The last two threads depress me.
Gloom, despair, and agony on me, deep dark depression, etc.
Most of it isn't the actual news, it's the reaction to the news.
On the upside, it's going to snow here in beautiful downtown Colorado.

Which might be one of the reasons I moved to this thread.
I don't want to get labeled as a troll, and do not have much in the way of positive reinforcement to add to some negative comments.

"Ex"? [Jonah Goldberg]
AP headline: "McCain TV ad raises Obama's links to ex-radical."
Again, reasonable people can disagree on how to define "radical." But if you're going to say that Ayers is merely an ex-radical, even though he apparently hasn't changed his basic views or apologized for his violent past, I'm a loss how you can ever use "radical right" about people who were never violent at all — and who far less radical than Ayers is today. I mean pretty much every liberal in America refers to Gingrich-style Republicans as "radicals." If they're radicals, what the hell is Ayers?

I think it was RealWest who was making silly typos a day or two ago.
I posted a reply to one and included "Go back to sleep".
He took immediate offense, and then calmed down quickly, and I think he went to bed at that point.
Four or five posts later, I did about the same thing he was doing -- PIMF was no help at all.
So, I knew.

McCain could be helping us out, at least a little. I suppose, optimistically, he's got something really amazingly devastating he's going to pull out the week before the election. If he does, and it works, I'll be glad.

And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor

Am I the only one who thinks pinning hopes on the Bradley effect is a load of shit? I've been following free rep and drudge and every point increase in Obama's polling leads to the Bradley effect being increased a point in the comments.
When it was Obama by 3 - Bradley effect 4. Obama by 4, 5. Obama by 5 -- Bradley Effect is six.
Sorry. But 6% would be 7.2 million people. And as for the PUMAs - I've been following Hillaryis44.org religiously but that is bullshit. I live in Arizona - Air-ee-zone-ah. Conservative bastion that is filled with anti-African American sentiment as well as a slight disgust for immigrants. And Clintonians are supporting Obama.
I'm for throwing polls that are close out. But Gallup's only been wrong twice - and those races were close. And aggregate polling on RCP shows that Bush was ahead in 93 out of the last 100 polls conducted. We need to wake up and stop putting false hope in stupid shit like white guilt.
These posts slamming polls are reading like the kostard movement in the final weeks of the 2004 campaign. Polls can be wrong. But If 100 polls come out showing the same trend, let's man-up and stop giving people the false impression that we'll be fine. Putting campaign signs in your lawn, posting on this blog about confident and that other stuff will *not* change the reality of this sitch. What will is phonebanking. Canvassing. And delivering calm, composed reasoning to persuadables and so-called undecideds that taxing small business will destroy this economy, that we can't afford Medicare and Medicaid as it bloody fucking stands let alone a bloated, federal run health care program - that though this is a recession, we will recover because we always recover.
Or we can do the same shit the Kostards did. We can say November 5th will show us the truth. That we'll be alright on November 5th. And then have our spirits utterly fucking crushed by the reality we ignored.
Work like your 10 points down, 20 points down and if you don't pull your weight, we will lose. If you work like the Bradley effect will save our ass, YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING TO AN MSM MYTH THAT HAS LITTLE BASIS IN REALITY. OBAMA WON IN STATES WITH WHITES - HE IS POLLING WELL IN WEST VIRGINIA for fuck's sakes. THE BRADLEY EFFECT IS BULLSHIT.
I repeat. BULLSHIT.

One of my best friends is a guy from Tajikistan (Dushanbe, to be precise).
When he emigrated to this country, they stripped him of his citizenship.
He's had the opportunity to go back and visit twice, and turned down both opportunities.
(He's an official U.S. Citizen). Seriously conservative guy. He can tell some great anecdotes about life in Russia -- he was in the Russian Army while I was in the Navy (Vietnam). They really got lied to over there ... worse than civilians did here, if you can imagine that.

U.N. long known as a sub-prime Org. has tonight failed to raise enough capital to pay the outstanding parking tickets to the City of New York, the resulting default has caused the State of New York to call on a line of credit at the Bank of New York, rumors of this were leaked by the New York Times and a run on the bank resulted in the bank not being able to fund the State thus the City failed, and now the U.N is at last a total failure.

I don't think here will be much of a Bradley effect. There are so many good reasons people can cite for not voting for Obama. Nobody has to feel guilty for voting against him. So even if people have a prejudice, the Bradley effect would not show up in a poll.
Problem is...so many people may vote FOR him because he is black. They think it is apologizing and fixing racism and the past. Which, is crap as I think it will make race relations worse...

Let's hear what the strongest arguments McCain can use from some of the Lizzards here. Make the case for him, and against Obama. What would you like to hear on Tuesday?
Someone on Fox spoke to this earlier tonight, and I think it's exactly the right argument that will score major points. McCain should make the same case:
The worst thing we can do to fix this mess is over-react and veer too far the other way towards too much new regulation, which could, and very likely would, clog the pipes. We need to trust the market, while protecting it from artificial, government authored mandates. The roots of our economic woes started with loosening standards, and a spasm the other way could be very hurtful to a recovery. If the next administration layers on a bunch of new regulations and taxes, especially on small businesses, any recovery will at best be weighted down, and at worst seized up completely. All signs point to an Obama administration following just this prescription.
Do we need some new oversight? Yes. But it's must be the RIGHT KIND of oversight. Between his tax increases on small business', his zeal to regulate, his dreams of an expanded government, and the special interests in his party, an Obama presidency is simply too risky for our country, at a critical time like this, to take a chance on.

