Last night while flipping around on the tee-vee I noticed CNN had "special reports" on McCain and Obama. Each had a documentary type of show chronicling how they got to run for prez. I didn't watch since I know what both shows will say. Barrack = saint liberal out to chance the world. McCain = crazy conservative out to accumulate lots of houses. And CNN would deny that there is a bias of course.
What CNN can't really deny is the time slots though. St. Barry's profile ran in the sweet spot of prime time between 9 and 11. McCain on the other hand was between 11 and 12:30. Maybe it's just me, but I somehow doubt the same amount of people are watching between 9-11 as they are between 11 and 12:30. Then again given the spin on both candidates, maybe it's best McCain did run that late and nobody actually watched it.
And on CNN Headlines News, they spent an hour dissecting the "celebrity" reaction to Sarah Palin. No really, this was not an onion tv episode. I caught a small segment where they were talking about P. Diddy (that's Sean Puffy Combs, or Puff Daddy or Diddy for those of you confused by the new name) and his video about the matter. And this was done in a serious journalistic way. Like oh my god John, like P. Diddy like so totally dissed Sarah Palin, like could you believe it it? I guess I'm like gonna vote for Barrack cuz like you know, if like P. Diddy is like against something, I'm like you know, going to be against it too.
And yet somehow CNN is respected as a new network even to this day.
But there's no media bias out there, oh no, not at all.

One step closer
socialism: a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.
Today the US government controls Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae which together provide and distribute capital to the tune of $5.5 trillion.
Today, Russia has a flat tax of 13% while the $US now controls $5.5T of capital lending.
Ronald Reagan is spinning in his grave.

But I thought the bottom was here
More good news on the home front. Well good news for me that is, the dumbass renter throwing my money away on rent and not living the American Dream of home "ownership".
As I have been saying all along, this was never a subprime issue. It was a 'people borrowed too much money for houses they couldn't afford' issue. The subprimers were just the first to be exposed for the frauds they were. Now the MSM is finally cluing in to the overall reality:
Oh so you mean someone making $75K a year with a $825K home can't keep up with the payments once the 2 year intro rate goes away? Shocking, just shocking I tell you. Well there goes the SoCal market where millions of middle to upper middle class with good credit took out these kinds of loans. There goes Seattle too. And pretty much every other city where they thought things were different.WASHINGTON - More than 4 million American homeowners with a mortgage, a record 9 percent, were either behind on their payments or in foreclosure at the end of June, as damage from the housing crisis worsened, the Mortgage Bankers Association said Friday.
But the source of trouble in the mortgage market has shifted from subprime loans made to borrowers with poor credit to homeowners who had solid credit but took out exotic loans with ballooning monthly payments.
More than one out of 10 borrowers with a prime adjustable-rate loan is now delinquent or in foreclosure. That portion, 11.3 percent, was up from 9.7 percent in the first quarter and is expected to continue to rise as more homeowners see their monthly payments spike.
1 in 10 prime borrowers in default. That is astounding. Mind blowing really.
And what is a story like this without the sob story from the cluless and rather idiotic MSM?
One such borrower, Deanna Tamraz, 63, of Warminster, Pa. has been paying $1,700 a month — just above the minimum level — to Countrywide Financial Corp., which refinanced her loan two years ago.Really? At 63 this woman took out an adjustable mortgage? At sixty fucking three? And the bank gave this woman a $260,000 loan at sixty fucking three? Does anyone at the bank know about the life expectancy of an American woman? It's 77. Which means even is she got lucky and lived another 15 years past her expected shelf life, she still would die before the 30 years of her mortgage was up.She fears she will be unable to make payments once the balance owed rises to 15 percent more than the original $260,000 mortgage, triggering a dramatic jump in loan payments. "Like a stupid person, I trusted them," she said.
At 63 people are supposed to have the house paid off. You don't take out a quarter million dollar loan a few years before retirement. Exactly how did she think she's make the payments, from the Social Security check?
