Since I first checked my email at 6:00am today, this has been the exclusive photo feature story on Yahoo:

Poll: Voters souring on McCain, Obama stays steady (AP)

I mean, seriously. Nothing happened today that was newsworthy?

Good grief, the AP doesn't even try to hide it anymore.

re: #26 buzzsawmonkey

Apparently, Stone and Bush were at Yale together. Stone is finally getting his revenge on Bush for being in the crowd that didn't accept Stone.

Didn't that same poll have Obama up by only 2?

Does anyone else get a creepy feeling when they see those blue & red Obama "hope", "progress", or "change" posters all over the place?

I am aware that this comparison is way too overused, but aren't they a bit 1984?

This isn't necessarily a dig on Obama or his candidacy, but instead a comment on the "propaganda" feeling to the one-word, repetitive, plastered everywhere aspect of this poster. It is almost 100% exactly what we have been warned about through movies, and literature regarding brain-washing, in a futuristic totalitarian environment. In almost every movie I have ever seen about such an Government/World/Country their are one word (or very few word) posters plastered everywhere advocating the "leader". (the fact that they use the single words "Hope" and "Progress" makes it worse, as this is almost exactly what is used in the literature/media scenarios)

This theme can be seen in the last Harry Potter Movie, V For Vendetta, 1984, etc.

Joe The Plumber sings!

I just got a viral newsflash in my e-mails:
Your donations requested this season, its deductable
A hard hat, a plunger and pail
No push poll could take the wind out of my sails
Because my pipes are being flushed out this evening
With hard hat, a plunger and pail

Im puttin on my hard hat
Pushin on my plunger
Fillin up my pail

Im sloggin out my sewer
Puttin in the pipe wrench
Hangin with the snails

Im steppin out, my dear
To breathe an atmosphere that simply reeks with methane
And I trust that if you spread my wealth that I’ll roto-root your drain

For Ill be there
Puttin down my plunger
Chattin with Obama
Givin him some pain

(Apologies to Irving Berlin)

In my neighborhood, people take those red and blue posters with Obama's face and "Hope" and tape them over the windows in the top of their front doors. So at night the light shines through them like it's something holy and it looks really, really creepy.

Oh, it's worse than that because the AP misrepresents its own poll.

re: #1 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

So who is going out to see W this weekend?

Here's the first and last paragraphs from Roger Ebert's review of W in the Chicago Sun-Times. I truly, honestly hate that POS Ebert.

Oliver Stone's "W.," a biography of President Bush, is fascinating. No other word for it. I became absorbed in its story of a poor little rich kid's alcoholic youth and torturous adulthood. This is the tragedy of a victim of the Peter Principle. Wounded by his father's disapproval and preference for his brother Jeb, the movie argues, George W. Bush rose and rose until he was finally powerful enough to stain his family's legacy. Unlike Stone's "JFK" and "Nixon," this film contains no revisionist history. (BULLSHIIT!)

One might feel sorry for George W. at the end of this film, were it not for his legacy of a fraudulent war and a collapsed economy. The film portrays him as incompetent to be president, and shaped by the puppet masters Cheney and Rove to their own ends. If there is a saving grace, it may be that Bush will never fully realize how badly he did. How can he blame himself? He was only following God's will.

Amazing.

I have seen two major polls today that show Mc/BO just a few points apart, yet on the front page of CNN's web site they have this blurb...

"John McCain and Sarah Palin are on a mad dash to blunt Barack Obama's surging momentum and hold the states that have traditionally voted for Republicans"

"Surging momentum?" This is why Joe Public will put Obama into the Whitehouse.

They're reminicent of the kind of thing you saw in Stalinist USSR or Mao's China. Big, larger than life portraits of the Dear Leader. And they don't really come as a surprise. The most troubling aspect of Obama's entire campaign has been his one-flew-over-the-kookoo's-nest Cult of Personality.

It's scary. I think Obama's bought his own hype. That makes him a particularly dangerous potential President.

On the subject of propaganda, this is one of my favorite sites that exploits the conventions of propaganda for non-political reasons: Obey The Kitty

And of course, there is The People's Cube, which turns the Leftist's propaganda tools back on them. It's been called "the Stalinist Version of The Onion," but I'd say it's what The Onion's take would be on Stalinism, both historical and present-day.

Someone just walked out of our local Dem headquarters (it is only about 200 ft from my business) with a HUGE Obama sign (had to be 6 by 10) that said "change". I would love to follow them and see where they put it. Guaranteed by morning it would be removed or vandalized. Last election there was a Kerry Edwards sign that was at least 10 by 10 near a main intersection in my town and someone spray painted "commies" across the whole thing. It stayed up for a month. LOL

Mentally challenged man says his vote wasn't right

Jack Justice has been voting since he turned 18. Typically his family takes him to their neighborhood precinct. This time Primus Industries, his adult day rehab program, took him to vote. His family was shocked, but what shocked them more was that Jack claims that his aide commandeered his vote.

"They told me to vote for Obama, I said no I wanted to vote for McCain," said Jack Justice, a voter.

Jack Justice says the person helping him, selected Obama's name. His sister says the family is often asked to sign a permission slips for trips, but for this they were never notified.

Well, as the resident ancient historian...it's actually pretty accurate. Many of the quotes are straight from ancient sources ("she charges a high rent for 9 months' lodging," "the only thing that ever tamed Alexander was Hephaestion's thighs," etc.).

The amazing thing to me about the childish behavior is that these loser lefty lunatics must think that just seeing a McCain-Palin sign will cause someone to vote for McCain, and by removing the sign so no one will see it will cause someone to vote for Obama.

I live in Arlington, which is for the most part as expensive as DC. It's newer, so a lot of the buildings are nicer, but you'll most likely need a car, and DC is a LOT more fun.

The Coors complex actually has palnts along a two mile stretch of Clear Creek, at the end of Clear Creek Canyon, with ends up smack in downtown Golden. And just beyond the plant, going east, Clear Creek widens and meanders across open flat plains.

What's nice is that Coors, from the time they started building here in the late 1800's, they tried to keep the visable foot print of the plants to acceptable.

Arlington will probably have lower taxes. You may not *need* a car depending on where you live in Arlington, but it would probably make life there a lot easier if you had one. It's less important to have one in DC.

I live in DC itself, and like it very much, in spite of the well-known problems of this city. Also, we just got our Second Amendment rights back... some of them, anyway!
