How bold? She released a report tonight clearing herself in the Troopergate investigation.
No, seriously.
No. Seriously.

Now, that takes some stones, my friends. John McCain definitely cannot hang with that.
I think McCain is yesterday's weasel who's found today's red meat. Wouldn't want to be in Barney's or Dodd's or BHO's shoes the next three weeks......
He is just reinforcing the RW email smears that have been going around for the past two years. My RW former Marine neighbor has been sending me this stuff, and I always send it back corrected, or with a snopes link. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MUCH YOU DEBUNK THIS STUFF. They believe it anyway.
I ask this guy how he can belive these lies, and he says "but what if I'm right? (that Obama is a terrorist, etc)
What the hell can you say to these people if they are going to believe fake emails instead of the facts? These are the people McCain is connecting to, and Palin. Their own bigotry (whether for 'liberals' or people of color) prohibit them from understanding the facts.
McCain is smart enough to reinforce this cognitive dissonance.
This post is for you BUSBOY, because I know you are on 'the list'-the same RW smear email list I am on. It sickens me, but you believe that crap. Sucker.
What do you think of the "ACORN" investigations. One guy registered 72 times under different names? true or false?
And I had Wachovia (A bank that Jim Cramer was touting as safe a few months ago because it payed a dividend) among others.
Sometimes the 'reality based liberal media' can save your ass. Thank you Bill Moyers.
tell him to suck it up for BUSH and McCAIN, pal!!
McCain is a bully (and a cowardly one at that). He has other people do his dirty work (his wife and Palin, lately) but can't do it face to face himself.
Note: He will be forced to do it in the third debate, but the fact that he must know Obama is ready for it, and he can't know what Obama is going to say in response (and therefore can't have a completely appropriate canned zinger) must be eating away at him.
Will be interesting to see. I think Obama will have an objective, yet appropriately witty response to anything McCain flings at him. Nothing enrages a cowardly bully more than calm, unassailable confidence in response.
Interesting how you think Obama can engineer such a debacle when you also believe he has not had enough experience to be president. I recall your previous posts about that. What's up? You can't have it both ways
"we are prisoners of this gigantic debt debacle engineered by Phil Gramm, McCain and the GOP Congress, signed into law by Clinton in 1999."
Mortgage securitization and breaking down the firewalls between banking and securities brokers put in place after the LAST Great Depression. Did they think they were somehow smarter than the old guys?
What the hell was 'conservative' about that? And where is Mr. Gramm? Dont we need his expert economic advise to solve the world wide banking crisis he caused?
What the hell did they expect?
Will be interesting to see if he goes nuts during the next debate.
O: Senator McCain, do you have something to say to my face?
M: Ehhhh?
O: Senator did you just blink?
M: (Blink Blink Wink Wink) gee golly ehhhh I could say anything when I was a POW
The Republican ticket is working hard this week to make Barack Obama's tenuous connection to graying, '60s revolutionary Bill Ayers a major campaign issue. But the Palins' connection to anti-American extremism is much more central to their political biographies.
Imagine the uproar if Michelle Obama was revealed to have joined a black nationalist party whose founder preached armed secession from the United States and who enlisted the government of Iran in his cause? The Obama campaign would probably not have survived such an explosive revelation. Particularly if Barack Obama himself was videotaped giving the anti-American secessionists his wholehearted support just months ago.
Where's the outrage, Sarah Palin has been asking this week, in her attacks on Obama's fuzzy ties to Ayers? The question is more appropriate when applied to her own disturbing associations.

Obama's a basketball freak and you can tell he views campaigning as a sport similar to hoops.
He's just so subtle that most people don't realize it.
OT but, Nikkei down 10%+ whooooooo, just like last night...
from mike malloy's show: 300 years of chattel slavery followed by 300 years of wage slavery and it's time for a real change:

Obama wants him to bring it up; he is daring McCain to bring it up. It will be interesting to see how this game of Chicken will play out.
So IF he had it as bad as the others, he was tortured, but after I mean, and if he did say "if they can't leave I won't" then that to me does qualify.
But americans have really forgotten what hero means. It does mean conscious choice (and precludes...though often in reality not, being "out of your mind" at the time. Like a person that reacts...no choice, just react) of putting yourself in danger for a higher cause.
Vietnam...another bad war. There was no higher cause there-.
None of that matters. People can be physically brave, and emotional cowards. I have no way of knowing, but I think he actually physically hates Obama, and I think he has a hair trigger and knows it and I think he avoids looking at him because he is afraid of losing control. I think he avoids confrontation, because he knows he could lose it.
He is a man out of balance. Completely. He's stunted emotionally, and that is not a safe person to be in that position of power. He bullies, we've all seen it even in interviews where it behoves him not to. He snaps, like a little chihuahua, hoping it fends off things he doesn't like. He's not strong. He's a complete phony (maybe Obama is too, I doubt it, but if so I'd rather have a phony that can make me think he is sincere)...that "my friends" bullshit really gets me...he seems absolutely childlike (in all the worst ways, and none of the openness or other good things cnildren can be) petulant, constantly sounding like a kid in the back seat saying "but OBAMA started it!!".
He also gets away with tooting his own horn to a degree that is pathetic.
"I'm not the kind of guy to phone it in" what a belligerent piece of work.
I am beginning to think he is really mentally unbalanced from his actions.
Anyone catch the "my fellow prisoners..." in his speech on the 8th? IF you see it, watch Palin and the other woman behind him, as their grins freeze on their faces thinking "did that jackass just say fellow prisoners instead of americans?"
If Mc Cain wins, we are in for even worse...
John McCain is a pussy.