Man alive the stupidity in this country knows no bounds anymore. At least this dumbass admits to being stupid. But even so she doesn't take responsibility for her actions and blames the big bad evil lender. Sorry Deanna, you get today's award for Stupidest Person Alive.
And to everyone out there who thinks, well this is only an issue in Las Vegas or Phoenix, think again. Here are the top 10 states for foreclosures for July 2008:
1 NevadaHere is the top 10 for July 2007
2 California
3 Florida
4 Arizona
5 Ohio
6 Georgia
7 Michigan
8 Colorado
9 Utah
10 Virginia
- Nevada 1 in 199 homes
- Georgia 1 in 299 homes
- Michigan 1 in 320 homes
- California 1 in 333 homes
- Colorado 1 in 347 homes
- Ohio 1 in 376 homes
- Florida 1 in 431 homes
- Arizona 1 in 433 homes
- Massachusetts 1 in 580 homes
- Indiana 1 in 609 homes
Yep it's only Phoenix and Las Vegas that's affected. Georgia at number 2 is not surprising given the rampant amount of mortgage fraud taking place in the Atlanta area. But don't tell that to the real estate agents around here who are convinced Atlanta is different.
No media bias eh?
From Computerworld Magazine:
Here is a photo from the Republican National Convention's press boxThe Apple logo may be GOP red, but most of the Mac nation is DNC blue. That's the conclusion Charles Edge reached after consulting for hundreds for companies that use the Mac as their primary business computer.
"Most Mac guys are liberal," says Edge, director of IT at 318 Inc., one of the largest Mac consultancies in the U.S. The Mac has its roots in graphics, education and media companies. The advertising, marketing, video editing, sound, design and others who form the core of the Mac user market "are far more liberal minded than corporate finance, for example," Edge says.
What to do, what to do?
As I sit here in my rental, throwing my money away and not benefiting from the fabulous benefits of home "ownership", I bring you this piece of news to chew on...in a nutshell the housing market crash is just warming up. The person saying this is just Robert Shiller, a Yale economist with a PhD. He's just the guy who pretty much called the .com bubble perfectly and predicted the housing bubble would pop about a year before it did when everyone else was convinced a shitbox 3 bedroom home in Riverside was really worth $450,000.
I know he's not as qualified as a real estate agent or mortgage broker who took a 3 week seminar at the local community college. Still we might want to listen to what he has to say.
- Home price declines are already approaching those in the Great Depression, when they plunged 30% during the 1930s. With prices already down almost 20%, it's not a stretch to think we might exceed that drop this time around.
- There are about 10 million homeowners whose debt is higher than their home value, which has broad implications for how Americans feel about their wealth and spending habits (read: more pressure on consumer spending).
- The current hopeful consensus -- that house prices will bottom soon and then begin to recover -- is most likely a dream. Housing markets don't usually have "V-shaped" recoveries. And even if house prices stabilize in nominal terms, after adjusting for inflation, most homeowners will continue to lose money.
- Now is a great time to buy
- Owning a home is the American Dream
- Real estate never goes down
- Renting is throwing my money away
- If I don't buy now, I will be priced out forever
Hmmm, I wonder whose advice I should take. Let me sleep on it and I'll get back to you with my decision.
oopsie
After spending 3 days tearing apart Sarah Palin and her family, Obama and Biden are having a change of heart. Quel surprise! Anyone who thinks the community organizer from Jakarta had nothing to do with the smears is a complete effing moron. It was Obama and Biden that fed the story via their allies in the MSM. The MSM is simply the PR firm for the Obama-Biden. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either a fool or naive.
But now all of a sudden they are having a change of heart. The quasi-Muslim's wife was on the Ellen DeGeneress show and said - in a very Lifetime Movie kind of dramatic way - that the families are off limits. Oh really Michelle? How nice of you to voice this opinion a week after Palin's daughter was dragged through the mud. Where was your concern say sometime on Monday afternoon? Too busy buying $600 earring with her rebate check I suppose.
