Can you believe that on the first day on the job Obama closes Gitmo , busts out a modern hip new website , and supports Roe v. Wade ? After all these horror stories we've seen and heard, and complete denial of reality, (See The Road to Guantanimo ) Obama steps in and slams the doors on the worst offender of torture: The U.S. Thank God. I wonder; what was Bush thinking? I wonder what he was thinking all day on Tuesday as he say almost 1.5 million people jubilantly cheering on their new president. I wonder if the protests that ushered him into office came to mind. Of course he wouldn't need to think that far back because there were protesters sending him off too .

McCain's Big acceptance speech.

McCain chooses the 'if you can't beat em join 'em' technique. Out of the blue, McCain adopted the change mantra. Is he aware of which campaign he on? What happened to Country First?

Over the course of the GOP convention I kept shaking my head at the TV and eventually turned it off. Their whole strategy is based on people not thinking, and creating chants based on emotions. Doubly odd is the fact that McCain gave one of the weakest acceptance speeches in history. This is the time that the nominee is to lay out their platform for what they are going to do for the country and get down to it. What d...

I think this is both hilarious and awesome. Check this out: (CNN) – Barack Obama's campaign for president has raised $10 million since Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin spoke Wednesday night, the campaign announced, calling it a " one-day record ." Palin, the governor of Alaska, launched harsh attacks on Obama, accusing him of being two-faced and a political lightweight with no significant legislative accomplishments. "Coverage of the Palin attacks on the news this evening just pushed us over $10 million," Obama spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in an e-mail to reporters Wednesday night. The Republican Party announced earlier in the day it had raised $1 million in the wake of Palin's speech. *** >>>That's 10 to 1 people. 10 to 1. I never thought this was possible. I know Reps must be quaking in their boots to think that this "no experience" Dem out earns them at such an alarming rate. And what is the deal with all the ...
