Political Punch

YOU SAID IT MOLLY, did you see the Socialist debate with the plumber on TV last night? I think the Plumber wanted to flush him away. But have no fear, we all will.

hypocrisy... thy name is McCain

William Timmons, the Washington lobbyist who John McCain has named to head his presidential transition team, aided an influence effort on behalf of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein to ease international sanctions against his regime.

The two lobbyists who Timmons worked closely with over a five year period on the lobbying campaign later either pleaded guilty to or were convicted of federal criminal charges that they had acted as unregistered agents of Saddam Hussein's government.

During the same period beginning in 1992, Timmons worked closely with the two lobbyists, Samir Vincent and Tongsun Park, on a previously unreported prospective deal with the Iraqis in which they hoped to be awarded a contract to purchase and resell Iraqi oil.

Timmons, Vincent, and Park stood to share at least $45 million if the business deal went through.

- Timmons' activities occurred in the years following the first Gulf War, when Washington considered Iraq to be a rogue enemy state and a sponsor of terrorism. His dealings on behalf of the deceased Iraqi leader stand in stark contrast to the views his current employer held at the time.

Blue.....

Now there is a statement with sustenance....makes me want to vote Obama......LMAO

Ok

We have the "white" vote.

How about the "black" vote???

UnPoliticallyCorrect2008

here's a much simpler 'equation' for you....

Republicans = LOSERS in 2008

*May I remind my black brothers and sisters* of the words of the
honorable Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. -- words I heard as a child of
that era that helped form the person I am today, with hopes and dreams
of equality for all:

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a
nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by
the content of their character."

I say to you and to citizens of all races in our wonderful country,
please do not take the enormous step backwards to vote for someone
because of their race. We must open our minds and welcome full and
thorough vetting of our candidates, especially of their character.
Otherwise, you dishonor the life of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Obama is not qualified for this position and not too long ago he made that statement that he knew he was not ready.....He has ZERO experience and is dangerous to for this country...

JWENCH----Just look at this equation and then make the failed comparative to that of McCain's dealings where the only thing he was guilty of according to the Democrat whom led the Keating Scandal was poor judgement, AND McCain admitted to the issue at hand----NOT LYING to cover his butt like Obama, or Illegal butt as Obama is.....

Ayers + Rev. Wright + (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) + ACORN + Giving $800,000 to ACORN for what appears to commit fraud + Farrakhan + Rezko + Raines + Khali Al-Mansour + Communist Frank Marshall Davis + Rashi Khalidi + Refusal to show full length vault copy of Birth Certificate + Refusal to prove he is no longer an Indonesian Citizen + Refusal to show college transcripts to prove he actually graduate from college denoting his grades + Refusal to show thesis (which is something America will not appreciate from what I hear) =

Horrible Character/Deceitful/Liar/Untrustworthy/
Criminal...etc....etc

According to Obama's tax returns:
YEAR AGI----- Charity/gifts % of agi
2006 $983,826---> $277,481--> 6.1%
2005 $1,655,106--> $77,315--> 4.7%
2004 $207,647-----> $2,500--> 1.2%
2003 $283,327-----> $3,400--> 1.4%

Obama needs to put his money where his mouth is. WAY WAY LESS THAN 10% to charity.

I saw an interview on the Bill Moyers show where Moyers spoke to an older 'Goldwater' conservative a more current younger one.

Both of these men agreed that the current Republicans/Conservatives were a long way from what the conservative movement was originally supposed to be.

Surprising to me as a 'progressive' was that there were some things I agreed with with the older conservative........ policies and results matter regardless of party affiliation.

Too bad for America that real statesmen have all but vanished....... I will vote for Obama as I don't believe McCain, certainly not Palin, will be a solution for the country.

Only time will tell.

Freedom demands courage and truthfullness, not political cowardice. Go Obama GO!

