McCain Hopes Amnesia Will Get Him Elected.

clipper's remarks: The American people would have toforget the last eight years to elect McCain and they would have to fall once again for the politics of divide and conquer, the politics of personal destruction rather than a politics that looks at facts and future plans.

McCain has been part of the problem and now he's going to go in a fix it all? What a joke.

The Republicans are FEMA. The Republicans are a still devasted New Orleans. The Republicans are stealing billions of dollars from taxpayers and putting profit into the pockets of Wall Street bankers. (maybe even TRILLIONS, with this latest bailout of failed mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac).

The Republicans have led us into a war losing 4,000,plus of our own troops and now probably having killed 500,000 Iraqi's or more, cost us more billions (and maybe TRILLIONS) -- and this is for facts we now know are not true...Iraq had no connection to 9/11 and no WMD's

But, forget all that. Amnesia. Vote for McCain. He has Alzheimer'

McCain is Running on the Amnesia Platform, But It's Democrats Who Need to Forget Sarah Palin

According to McCain, "We need to change the way government does almost everything: from the way we protect our security to the way we compete in the world economy; from the way we respond to disasters to the way we fuel our transportation network; from the way we train our workers to the way we educate our children."

Listening to McCain, you'd think it was the Democrats who occupied the White House the last seven-plus years and it was time to throw the bastards out.

Creation versus Consumption 22comments

What good is a book if it’s not being read? What good is a notebook if it’s not collecting your thoughts? What good is a pair of running shoes if you’re not out running? What good is a keyboard if you’re not practicing your music?

A lot of us want to accomplish something great. We want to read the great works of Western literature. We want to train for and run in a 5K. We want to write the “Great American Novel.” We want to have the perfect home for our family.

Directions

By New York City Public Transit:

Five bus lines (the M4, M5, M11, M60, M104) and one subway line (the #1) serve the Columbia neighborhood. The M60 bus is a direct link between the campus and LaGuardia Airport. The subway stop for the campus is Columbia University/116th Street. Please note: if you begin your subway journey on the #2 or #3 express train, be certain to transfer at 96th Street to the #1 train, as the #2 and #3 trains turn away from Manhattan’s Upper West Side before 116th Street.

All good questions for Palin

clipper's remarks: As long as we focus on the wrong stuff, her personal life, we won't get to see what she doesn't (can't) know.

Moroccan author and blogger Laila Lalami calls the situation a "train wreck," urging us to question Sarah Palin's foreign policies rather than focus on her family:

...It's obvious she's been selected more for her life story than for her meager domestic credentials. For God's sake, her state has fewer people than Brooklyn. As for her foreign policy knowledge, I'd like to see someone ask her about the nuclear non-proliferation treaties or the difference between a Sunni and a Shia or where the Green Line falls or how she plans to handle relations with Pakistan. But I won't bet on it. I suspect we'll keep hearing about the pregnant girl and the hockey player boyfriend instead.

Government backs down to energy companies

clipper's remarks: The government deny caving in to energy companies over cash rebates for households struggling to pay fuel bills

Clip Source: news.bbc.co.uk

"We need to legislate to cap these prices rises from these greedy utilities here so that we help the ordinary family in our country - if we don't do that then we would have betrayed our people and betrayed our party."

The government has been accused by opponents of allowing speculation about a one-off payment to run wild over the summer, after a senior official was overheard discussing the plan on a train.

Children’s Stationery

Sprinkles is a big proponent of instilling good habits in Children while they are young, hence we design Thank You notes and other childrens stationery that match many of our Birthday Invitations. Writing a short and sweet Thank You note is not only considerate, but it’s a good way to teach your child the importance of the hand-written letter. In this day and age, hand-writing letters is a rare and dying practice, yet it shows a special effort from the author to express thanks. Why not teach your children to do the same? If they write Thank You notes now, most likely it will become a habit they will keep for the rest of their lives.

Couples Shower Invitations are very popular for wedding showers and baby showers these days. They are a great way to involve both the bride and groom and combine efforts from their friends for a fabulous party. Sprinkles has many different types of couples shower invitations and most of them can be used for any theme you may have in mind. In our experience, it’s best to have some entertainment other than gift opening during these couples showers. For example, men and women will typically split up and congregate with each other so possibly hiring live music will liven up the crowd and get more people to inter-mix with conversation or sit together to listen to the music. Also, if you decide to play some kind of game, we find that if you get one or two people from both sexes involved, they can usually recruit the others to participate. Check out our Couples shower invitations cards for more details.

The cost of Sarah Palin

clipper's remarks: We'll see what happens but I don't this was well thought out...

Clip Source: www.dailykos.com

Well, surely the populace is convinced McCain, that straight-talking express train that he is, made the decision for the right reasons?

The public agrees, the press agrees, everyone agrees: this was a Hail Mary pass by the McCain campaign to win the election. It was a move borne out of desperation, as they started to realize that Clinton supporters and Democratic women are, by and large, not sufficiently stupid to abandon their Democratic ideals because their favored candidate lost.

It has backfired. Sarah Palin excites the conservative base, and that's great for them. She doesn't do much for anybody else, and her selection forces the McCain campaign to abandon the one good talking point they had, for if Sarah Palin is experienced enough to be president, Obama is experienced enough to be God.

"John McCain chose Sarah Palin because he thought having a woman on the ticket would help him get elected."
