It appears that this year’s presidential election has got the entire country riled up and monopolizing our daily conversations. How dare McCain throw everyone for a loop when he named a WOMAN to be his vice-presidential choice.


The nerve of him….picking someone the media had no clue about before his announcement. That’s just not fair. That makes the left wingers have to scramble to dig up any and all dirt possible on someone that brings not just a breath of fresh air but a hurricane of freshness into an otherwise lame race for the White House.

 

Now let me see, where to start?  Let's do a study in contrast, Google up US Magazine and see what happens….Take a look at the hatchet job they did on Mrs. Palin compared to the glowing cover story on Barack Obama.

 

I guess it’s the sense of fairness that lives within me that makes my blood boil when I see injustice in action. Take a look at the National Organization of Women….have you ever seen or heard of them making any kind of protest over prostitution in Nevada or strip clubs?  How about PETA!  They will rally and protest over the killing of a whale but says nothing about the abortion of millions of children. No, not a peep.

 

Now we have a WOMAN, who could end up being the president of the United States in a few short years and the fire and fury of the media has begun to raise its ugly head.

 

Let's consider the following points.

 

When Sarah Palin made her acceptance speech, there was widespread criticism about ‘she used a prepared speech’.  Well, duh….who doesn’t?  What politician in recent times hasn’t?  Do they point out that Obama’s speeches are written for him as well and that he cannot string three words together without saying   ‘uh, uh…’ if he doesn’t have a teleprompter?  Of course you do not hear much about the teleprompter malfunction during her speech.  If it had happened to Obama he could not have carried on.

 

They criticized her hair style.  They say it looks as if she has been wearing it for twenty years.  One comment said there wasn’t any way she could be president since a lack of current hair styles shows how much she is out of touch with fashion styles.  Get real!  Since when does how you have your hair cut have anything , whatsoever, to do with your administrative abilities?

 

As long as I can remember the Democrats have been against ‘the little woman at home’ concept.  They have preached for years that a woman can work and have a home life at the same time.  The idea of a woman staying at home and taking care of her family while she washes, cooks and cleans has been a standard plank in their ‘equality’ platform.  Now, they are rising up to throw stones at Sarah Palin by saying since she has five children, her place is at home taking care of her husband and those little babies.  Now, as I recall Nancy Pelosi also has five kids,  I do not recall anyone said anything about them when she got elected speaker of the house.

 

Can you believe Sarah has a pregnant unmarried daughter?  Oh, the shame of it all.  Several pundits have said that if Mrs. Palin was more concerned over her family instead of politics, she might have been able to prevent this from occurring.  I find comments such as these to be offensive coming from a group of liberals that revels in unmarried couples having multiple children before they ever consider marriage.  Just take a look at Hollywood.  As I recall a certain segment of the Democratic base had an unwed mother rate of about 60%.  I haven’t heard the media chastise anyone over this bit of reality.

 

Several commentaries said the attention on Mrs. Palin’s unmarried, yet pregnant, daughter was bound to place a lot of stress on her and could have long term damaging effects to this young lady.  Maybe I’m wrong, but I seem to recall a Democrat President, several years ago, who had an affair with an intern in the White House. That Democrat President had to undergo an impeachment trial.  I must be getting old and forgetful, but I can’t recall anyone alleging that this had any negative effects upon the President’s daughter.  I’ll bet you can’t either.

 

Excuse me, I forgot, any ‘personal’ comments about any Democrats are ‘off limits’.  It is their private life after all.  Kind of like the fact that the liberal news media knew about the John Edwards affair but choose not to disclose it. It was their own personal and private business.  He was in the race for the Democratic nomination wasn't he?  Oh I forgot, I don't have a right to know about his ‘personal’ life.

