Good morning AmBloggers around the world. The Pennsylvania runup was a frantic spinathon, Pennsylvania afterwards was duller than a morning TV show. I'm afraid we've got the seeds of hard core voter apathy on the back burner. What'm I hearing? Here's what I'm hearing: "Seen any good movies lately?" It's all over, guys. Nobody cares no more, no more. TRUTH!

. BACKSTORY:
Nobody reads newspapers or magazines any more. Nobody watches TV news. 20% get all their info from Limbo, 20% from the Daily Show; the rest right here on the Internets. It doesn't matter what any wonkonoids blather for their kibble & bits: Everybody is going to vote for Obama in November. Get used to it, out-of-it mediacracy. It's called smelly old REALITY. .

But.....but....we need to count the people who didn't vote who would have voted for Hillary if they had decided to vote. . .

I get to see my 17 grandson today; I talked to him about voting for Obama (he's 18 in Sept.) and he says, I'll vote for whoever you say (what trust!).. And my granddaughter called yesterday and told me she is having a son...my great-grandson!
Life DOES go on. I just want to make sure Obama is elected so my future generations will have a life.

More good news from NC: Obama has raised 3 times what Clinton did in March...over $600K to her $200K.
He will take this state easily; the Clintons are loathed here.

Obama will win the nomination and the election.
Will some bigoted rubes not vote for Obama because of his former pastor?
Sure.
Would those same bigoted rubes vote for Hillary if she got the nomination?
Not on your life.

Clinton was in Jax, NC, home of Camp LeJeune Marine base, and will hit Ft. Bragg also, to show off her military bona fides [snark].
Trouble is, those folks are from all parts of the country and vote in other states, but I guess she's pandering to the people who make their living from the military. Douchebag.

A friend of mine in Malaysia ( on vacation ) said, "So, how's the Prisoner's Delimma going in Pennsylvania?" .. that pretty much sums it up.... Two people trying to get through the primaries, and if neither one turns to dirty politics, then they both win. It seems that Hillary was the first to crack and turned fink on her partner. She took the low road, and Obama stayed positive and on the Change message.

Some caller on CSPAN absolutely giving them pure hell about concentrating on Rev. Wright and not exposing Hagee for his racist, reactionary views.

But Peggy Noonan says Barak is not patriotic because she doesn't think he tears up when he thinks about the Wright Brothers, or some such hooey. John McCain however, knows this history in his bones and Hillary learned it in AK in the 70s.
Just how f-ing crazy is she?

It looks like the media is buying Hillary's pathetic claim that she is winning. It shows that they are dumb enough to believe her fuzzy math. Are we Americans so dumb, that we believe a political campaign, when they are delusional in thinking they are winning? No wonder people believed Bush and Karl Rove, and voted for them twice.

Hate to break it to Peggy, but you need a lower middle class to have Reagan Democrats, and they're disappearing.

Bush Bites, 4050 Americans Hillary Clinton sent to their deaths, by voting for an invasion of Iraq by Bush, for chrissakes! And continuing to fund it!

In case you missed, I've always said booosh is the poodle of the british oligrachy, no the other way around as reported on the MSM and here:
-------------------------------
The New Poodle
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair was known as "Bush's poodle," whereas it was Blair who was really manipulating the gullible George Bush, in much the same way Margaret Thatcher had manipulated his father. Now we have a new poodle in Prime Minister Gordon Brown, deployed to the United States to hook the dumb Americans into yet another British trap. In a three-day visit, Brown met with Bush, the leading Presidential contenders, Fed chairman Ben Bernanke, and a group of prominent Wall Street financiers.
Brown's April 16 meeting with some two dozen bankers in New York followed a meeting the previous day with bankers in London, amidst reports that the Bank of England was planning some sort of bailout of the U.K. mortgage market. Depending upon which report you read, the Bank of England is either planning on buying up British mortgage-related securities with government money, or planning to take in such securities as collateral for loans, much as the Fed is already doing. Given the level of duplicity in such matters, we place little credence in the details, but Brown's trip would appear to be a significant escalation of the British drive to lure the U.S. Government into a suicidal attempt to bail out the banks through government purchases of securities related to U.S. mortgages and other debt."

Now we have to lose another 4050 to show the first 4050 that their sacrificies were "Not In Vain". What a load of S**t . Why did we never hear that we should have lost another 58,000 in viet Nam for the same reason?

Rush Limbaugh calling for riots in Denver apparently is not important enough for dkos, Raw Story, Americablog, Think Progress, Josh Marshall, BuzzFlash, or C&L to call him on it. On his radio show on Wednesday he encouraged people to riot because it would guarantee that no Democrat would be elected president. When callers objected he said he was just "dreaming" but who names their dreams "Operation Chaos"
Aquarius, what are you talking about? I have been reading about this on left blogs all morning.

I wrote that comment about the same time John posted his article. this morning. I checked all the blogs before I wrote it and didn't see anything. Since that time I have discovered that dkos had an article but in order to find it you had to go to the diaries. In addition, C&L posted an article yesterday afternoon on. So I was not correct in stating in was not important enough for those blogs. Still Raw Story, Think Progres, Talking Points with Josh Marshall and BuzzFlash have not addressed Rush Limbaugh's call for riots.
Limbaugh is a blow hard with 14 million listeners, some of whom certainly hate "liberals". His repeated rants for two days in a row should not be taken lightly. He has interfered with the Democratic Process by encouraging Republicans to cross over and vote for Hillary AND now he wants riots. Someone needs to shut this man up.

Thats high treason, punishable with death.
".....The bigger problem, as we have often emphasized, is that the financial crisis is but one aspect of a much larger crisis: the breakdown of civilization itself, as reflected in the assault by the oligarchic forces which control the British Empire on the nation-states, and what little remains of national sovereignty in the world. The so-called financial crisis does not exist as a separate issue, because the system has died; it is being kept "alive" in a zombie-like state by a combination of trillions of taxpayer dollars and an accounting system designed to hide the losses."
