Obama Noose Poster New Low In Citizen Propaganda [The Internet]
Those people making Barack Obama monkeys and booing John McCain for saying Obama is a person "you do not have to be scared of?" Some of them have blogs! Which means they are free to put all sorts of terrible things on the Web, like the virtual poster at left, the one with Obama, a noose, and the headline, "Asphyxiation/The Fucking Solution." The gent who made that lovely thing, and posted it to his website Sunday night, said he did so in retaliation for comparably nasty images of Sarah Palin (also at left),

McCain to Rectify Letterman Rejection
In what was a costly PR error in someone’s strategy judgment John McCain ditched the David Letterman show last minute a few weeks ago claiming that he was on his way to sort out the country’s financial crisis.  This advice had to have come from a rookie strategist because anyone with any sense would know the outcome given that David Letterman is a very sharp comedian who isn’t that fond of the Republican party, especially its current President, as it is.  Surely someone in the McCain camp has been w

Weekend in Review: Another Stimulus, McCain's Tone, the 'Lauder Clause'
Esteemed Congressman and civil rights activist John Lewis released a statement warning John McCain about permitting an "atmosphere of hate." McCain recently spoke publicly about how much he admires Lewis. Washington Post columnist Khaled Hosseini and pollster John Zogby are both critical of how McCain has responded to supporters who bring up Obama, Arabs or Muslims. The chairman of the Virginia State Republican Party compared Obama to Osama bin Laden. McCain had to disown another stateme

YOUNG JEEZY GETTING POLITICAL…AGAIN…
There’s less than a month until Election Day, and Young Jeezy is still putting the word out for everyone to get to the polls this year. The Snowman is leaning heavily toward the Democratic side, especially since Republican presidential nominee John McCain chose Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate. “I like Joe [Biden] a little bit better than Sarah,” Jeezy said recently. “I understand she’s the soccer mom and all that, and that’s good. But if something happens

John McCain’s Awesome Do-Over Speech
Walnuts is re-launching his campaign for the millionth time, hurrah! Today he unveils a new speech, full of humor and zest and “my friends” and transparent falsehoods like, “we’ve got them just where we want them,” because yes, six months ago if you had asked John McCain where he wanted to be 21 days from the election, he would have said, “Down 10 points nationally and fighting to keep Virginia and North Carolina in the red column.” A tantalizing sample of John McC

McCain set to appear on 'Letterman'
NEW YORK, Oct. 13 (UPI) -- U.S. Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain is set to appear on "Late Show with David Letterman," CBS said Sunday.

BREAKING: SARAH PALIN TO STOP LYING WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER, MAYBE
So here’s the thing: we have the Branchflower report.  The whole world has the Branchflower report.  The findings are spelled out as clear as can be.   How then does Gov. Palin think she can get away with telling straight up lies about what the report actually says?  ABC News: “Palin Makes Troopergate Assertions that Are Flatly False.” At one point this weekend Palin said: “Well, I’m very very pleased to be cleared of any legal wrongdoing,” Palin said, R

John McCain Reschedules His Appearance on 'Late Show with David Letterman'
After his sudden September 24 cancellation, Senator John McCain will appear on Letterman's 'Late Show' on Thursday, October 16.

Arts, Briefly: McCain Reschedules With Letterman
Senator John McCain has agreed to appear on David Letterman’s “Late Show” on CBS, according to the show’s Web site.

McCain’s Tour of Contrition
As John McCain trails Obama in the polls, he’s crawling back to David Letterman to apologize for standing him up to go save the world do an interview with Katie Couric. As you’ll recall, Letterman tore him a new asshole on national television for that little stunt. McCain is scheduled to appear on the program on Thursday. Should be interesting.

I don’t usually chat about politics
But this video really got under my skin. I have not talked about my particular vote in this election or who I believe or don’t believe. I post little random tidbits because quite frankly I feel everyone should be allowed to vote for who they think would do the best job possible. But then I see a video like this and it really disturbs me. No wonder our Country can not move forward because a lot of people are still living in the past. I feel very strongly that if we don’t learn from the past

Obama, flush with cash, buys up primetime network TV
Well it looks like Barack Obama can have the stage all to himself after all — and he doesn’t need John McCain to suspend his campaign to do it. The Democratic nominee for President is going the route of Matthew Lesko, Miss Cleo and Richard Simmons. He’s doing an infomercial. Prime time The Obama campaign is buying up the equivalent of waterfront property on the airwaves, purchasing 30-minute blocks of prime time on CBS and NBC. Expensive? Very. Although campaigns receive discounte

McCain Reschedules Letterman; Obama Receives Network Bargain
So let's see if David Letterman will ease up on John McCain now that the Republican presidential candidate is slated to appear Thursday on The Late Show. I think Dave and his writers are right now making plans to further ridicule the guy. Dave's been merciless ever since McCain angered Letterman by cancelling at the last minute September 24th over the economic crisis, claiming that he was heading to Washington DC that second, and then sitting for a NYC interview with Katie Couric instead. (See David Letterm

Letterman/McCain Smackdown is ON, Definitely Maybe
Riff is going to the dance to make nice with Bernardo, so this Thursday America will be able to witness the ultimate mambo as John McCain makes his long-awaited appearance (probably) on The Late Show with David Letterman. Unless he backs out again, of course. The question is: Will Letterman take the Bill O'Reilly route and go all soft and sweet once he has his opponent in the chair? Or will he continue to berate McCain and hope the audience he's already lost during the debacle is less than the n
