The Dark Knight

Brilliance. Utter Brilliance.
This may be the greatest superhero flick of all time.
Heath Ledger was amazing as Joker.
If you haven't gone and seen this film, the terrorists win...lol. No seriously, go and see this movie.

flip flops

with all this talk about flip flops, I noticed mine were worn out. So I went to the local wal-mart and purchased me a new pair.
We are now in an age where a candidate can't change their mind. What if they were on the wrong side of the issue to begin with?
Funny thing flip-flops are. McCain wanted Bush to veto the new G.I. Bill and now he says he was for it. He gets called out for his lousy Veteren voting record and he says the person is wrong even thought the guy has stacks of papers with McCain's voting record printed on them. Oh the comedy never seems to end.
John McCain's idea of Pork projects include Social Security, Medicare and Medicade, Unemployment benefits and  the School Lunch program. Oh yeah the U.S. will be better without those programs won't we? The Republicans have tried to do away with those programs for decades. Especially Social Security. They tried to get that declared unconstitutional when FDR signed it to law back during the waning days of the depression when the New Deal was enacted.
Now George Bush is trying to enact a 'legacy'. A 'legacy' of what? An Illegal war that has made us less safe? A failed policy that that still has the man resonsible for the worse castastrophe in American history STILL AT LARGE? Gas at $4 a gallon? An economy that is starting to rival the GREAT DEPRESSION? War crimes? Trying to destroy the American Constitution and the Bill of Rights? What a "legacy".

Hillary has gone too far

I'm not even going to try to understand her comments. I am far beyond irate at this time it is hard to not type a profane thought. To state that the only reason she is still in the race is that something might happen to Sen. OBama is morbidly profane.
Tonight while watching Keith O. on MSNBC, his 'special comment' sums it up for me. But add some curse words and raise the tone in his voice and you get the idea.
Hillary should be arrested by the secret service and charged with communicating a threat to Sen. OBama. Just like they would do to anyone else.

John McCain War President invades Cuba

Don't look now, but within the first year of McCain's presidency we will invade CUBA. He will pull a Bush and make it look like we are doing the right thing. Talking about "regime" change and all. In his most recent speech, he sounded that exactly.
Now why after 50 years, don't we try a different approach? Could it be all these years of sanctions had an adverse effect on the Cuban people. There is No Soviet Union to support Cuba. What would a 'regime change" in Cuba bring? More money for Bush and Cheney's favorite company Halliburton. Look at the money they are pocketing from Iraq. Do you think Iraq is better? Hell no. But Bush and Cheney are richer.

Cindy McCain loves genocide

So much she invested in the Sudan. Home of Darfur. Land of genocide. Then she goes and says she knows nothing about it. ROTFLMAO!!! If I was supporting a regime that sponsored the mass killing of people, i would know about it.
Just another reason NOT to vote for McCain.

Hillary wins West Virginia

So we're happy for her? Let's throw a pity party for her. What does her seemly crushing victory in West Virginia amount to? Nothing. Nada. The big ZERO. Zilch, zippo and bumpkus. She still trails in pledged, super and the popular vote. Let her go out on a high note. She doesn't have the money to remain in the race. When does the election board step in and say "no more loans to yourself"? She's desperately trying to prove a non-point. That white middle class Americans cannot or will not vote for a Black candidate. Oh she disguises it as she has won bigger states. But Sen. OBama has won more states than her. Black and white, Conservative and liberal, North and South, Youth and Old, Money and No Money. The only thing she has not tried or is trying right now as I type this entry is STRONG ARM the super delegates. Of yes the MIGHTY SUPER DELGATES!!! The Democratic party stalwarts that were put in place to make sure the states didn't nominate a weak candidate. See Hillary and Bill will use all of their powers to basically tell the Supers that if they support OBama, there will be hell to pay. Oh, Nick your just being paranoid you say. The Clintons would never, ever do something underhanded like that you say. They will and this is how. The Clintons know alot of people with extremely DEEP POCKETS. The guys that give up to and sometimes over the limit of how much you can give to a candidate (they disguise the donation through some dummy corp.). Now all it takes is ONE 3 A.M. phone call and that money a candidate needed towards re-election/election disappears. Politics as usual.
Now here's Hillary late last year. She would declare for the Presidency. The rest of the candidates drop out by Super tuesday and in the fall it's HER convention. Problem is, she never considered that a very charismatic African American Senator from the state of Illinois would run. And not only did he run, he has beaten her in 75% of the primaries and caucasses. She can't handle that. So she wants Florida and Michigan to count, even though they were DQ'd for moving their primaries up. She says the end total id 2209 even though the DNC and the rest of the media and America says the total is 2025. She wants to count on state where she was the only candidate on the ballot (Michigan) and another state where no one could campaign in (Florida). She figures those tallies as they stand right now plus strong arming the Super Delegates to back her equals victory. She says only the Big Delegates matter. Now without Michigan and Florida, she does a 180 and says all states matter and that she's staying in it up to the convention. In the meantime, OBama should be getting ready for November. Hillary is trying desperately now to make OBama unelectable. If not to the Supers, but to the American people. She figures she'll win in 2012 instead of waiting for possibly 2016, when OBama's second term in office is over. Sounds like sour grapes to me. We don't need a 3RD BUSH PRESIDENCY.