 

Last, but not least, are the comments being circulated about Sarah’s husbands DUI arrest over twenty years ago.  He was twenty two years old at the time and had not married Sarah.  Of course this item is getting lots of news coverage, whereas the revelation that Obama made concerning his dope days has not raised a ripple. “Obama was a young man at the time” one of the liberal apologists said.  I don’t think Mr. Palin’s DUI resulted in anyone getting hurt or dying, but the same cannot be said for the darling of the Democratic Party…Senator Ted Kennedy.  Oops, there goes that private thing again.. I keep forgetting that everything they do is personal and private and everything a Republican does is fodder for the cannons.

One other thing that needs to be mentioned and correct me if I am wrong but the problems we now face did not start until the DEMOCRATS took control of the legislature!

The way I see things, you are correct.  How so many people can be deceived by the Democrats is amazing to me.  When people put their welfare above the welfare of the nation this is what you get.  Their vote is "for sale" cheep.  Just promise to give me more of everything and you get the vote.  It is time to stop and think about what happens when the well runs dry.  These third and forth generation families what are on the government assistance programs think they can't make it without being on one government program or another.  They have forgotten how to work.  If they work they will miss all their daytime TV shows that reinforce their rights to "free money".  The only thing free about it is the money did not come from them.  It came from you and I.  If the democrats get more involved in the health care of the people of this nation we will cease to have quality health care available.


Enough, I must get off of the soap box and learn from the rest of you.

ALH.............I could not of said it better. When I look at the Democrats I see Major Dysfunction. This is the best word I could think of that encompasses all of them. The Far Left is more like the FAR SIDE. ( the old crazy comic strip ).


I was watching an Interview with Mr Wonderful ( AL Sharpton ) on TV this evening. The level of dillusional thinking on his part is almost hysterical. The Man cannot answer even one question about McCain or Palin without blabbereing on about President Bush. This is all THEY ( The Far Left ) have in their arsenal. McCain is another Bush....blah blah blah.


Simply stated......Obama has only 3 Political accomplishments. #1) Senator for 147 days & Voting " Present ".....instead of actually making a choice . #2) Wrote not 1 but 2 Memoir's....( of coarse he had a lot of extra time on his hands due to the fact that he wrote ZERO Laws & only piggy backed on the most Liberal Bills. #3 ) Community Organizer.....( not the whole community of coarse , just the Black Community ).....kind of like the NAACP or Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson groups.....ya know the Racist dynamic duo.  


When I listen to Nobama  speak I hear a lot of noise. I see a lot of self adoration. I see a man that loves to be idolized. I see a man that wants his own presidential seal. I see a man that has risen to a level that makes absolutely no sense. His OWN choice for VP ( Biden ) said it himself...." Obama has NO experience...and the Presidency is no place for on the job training " . Hillary also said ......." McCain has a lot of Political experience both here in the US & Overseas ..........ETC ETC .............and Obama has a nice speach in 2002 ". ...................I don't get it. They ( the Dems ) are nuts. Their own front runners have said many times what a NOTHING this guy is but they Nominate him anyway.


And now look how they treat Palins Daughter. They attack a Teen age girl. Disgusting.........but yet .....not surprising. The Democratic Party has a VERY Long history of Lawless disgusting Immoral Acts. They will piss on your leg and say it's raining. Actually they may throw piss on you like the nuts outside the RNC. They actually had Urine for the purposes of throwing it on people. Is it me or are these people completely out of there minds.


The party that " claims to be " All about womans equal rights & equal pay etc etc etc........ now attacks Palin because she has a family. Say what ? Can you say Sexist ? Can you say Hypocrits ?   How about that she has TONS more job experience than Barry Hussein.


I could go on for pages & pages on the things that they ( The Dems ) do that nuts. They blame Bush for high gas prices.............Uh what ? Wake Up Lefty's !!! Its your democratic stonewalling congress that is 100% responsible. It's OK for you to fill your little cars with foreign gas.........but once they raise the price that's Bush's fault ?? FYI- OPEC controls the foreign price....not us. If we could drill in our OWN country we would not need foreign oil..............ooops I forgot.....all we have to do is inflate our tires like in nascar. Thanks Obama......the energy crisis is solved........................................moron.