Wow, what a statement to make about ACORN(obama). Here is a guy that worked for the orginzation that is responsible for the voter fraud. Truthfulness and not political cowardice is a vertue of this candidate, wow. Courage: he has to have the audacity to seal this election. For shame!!!
Jwench, just couldn't let this one pass.

This is the only place I can actually say who I will be voting for, can't put up a sign, or even the mention would maybe cause me harm.

You can thank your little rabid pit bull Sarah Palin for that, if what you say is true. She opened up the attacks and there are whacko's on both sides.

Posted by: Molly | Oct 14, 2008 12:30:56 PM

Your REPUBLICAN President has trampled all over the constitution over the past 8 years and you have the nerve to talk about freedom of speech? We're lucky we still have it. I guess you think wiretapping everyday US citizens is ok and the unjust war in Iraq.

Keep on spouting lies and nonsense just like your candidate. He can't even see his smears aren't working. Even some Republicans are backing away from him.

We'll see you on November 4th.

Obama/Biden '08

The basis of a democracy according to the US constitution is the seperation of the 3 powers: Legislative, Executive, and Judicial, this to avoid one group or party becoming dominant which could lead to dictatorship or tyranny. As the President (the executive power) has taken control over the judicial power by appointing the Supreme Court members himself, while the Senate and Congress (legislative power) does nothing about this. This implies that the United States nowadays, by it's own definition, is no longer a democracy. With the curbing of personal liberties and the establishment of the Homeland security (just literally translate this into German: Heimats Sicherheitsdienst, sounds scary!) I feel the US sliding more and more into the direction of a totalitarian regime. As a republican I have always defended freedom and patriotism, but the neoconservative interpretation of this is a far cry from what being a republican and freedom loving American is. With McCain I see only a continuation of these neoconservative policies and more playing on our fears. When HP Boston says 'the once proud pioneer american has been transformed into a whimpering neurotic poodle pisssing all over itself with fear!' I can only agree but we are only pissing ourselves with fear because our leaders think the only way we can win is by lying to our own people,hiding in our fortress America and bombing whoever they think is the bad guy, while at the same time supporting dictatorships as long as we can earn some bucks on them. Freedom demands courage and truthfullness, not political cowardice. Go Obama GO!

Jwench, I think I will do something else more productive. No one is going to change any minds with this garbage.
This is the only place I can actually say who I will be voting for, can't put up a sign, or even the mention would maybe cause me harm. This takes away my "freedom of speech". Is this the kind of America we want to live in, with fear and intimidation? That is why I will vote for McCain, I think he will keep me safer. If I am not safe I will not need a check from ACORN(obama) every January or any other handout ACORN(obama)he might be offering. I will not fall for his promises!!!!

Jwench,

From what I understand, McCain was at a public event on immigration where they were a group involved. That’s different from actually working closely with them, for years. Obama has also paid their affiliate, Citizens Services Inc., around $800,000 for “get out of the vote” activities (“On Obama, Acorn and Voter Registration,” NY Times).

Posted by: Erika | Oct 14, 2008 12:18:40 PM

Yeah whatever. He's a saint and has never done anything wrong. Believe what they tell you to be true. I am voting Obama because I want this country to become strong again.

I don't listen to Fox but obviously you do. Yeah you would laugh at McCain sitting there in all his glory. Obama is going to win, get used to him being your next President.

McCain and Palin and their supporters are attacking and it's not working. You would think they would be smart enough to see that. Most of the lies have been debunked. You just look like a parrot to keep repeating them.

People aren't falling for the smear and fear of the GOP this time. The lies keep coming and you just show how inept you and your candidate are about what's happening in this country.

Just to name a few.

Go over to yahoo news. It's posted right there. She also does not want to be a Supreme Court Justice or speaker of the house. Basically what she said was she wants to do the most good by staying in the Senate.

