RON PAUL

Bottom line is this: Billary will take it right to the convention
if for no other reason to hold political power over BO's head.
Billary has get to get their buddies in positions of power in a BO
cabinet and they will take it to convention to force concessions from him.
They will try one last ditch effort at convention to get Florida and
Michigan to count and if that fails, force their operatives into BO's
government. This will go all the way to the convention folks.

Well the only way I am even voting for anyone is if Obama wins, I will vote for McCain over him. Hell I would take Clinton straight up over him.

I've never wanted to see two people rip each other apart so much as hill and obama- glad they're obliging me.

I would have voted for Gore The Prophet,
but he wasn't on the hanging chad.

“And as we’re talking today, the death count in Myanmar from the cyclone that hit there yesterday has been rising from 15,000 to way on up there to much higher numbers now being speculated,” Gore said. “And last year a catastrophic storm from last fall hit Bangladesh. The year before, the strongest cyclone in more than 50 years hit China – and we’re seeing consequences that scientists have long predicted might be associated with continued global warming.”

Thunder Dome in Denver!

The mayor of Denver is hoping the gang bangers that populate his city will not start the riots cause they have the excuse.

The character, judgement, and decision making skills of Barack Obama is relevant to this campaign. After all, he could be our next President, thus voters have to ask themselves why Obama's association with racists and terrorists are NOT relevant to their voting decision? Because that's what the polls say, that many voters don't think these facts are important in their vote, which is disturbing. Are today's voters that easily fooled?

295 on 2200 is actually high. It usually runs at only about 10% (220 or so).

You know, I don't really care if Obama beats Hillary or Hillary beats Obama (though I'd pay good money to see either one), but the tragedy is that those are the choices, and people don't have the sense to stay home. If the total vote was in the dozens, it'd be so much more appropriate.

My last post from the previous thread after most had jumped up...

Why the Republicans will probably lose the 2008 election cycle. No platform, lately Republican's elected officials have lost vision of what the Republican party stands for. They are in love with Democrat lite(TM), bigger government, more taxes, more government intrusion. They have lost lost all connection with Newt Gingrich's "contract with America" and middle America. Most Americans have difficulty understanding any difference in domestic policy between the two parties. Only in foreign policy is their any big issue, the WOT and the occupation of Iraq. The Republicans should launch and publicize a comprehensive platform describing how they will approach the near recession, energy independence, education, social security, entitlements, illegal immigrants, etc. We are getting near zero leadership from any of our major parties on any of these important issues. If the Republicans would simply make a stand on issues, and vigorously defend a conservative platform, it would work wonders for the Republican party....

re: #102 JammieWearingFool
Damned if the do, damned if they don't; BHO or BO, someone, somewhere on the left will be offended either way.

Fox News is trying to low-ball me. Grrrrrr.

Earlier today they requested some of my photos to put on a show tonight. I said, "Sure! But how much will you pay me for one-time broadcast rights?" The answer? "Pay you? Well, bloggers should be just happy to get the exposure." I insisted on some payment -- I'm long out of paitence with just supplying these people (i.e. the MSM) with content as some sort of over-eager volunteer. They caved a little, asked how much -- I named a VERY low and more-than-reasonable fee. I even sent them the requested photos pre-emtively to speed up the process for their production teams.

That was four hours ago. Haven't heard a peep out of them since.

They're probably out scouting around the blogs trying to find some substitute free content from a photographer more willing to debase him- or herself for the publicity.

Maybe they'll come crawling back when they realize: When you want the best, you gotta pay.

And the blogosphere is not some sort of free supermarket of content you can glean at your leisure.

My rule of thumb is: I'll let a fellow blogger re-post my photos for free. But the MSM? Pay up or shut up.

I know what you mean. I gave up good opportunities for advancing my career in music because the love of music and the pure joy of making it was more important than making money from it.

I have to agree. I'm a classically trained vocalist with 15 years of formal training, and a background in opera and classical performance. At one time I made quite a bit of money with my voice, but I disliked having my creativity stunted by other people. I stopped performing when I realized that I just wasn't enjoying it any more.

These days, my singing is limited to bawdy Irish pub tunes and laments from the auld sod.

Yeah, but those extra expenses still cost me money. My income is pretty modest and my business is small so can't really afford many expenses even if they are write offs. I think the simplest solution is to just limit my income.

Let's face it, guys, Barack Obama will almost certainly get the Democratic nomination. The choice in November is between an aging, possibly senile war hero who is America's Paul von Hindenburg, versus a young, charismatic populist you-know-who. How depressing....

re: #171 savage_nation

Michelle Obama is an angry POS that needs to have a roll of duct tape wrapped around her stinking piehole.

A whole roll? That's a lot.

re: #152 NoSubmission

You have so many classics. Actually I heard of you before I ever heard of LGF. A friend sent me a link to your Hall of Shame and I was aghast!

There's one photo in particular that you took at a topless anti-war thing that is just riveting. Its that woman in purple and you have her corned in the hall stair way. It's the look in her eyes I will never forget.

Yeah. There's a secret behind that photo which I shall never reveal!

re: #160 zombie

Yup. The author is a sorta fan of mine. Apparently I'm mentioned in the book.

By an chance did you catch the Buzz Bissinger meltdown on the live Costas HBO show last week?

He went apeshit on Will Leitch, a sports blogger.

It was a painful yet enlightening look at how cranky old media/authors view the new media.

