Obama's Big Day: Only A Few Drunks Saw It Coming!
In tomorrow's presidential election there remain obstacles on Obama's path to victory. But these obstacles have become low limbo bars that he merely has to step over rather than dip under. Let's take a look at the final poll averages in the key swing states: Colorado: 51-40 [O] Florida: 49-47 [O] Georgia 50-46 [M] Indiana 48-46 ...

Longevity does not necessarily bring wisdom
Biden was wrong on the surge. Biden was the one whose wisdom was to recommend that Iraq be partitioned into four zones - an approach that would have guaranteed a Shia region completely dependent on Iran. Biden has been around many years and can tell decent stories but Biden is such an ideologue he is incapable of actually looking at the data. The ...

How does a democrat tick?
Democrats are into politics for the sole purpose of obscuring the definition of morality, and passing subsequent laws that make morality illegal in the United States. Democrats want all lights to be green and let everyone fend for themselves at the intersections. Because of the irresponsible and inconsiderate lifestyle of this misrepresentation ...

The Big Bailout...Ha!
There is no need for a bailout of the bank when we can bail them out through tax payer spending...heres how: America has fought hard to become an independent nation and a leader in innovation, so how can we fix our current economic downtrend efficiently? Some seem to think that throwing money at the corporations who failed us is the answer…we all ...

Worst Candidate ALWAYS Wins U.S. Elections
Looking back on United States Presidential Election History, I have concluded that the WORST Candidate ALWAYS Wins the Election for the U.S. Presidency. I could cite all the examples, such as Wendel Wilkie, Adlai Stevenson, Richard Nixon, Michael Dukakis, Al Gore and George H. Walker Bush (Senior) along with George W. Bush (Junior); but you get ...

The Great Game -- Anglo Amero Brits and Kamchatka!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waziristan Honestly, I do not know why it is, that I both love to read Christopher Hitchens every week, and disagree with his every point almost without exception. Maybe it is his ''the sun never sets on the British Empire'' world girdling perapatetic meanderings around the World Map of Current Events and political ...

Barack Obama's Campaign Difficulties, from A to Z
A is for ''an Academic'', is he too much of one? And does this mean he's unable to have down-home fun? B is for ''too Black or not black enough,'' is he the former or the latter, and If we've transcended race, does it really matter? C is for ''dealing with Hillary Clinton'', now there's a sticky wicket! Can he assuage her supporters without ...

News Flash: Christopher Hitchens Seeks Catholic Confessional
I was surprised to read Christopher Hitchens today, riding high on his moral horse as to the political, cultural and economic predations of Maximum Leader Robert Mugabe in his current Country of Residence, Zimbabwe. What people like Hitchens never seem to understand, is that morality is never just for other people, or leaders, or religious types. ...

Re: Thank you, Hitch
By victory I assume you mean a pyrrhic victory?

Obama should quite? NOT!!!
I don't beleive that there is any reason that Obama should quite or even be asked to quit. He is the best choice for the Democratic party and the only chance we have of beating McCain in November. Just because HRC has an agenda of her own which has no concern for either the Democratic party or the American people which stops her from pulling out ...
