008-02-21T11:37:00.000-06:002008-02-21T11:37:00.000-06:00Rumor has it St. Obama's hung like a black dude.Rumor has it St. Obama's hung like a black dude.Bissagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04439910009646381418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-77018922789019842008-02-21T11:36:00.000-06:002008-02-21T11:36:00.000-06:00Never works out well when Gods are revealed to be ...Never works out well when Gods are revealed to be mortal men:<BR/><BR/><I>“‘She’ll do,’ said Dan, looking her over. ‘What’s to be afraid of, lass? Come and kiss me.’ He puts his arm round her. She shuts her eyes, gives a bit of a squeak, and down goes her face in the side of Dan’s flaming red beard.<BR/><BR/>“‘The slut’s bitten me!’ says he, clapping his hand to his neck, and, sure enough, his hand was red with blood. Billy Fish and two of his matchlock-men catches hold of Dan by the shoulders and drags him into the Bashkai lot, while the priests howls in their lingo, — ‘Neither god nor devil but a man!’ I was all taken aback, for a priest cut at me in front, and the Army behind began firing into the Bashkai men.<BR/><BR/>“‘God A-mighty!’ says Dan. ‘What is the meaning o’ this?’<BR/><BR/>“‘Come back! Come away!’ says Billy Fish. ‘Ruin and Mutiny is the matter. We’ll break for Bashkai if we can.’<BR/><BR/>“I tried to give some sort of orders to my men — the men o’ the regular Army — but it was no use, so I fired into the brown of ’em with an English Martini and drilled three beggars in a line. The valley was full of shouting, howling creatures, and every soul was shrieking, ‘Not a god nor a devil but only a man!’ The Bashkai troops stuck to Billy Fish all they were worth, but their matchlocks wasn’t half as good as the Kabul breech-loaders, and four of them dropped. Dan was bellowing like a bull, for he was very wrathy; and Billy Fish had a hard job to prevent him running out at the crowd.<BR/><BR/>“‘We can’t stand,’ says Billy Fish. ‘Make a run for it down the valley! The whole place is against us.’ The matchlock-men ran, and we went down the valley in spite of Dravot’s protestations. He was swearing horribly and crying out that he was a King. The priests rolled great stones on us, and the regular Army fired hard, and there wasn’t more than six men, not counting Dan, Billy Fish, and Me, that came down to the bottom of the valley alive.</I>billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116980864333670109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-40491251197650485252008-02-21T11:35:00.000-06:002008-02-21T11:35:00.000-06:00titus cookie said....."I am more interested in pol...titus cookie said.....<BR/>"I am more interested in policy papers.