Don't care what she says!!! She has lied before. She isn't saying much now, because she doesn't want to step in it and ruin her chances for next time. They (BC&HC) aren't very active in the campaign, don't you think they really don't want ACORN elected. I think so.

As for McCain and ACORN(the org.) I had not heard that and cannot comment. But, bet he severed the ties when he found out..just like ACORN(obama)has done.

Posted by: HP Boston | Oct 14, 2008 11:47:20 AM

Here we go again with the GOP bs.

Why haven't you answered my question about McCain and ACORN?

Your smear tactics won't change anybody's mind in fact you drive away people from your candidate with the Hannity, FOX, Coulter garbage. If the smear tactics that McCain has been using were working he'd be up in the polls. People are tired of the smear and fear of the past.

Let’s see what would happen if McCain sat in a white supremacist, anti-American church for 20 yrs? If he associated with unrepentant terrorists and started his presidential campaign in a terrorist’s living room? If he would not give Americans the details of his college life, transcripts, health records, and birth certificate? If his wife spouted off how she was just now proud of her country? If he gave $800k or more to ACORN to get out the voter fraud for the repubs? If he flipped on every issue since the primary? If he planned to raise taxes and begin socialism and disguised it as “fairness for the middle class?” If he had truth squads arresting people against him and had his supporters spewing sexist slurs every day? You get my point. I bring this up to the bots and ask them what if McCain had done all this? They have nothing to say except “McCain is more of the same” and the line of this election…”you’re a racist.” The bots are useless morons who would follow any cult that gave them free reign with the media and local authorities to run around in mayhem terrorizing people, trashing cars, and getting in people’s faces.

If McCain had done 1 single thing on this list, his career would have been over. Bozo just says I didn’t do it or I didn’t know or you’re racist. This is the most disgusting, piece of crap election in history.

Posted by: HP Boston | Oct 14, 2008 11:41:35 AM

I am from PA and I HAVE thought long and hard. I am tired of the bs the last 8 years and I am willing to give Obama a chance to pull this country out of the sewer.

"plus he's been so erratic lately that it appears he has lost some of his marbles."

Can't take a chance with McCain leaving the nation with SP!

How would you fight back? The media is so entrenched with ACORN(obama) that no matter what is said it is twisted and turned to mean something else. You have got to be kidding if you thing ACORN will be better with foreign leaders than McCain. He would introduce himself and ask if they want to join him in a basketball game just to divert the attention from the business at hand.

HP Boston & Molly,
Why is it ok for John McCain to have had associations with them and not Obama? I am curious.

Hillary said NO WAY NO HOW to run again in 2012 so for all you Hillary supportes claiming your voting Mccain for A Hillary in 2012 guess what she aint gonna run!

Don't you bet on it. She has lied before, remember Whitewater? She wants to be President. This was probably put out by ACORN(obama) to get more fraudlent votes.

Jwench, guess if you are looking for handouts ACORN is your man!!

I think McCain's plans are more realistic. obama comes out with a new one everyday, sometime more than one....guess he will soon snag one he can make work in Washington. When I was a kid they would tell us about Russia, the rich had to give to the poor, this didn't work there and it will not work here.

Posted by: Molly | Oct 14, 2008 11:32:38 AM

McCain hasn't been doing anything lately except bashing his opponent. It's about time somebody thinks of the middle class. What plans does McCain have to keep giving tax cuts to the rich.

People are tired of the same old trickle down garbage that hasn't worked with the Republicans. Look at the shape of economy.

McCain also has had dealings with ACORN so he is not above any scrutiny on that .

Here's a little snippet for you to chew on regarding McCain and ACORN:

"On Monday, the Democratic-leaning group ACORN, which has been painted as a criminal enterprise by the GOP for its voter registration and housing policy efforts, pushed back against its critics by producing a photo of John McCain attending its March 2006 rally.
It was a reminder that, for all their electoral histrionics, Republicans have aligned themselves with ACORN in the past.

