ANOTHER FEMINIST TAKES ON SARAH PALIN—ENTERTAINMENT DEOESN’T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!
Naomi Wolfe (you know - the one who told Algore that “earth tones” would make the electorate swoon at his feet?) has written a marvelous screed at the HUFFINGTON POST.
I can’t recommend it highly enough if you need a good laugh.
IT LOOKS LIKE SENATOR OBAMA MESSED UP HIS FIRST BIG EXECUTIVE DECISION AS A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT
At least, it looks like he might have…..
Senator Biden has criticized his own campaign’s advertising; disagreed with his running mate’s position on bailing out AIG, and now he’s TOLD KATIE COURIC
.
.
“When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the princes of greed,” Biden told Couric. “He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened.’”
.
.
Is Joe Biden trying to manufacture an excuse for Obama to drop him from the ticket in favor of Hillary? He *did* say that she would probably have been a better choice for VP than he was.

I KEEP HEARING THAT THE McCAIN/PALIN ADVERTISING IS FULL OF LIES…..I DIDN’T BELIEVE IT, UNTIL THIS
HOCKEY MOMS FOR TRUTH has got the goods on the fraud that is Sarah Palin….I’m sure you’ll be as shocked as I was to see how badly we’d been fooled. What a narrow escape!!

WE’LL BE WATCHING TO SEE WHAT FACTCHECK.ORG HAS TO SAY ABOUT THIS AD…..
FACTCHECK.ORG is reputed to be a non-partisan analyst of political advertising.

Let’s see what they do with THIS EXAMPLE OF THE GENRE

WANT MORE OIL PRODUCTION….? TELL YOUR CONGRESS-CRITTERS TO VOTE *AGAINST* THE NEW “DRILLING PLAN”
It’s a fraud. Among other things, it will
.
* Permanently ban access to about 97 percent of the undersea oil lying within 50 miles of the California coast.
* Continue the ban on energy production in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico.
* Impose a brand-new ban on oil and gas leases in Alaska’s coastal waters out to 50 miles.
* Not allow states that approve new leases beyond 50 miles to share royalties with the federal government, thus stripping any financial incentive for states to stand up to environmental pressure groups, who will continue to agitate against any new oil and gas
operations offshore.
CHARITY…..HELPING THE UNFORTUNATE? APPARENTLY, BIDEN LETS THE GOVERNMENT TAKE CARE OF IT!
What else can you say, when a man earning hundreds of thousands of dollars each year, and almost $2.5 million in the 10 years from 1998 to 2007, gives 0.15% of his income to charity?
Unless, of course, he gives large amounts, but doesn’t take the charitable tax deduction—that *is* a possibility, of course.
Here’s the record from his tax returns:

SOMETHING IMPORTANT THAT I AGREE WITH BARACK OBAMA ABOUT…...
Thursday, September 11, 2008
.
Obama says ROTC should return to Ivy league
.
Barack Obama says that ROTC should be allowed on campuses such as Columbia and allow an honest debate among students. He believes that the disparity (minority, economic class) can be fixed, and he also rejects a draft.
