McCain Must Be Doing Something Right - Can't Please Anyone!
2008-06-04 07:31:00 TUESDAY, JUNE 3 This evening John McCain may have proven that he has POTUS potential. His speech was good. We all know he is not orater. So what? Evidently even conservative bloggers (they hate him anyway) are pulling his speech apart. Evidently he may be entering that rarefied atmospher of a serious GOP POTUS asparant. He can't please anyone. That's a very good sign. I actually liked some of the themes. I like the idea of energy independence and looking for bright new ways to do things. Why not? The big problem, there is a certain segment of the American ...
I Finally Get to Vote for John McCain
2008-06-04 04:37:00 VOTINGEvery time I have the honor and the privilege to vote, I think about the Northern Exposure episode where Chris (the DJ) reveals that he cannot vote because he is a felon. On air he begins to wax poetic about the right to vote and our freedom, our Founding Fathers. When the process begins, he shows up, long hair cut, beard shaved, clad in a suit and tie. Because he has lost the right to vote, all he could ask is to be there to watch others exercise their vote. I think about my great aunt, Mabel Perkins. ...

John McCain, Change, and the Barack Obama Illusion
2008-06-03 20:59:00 METAMORPHOSIS Any good Trekkie automatically associates the word Metamorphosis with the Trek Classic episode featuring Zefram Cochrane. Without giving you a detailed history of space flight, warp drive, first contact with the Vulcans thereby proving that Star Trek is salient to all aspects of life, simply – nah, nothing’s simple with Zefram Cochrane. Metamorphosis features a really bitchy Federation diplomat who was dying; the ship wrecked Cochrane, an interesting creature in love with Cochrane, and the wit and wisdom of James T. Kirk. Long story short, the alien merged with the dying Federation bitchy type. They were able to ... More About: Barack Obama , Change , John , Barack , Obama
Can John McCain Appeal to the Disenfranchised “Clinton Women”
2008-06-03 15:51:00 HERE HE COMES TO SAVE THE DAY!“…Genuine guys are sometimes known as retrosexuals, to distinguish them from metrosexuals, who are men with the good taste of gay men, only they're straight. Metrosexuals are scrupulous about their grooming and are great consumers of men's cosmetic products. They use hair gel. Retrosexuals are scared of hair gel. Some people think that retrosexuals automatically have Neanderthal views about women, but this is not the case. A retrosexual is simply someone who doesn't know the difference between teal and aqua, and frankly couldn't give a damn….”They call him Retrosexual. The ... More About: John , John McCain , Appeal

How Badly Wrong Can I Get This One? (I hope)
2008-06-03 06:36:00 MY VP PROGNOSTICATIONI want to state up front that I want Sarah Palin to be on the “Ticket” as VP. I have my doubts if she will make it, simply because of the series of polls Survey USA has been putting out about the VP stakes. If you take the time to study them, poll after poll, Mike Huckabee does the most to help John McCain win voters and influence electors. The same holds true for John Edwards on Obama’s ticket. Our worst nightmare would be an Obama/Edwards ticket, if you read the pools correctly. If Hillary does not ... More About: Hope , Wrong
Barack Obama, Religious, Shallow, or Psychopath
2008-06-03 05:02:00 MY VOTE IS FOR THE LATTER“…Most criminals -- whether psychopathic or not -- are shaped by poverty and often childhood abuse as well. In contrast, corporate psychopaths typically grew up in stable, loving families that were middle class or affluent. But because they're pathological liars, they tell romanticized tales of rising from tough, impoverished backgrounds. Dunlap pretended that he grew up as the son of a laid-off dockworker; in truth, his father worked steadily and raised his family in suburban comfort. The corporate psychopaths whom Babiak studied all went to college, and a couple even had PhDs. Their ... More About: Barack Obama , Barack , Obama , Religious
Yet Another NM UFO! (Update A Weather Balloon)
2008-06-02 06:46:00 SUNDAY, JUNE 1At least the world is back into perspective. We’re getting back to the serious stuff, peeping tom aliens, and mysterious New Mexico UFO’s. Well, there’s another mysterious object in the sky. Let’s face it, there was a reason Indiana Jones ended up in New Mexico. It’s just not normal here. And – we like it that way! Even when it really is a weather balloon. That’s it for tonight.

The Growing Uncivil War in the GOP
2008-06-02 06:07:00 NOTHING CIVIL ABOUT ITIf New Mexico is anything like the rest of the country (not that we ever are) there is a very real problem in the Republican Party. The same thing is going on in Arizona, where the hard-line extremists are battling for the heart and soul of the state’s GOP.

