Drilling: The Election Issue Of All Election Issues

I caught this one myself through an email from a friend of mine in New Joisey (I’m originally from there, I’m allowed to write it that way. Exit 98), but, I think John Hawkins at Right Wing News puts it perfectly Yesterday, the fine folks over at Americans for Prosperity alerted me to the fact […]

Mac Attack: Audacity Of Hopelessness

While the article does end up attempting to make some dumb comparisons to the look of the McCain campaign to the Obama campaign during the past week, I can’t imagine that cBS/AP would have gone ahead with this piece just a few short months ago, which highlights the media’s diminishing love affair with Barry Republican […]

Proof The Credentialed Media In The Tank For Obama

As proven by the Credentialed Media. IBD – Putting Money Where Mouths Are: Media Donations Favor Dems 100-1 The New York Times’ refusal to publish John McCain’s rebuttal to Barack Obama’s Iraq op-ed may be the most glaring example of liberal media bias this journalist has ever seen.

Despite broad, longstanding dissatisfaction with the war, just 50 percent […]

Candidates Refine Their Stances On Iraq?

Barack Obama on Tuesday dismissed criticism that he is abandoning his principles to move toward the political center, saying he has been consistent in embracing moderate views on several issues, especially his belief that […]

Obama The Puzzled

I suppose the Missiah doesn’t think his words matter, and all you bitter religious gun wavers just need to catch a clue Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said on Saturday his plan to end the Iraq war was unchanged and he was puzzled by the sharp reaction to his statement this week that he might […]

Obama Got A Sweetheart Deal On Home? No, Can’t Be!

How bad is this when the Washington Post covers the story and are not trying for massive amounts of “hey, there is no problem, much ado about nothing”?

Wesley Clark Continues His Blasts At McCain