Indeed, in addition to the McCain photo, there is a host of examples of prominent McCain surrogates attending ACORN events, signing ACORN legislation, or complimenting the group's efforts."

Hillary said NO WAY NO HOW to run again in 2012 so for all you Hillary supportes claiming your voting Mccain for A Hillary in 2012 guess what she aint gonna run!

BTW Molly.
John McCain has had dealings with ACORN as well, so don't cast stones about that.

Who understands foreign policy better? Most said McCain which I can understand. I guess the question should have been "Who would do a better job negotiating foreign policy?" In this situation I would give the edge to Obama. I like how he meet with the world leaders and they accepted him very well. I don't think McCain would have well received, plus he's been so erratic lately that it appears he has lost some of his marbles.

Can't take a chance with McCain leaving the nation with SP!

Obama-Biden 08-16

Posted by: Molly | Oct 14, 2008 11:17:39 AM

What have the Republicans done along those lines. NOTHING. What ideas does McCain have for that. NONE.

Obama proposed the idea of community service for teens. At least that is a step in the right direction.

The media hates McCain/Palin..vote against the media..vote McCain/Palin.

A vote for obama is a vote for ACORN/Biden...dishonesty/egomania.

You obama left wingers must be young and naive, because you cannot recognize a REAL politican. I have voted in many elections, this one is different, we must save the United States of America from a socialistic government...listen to what they are promising and wonder just how they are going to pay for it.
No, I am not rich, I am a worker that has no job just like some of you, so I really do feel your pain.

If obama had said he would make the folks that do not work and never have get out and pick up trash along the streets and highways or other jobs being done by volunteers..they could earn money. Working makes you proud of yourself, which some in our society has never worked and has never experienced what it is like to be proud.

.

I see Hillary said there is zero chance of her running again in the future. All you Hillary supporters who think voting McCain will somehow open the door for here in 2012 are shooting yourself in the foot. BTW I was a Hillary supporter.

We American's can see who is the better leader for this Nation, Obama. We need to move on, start the jobs for our young and old. Feel positive, not negative. Now our part is to go and vote for Obama to make it happen.

"In Michigan, Obama leads:
60-32 among women;
48-44 among me;"

That second one is wrong.

Clearly 0bama leads 100-0 among jpt.

The most important poll stated above is Colorado. A Bush 2004 state.

I don't see how McCain can turn this around. People have made up their minds and there are very few "undecided" left.

McCain should forget about turning blue states red b/c he's losing red states.

Obama already has a double digit lead in Iowa and New Mexico. With Clorado... that brings Obama to 273. Winner.

Then you have Obama leading in Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Missouri, Nevada and tied in NORTH CAROLINA.

Actually, I think the do-do effect that we have suffered from for 8 years is already factored into these polls.

It just seems to me Conservatives are mad because most of America likes Obama and doesn't like their candidate. Heck Repubs cant choose between McCain or Palin.. McCain can only get big rallies when Palin is there.. it just shows no one cares about McCain. Conservatives don't even like their own ticket how can they expect the nation to?

Folks where I live can't express a like for McCain or we will get our windows broken or someother harm might come to us. So, we will save it until we get to the voting booth.

ok, so you present 3 out of 4 blue states and then say that this is grim news for McCain. Not trying to push an agenda, are we? Remember, if McCain holds all of the red states, he wins.

They hope to discourage McCain voters from going to the polls. This race is not over until the polls close in November. If you stay away from the polls, you are doing exactly what Obama and his allies at ABC, NBC, CBS and ACORN, the voter fraud specialists to whom Obama gave $800,000, want you to do.

** O No Obama supporters want you McCain Supporters to vote so when you lose fair and square you can finally shut your mouths... and you guys have the nerve to yell voter fraud... How fast we've forgotten 2004 and Florida! lmao Conservatives with no consciousness!