And not to be outdone, Joe Biden - whose own daughter was arrested in 2002, but the MSM said nothing of course - echoed Michelle's thoughts and said the MSM has been unfair to Palin. Awww, how nice of you Joe. You watch someone get beaten up for a week and then tell the guy doing the beating, hey that's not very nice you know, you should probably stop doing that. Maybe Sarah will get you a gift certificate to the Hair Club For Men as a token of her appreciation.
Of course the reason Biden, the quasi-Muslim from Jakarta and his wife are so concerned all of a sudden is the backlash against the media is in full force. People of all political stripes hate bullies. The Barrack led MSM assault on Palin and her family was the equivalent of the 6th grader stealing the 3rd grader's lunch money, pushing him down and kicking mud in his face. Only this time, the 3rd grader did what every 3rd grader in that situation dreams of. She walked up to the bully, kicked him in the nuts and did it with a smile. And she did this while all the other kids were watching and cheering her on. And now the bully is saying, yeah well you can have your lunch money back, I'm not really that hungry anyways, oh and your mom's ugly too.
But not to learn a lesson, the MSM is doubling down on the attempts to destroy her. I hear there are new shocking revelations about her such as:
- she once went fishing without a fishing licence and got a ticket so she's a hypocrite because she says she's for law and order
- as mayor of Wasilla, she accepted federal money and so she's a hypocrite because she says she wants to cut govt spending
- she didn't graduate from the same college where she started
- her husband likes to take long hunting trips and so he schedules his work to allow for that to happen, so she's lying when she says he's a blue collar guy because blue collar guys don't take long trips
No seriously, these are the new supposed shocking allegations about her coming from the Obama-Biden camp. OK not officially from Obama-Biden but from their spokespeople in the MSM who have a day job called "journalist". And these are shocking indeed to middle America. Since everyone who has ever cast a line in a river made sure to buy a fishing license and will be appalled when hearing that she didn't. And since cities like Atlanta, New York and San Francisco get $0 from the feral government, I suppose people will be outraged. I didn't even know you needed a fishing licence until very recently. And the idea of requiring a license to catch a fish still seems insane to me and just another example of government regulation run amok.....but I digress.
If I do recall the quasi-Muslim from Jakarta went to 2 colleges and oh about 12 schools, including a Muslim school with daily Koran studies while living in Jakarta. That doesn't concern the MSM, but the fact that Palin transfered from college to college, well shit, that's an impeachable offense. And union member in the UAW ever takes trips. No siree. They all work 52 weeks a year on the assembly line.
For supposedly smart people, the MSM sure is acting stupid on this issue. I just hope they keep it up because the backlash will only get bigger and bigger against these foul human beings who make up the country's news media.
Like, who's that old dude on TV
The McCain speech was pretty bad. I take that back. It was awful.
It was all over the place, disjointed and just stiff. Compared to Palin's speech, it was cringing to watch. I watched it on CNN and true to form, they went out of the way to find people yawning. I'm sure they tried to find yawners on Wednesday as well, although I doubt anyone in the country was yawning then. It was kind of funny as the MSM was trying its hardest to put a positive spin on the analysis afterwards. Gotta love the MSM. They spend 3 days tearing apart a 17 year old girl for nothing, but then use kid gloves on McCain's speech. And the NY Times wonders why it's losing readers and revenue quarter after quarter.
The whole theme of service doesn't do it for me either. I don't want or need someone to fight for me. I can fend for myself. Just like I don't need Barry Hussein's government handouts, I don't need or want McCain's fighting on my behalf. Just lower my damn taxes, let me own a gun, build a border fence and don't be PC when it comes to exterminating Muslim jihadists. That's all I ask.
