This one might just leave a mark. Oh, and by the way, it was created by a “concerned citizen”. It didn’t come from the Obama campaign. With friends like these, he’s in VERY good shape. I’m just sayin’…

While it’s a pretty easy target these days to hit, this right harr is a piece of awesomeness. How people can listen to McCain and then listen to Obama and come away thinking McCain and Palin are the best two people to run this country when it is in such dire need of strong leadership, I absolutely will never understand. […]

Seriously, this guy is running on his NEW! and IMPROVED! banner of CHANGE!??? This old man is so out of touch and entrenched in Warshington politics that I wouldn’t trust him to have anything at all to do with “fixing” our economy. The Dems nail it in their new ad I’m just sayin’…

I was raised by a single mother and an ardent feminist. She dragged my brother and I to Equal Rights Amendment rallies and to hear prominent feminist women speak. Our house was papered with posters which said things like “Women are Not Chicks” and “Men of Quality are Not Threatened by Women for Equality”. I even sported a button that […]

Whoa. Somebody borrowed “a pair” from Hillary. Crazy part is, she’s from Fox News! Of course, Tucker Bounds is a total douchebag. But the fact that he’s been reduced to admitting that they are telling lies about Obama raising everyone’s taxes is because they don’t believe him. Get that? They say he’s going to raise the estate tax, the payroll […]

Now we’re talkin’. More like this please. The McCain campaign’s response? We’re running a campaign to win. And we’re not too concerned about what the media filter tries to say about it. In other words, they’ll just keep lying ’cause that’s how they think they’re going to win. And fuck you and the media if you don’t like it. That’s […]

We lost one of the good ones this past Friday when David Foster Wallace, author of the legendary Infinite Jest, was found dead from suicide. DFW’s insight into society and American life, in particular, made him a standout in the literary world. His death is a tragic loss. In 2000, DFW spent two weeks on the campaign trail with John […]

The US economy is almost literally melting down before our eyes. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are taken over by the US government. Lehman Brothers going bankrupt. Merrill Lynch has had to sell itself to Bank of America to save itself. A.I.G. is is asking the Federal Reserve for $40 billion to keep afloat. The list goes on. And yet […]

Now THAT’S Calling a Fucking Liar a Fucking Liar. No holds barred from the St. Petersburg Times out of Florida today. None at all… Campaign of lies disgraces McCain McCain’s straight talk has become a toxic mix of lies and double-speak. It is leaving a permanent stain on his reputation for integrity, and it is a short-term strategy that eventually […]

ABC gets it mostly right: The most controversial item in the McCain ad is the assertion that Obama supports children “learning about sex before learning to read,” and the accusation that Obama’s “one accomplishment” on education was “legislation to teach ‘comprehensive sex education’ to kindergarteners.” But both claims are false. The idea seems to be to paint Obama as an […]

As I have been phonebanking and canvassing for Senator Obama’s Campaign for Change for the past two months, one of the focuses has been on “undecided” voters – voters identified by the campaign as on the fence. I have talked to a great deal of people who say they haven’t decided yet. In many of these conversations, by the end […]