If not, Google the names, you'll see what I mean.

Sure! I'll save some BBQ for ya :D

It still goes back to the electoral college math. Can Hussein turn any red states blue and how will he do it? He would have a very tough time keeping PA blue, and if it turns red, the race is over right there. He's not going to capture OH, and I don't see how he could win FL either.

re: #163 rightymouse

She obviously has no appreciation or respect for her own achievements or Obama's for that matter. Most people, regardless of background, bear a sense of inner pride in their accomplishments. It's not an ego thing, just a form of self-fulfillment. She makes me wonder whether there's anything beneath her surface because all I see is the bitterness, anger and resentment that she shows on the outside. Very sad.

she can be bitter and angry at others and never have to look at herself.
and i think she is trying to be a nasty-nay- saying- dooms -day -the -end- is -near- pontificator and then present osama as the guy to save us.
i really resent the idiot. and her presumption that her plan is a good one.

re: #172 Killgore Trout
If lots of small business owners start to think that way (and they will)the already tentative economy sinks further. The Dems do not know how to grow the economy or nurse it through difficult times.

We are today seeing public money spent to accommodate the selection processes of political parties, which are in effect private clubs, and not a constitutional part of out government.

I'd rather that they keep to their smoke filled back rooms, that would be more honest

And perhaps that would encourage more voters to register independent.

which makes all the more important that we get JMac a tight VP

Absolutely.... The moderate population need to vote in droves to stop the Obamajugend. It's not a matter of liking McCain (I personally like him but I know many people don't) - it's a matter of stopping the much greater evil, and the choice is as stark as it can be.

re: #199 Robert O.

Stark is right. "Punished with a baby", etc.

O/T Prediction:

"A posting attributed to Bent on the church's web site on Monday said:

"Jesus had not committed any crimes, so the authorities had to invent some crimes to crucify him over. It is the same for me also. I have committed no crimes, but many crimes are being imagined and concocted in the minds of men to try and kill me again."

Bent had predicted the end of the world last Oct. 31."

I'm prepared to go out on a limb here and suggest that 100% of religious maniacs/zealots/fanatics are criminally-motivated, mentally ill or, in the case of the followers, of extremely low self-esteem and/or common sense.

re: #181 NoSubmission

I say make the Daily Show pay. That show is so highly rated and their overhead is nearly zilch.

Well, it all depends on the author getting half a word in edgewise on John Stewart, which I hear is nigh-on impossible. The interviews, from what I've heard, are basically just another excuse for his sarcastic jibes, and the interviewee has little chance to acutally say what they want to say. So it's quite likely John Stweart will monopolize the conversation or at least guide it in other directions that won't allow mention of individual bloggers.

Like I said, I never actually seen the show.

I can't really get them to pay, since there's no plan to show any of my images.

Americans aren't stupid, though. We tend to gravitate more towards optimism and sanity. Her negative and irrational commentary is going to hurt Obama in the long run and that's just fine with me. Let her keep yapping away.

We have a County Exec in King Co. WA. Home to Seattle and 2000 more ballots than voters in an election that gave the govenorship to the (D) by 129 votes.

Ron (tax to the max) Sims tried pushing on executive authority a 60/40/10 rule for rural King Co. 60/40/10 rule is 60% percent of any property must remain undisturbed native vegetation, 40% improved land with no more than 10% (of the total) out of the 40% impermeable surface, buildings pavement etc...

re: #215 zombie
I've seen it and have been there for tapings. The segments are very short and Jon Stewart like you said does do most of the talking. It can be funny but it is totally biased to the point of painful. The producer told me that had John McCain on about 8 times and I saw John Bolton on once. Bolton made mincemeat of Stewart.

re: #19 SecretInternetDoucheBag

Well the only way I am even voting for anyone is if Obama wins, I will vote for McCain over him. Hell I would take Clinton straight up over him.

I feel the exact same way. Very few differences between Clinton & McCain IMO. Obama is a gun-grabbing, soft-on-crime socialist.

Of course, if Obama loses it isn't because of his leftist, elitist views. It is because we're all racists.

re: #141 Globular Cluster

No it did not. I'm surprised how badly Hillary lost there.

"G-C" -

Look at the DEMOGRAPHICS. Lemmesee now - "D" Primary, 40% of registered "D's" are African-American, voting at about +/- 90% for Senator Obama. That translates into a baseline of about 36% of the vote.
AND, I cannot blame NC "A-A" voters for voting for Sen. Obama, as I was a bit "tribal" in my 2000 vote for Gore-Lieberman. It ALWAYS feels good the first time one of "YOURS" is promoted for high office. To win, Sen. Obama had to win another +/- 15 percentage points. That equates to about 6% winning 10% of the non "A-A" vote, 12% equaling 20% of that vote, and 18% equaling 30% of that vote, and insuring a win. NOT as hard as it might look. That is all.

-S-

The Democrats are fucked. They are showing their asses - creating a huge divide amongst themselves - documenting it on audio, video and websites...all while writing the Republican Party playbook to allow The Maverick to stray from the party line to pick up the moderates.

Rush is a genius - he can claim credit for it since he is without a doubt the most influential pundit in the land - but he just realized what was happening before anyone else.

I am enjoying the Hill and Obi show but in the end all the candidates suck so I'm voting for the best first lady.
Choices

Bill (horn dog) Clinton
Michelle (The crazy witch) Obama
Cindy (The sweet) McCain