I kept thinking to myself if I am an undecided voter and I'm mentally comparing this speech to the Barry Hussein speech I'm thinking, no way am I voting for this old boring guy who's mumbling something about World War 2 and Vietnam which was what like 75 years ago or something?
And come on, anyone who by now doesn't know who they're voting for is not going to be swayed by issues or logic. He or she is not going to think hmmm a doubling of the capital gains tax by the Community Organizer raised on the streets of Jakarta will hurt the economy. If you even knew what the capital gains tax was you'd have made your choice sometime in February. At least an Obama voter is uninformed, but at least he has a passion for it and does not need to be bribed. The undecided voter is worse than that since not only is he clueless about the world like the Obama voter, but his vote is essentially for sale to the highest bidder or the ones with the flashiest convention speech, even if that speech says nothing.
The undecideds out there will decide based on style over substance. Hussein has the style, McCain doesn't. The hope now I suppose for McCain is that he get Palin out there 24/7 and present her as the face of the ticket.
It will be interesting if nothing else.

Speeches
In 2004 Barry Hussein Obama was an unknown Chicago community organizer / Illinois state Senator. He gave a speech at the DNC and overnight the MSM went into an orgasmic state of mind with speculation about his presidency. One speech, that's all. One speech and a quasi-Muslim raised on the streets of Jakarta who admitted to using cocaine was suddenly next JFK.
However I predict the chattering classes - the Toms, the Keiths, the Campbells. the Andersons, will quickly pooh-pooh last night's speech as being nothing more than a speech and not to read too much into it.
The talking heads immediately mentioned the speech wasn't actually written by her but for her. Uhm yeah, just like 99.9% of political speeches. That's why the job of "speech writer" exists. Does the MSM really think Hussein Obama writes his own speeches? Maybe the do. They are so in the bag for him, who knows what they think anymore. The entire MSM lives on Planet Barrack where he can do no wrong.

WOW
How do I know that Palin kicked some serious ass tonight? Easy. Look at the face of Anderson Cooper and Wolfie Blitzer and the skankiest woman on TV, Campbell Brown. They were stunned. I can see the discussion in the studio after the show is over:
Wolfie: How could this trailer trash, womAn from Nebraska speak like that?
Campbell: I mean come on, not only did she not attend Yale, she didn't even attend a Seven Sisters school? WTF?!
Anderson: Uhm actually I think she's from Alaska Wolf.
Wolfie: Nebraska, Alaska, Idaho, who the fuck cares, it's all the same inbred, gun toting, religious fanatics. It's not NY and that's what counts.
Campbell: And to think she has FIVE kids. Talk about a selfish bitch, using up all those resources.
Anderson: Yeah and keeping that last one when she could have easily killed it. What a wacko.
Wolfie: We better get the Obama team on conference ASAP and see what we do now, what the next line of attack will be. I hear the Examiner is coming out with a story that she's 1/2 mermaid and we have to jump on that. Oh and also call Keith over at MSNBC and see what he has.
Campbell: That fucking bitch is going down. Nobody makes a fool out of Campbell Brown. Nobody.
How else do I know this was one hell of a speech? Because everyone will be talking about Sarah's speech and not saying a word about Rudy's speech which was itself fantastic. Sorry Keith. Sorry Tom. Sorry Wolf. Sorry Anderson. Your quasi-Muslim from Jakarta's coronation process just hit a big speed bump.
babies
The womYn of New York, Boston, San Francisco and DC hate Palin. They hate everything about her. And they will not vote for her. Well OK, so Obama will win NY by 38% now instead of winning by 35% had McCain picked someone else. And he will win San Francisco 80-20 instead of 70-30 had he picked a less conservative womAn.
However the race this year will once again be decided in Ohio and Michigan and Nevada and Colorado and Florida. The states where if you recall Barry Hussein Obama didn't do all that well. States where he did quite piss-poorly with - how can I say this in a PC way - older chicks. I'm no political expert or nuthin, but I have a feeling the suburban and rural womEn of those states might see things a little differently.