Obama's getting the smart vote. The people who aren't scared by the McCain tactics and believe that he will change America.. Instead of the same policies McCain and Bush love... Americans are tired of that ignorant to their issues because they can't understand. Remember Bush and McCain aren't the sharpest crayons in the box thats why they are mad Obama's winning because most people realize he's smart and McCain... average at the most... but def too old He needs to retire... he gave us 26 years of bad service... we will cut our losses and give him a good send off November 4th

Both Obama and McCain internal polls show this race is close – that’s why Obama is buying half-hour slots of TV. (Remember the last candidate who did that – President Ross Perot??) Much of the poll numbers put out by the MSM are skewed to favor the liberal candidate – big surprise there. McCain Democrats, do you really believe what the polls say, that 90% of Democrats are supporting Obama? Look around at your own families and friends - are they 90% on board for Obama? The liberal media is attempting to create an air of inevitability around Barack Obama by skewing polls, and by ignoring or playing down stories that might harm Obama. They hope to discourage McCain voters from going to the polls. This race is not over until the polls close in November. If you stay away from the polls, you are doing exactly what Obama and his allies at ABC, NBC, CBS and ACORN, the voter fraud specialists to whom Obama gave $800,000, want you to do.

I had to chuckle when I read your polling result in Michigan showing Obama leading McCain among "Me"......I guess that's for Acorn, right?.....where would I find a media force laying out the latest Acorn crap...not here, I know.

LOL......again, whose poll is conducting this?

I am sure most of you are aware that it would be NICE to see whom they polled....meaning, how many were democrats, how many were republicans and how many were Independents.

and I am baffled at the economy stats because I know for a fact that most small buisiness owners do NOT agree with those stats.

Also, how on earth can Obama fix the entire US Economy if he could not even make a low income housing project work in little ol Chicago???

Again....find out what counties they polled in and then find out if there were equal numbers from each party polled....I would be willing to bet my left foot that they are not because a lot of these polls, if you look up their info.......ARE OVERWHELMINGLY picking Democrats over Repubs or Independents.

Yeah the great polls are predicting Obama win like many of them predicted Kerry's win.

There are many Democrats voting for McCain as they cannot stand the radical Obama stealing their party.

Many INDEPENDENTS are upset at Obama and ACORN trying to steal the elections.

Posted by: Greg h | Oct 14, 2008 10:04:12 AM

Help us out here Jake. Why doesn't the poll list the breakdown of the sample?

Incidentally, I have a poll too:

1 vote for McCain-Palin

0 vote for Obama (D-ACORN)

The only poll that counts takes place on November 4 2008.

The contradicting and often conflicting poll results are good for the media but have proven largely unreliable.

The Republican ticket isn't strong and McCain will lose VA. VA is becoming more democratic by the day and have already become accustomed to a democratic governor who we love Tim Kaine! VA is for lovers and will turn blue Nov. 4th. I live on the conservative side of the state and I see much more Obama signs than McCain. Viriginians know the republican party has done nothing for us and we will be democratic turn Novemeber 4th!

Best part about these polls? He has the women's vote and they vote more than men do =)

Palin is really a joke.... shameful joke in the American history of presidential election

THE TRANSLATION OF :

trickle down economists

YOU CAN EAT OUR CRUMBS !

NO THANKS.......OBAMA GETS THIS FMR REPUBLICANS VOTE!

I agree with Jason.

IS SARAH PALIN THE BEST WE REPUBLICANS CAN DO???? I AM A WOMEN AND FOR THOSE WHO CARE A REPUBLICAN WOMEN. I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR THIS WOMEN. SHE INSULTS ME AS A WOMEN. WOMEN ARE SMART SHE DOES NOT REPRESENTS ME IN NO WAY!!!! IF MCCAIN THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO VOTE FOR THIS FOOL BASED ON GENDER THAT HE WAS WRONG.