An Expose: Medical Horror Stories
2008-06-02 04:45:00 THE SYSTEM IS BROKENHow many times have we heard medical horror stories and how badly the system is broken. It is. I’m not talking about our medical system, but the problems immigrants, detainees, and those deemed less important than “legal” Americans. There is a bottom line here. Detainees at Gitmo who are terrorists receive better treatment than those who are being held on immigration charges. There is something wrong with that picture, seriously wrong. Joe Lieberman has introduced a bill requiring basic medical treatment for detainees, but our HARD RIGHT conservative who are owned by John Tanton keep voting ...

Barack Obama and the Culture of Death
2008-05-31 18:38:00 A BARACK OBAMA ABORTION PRIMER There is another reason we need to band together to defeat Barack Obama . He is one of the most pro-abortion candidates we’ve ever seen. There are some terrifying new developments in assisted suicide in California. Considering Obama’s view on partial birth abortion and his plans to socialize medicine it has terrifying implications for everyone who isn’t absolutely perfect, young, healthy, and beautiful. It is literally a license to kill. Barak Obama "… "A woman's ability to decide how many children to have and when, without interference from the government, is one of the most fundamental ...

The Problems Facing Big Mac’s Attack
2008-05-31 08:18:00 MAYBE NOT WHAT YOU THINKThe first thing we need is a Hollywood face who is younger than my grandfather to help promote John McCain. We need a rock star. Conservatives need to start treating Hispanics with respect. They are our future, hard-line conservatives are (fortunately) a dying breed. The world is changing. Conservatives need to change. The first thing they need to do is understand, to comprehend that in order to win, John McCain needs to move toward the center. We all know they are incapable of rational thinking and behavior. They are too busy being spoiled and selfish. ... More About: Problems , Attack , Facing
GrandMommy Cat Has Been Found!
2008-05-31 07:58:00 FRIDAY, MAY 30The current theory is something has terrified the cats. Barbara found GrandMommy Cat today, behind her condo, with a new litter of kittens. She’ll be up here with them in a few weeks. We’ve managed to locate all but my beautiful long-haired tabby, the red and white male, and one of the tuxedos. I have a feeling two of the younger tabbies are dealing with new litters of kittens – their first. Barbara, the condo manager, agrees with me that something happened last Thursday evening.

A New Mexico Bombshell: Outgoing Domenici Endorses Wilson
2008-05-31 07:25:00 SO DO II like Steve Pearce. Thus said, I am furious with him for deserting his 2nd District House Seat and running against Heather Wilson for the US Senate Seat Pete Domenici is vacating. Right now, the way things look, not only are we going to lose Wilson's Congressional District, but we could lose the 2nd. The Dems are running another of those Blue Dogs that are decimating our House numbers. The way it stands now, if the election were held today, Democrat Tom Udall would easily defeat either candidate.

Why I Never Seem To Be Able To Accomplish Anything
2008-05-30 06:02:00 THURSDAY, MAY 29The following dramatic photos, taken this afternoon, will provide The Pink Flamingo reader with evidence as to why I am never able to accomplish anything! The working conditions with which I must deal are deplorable. My working associates annoying and are only interested in having a good time. They have no respect for my work-space. Nothing is sacred to them. There is a vast inter-species rivalry that sometimes breaks out in open hostility. I am caught in the middle. No one should be forced to deal with conditions like this.

Conservatives Mistreating Bush & the McClellan Betrayal
2008-05-30 05:14:00 IT WILL HAUNT THEMI think one of the saddest things I’ve seen in quite awhile is this book by Scott McClellan. It is tragic. There is no happy ending for this story, none. Scott McClellan, unless he becomes a vast left wing nut, is finished. He has betrayed people who were good and decent to him. He’s burned his Republican bridges, but from what I hear from Michael Medved’s broadcasts, his mother detests GWB and the GOP, has gone third party. His father is a disbarred Texas attorney. I am sick and tired of Republicans Bush -bashing. Once again we ... More About: Conservatives , Betrayal

The Summer Monsoons Have Begun!
2008-05-29 04:57:00 WEDNESDAY, MAY 28 It rained, hard, all afternoon –off and on. The best indicator is a dip in the drive where a large puddle always forms. If the one next to the museum is over halfway across the driveway, we’ve had a good rain. When the smaller puddle on the other side meets – wonderful! We had lightening and thunder. Every time there is a clap of thunder Rumsfeld runs around the condo and yaps. After a couple of circuits he settles down, then there’s another clap, and we’re off again, over and over as long as the storm ... More About: Summer
Why Is Obama Willing to Meet with Ahmadinejad But Not Petraeus?

He saw nothing that made him change his opinion that the US needed to pull out of Iraq. The day after he left President Bush announced the “serge”.