If the choice comes down to a bastard, quasi-Muslim raised and educated on the streets of Indonesia vs. an all-American, married for 20 years, church going MILF with 5 kids, one of whom is a sick baby....well shit, you do the math on which candidate comes across more favorably with the Dayton or Denver or Las Vegas soccer mom set.
And yes I know that Palin is anti-abortion. But so what? The MSM assumes that she is the only womAn who is. There are millions of womEn that are anti-abortion. Again these are womEn, not to be confused with the NY/DC/SF womYn who think killing a baby, whether born or unborn is in the constitution right after where it says guns can only be carried by the military. These womYn represent the typical womAn about as well as John Kerry represents people named John. It is a media made fantasy that somehow everyone lacking a male organ automatically supports Roe v. Wade. Below is from a Gallup poll taken this year on the topic.
Even 35% of Democrats are opposed to abortion. And if you take out the lunatic fringe of San Francisco, New York, Boston and DC...ie the rabid Obama voter...I'd be willing to guess that number goes up to 40%. Not exactly the overwhelmingly pro-abortion party the MSM would have you believe. And look at the geographic section. Remember Ohio, Michigan and Florida? Midwest and South where the issue is pretty much even. Nevada and Colorado are "west" I suppose but I have a feeling California/Oregon/Washington has a lot to do with that 59% pro-abortion and I have a feeling that Nevada and Colorado are closer to the midwest numbers when removed from the "west" designation.
And finally those 55+ women. The same 55+ women that swooned over Hillary and rejected the scam artist from Jakarta en masse. The same women that we are told over and over by the MSM that there is no way in hell they would vote for Palin because she is not in favor of killing babies. I beg to differ.
What Media bias?
Here is the Clinton News Network's unbiased coverage of the RNC in full swing.
They keep the comments section open for about 20 minutes. Enough time for 8 vitriolic leftist comments to be posted, most likely by the same person. And then the comments section is closed.
But CNN allows equal time to all voices.
Uhuh.

Bipartisanship....shove it
John McCain's new BFF Joe Lieberman is talking a lot about bipartisanship. Oooohh la la, bipartisanship. Bleh. Thanks but no thanks.
Liberals like McCain and Lieberman love bipartisanship. The MSM loves it too. And why not? Bipartisanship means conservatives give up 90% of their demands while liberals get 90% of their demands all in the name of "getting things done". As Lieberman listed, bipartisanship agreements have led to almost amnesty, McCain-Feingold and global warming nonsense bills that will cost us trillions of dollars. Gee wiz, how wonderful. Future bipartisanship deals will in the near future include removing the social security cap and ending raising taxes on "the rich", ie anyone making $50K or more. Whenever I hear the word bipartisanship my bank account suffers.
I like Republicans and Democrats fighting. I like the fact that they can't stand each other. I like the red/blue divide. With two polarized sides, nothing much gets done in DC. And the less that happens in DC the better. The less Republicans and Democrats get along the less damage they can do. Why mess up such a well designed system by getting along?
So thanks Joe for the offer to end the fighting, but I'm not interested.
Next time don't be such an asshole
Prius? No thanks
Just as I had suspected, people have come to their sense with regards to the cars/trucks they drive. The hysteria of $4 gas has subsided despite the MSM's best attempts to continue the farce. I almost fell for it myself, briefly considering the idea of buying a a teenie tiny car to save a couple of dollars in gas. Luckily I didn't take the bait. And from early reports it seems more and more people are having second thoughts as well.