NO WAY!! NO HOW!!!NO MCCAIN AND NO CLUELESS PALIN.

kaj - don't underestimate the republicans' ability to create a (phony)crisis to bump McCain up in the polls. It's been done before. Hey, maybe another war?

Even in the football playground,
the players do not get out of
the field until the last whistle,
no matter how many goals are
scored.
Keep going McCain until you hear
the last whistle. You have no
choice!

It's hilarious that more women than men say that Palin is unqualified. McCain chose Palin as an outright pander to disaffected Hillary supporters - as evidenced by Palin's first campaign speech in Ohio. Didn't turn out so well, apparently. And apparently much as McCain's campaign decried the sexism of the media - you know, when they tried asking Bubblehead legitimate questions - they are benefiting from some version of sexism. Men are more tolerant of Palin, partly because she winks at them.

Wow!!!! People have seen the light.

Obviously, some people have been listening and seeing what McCain/Palin are not doing - facing issues and sticking with some of Bush's policies - like taxes.

What hurt McCain was choosing Palin as a running mate. She is not a Hilary Clinton. I think McCain thought having a woman running mate, would help. But,
he really picked the wrong one. She has not helped, just hindered. I think McCain would have run if he had chose someone other than Palin. She is a plain out and out airhead, she may be pretty, but that's it.

As a republican I agree with these numbers. I just dont see nothing that McCain will bring to the table other than the same old fail policys of the last 8 years. McCain just dont get it. Everyday he looks more and more confused and he looks Ill. Americans undestand that if McCain is to fall ill due to his history with cancer, Palin will take over and Americans fear that scenario. They are rejecting this women who has become a joke, nationaly. They even call her cluless Sarah and I hate to say it but its for the right reasons. I ask my party is this the best we can do???? We republicans need to really do a better job in 2012 and that starts with a better candidate and by far a better VP, what was McCain thinking. Americans dont want another channey who abused his powers as a VP..Sarah was found guilty of abusing her powers as a governor. That shoud be enogh to say NO Palin, NOT THIS TIME. I will put by country first and vote for the best team around. Obama/Biden. Obama has proven to be a true leader this economic crisis. McCain errotic behavior is telling of what is to come if elected.

Stick a fork in McCain. This election is done. By the end of this week 30% of people will ahve voted. According to Zogby (a poll that actually under-reports Obama's support), Obama has a double digit lead amongst thsoe that ahve already voted. With that type of cushion, McCain is toast regardless of what happens.

Funny I listened to Mccain and Palins speech yesterday, Those two crack me up! Sara was babbling something about Senator Mccain will fight corruption in washington and the Lobbysist, and the ABUSE OF POWER among our Polticans I laughed so hard I cried, Seeing the Gov has abused her power. Mccain goes on to say My friends we cant afford the next 4 years like the last eight COPYING THE DEMS.funny coming from a man who thinks W Is a good President. And has made our Economy strong and has done good things for our country UNBELIVEABLE THEY TRULY ARE COMICAL! no wonder SNL ratings are up! and John Stewart and Colbert Rating are up, Mccain and Palin bring comedy relif!

tHERE SEEMS TO BE LOTS OF FOLK LIKE ME WHO ARE TRUNED OFF BY THE REPUBLICANS AFTER BUSH AND MCCAIN RUNNING AROUND LIKE A LOST OLD GUY AT A MALL WITH SARAH PALIN A LYING LITTLE NO NOTHING WEATHER GIRL THATS UNFIT TO LEAD A MCDONALDS CREW.

OBAMA THIS TIME!!!

NEXT TIME RNC OFFER A REAL CHOICE !

The Electoriasl Map looks different today. Obama 313, McCain 158 Real Clear Politics.

Wow. Awesome.

No surprises..

"For McCain, these numbers are just grim."

Indeed, and not one debate is going to change that. Something truly gruesome would have to happen for Obama's poll numbers to go down enough to give McCain a chance again.

I was told, when I signed up for this blog, that there would be no math?