The left and MSM would not care if he were a pedophile as long as they could beat up Palin with something.
(Where's Snedgar?)
Now you're tempting me to ask Snedgar if he ever dated Palin's sister.
If I do that, I'd appreciate some *snicker* from a few people, and I'd not tell him anything.

re: #203 MandyManners
Here's the actual conclusion of the report on Palin:
I find that, although Walt Monegan’s refusal to fire Trooper Michael Wooten was not the sole reason he was fired by Gov. Sarah Palin, it was likely a contributing factor to his termination as a commissioner of public safety. In spite of that, Governor Palin’s firing of Commissioner Monegan was a proper and lawful exercise of her constitutional and statutory authority to hire and fire executive branch department heads.

Very good web ad on Obama's ties to ACORN on [Link: www.johnmccain.com....]
Kind of takes the bite out of it when McCain turns around and insists that Obama is a "decent" man, I admit, even if McCain doesn't entirely believe that. But we can't let it get us down. Roll with the punches, even if they come from your side, and come back swinging.
McCain should have said this "Now listen to this, I do not want anyone making any wild statements about Obama or making anything that could be a threat for two reasons. One because it is wrong. We can fight and win better than that and I will not tolerate any threats or abuse. Second, now listen to me and calm down, second is that I have heard a report that some extreme partisans who want to make us look bad are going to try to infiltrate rallies and cause trouble by saying something provocative or otherwise try to make us look bad. So simmer down, don't do anything rash and use that anger. Does it make you angry? It should, it makes me angry. So don't give our friends in the press booth anything ugly to show the American people. Now about your question about Senator Obama's friends....

The Palins make no apologies for wanting to protect their family and wanting to bring attention to the injustice of a violent trooper keeping his badge and abusing the workers’ compensation system.
The Palins are right to be concerned about the fairness of the Legislative Council investigation. The Governor has consistently demonstrated, in statements and through documents she has made available, that she reassigned Mr. Monegan because of legitimate policy differences and disputes over the budget.
It is tragic that a false story hatched by a blogger after drinks with Trooper Wooten led the legislature to allocate over $100,000 of public money to be spent in what has become a politically driven investigation.

Mandy,
I've been a huge follower of James Lee Burke since before he made it big ...he was writer in residence at the local college back in the eighties and is sort of a legend 'round here, especially since he writes of this area and specifies locations that many of us locals can identify ...especially when he goes down memory lane and writes of what "used to be there".
We know those places.
However. He does book signings at a little hole-in-the-wall bookstore called Books Along the Teche in New Iberia, right down the road from the mansion he just built along the bayou.
He strolls along main street looking just like he does on the book flaps. He eats in the local lost-in-time cafes along Main Street. It's not uncommon to see him just hanging out having coffee. You'd think he was one of the most affable guys in the world.
I've attended several of his book signings. He doesn't have a word for anyone. I was really surprised at his manner. No politeness, no conversational or polite exchanges ....just him and a couple of ex-football player looking thugs standing guard as he quietly signs books. We were all ushered out after our book was signed. Then after I read Tin Roof Blowdown and realized just how *progressive* he was, I became a non-fan.
Too bad.

re: #196 joecitizen
it's always darkest before the dawn..etc. etc.
After a while the king led his men away somewhat eastward, to come between the fires of the siege and the outer fields. Still they were unchallenged, and still Theoden gave no signal. At last he halted once again. The City was now nearer. A smell of burning was in the air and a very shadow of death. The horses were uneasy. But the king sat upon Snowmane, motionless, gazing upon the agony of Minas Tirith, as if stricken suddenly by anguish, or by dread. He seemed to shrink down, cowed by age. Merry himself felt as if a great weight of horror and doubt had settled on him. His heart beat slowly. Time seemed poised in uncertainty. They were too late! Too late was worse than never! Perhaps Theoden would quail, bow his old head, turn, slink away to hide in the hills.
Then suddenly Merry felt it at last, beyond doubt: a change. Wind was in his face! Light was glimmering. Far, far away, in the South the clouds could be seen dimly as remote grey shapes, rolling up, drifting; morning lay beyond them.
But at that same moment there was a flash, as if lightning had sprung from the earth beneath the City. For a searing second it stood dazzling far off in black and white, its topmost tower like a glittering needle; and then as the darkness closed again there came rolling over the fields a great boom.
At that sound the bent shape of the king suddenly sprang erect. Tall and proud he seemed again; and rising in his stirrups he cried in a loud voice, more clear than any there had ever heard a mortal man achieve before:
Arise, arise, Riders of Theoden!
Fell deeds awake; fire and slaughter!
spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered,
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
With that he seized a great horn from Guthlaf his banner-bearer, and he blew such a blast upon it that it burst asunder. and straightaway all the horns in the host were lifted up in music, and the blowing of the horns of Rohan in that hour was like a storm upon the plain and a thunder in the mountains.
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
Suddenly the king cried to Snowman and the horse sprang away. Behind him his banner blew in the wind, white horse upon a field of green, but he outpaced it. After him thundered the knights of his house, but he was ever before them. Eomer rode there, the white horsetail on his helm floating in his speed, and the front of the first eored roared like a breaker foaming to the shore, but Theoden could not be overtaken. Fey he seemed, or the battle-fury of his fathers ran like new fire in his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a god of old, even as Orome the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. His golden shield was uncovered, and lo! it shone like an image of the Sun, and the grass flamed into green about the white feet of his steed. For morning came, morning and a wind from the sea; and darkness was removed, and the hosts of Mordor wailed, and terror took them, and they fled, and died, and the hoofs of wrath rode over them ...