Consider:
Bloomberg reports, "General Motors Corp.'s U.S. dealers are reporting that a decline in pickup-truck sales may be 'bottoming out' and that some demand is returning for large sport-utility vehicles." While demand for the vehicles is not close to matching demand for fuel-efficient small cars, GM Vice Chairman Bob Lutz told Bloomberg that dealers have begun to report "some resurgence in demand for full-size SUVs and pickups."or
While single people living in cramped apartments may not mind driving a cramped car, families with kids and/or dogs will. I have a fairly big SUV and going somewhere with 2 dogs, suitcases and other trip stuff fills it up pretty nicely. Add in a kid or two and the thing will be jam packed. There is simply no way that a Prius or Civic could work for me, $4 gas or no $4 gas. Given the fact that most "reporters" live in NY or DC, they just don't get it - like most things. You can preach the wonders of a Prius and taking the bus all you want. That is simply not a feasible option for millions and millions of people who need space to transport people and things from point A to point B."Consumers' single-minded focus on small vehicles," which peaked in June and July after gasoline reached $4 a gallon, "is subsiding as gasoline prices drop," the automotive consumer Web site Edmunds.com reported.
Edmunds' data, which tracks consumer interest in each vehicle segment, shows that "even interest in the popular hybrid segment is down 34 percent compared to June as gas prices have declined," the company said.
The average price of gas in Nashville stood at $3.63 a gallon on Wednesday, down from the $4 level in mid July.
"There's been a rush to small cars, but that doesn't necessarily mean the shift is permanent," said Edmunds CEO Jeremy Anwyl. "With the initial shock of high gas prices fading, consumers are returning to rationality and again viewing gas consumption as just one of many factors when considering their next vehicle.
And even the savings aren't all that much. The difference between a 15 MPG SUV and a 25 MPG sedan, driven 15,000 miles a year at $4 gas is $1600 a year. Is saving $1600 a year really worth the inconvenience of driving a small, unsafe car? To me it isn't. And increasingly it appears it's not worth it to more and more people.
And the best part of it all? Once again the clueless Democratic press corp - AKA the MSM - has egg on its face with stories like these:
Washington Post - Death to the SUV?
ABC News - Has the death of the SUV arrived?
Democratic Underground - Death of the SUV
Sorry liberals. Your dream of a Prius driving nation will have to be put on hold just a little longer. The SUV was in the hospital for some surgery but it is far from dead. Try again next year.
Joke of the Day
The Hussein Obama camp has been touting a laughable tax cut for 95% of people. This is an outright lie. I don't mean that because it will only apply to 93%. I mean because that notion of a tax cut for anyone coming from the most liberal Senator is a lie.
The lie is exposed very succinctly here.
Americans however being the gullible fools they are will believe this lie. Oh gee Sally, I hear that lovely Barrack fellow is going to cut our taxes, while that mean old McCain will only be cutting taxes for the E-V-I-L R-I-C-H people.
Too bad that moron Sally doesn't realize she doesn't pay taxes to begin with. A married couple with kids making under $75K pays virtually no taxes today. Under $125K that couple pays $10K in taxes, again virtually nothing. It's only when you get above that level where the taxes start kicking in. Not because the marginal rates go up, but because all the deductions start phasing out. So no more child deduction. No student loan deduction. No IRA deduction. All those tax avoidance schemes go away around the $110K to $125K income level. What Hussein Obama will do is get rid of those deductions much earlier, in some cases get rid of them for everyone. He will do that while at the same time lowering marginal rates but by a lesser net amount. And he will raise the capital gains tax on top of it all which will affect everyone at all income levels either directly or indirectly via pension funds, 401k accounts, IRAs, etc. It is the equivalent of putting $2 in your front pocket and taking away $3 from your back pocket. I wouldn't expect anything else from someone who was raised on the streets of Jakarta.
But since most Americans don't even know what a marginal tax rate is, they'll never know the difference. Some Americans (God I hope not most) think that if they get an IRS tax refund check, it means they don't pay taxes. Yes, there are people that economically illiterate around, and a lot of them too. It is with this level of stupidity among the American public that a man like Hussein Obama can get elected. And when Sally's tax increases by 50% she won't even notice it because she'll get a tax refund check at the end of the year and think all is super duper fine.
