New Yorker, Jesse Jackson, Ralph Nader Use Racism Against Obama
2008-07-14 15:18:00 In this installment in my video series I discuss the New Yorker cartoon of Barack and Michelle Obama and how it compares to Jesse Jackson's "nuts" gaffe of last week (which I contend was not a gaffe and was a deliberate action), and Ralph Nader's most unfortunate statement that Senator Obama was "acting white." I feature New Yorker Editor David Remick's explaination of the creation and use of the cartoon, and provide commentary. I then explain that all three actions were examples of "jumping the shark" -- using race to get attention for their message, but doing nothing to improve the American condition in the process.
Blogger Influence Studies Miss The Point - Print Media Is Dying
2008-07-14 11:28:00 I happened over to Flopping Aces, a political blog, and noticed their reference and post on a study that questioned the infuence of bloggers in politics. The study was done in the "olden" days of blogging, circa 2006, and so is already questionable because there were 2 million blogs then, versus over 100 million today. But the main point missed by Flopping Aces is that with ad dollars moving toward the Internet, and reporters being laid off left and right, blogs remain the one place to go to get news. Yes, biased -- for example, we tend to be pro-Barack Obama -- but that is why people surf blogs. The bottom line is that the way we're getting our news is changing fast and in this sea of alteration is difficult to question the power of blogs. We're at a point where almost every major news channel on television looks like blogs for news, then uses their content or story idea to some degree. That fact is not in the study's discussed.
Chuck Hagel (R) For Barack Obama’s Veep Pick?
2008-07-12 06:35:00 UnLikely, “Mismatched Duo” To Tour Iraq Together Hey, let’s not read TOO much into this trip into Iraq by Barack Obama and former Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE). The “viral blogosphere” and the MSM is pondering and pontificating the possibility “Barry” might be courting the “maverick” (no, not a “maverick” in a John McCain sense of the term) Republican from The Great State of Nebraska for his currently open running mate position. Can we say “old news”? Look, I covered this back in March for those who might just be newer readers of this blog. But — HEY — this is “shocking, breaking NEWS” today, apparently. Am I surprised at the “latest rumor”? YOU be the judge… From The GTLâ„¢ — March 2nd, 2008: “… Senior advisers confirmed that Hagel, a highly decorated Vietnam war veteran and one of McCain’s closest friends in the Senate, was considered an i...

Zogby International: Poll Shows Barack Obama Currently Sways Enough Elector
2008-07-07 15:50:00 Conservatives And Independents Are Flocking To Bob Barr (LP) And Barack Obama — “Obamacan” Ranks Growing Rapidly It’s not looking too bright right now for the ONLY United States Senator who was born in the nation of Panama only later to migrate to the Great State of Arizona, Señor “Panama John” McCain. According to Zoghby, not only is Señor McCain losing miserably in the national polls to Barry Obama by a 44-38 percent margin; Barry is currently swaying 273 members of the Electoral College his way as well. Of course, one only needs 270 Electoral votes to claim the Royal Throne of This Oligarchical Monarchy’s President “Surge” W. Bush King George II. Not so good news for “Panama John” but hey — the actual election isn’t being held today — and that’s great news for the rapidly-aging Senator from Arizona… First, from Zogby International: Zogby Poll: Building Mo-bama!

An Obama Presidency --- A Fourth Term for the Bushes
2008-07-07 09:30:00 On the whole, jimmy carter probably did more harm to the world in his four long years of sado-masochistic diplomacy and foreign policy than the Bushes did in their 12 years of three presidential terms. Jimmy of course had the benefit of Zbigniew Brzezinski's loyal and proficient assistance in preparing the ground for future wars worse than the Bushes' two wars in Iraq. One of Zbig's hideous creations, the Khomeini regime in Iran, now led by Ahmadinejad, is working towards building a nuclear bomb. And they will probably be allowed by the West to obtain such a bomb, although the very thought of these mad mullahs armed with the Bomb is terrifying, and although some European leaders, such as French president Sarkozy, seem to realize the danger that the Bomb in the hands of the mad mullahs represents for them too.Now, this issue and many other foreign policy issues should enter into one's reckonings about the 2008 presidential election campaign. George Bush II has done little concret...

Barack Obama Maintains Five - Point Lead In Gallup Daily Poll
2008-07-01 20:31:00 For some reason, CNN's not reporting the Gallup Daily Poll, which shows Senator Barack Obama ahead of Senator John McCain by a consistent five points. Right now, it's 47 percent versus 42 percent. What bothers me is that the polls imply that there are equal number of registered Democrats and Republicans, when in point of fact, more Democrats have turned out to vote than Republicans. What's going on? More later.

Barack Obama's Giving A Great Speech On Patriotism Now
2008-06-30 16:33:00 Senator Barack Obama's on CNN now this morning, giving a great and stemwinding speech on the meaning of Patriotism from Independence, Missouri, which includes this line: "Mark Twain said that Patriotism was being proud of your country all the time and your government, when it deserves it." My feelings, exactly. I think Republicans and fans of the current war and American aggression at home and abroad forget that. I don't have to support my government's decisions because it's part of America. I can question what my government does and still be a patriot. In fact, that's the real ideal of America. "True Patriotism," Obama said, "can not be forced or legislated."