I just want to say .... Thank God I was not born Sane thought Impared,  Dysfuntional ,  Immoral,  Narcisistic, or Just plain out of touch with Reality. Thank God .............or I would have to call myself a Democrat..........the party that is PUBLICLY supported by IRAN & ALL Terrorist Organizations Worldwide.......FACT.

I agree with you completely. 


When I was in college, just about everyone there, including the professors, lived in a dream world.  I graduated and found out what he real world is all about.  However, some people never grow up are Democrats their whold life.  Bill Clinton, Gov. of Arkansas, President of the United States, never had a real job in his life.  I know the man and he has only one thing on his mind.  He is the best lier I have ever met.  He is the HERO of the Democrats.  How can a lier be a HERO.  How can a political party be built on lies and the people in this nation not come to realize what is happening to them.


The President does not make laws, it is congress that makes the laws.  It is congress that kill every attempt to make this nation, a nation that can survive without the rest of the world.  Look at what Russia has done while we are tied up in the 'war on terror'.  They are busy rebuilding the USSR.  It is unacceptable that the USA is the only super nation in the world.  They are busy creating another evil super power to keep us from fighting evil where we find it.


The Democrats want us to have open borders so they can push us into the North American Union and cread an new currency, which will be worth about half what the dollar is today.  They want to bring us down to the level of other nations instead of bring others up to our level.


No nation can have survive with more than one culture and more than one language.

It is strange that I received an e-mail from a friend today that was very close to my post and attributed to someone else.

Unfortunately the Liberal Loons have control of the main stream media and use it to their full advantage.  If you based your vote purely on media coverage then the Democrats appear to be the saviors of our nation, saving us any and all war, from religious zealots, lower taxes, Right-To-Life Conservatives, George Bush Republicans, Reagan Republicans, Republican Republicans, and the list goes on and on......infinitum. 


Fortunately there are enough free thinking people in this country that see the Democrats and the Liberal Main Stream Media for what they actually are, and these people are willing to take a stand against the Lunatic Liberal Democrats,  Thank God (Oh no.....did I just mention God?  I must be a religious zealot).

I have no intention to run for President.  Right now I hold the Arkansas Constitutional Position as Constable and am running for the city council in Springdale, AR.  I think I have enough on my plate right now.

The left is suffering from a sever case of Palin Madness Syndrome (PMS). THere is no amount or dosage of Pamprin that will rid them of this dreaded disease. Come November they will be crying in their milk once again as they find that America has rejected their newest commie scumbag.

If you want to see how much the mainstream media wants Obama elected read the above interview and see what was LEFT OUT of the Gibson interview broadcast, about 30% of the interview.

You know, I don't really call myself a Republican anymore because they've let me down so much over the years.   But I'm really glad I joined this group - what a bunch of great posts and people!   Makes me feel good to know there's still common sense out there despite the evil influence of the media (who dare to call themselves journalists)   Like Reagan said of the "dumocrats" when he switched parties - "It wasn't that I left the Democratic party, its that they left me..."

I wish they would just change the names to conservative and liberal.  The name Republican and Democrat does not tell  you anything.

I just read the Gibson / Palin Interview. The amount & type of omissions is disgusting. When dealing with the Left Controlled  Media the Conservative interviewee should sign a contract stating that no parts of the interview can be edited and or deleted without the complete permission of the the Interviewee. And so ............The Liberal Biased Media continues !!

Mr. ALH,


I certainly applaud your post. May I say sir, you do wax poetic and I believe the lantern of truth has been delivered to it's rightful owner. I will not waste space here stating my views and/or opinions on this matter, as doing so would invariably be merely repeating yours, albeit, somewhat less eloquently.


It does my heart good to know that I am amongst like thinkers. Thank you Sir, again.

P.S. And I formally take back MOST of what I said about Arkansas while in Little Rock recently. My comments concerning Golden Coral still stand though!

I don't think I deserve such praise.  Like I posted on another thread I just write what I feel.
