If it were a mannequin of Barack Obama...

it would be racist. Fortunately, it's just a mannequin of Sarah Palin that's strung up in a noose.

So that's OK.

John Kerry jokes that McCain wears Depends

Class act, that John Kerry.

Democracy, as defined by Democrats

Mickey Kaus has information that the Democrats, if Barack Obama wins, will be introducing card-check legislation for the unions.

If you don't know why card-check is the complete antithesis of democracy and how it reeks of corruptions, just read this.

The unions and their cronies will try to spin this in as positive a light as possible, but for a guy who has worked with unions and knows their ways, their lame explanations are full of crap.

Obama...now on T-shirts!

Wow, now we're seeing portraits of Obama on T-shirts.

What's next, portraits of him on walls and in every home?

Obama doesn't understand irony

Criticizing John McCain's pick of Gov. Sarah Palin for his VP, saying "today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency", is more than ironic.

Hey, Bill, if you hadn't noticed, Sarah Palin is also the governor of Alaska.

But hey, I guess it's somehow better in the Democratic world to have a guy with no experience as CinC than being VP.

Pathetic.

Oh, and did I mention than any criticism of Obama's experience is racist, but criticizing Palin's experience is A-OK?

Typical

Leave it to the Democrats to overspend and overlegislate something until it becomes a disaster.

Racial groupthink

It's crap like this that keeps disadvantaged minorities where they are: disadvantaged.

Money quote:

Patrice C. Queen, a freelance writer from East New York, Brooklyn, and a volunteer for Mr. Powell’s campaign, was especially upset that Mr. Towns had continued to back Mrs. Clinton even after her supporters made what she said were racially charged comments about Mr. Obama.

To her, the reason black leaders like Mr. Towns stuck with Mrs. Clinton was obvious. “Racial self-hatred,” said Ms. Queen, who is black. “It was as if they were saying: ‘We people of color are not ready yet. We’re not ready to be in the White House.’ Self-hatred does that to you.”

Pathetic. I imagine if T-Pain or Flo Rida were running for President, Ms. Queen would say the same thing.

You can't shake your past, even if you're Obama-Jesus

Chicago politics ain't beanbag.

Obama, the truth will out.

Obama = Bush

Hmmm...this from WaPo:

Mr. Obama said that "if there would be a Democratic administration, it will not take any irresponsible, reckless, sudden decisions or action to endanger your gains, your achievements, your stability or security. Whatever decision he will reach will be made through close consultation with the Iraqi government and U.S. military commanders in the field."

Emphasis mine.

Now doesn't that sound a bit like, oh, I don't know...George Bush?

Obama: He takes 'Change' a little too literally!

So Barack Obama has backed out of a pledge to use public finances for the general election now that he has a lot of money coming in through the door.

What rank opportunism and Obama had the gall to blame McCain for not getting it done.

That's right, Obama. When you can't get something done, you blame the other guy. That doesn't sound like change. It sounds like the same old, same old in Washington politics.

I mean, Obama's excuse is that they tried to negotiate with the McCain camp, but couldn't get anywhere. McCain's camp promptly cried foul and essentially called the Obama camp a bunch of liars. When pressed, Obama's campaign counsel changed his story and now says that he "negotiated" for 45 minutes and gave up.

Wow, if 45 minutes is the best Obama could come up with when negotiating with McCain, just how well is he going to do with Iran?

How pathetic, and the Obamabots will drink it up like Kool-Aid and spin until they're dizzy. I support McCain, but at least I don't think he's the second coming of Jesus Christ.

The Democratic debate

Is it me, or is Joe Biden the most reasonable person about foreign policy among the Democratic field?

Still wouldn't consider voting for any of them though.