re: #184 Captkirk35
Let's hear what the strongest arguments McCain can use from some of the Lizzards here. Make the case for him, and against Obama. What would you like to hear on Tuesday?
Someone on Fox spoke to this earlier tonight, and I think it's exactly the right argument that will score major points. McCain should make the same case:
The worst thing we can do to fix this mess is over-react and veer too far the other way towards too much new regulation, which could, and very likely would, clog the pipes. We need to trust the market, while protecting it from artificial, government authored mandates. The roots of our economic woes started with loosening standards, and a spasm the other way could be very hurtful to a recovery. If the next administration layers on a bunch of new regulations and taxes, especially on small businesses, any recovery will at best be weighted down, and at worst seized up completely. All signs point to an Obama administration following just this prescription.
Do we need some new oversight? Yes. But it's must be the RIGHT KIND of oversight. Between his tax increases on small business', his zeal to regulate, his dreams of an expanded government, and the special interests in his party, an Obama presidency is simply too risky for our country, at a critical time like this, to take a chance on.
The case against Obama? Where to begin . . . my head spins:
143 Days in the US Senate
Big gaps in his past - especially college years at Columbia
How could one be named to the Harvard Law Review and never publish a single scholarly work?
His college thesis
His medical records were never released - why?
I found it curious that no one from his past except his wife & some siblings could or would vouch for his character at the Dem convention.
$1 million/day in requested earmarks since being elected to US Senate
opposition to BAIPA (Born Alive Infant Protection Act)
Opposition to guns rights
Stifling of free speech
No credible specific plans to help the economy
Plans to double capital gains rate, even forfeiting an increase in revenue to the government, in the interest of "fairness"
Further explanations of past relationships - Ayers, Resko, etc
Why did he launch his political career in the living room of Ayers?
Why did he write the blurb for the cover of Ayer's book?
Why was he running for public office as a member of the New Party in Chicago?
Was his trip to Kenya to support "cousin" Odinga's candidacy funded by the taxpayers?
That's what I can think of right off the top of my head, not stopping my typing.
Maybe we can get a list of these points together and send it to Sarah Palin, since McCain is tone-deaf to us . . .

Why?
The assault or not as taboo?
Well, more gay black men have come out of the closet over the years and there is more tolerance for them as a result.
As far as the assault, it was a macho thing. When I was young (at the time of the 80's gang explosion) I actually got into a fight because I didn't like the way someone looked at me. It was hyper-macho stupidity. I had someone get in my face because I was smiling for no apparent reason. "What the f*ck are you smilin' 'bout boy?"
You got "cred" by using women or being violent. That was the scumbag definition of "being a man".
I got lucky. My folks pulled me out of that neighborhood. Otherwise I would be dead or in jail.

I wish we could sink the ship (save the crew) before the small arms are offloaded.
Its in the middle of the ocean surrounded by US Navy ships. The Navy is allowing replenishment boats to offload onto the freighter.
Day after tomorrow, they should all back off to 5 mile radius and wait them out.
My prayers to the crew.

WTF? Is Ohio the new Chicagoland?
1 VOTER, 72 REGISTRATIONS
'ACORN PAID ME IN CASH & CIGS'
CLEVELAND - A man at the center of a voter-registration scandal told The Post yesterday he was given cash and cigarettes by aggressive ACORN activists in exchange for registering an astonishing 72 times, in apparent violation of Ohio laws.
"The ACORN people are everywhere, looking to sign people up. I tell them I am already registered. The girl said, 'You are?' I say, 'Yup,' and then they say, 'Can you just sign up again?' " he said.

Smart parents.
I was dropped into a school that was overwhelmingly middle class and white. The "gang thing" hadn't caught up to the area and it was a totally different environment. Still took me over a year to be comfortable sitting with my back to people.

Yes.
But your account does not 'appreciate' until you pay the money back (including interest). All funds that go to the account count as loan payments until the loan is paid off.

Only for medical emergencies or to put toward the purchase of a first home.
Don't borrow from your 401(k). For any other reasons, the tax consequences are large. Also, you've just pulled that money from the growth segment of your retirement plan.
Google "compound interest" and you'll understand why.