Gas Holiday? More like Gas Nightmare

So Hillary and McCain want to suspend the federal gas tax? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
People, let me explain it to you so you will understand why this is bad. The Federal rate is 18 cents. Big Oil will raise the price of gas 18 cents a gallon so that the windfall will go into their pockets--NOT YOURS! And then when the Holiday is over, you will pay 36 cents more a gallon for gas. Big Oil stnds to make millions. That 18 cents is money they don't get. The government does. Without the govt., they can get that 18 cents.
The only way for the price of gas to go down is for the US to flood the market with oil from Iraq, who still hasn't gone back to pre-war levels of oil production. It is artificially raising the price of oil, since the US and their Haliburton connections can tinker with the supply.

Americans must like being lied to

Tomorrow the people of the great state of Pennsylvania go to the polls for their turn. They can signal the end to the fight between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. But I'm saying that if you vote for Hillary, you must like being lied to. I thought being honest was a great American virture we seek in a politician.
Let's count up the lies okay?
#1- She will garnish your wages if you don't buy her universal health plan. Hillary said the plan would do that on National TV during a debate. Now she's trying to say it doesn't?
#2- She has more experience. Her personal itinerary as first lady staes she never sat in on a meeting where major policies were discussed. NONE.
#3- She landed in Bosnia under the threat of heavy sniper fire. This was busted as soon as the video came out.
#4- she likes to bring up Rev. Wright and Rezco, but we all know about Monica and Whitewater don't we? They lied about whitewater and almost every scandal during the Clinton presidency.
#5- she supported NAFTA from day 1. Even said "It's good for the American people". Now she wants to end it saying we should never have passed it
#6-She voted to give Bush authorization to go into Iraq. Now she says she's against it
 
WOW!! That 6 whoppers that Hillary Rodham Clinton has said to the American people. I thought we teach our kids to be honest and not to lie. "The truth shall set you free?" "Honesty is the best policy?". So how is it that people will vote for her? Gluttons for punishment?
I really do think Hillary is on a "If it can't be me, it won't be him" mission. She figures if she can't get the nomination she will sink whoever ends up with it by helping the Republicans and she will get the nomination in 2012.
It's time to end this. Vote for Obama Pennsylvania. Tell Hillary the truth.

Is that a Pledge pin on your Uniform!?!!?!

So that's it? Because Barack Obama doesn't wear an American flag lapel pin he's unfit to be president? Anyone notice Hilary wasn't wearing one? Or either of the debated Moderators? Please. Why don't we run this election on the issues? Is a flag pin going to solve $3.25 a gallon gas prices? How about the millions of jobs that left the US as a result of NAFTA and other free trade agreements? Or how about the homeless who don't have a place to live or food to feed their children? Or the person who is seriously sick and doesn't have the money to pay for their medicine? Tell me how not wearing a Flag pin is going to solve that? Do you really think I'm that stupid?
Or how about this one. We'll see if we can find any dirt on his friends. What do someone's  friends have to do with the ability of that person to the President of the US? Once again I ask you, do you really think I'm that stupid?
When someone can't run on their own merits, the first thing they do is mudsling. Get enough gullable people (i.e. stupid) and we can get elected. Hillary wants to talk about friends, fine. What about your good friends the MacDougals? You know the ex-cons that continually were going to prison because of WhiteWater?
But back to work, just because someone doesn't wear a lapel pin, or cover their heart during the national anthem or badly warble the words to the song doesn't make anyone more or less of a patriot. Guess what I do all 3. And I served in the US Navy for 4 years so I could defend my right to be able to not do any of that if i wanted to.
So what I'm asking you is do you like being called "Stupid" by Hilary and the Republican Media?

