Someone at the McCain camp needs to fire the guy who titles these ads. “Pump?” How about “Obama and his ilk are Commie Hacks?” Guess that’s why I never get hired anywhere as the “name the ad guy.” [More]
Or so say’s Orlando Patterson, Harvard Professor who writes;
I have spent my life studying the pictures and symbols of racism and slavery, and when I saw the Clinton ad’s central image — innocent sleeping children and a mother in the middle of the night at risk of mortal danger — it brought to my mind scenes from the past. I couldn’t help but think of D. W. Griffith’s “Birth of a Nation,” the racist movie epic that helped revive the Ku Klux Klan, with its portrayal of black men lurking in the bushes around white society. The danger implicit in the phone ad — as I see it — is that the person answering the phone might be a black man, someone who could not be trusted to protect us from this threat.
Get ready folk’s. In the coming election it’s going to be all about race and/or gender. On a brighter note, I think America will tire of it and end up putting our guy McCain in office.

The real message of Tuesday’s primaries is not that Hillary Clinton won. It’s that she didn’t win by enough.
The race is over.
The results are already clear. Barack Obama will go to the Democratic Convention with a lead of between 100 and 200 elected delegates. The remaining question is: What will the superdelegates do then? But is that really a question? Will the leaders of the Democratic Party be complicit in its destruction? Will they really kindle a civil war by denying the nomination to the man who won the most elected delegates? No way. They well understand that to do so would be to throw away the party’s chances of victory and to stigmatize it among African-Americans and young people for the rest of their lives. The Democratic Party took 20 years to recover from the traumas of 1968 and it is not about to trigger a similar bloodletting this year.
John McCain’s nomination guarantees that the superdelegates wouldn’t dare. A perfectly acceptable alternative for most Democrats, McCain would harvest so large a proportion of Obama’s votes if Hillary steals the nomination that he would probably win. Even putting Obama on the ticket would not allay the anger of his supporters; it would just make him complicit in the robbery.
After Bill had spent several days campaigning for her and lost his temper
many times costing her votes and after finally escaping from her overly
controlling campaign manager for the evening, Hillary sneaked off to visit a
fortune teller of some local repute.
In a dark and hazy room, peering into a crystal ball, the mystic delivered
grave news.
‘There’s no easy way to say this, so I’ll just be blunt: Prepare yourself
to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year
just after you lose the election.’ Then the soothsayer looked up and locked
eyes with Hillary, who was visibly shaken at this news.

Rush Limbaugh took his show on the road this week, forsaking his main broadcast studio in Palm Beach, Fla., for one in Midtown Manhattan. But the change of scenery did nothing to dampen the Republican-on-Republican smackdown he has been waging from afar against Senator John McCain, the party’s likely presidential nominee, whom Mr. Limbaugh considers too moderate.
As he opened his radio program Wednesday, Mr. Limbaugh lobbed yet another grenade.

Here we go, more rounds of welfare scams in two of the most liberal places on earth, "California child care scams" and "Britain supporting children in Poland". As I mentioned in a past article here, it truly is a testament to the utter failure the socialist entitlement lifestyle is. Still don’t get it do you?

Since the Great Depression the poor have been getting a free ride. Democrats(S) celebrate the poor, glamorize the poor, care for the poor. No one, and I mean no one, cares for the poor like a bleeding heart liberal socialist(D). But that’s not really true is it?
We have the wealthiest poor in the world. Ethiopia, Darfur, N. Korea, now they have some poor! The "poor" feed off of the largesse of this country and give absolutely nothing back. Nothing. They are the ones who get all of the benefits and they are the ones who vote Democrat(S). If only they knew the wool being pulled over their eyes by the power hungry liars calling themselves Democrats(S).
Hillary’s White House Experience.
If someone doesn’t bring up her real experience in the White House, they have got to be nuts. There is more than one place where the “experience” is documented.
Here are but a few reminders of Hillary’s “experience” while first lady… As First Lady, Hillary assumed authority over Health Care Reform, a process that cost the taxpayers over $13 million. She told both Bill Bradley and Pat Moynahan, key votes needed to pass her legislation, that she would “demonize” anyone who opposed it. But it was opposed; she couldn’t even get it to a vote in a Congress controlled by her own party. And in the next election, her party lost control of both the House and Senate.
