We now find out that the Republican party cut ads, and sent them to TV stations around the country, opposing the bailout bill even BEFORE Pelosi spoke before the vote.

Sometimes I honestly wonder which is better/worse:

-A candidate who trusts the judgment of the American people and tries to focus on important issues.

-A candidate who correctly surmises that most people are idiots, and treats them accordingly.

The Young Turks talk about McCain’s thoughts on community organizing.

“They seem to think that it’s ok to equate her job that she had two years ago with a job Barrack Obama had when he was 22. “

How racism works

What if John McCain were a former president of the Harvard Law Review? What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class? What if McCain were still married to the first woman he said “I do” to? What if Obama were the candidate who left his first wife after she no longer measured up to his standards?

What if Michelle Obama were a wife who not only became addicted to pain killers, but acquired them illegally through her charitable organization? What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard? What if Obama were a member of the “Keating 5″? What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker?

If these questions reflected reality, do you really believe the election numbers would be as close as they are?

This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative qualities in another when there is a color difference.

The Onion never lets me down.

“I guess I imagined it being like in the movies: drinking champagne, hot-tubbing with honeys, and cruising in customized Escalades while watching the cash roll in. But here I am, freezing my ass off. I’ve got to say, these drug-dealing scumbags really earn their pay.”

Rick Davis, campaign manager for Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., just told Fox News Channel’s Chris Wallace that McCain running mate Gov. Sarah Palin won’t subject herself to any tough questions from reporters “until the point in time when she’ll be treated with respect and deference.”

Well, well, well, if this isn’t the pot calling the kettle black:

“She (Clinton) does herself a disservice to even mention it really. You’ve got to plow through that. You’ve got to know what you’re getting into….any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism…I think, man, that doesn’t do us any good, women in politics, women in general, wanting to progress this country.”

I often run into people who “aren’t really interested in politics” and makes me want scream ^$&#*&^& it!

Less people care about politics, the more we get screwed. Check out this video clip from CNN.

It’s funny because it’s true…..

Jon Stewart is great at calling out the media on their journalistic responsibilities, but when they fail, no worries! We can always count on him to dissect what it all means.