The real reason for high gas prices

Bush and Cheney will make millions as soon as they leave office. They have oil shares in a blind trust. The higher oil is a barrel the more money they will make. Why do you think the US is saber rattling with Venezuela and Iraq? To drive oil prices higher. We control the #4 largest oil reserve in the world aka Iraq. Notice they aren't putting any oil on the market? To drive up the price of oil. It's a conspiracy against the American people. If not, it's sure a conflict of interest. Why don't someone ask Bush or Cheney about it? Because they are scared, that's why. They know that Bush and Cheney's buddies will make life miserable for anyone who dares call them on it. Congress won't do anything. The oil companies get their benefits straight from the oval office. Why doesn't Bush release oil from the strategic reserve? Because it might hurt his little nest egg. And if he denies it I'm calling him a LIAR!! I'll say it straight to his face. He's making MILLIONS on the blood of American Servicemen. Why do you think Bush wants to stay in Iraq? To keep up the price of oil.
Back in the 80's when gas was under a $1 a gallon lots of the Republicans high dollar donors took a bath with the price of oil being low. Right now they're are soaking the American public to the tune of $3.25 a gallon. Since Bush came into office the price of gas has gone up $2 a gallon. And this summer they are predicting $4 a gallon.
If Iraq was producing at pre-war levels they artificially inflated oil market bubble would burst and gas would come down. If you could control the 4th largest oil reserve, you would basically shut off the taps and watcxh the market race upward. And if you have stock in an oil company you would make out like a bandit. Guess who owns oil stock? Bush and Cheney.

Lewinsky, Whitewater, travelgate etc

Why isn't the media talking about these subjects? Is it off-limits?
Someone keeps asking Chelsea about. Well when she says it's none of my business, well it is my business. My tax money was used to pay for the Kenneth Starr special prosecution of her father. The Lewinsky affair and Jennifer Flowers affair almost resulted in the removal of a US President. Isn't that the American people's business?
If Hillary can't command Bill to keep it in his pants how can she command anything? I know your laughing but I am just saying she fails a Commander in Chief. Not on just that alone. She has no experience. Zero, Zilch, Nada. She was 1st lady of Arkansas and the US. Which is about as much experience as a Miss America pagent winner or a greeter at Walmart. She lied when saying she was in Bosnia under threat of sniper fire. There is video evidence that supports that fact. I wonder what other "Tall tales" are hiding in her itineries. She was 1st lady. She has NO POWER to enter treaty negotiations or speak on behalf of the Presidency or Congress in any political matters. If trading recipes with the Chancellor of Germany's spouse counts as experience then we aren't in Kansas anymore Toto.
She had an ad that ran that said that at 3 AM she would be ready to answer a phone call. Well what if the phone call was from Monica wanting Bill to come down to their "special place" cause she has a new blue dress? Hillary wants to bring up Rezco, well while we are talikng about real estate deals, how about that Whitewater deal Hillary's law firm had. You know the one where the MacDougals spent years in prison taking the bullet for the Clinton's on? And what about Vince Foster's death?
These are tough questions. They need to be asked. Repeatedly. She says she's ready on Day 1 and i say she shouldn't get to day 1.
Vote for Barack Obama. He's above all this scandal business. He'll be ready on Day 1.

John McCain U.S. war coward

While attached to the U.S.S. Forrestal, John McCain hid in sick bay while the rest of his crewmates valiantly fought a fire that almost resulted in the ship being scuttled. As an officer John McCain should have led the fire fighting efforts. This fire is a Navy Training Video now on how not to fight a fire at sea. John McCain is UNFIT to be Commander In Chief. I give you exhibit 1A. He hid like a frightened child in sickbay while valiant sailors lost their lives trying to save his. I wonder if he really was tortured by the vietnamese. He sure did cave to Bush on the torture bill.

John McCain

Can we get a special prosecutor to investigate this? You know with possible libel charges the NY Times wouldn't rush to print a story that wasn't true. Just like with ex-President Bill Clinton, let's get the real story behind this instead of McCain's campaign denying the story and saying it is a "Hit and Smear" job. McCain may have violated ethics laws here. So far all I've seen is various Republican mouthpieces on Fox News, MSNBC and CNN given full reign to decry this as a hatchet job. Why haven't these reporters done their journalistic duty and checked the story out? Or are they afraid of what happened to Mary Mapes when she reported that George Bush deserted his National Guard post during the Vietnam War might happen to them? You all know the story. How the right wing bloggers made a story that was as true as the day is long false and the media bought hooker, line and stinker.
