I'm sorry...I just can't stop.

McCain Palin phone call

I don't care who you are...this is funny!

Attention Hat Wearers

The Stepford Wives kicked off the first night of the Republican Convention. Cindy McCain, in all of her widsom and compassion, had this to say:

I would ask that each one of us commit to join together to aid those in need as quickly as possible," she said. "As John has been saying for the last several days, this is a time when we take off our Republican hats and put on our American hats." (I guess they're only Americans when not in Republican head gear).

After this heart wrenching moment, a lucky photographer was able to grab shot of the ladies in action:

Never one to be outsmarted or outdone, George W joined in with this side splitter:

These delegates from Kentucky joined in the frolicking:

And last, but certainly not least, these fun-loving kidders from Georgia. Man, they know how to have fun!

Dammit...if only I liked wearing hats!

To My Family....

...members who are not of the Democratic persuasion. Even though we might disagree on politics, I love ya no matter what (but only if you buy me a beer)! !

Opening musical act....Tuesday night

Poor Jordin

My daughter is mean! Not really....Adrienne didn't do it! Jordin climbed in the ferret's cage, and Jade and Jaimee locked the door.

Book Burner Palin

Former Wasilla mayor John Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. "She asked the library how she could go about banning books," he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. "The librarian was aghast." The librarian, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn't be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire her for not giving "full support" to the mayor.

John McCain's Bitch Slap

I am insulted AND offended by John McCain's Vice Presidential choice. His selection of Sarah Palin is reckless, and purely political. Not only is she NOT QUALIFIED to be President if the old man croaks, she is one scary bitch.

I am all FOR a woman to be Vice President, or President. But this choice is not for the betterment or advancement of the female gender. It's political...to try to pull some of Hillary Clinton's voters away from the Democrats. There are many women in the Republican party who are 1000 times more qualified than Sarah Palin: Kay Bailey Hutchison, a Senator from Texas; Elizabeth Dole, a Senator from North Carolina, and former cabinet member under Reagan and Bush Sr; Condoleeza Rice (ick), for freakin example......many choices McCain could have made; qualified choices, and smart choices.

But Sarah Palin? WTF! Not only a poor choice in a candidate, but the McCain campaign has done a poor job of vetting her. This woman is tied to so much scandal, in one of the most scandal ridden states in the union. But let me rewind a bit. Here is a little about Sarah Palin:

She went from being head of the PTA to the mayor of Wasilla (at the time of her election, population 4600; she got 903 votes), to Governor of Alaska (population 626,932; 114,697 votes)...all in a matter of a few years. Swell...I feel so safe now. Alaska, as a state, doesn't even have a population of one million...in fact, the whole state has less people than the city of Ft. Worth, Texas. That would be like the mayor of Lovington winning the race for Governor and being selected for VP....it's insane! Even those in her own state doesn't think she is qualified to be VP.

When she was elected mayor, there was a recall initiative in Wasilla, because she fired the Chief of Police and the Librarian because they didn't support her campaign. She left this small town in debt of over $10 million...you can read more about it later if you want. She is currently under investigation by the REPUBLICAN controlled legislature in Alaska, who is considering impeachment proceedings against her. That is pretty bad when you're own party does that to you. All of this because of troopergate...http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/01/palin-trooper-scandal-cou_n_122903.html...look it up. She directed fundraising for Senator Ted Stevens, who has been indicted (July 2008) for 7 counts of corruption. She hasn't really "focused on Iraq (her words)" and follows it from TV news; last month she said in an interview on CNBC "what is it exactly that a VP does every day".

She is fiercely pro-life (except when it comes to killing the enemy and capital punishment), and is opposed to abortions, even in the case of rape, incest, or a threat to the mother's life. Abortion isn't pretty...it's horrible...but it is still a woman's choice. "In November 2006, then gubernatorial candidate Sarah Palin declared that she would not support an abortion for her own daughter even if she had been raped." Like rape isn't bad enough...let's make the girl have the baby! That won't be traumatic at all!

She is against birth control: obviously! Not only for the unwed, but for married couples, as well.

She thinks creationism should be taught in public schools, and does not believe in evolution.

She is for drilling in the Arctic National Refuge; she is against putting polar bears on the endangered species list; she is for the aerial hunting of wolves and their pups....you know, the age old sport of chasing them from a helicopter until they tire out, and then shooting them; she has a lot of negativities when it comes to environment.

Thinks global warming is a hoax....she probably listens to Rush Limbaugh, who thinks she is a "babe"...ick.

"She admits that she used marijuana when it was legal in Alaska, but says that she did not like it." That's cool...don't have a problem with that. But isn't this the same party that grilled Bill Clinton when he said he "did not inhale" when he smoked pot; and grilled Barack over the fact that he used drugs when he was a teenager? Hypocrites.

She's against gay marriage.....what Republican isn't. That's so tired.

But, according to Cindy McCain, who is just dripping with knowledge, Palin has foreign policy experience because, "her state is the closest one to Russia." Oh my god...please help us.

These are just the tip of the iceberg with her. Plus she was raised in the Assembly of God Church....help us all. Like George Bush, she believes in trying to force "God's will" on the American people. "Speaking before the Pentecostal (Assembly of God) church, Palin painted the current war in Iraq as a messianic affair in which the United States could act out the will of the Lord." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/02/palins-church-may-have-sh_n_123205.html This woman is scary.

Oh-bama!!!!!

Barack Obama in da house! How about that speech in front of 84,000 people! Yes we can!

For Your Consideration...A Hillary Gem

"It makes a lot of sense that next week John McCain and George Bush will be together in the Twin Cities, because these days they're awfully hard to tell apart."

---Hillary Clinton

Ewwww...the armpit hug!