RIP AMERICA
1776-2009
Sarah
My initial reaction was cool. A conservative woman who wants to drill for oil, is a gun nut (in the eyes of Barry Hussein Obama anyone who has even once thought of owning a gun is a nut) like me. And all the rest of the conservative views she holds. Her abortion stance is a little troubling for me, but oh well you can't have it all. I can't stand her accent though. Is she from Alaska or Milwaukee? Eeegads man.
As far as her kid being pregnant, you've got to be kidding me. Barry Hussein's mother was 18 when she had him. Then not content with that, she married and ditched Barry's daddy, a year later, deciding instead to move 1/2 around the world with little Barry to shack up with a nice young Muslim man in Indonesia. After a few years she got bored of being a mama and sent little Barry away to Hawaii. All that and yet somehow Barry Hussein Obama is the poser child for family values in the Democratic Party press corp, I mean the MSM. The same MSM that is having a hissy fit that Palin's daughter got knocked up.
It's funny how Barry Hussein Obama complains about personal attack ads then goes on the offensive against a 17 year old daughter of the VP candidate. During the nastiest things Bill and Hillary did, nobody touched Chelsea. Even the Bush twins were and are for the most part left alone and they're adults. This is just hitting so far below the belt it's disgraceful. Barry Hussein Obama should be ashamed of himself. Politics is down and dirty but it's almost like the mafia rule of leaving family out of it. The fact Barry Hussein has crossed that line, shows what kind of preident he will be. It is downright fucking scary.
My prediction is this whole baby-gate will come back and bite Barry Hussein in the ass. The womYn hate Palin and would have hated her no matter what. However soccer moms will see Palin as the working mom who has a teenage daughter that's out of control. Demonizing Palin like that is not going to help Hussein with the soccer mom vote, but may very well upset a lot of them. And I think Hussein knows this which is why he came out yesterday with that bullshit press conference saying he wants his bloggers to stop talking about it. Sorry Barry, a little too late.
If I were writing Palin's speech for this week I would come out swinging about this. Talk about how it is offensive for Hussein's henchmen to attack her family, blah blah. This could be a potential "You're no Jack Kennedy" moment if handled properly.
Oh dear
Since I am on the moneyed class - according to Barry Obama anyway - I spent and extra long weekend with my fellow upper class, minority hating chums on a private beach with no access for the riff-raff (if you know what I mean, nod nod, wink wink). Actually I spent the weekend in a rented house a block from the beach in S. Carolina in a very middle class setting.
What I said about the private beach does apply in places like Malibu, the home of Barbara Streisand, Steven Spielberg and countless other uber liberals who care about the little guy. All along Malibu there are actual gated beaches where you need a key to get to the beach. I know first hand since I tried getting on to one with no luck from the enlightened locals. This in a state where the entire coastline is supposed to be open to the public. They vote for Barry Hussein Obama because he's black, but aside from the maid cleaning the 12,000 sq ft palace, there's not a black (or hispanic) face to be seen for miles around. Example 199,721 of the liberal hypocrisy in this country that goes untold.
And speaking of beaches, talk about a letdown with regards to Gustav. Oh man how the media was hoping, waiting and praying for Katrina II. And during the week fo the Republican Convention, oh mama, how sweet that would have been. Not only does George Bush hate black people, but John McCain hates 'em too. That is if he even knows what a hurricane is, you know with him being so O-L-D and everything.
But after 4 days of waiting and waiting and showing maps and satellite images and predictions and experts and analysts, the big day came and......a little rain. Not one levy broke. Not one defenseless old black woman was stranded on her roof top as evil Republicans sipped 40 year old whiskey in St. Paul. Not a single, single mother with 8 kids was left stranded in the mean streets of Nawleans while B-I-G O-I-L executives kicked it old school with evil white Republicans at an exclusive country club in Minneapolis. None of that happened. Instead a non-white Republican governor (Bobby Jindal of Louisiana who was absent from the tee-vee as far as I could tell) did a hell of a job getting people out of the city in time with amazing efficiency. But that kind of news is boring and even worse does nothing to advance the "Republicans are evil white men looking to kill innocent black people via flooding" narrative that the MSM has so neatly created.