McCain/RNC Raising More Money than Obama/DNC
2008-06-23 08:04:00 There has been a lot of fuss lately over Obama opting out the publicly financed campaign system and some of it is justified given the current lack of anti-Obama 527s. However the most likely reason for his decision is this...From the LA Times' Top of the TicketMcCain may lag in money, but RNC outraises the DNC by 5 timesLed by chairman Mike Duncan, the Republican National Committee ended May with 13 times more money in the bank than its Democratic counterpart, and raised five times as much money in the same time frame. As The Times' campaign finance guru Dan Morain points out, the sums are significant as presumptive Republican nominee Sen. John McCain squares off against the far more richly-funded Sen. Barack Obama for the last 136 days of the general election campaign.Based on the numbers so far, the Republican Party appears poised to act as the financial equalizer in the fall campaign. The RNC disclosed that it ended May with $53.5 million in the bank, compared to $3.9 million ...

CNN's Paul Begala - Republican Or Democrat?

Meanwhile the Republican Strategist was consistently on the attack against Obama. Paul did not effectively hit back. What's up? Is Paul still smarting from Clinton's loss?

Or, those funds, involuntarily hijacked from the paychecks of American workers to ram Barack Obama and John McCain’s mugs, words and pontifications down our throats for the next few months.

Shocker: Barack Obama Steered Away From Photo-Op With Muslim Women
2008-06-18 19:09:00 Surprise, Surprise — Barack Obama Is Not Above Playing “Politics” In His Quest For The Oval Office Guess what, “offended” Righties this evening? EVERYBODY does it. That’s right, if it could cost votes, advisers are likely to rearrange the “background” and “foreground scenery” during a photo-op if it looks “good”. Apparently Barack’s campaign gurus thought it might not look too “appealing” to some voter-types to have a couple of Muslim women in garb body hugging and smooching on ole’ “Barry” in a photo-op. Or, SOMETHING to that effect. I might be mistaken on some of the details of the latest “Barack bru-haha” but you get the idea. What did I mean by “everybody does it”? Want a name? How about Bobby Jindal — governor of the Great State Of Louisiana and possibly — Señor Panama John McCain’s running mate on the Republican ticket. ...
Al Gore's Speech Endorsing Senator Barack Obama For President
2008-06-16 23:53:00 Streaming Video by Ustream.TV Stating that this election is too important to do otherwise, Al Gore officially endorsed Senator Barack Obama in a rosing speech given at Cobo Hall in Detroit this evening. Jojned by Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm and Senator Obama, Gore was litterally blasted into emotional orbit by the crowd's yelling of "Yes We Can" again and again. Gore said that elections matter, reminding the crowd of Florida just by using its name. The Nobel Prize Winner then talked to the crowd explaining the importance of solving the crisis of Global Warming. He compared our current crisis to that facing "The Greatest Generation" of men and women who served during World War II, saying "That?s what the Greatest Generation did to win World War II, and then came home to start the Marshall Plan, unify Europe, create the United Nations and create the basis for peace and prosperity for decades." The speech was stirring, to be sure. MSNBC explains the significance ...

On his blog, former Vice President and Nobel Prize winner Al Gore has annouced that he will back Senator Barack Obama for President. While some have complained about the timing of the event, saying it was about time, there's no question that it's an enormous development, which will start many thinking that Gore may be Obama's pick for Vice President.

Barack Obama Promises To Launch Nukes Against John McCain In A Gunfight For
2008-06-15 00:31:00 Barack Obama Promises To Bust A Cap In John McCain’s “Cracker Assed Cracker Butt” Should The Latter Choose To Select A Knife As His Choice Of Weapon In General Election Debates Once upon a time, a cute little bouncing baby boy was born in the sovereign nation of Panama. His parents named him “John”. We all know the rest of the story: he later migrated to the United States of America, joined the military, fought in the Vietnam War, heroically captured by the enemy, endured torture for years at their hands. Later, this great man relocated to the Great State of Arizona, and became the ONLY Panamanian-born U.S. Senator in the history of the USA. From there, Señor McCain’s lust for power led him to run for the presidency, despite questions of his eligibility due to the Constitutional MANDATE that ALL presidential candidates are “natural born Citizens” of the United States of America. “Panama John” wasn’t actually BO...

The ad, "Safe," features the candidate talking about his service and his desire to protect the country in the future. "I hate war," McCain says, "and I know how terrible its costs are. I'm running for president to keep the country I love safe." The campaign is clearly ready and willing to engage on foreign policy, feeling McCain's experience and concerns about Barack Obama's relative inexperience will boost their prospects. The campaign, however, may have a tough time selling the war as a necessary cost--the public made up its mind some time ago and has shown no willingness to reverse course.

Obama Leads McCain After Clinton Endorsement
2008-06-10 08:51:00 Barack Obama made gains over John McCain according to the latest presidential polling. Rasmussen and Gallup polling data from June 6 through June 8 showed a sizable bump for Obama after officially clinching the Democratic nomination. Barack Obama became the presumptive Democratic nominee last Tuesday after picking up superdelegates endorsements and pledged delegates from South Dakota and Montana. Senator Clinton met with Democratic leaders on Wednesday and later announced her intentions to withdrawal from the race and endorse Obama. With the Democratic nomination locked up and Senator Clinton endorsing Obama, Obama had a week of publicity following this major victory. According a Rasmussen poll, Obama picked up 4 points and McCain lost 2 points from the previous week. The six point swing gives Obama a 50 percent to 44 percent lead. The previous Rasmussen poll showed a dead tie between Obama and McCain. Gallup polling data showed a slightly larger swing fo...