The Master
It's a good thing I'm not one of them "independent voters" (aka people who know nothing about nothing and have the intellectual ability of a gnat) watching Bill Clinton's speech. The man can talk and I could see how "independent voters" would be swayed by his oh so cool and smooth ways. The guy is a master at giving a speech and connecting with an audience. I personally think his real calling is the timeshare business. That guy could give a presentation on the benefits of owning a 2 bed 2 bath at the Boca Raton Palm Delight Beach Resort and checkbooks would be whipping out after he was done.
Now of course the questions everyone is asking was he sincere? Was she? Given the past history of the Clintons, all signs point to HELL NO. But who knows? Maybe they've realized that the Clinton days are over. He can spend the next 20 years on the $250,000 a speech circuit, kicking it old school with the powers that be in the American socialist movement. She can spend the next 20 years in the Senate and become the new Ted Kennedy and legislating that movement. Not a bad way to earn a living.
I've been listening to and reading the Republican punditry and they're in a fantasy world if they think the Democrats won't unite behind Barry Hussein Obama. As much as the Clintonistas feel dissed (and come on, a 60 year old woman should not be feeling "dissed", this isn't a high school love triangle here) there's no way in hell they will support McCain. The Hillary womYn voters are rabid feminists looking for gYrl Pwr and who think an abortion at 15 months is perfectly reasonable. How in the world can anyone reasonably think these womYn will vote for McCain? I mean come on people, come back to terra firma please. They are having a tissy fit because their gYrl didn't win. They are reverting back to when they were 12 years old and throwing a tantrum, maybe even holding their breath until they turn blue. But in the end these womYn will be voting for Barry.

I'm sorry!
After watching Hillary's speech last night, I realize that I owe everyone an apology. So here it is.
I'm sorry. Really, really, really sorry.
As a white, heterosexual male, not on welfare and not in need of government assistance for every day living, I now realize I am the scum of the earth. I sincerely and deeply apologize. For everything and everything from time immemorium. Thanks to Hillary's great vision of change and hope, I now realize that the true champions of the world are those that contribute the less as well as those that best play the victim game. So to all my non white, non-heterosexual, non-productive members of society with their extended firmly out waiting for the government dole to arrive, I salute you. And to all you white, heterosexual males out there getting your asses out of bed at 6:00 so you can go work all day long in order to pay 50% of your income to the government...go to hell you racist, sexist, ageist, homophobic, non-earth loving, SUV driving, gun owning assholes!
And I encourage each and every one of you to proudly take Mrs. Clinton's advice and vote for more. Vote for more race based employment practices. Vote for more welfare. Vote for more "gay" rights. Equal pay for women? Fuck that. I say a woman needs to be paid 150% of what a man makes. "Free" health care? Not on my watch you don't. Not only should you get 100% of your health coverage paid for, but if you are a non-white, non-heterosexual, non-productive member of society, you get money in your pocket each time you visit the doctor. Sound crazy? It's not any different than the tax rebate checks for those who pay no taxes.
And most of all if you are a single woman without health insurance, you should be encouraged to adopt as many children as you can. Why stop at 2 as the woman in Hillary's speech last night? I say every single mother should adopt a minimum of 5 children. After all what better environment for a child to grow up in than with a single mother living in squalor? In Hillary-Obama-Hope for Change-and-Change-for-hope world it makes sense. Those 5 kids will be Democrat voters for the rest of their lives as they get taught from early on that the only way to survive is via a government handout.
HOPE AND CHANGE, WAR IS PEACE, CHANGE AND HOPE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
