If you’re not going to take this election seriously, Barry…
…then drop out of it. No, really.
…then drop out of it. No, really.
In response to what, I hear you ask? Why, this*: I figure that I could ask Obama supporters when they were going to start wearing ceremonial articles of clothing, or maybe I could start shouting out “Is there no help for the Widow’s Son?” and “Jacques de Molay, thou art avenged!” at random moments{*}; I might have even made a suggestion that Obama’s real purpose | Read More »
Watch the latest exercise in hate speech from Democratic challenger Nikki Taylor – Hi, Nikki! Nothing EVER GOES AWAY on the Internet, you miserable anti-Semite. It’s useless to even try! – against Democratic incumbent Steve Cohen (TN-09) for the context of the subtitle: Nikki Tinker race baits Steve Cohen. @ Yahoo! Video This was apparently a little too public hateful for Senator Obama to ignore | Read More »
OK, let’s walk through this. Mistake #1: On Wednesday morning, the Obama campaign announced its new salvo in the energy debate. This one was going to be a deal-changer; IMMEDIATE, UNLIMITED DRILLING… HAH! I kid. No, they announced that they were going to do an ad run on Gas Station TV. If you’re wondering who they are: it’s a company that puts up televisions in | Read More »
A bit… furtive, don’t you think? Not the first time, either. By the way, Barry: bonus points for attacking McCain as being a supporter of an energy policy that you voted for and he didn’t. Tell me, if we let you sit in the Oval Office for five minutes, spin the chair around, and maybe make a policy call to the State Department… would that | Read More »
…to BrianFaughnan’s quite good post, but I decided it was worth it’s own blog: Obama has two problems, here. The first is that he needs to “respond to every criticism leveled at him by a Republican operative,” simply because his party’s mythology is full of stories about The Democrat Who Wouldn’t Fight Back (instead of, say, The Democrat Who Fought Back Like an Idiot). He | Read More »
And I do like myself a challenge. By now you’ve all heard about how the Obama campaign got its math wrong about how much money McCain raised from the oil industry. But let’s say that they did raise $2 million. If that money’s tainted, then why did Obama take 400 grand of it himself? If it’s not, then why is he trying to scare you? | Read More »
The one that Ed saw has already been taken down. What makes this particularly sad, of course, is that Representative Cohen is an early Obama super-delegate… and one who has been assaulted for months, in some of the vilest ways possible. He has a right to receive some sort of support from his erstwhile patron, in other words: either out of pragmatism, or simple human | Read More »
Thanks for pointing that one out! (Via RCP) By the way, if you think that your contempt for the average American voter wasn’t blazing throughout that article… well, write another twenty just like it. If you write thirty, well, maybe Obama will let you sit in his special Presidential Chair. You can even get your friends to pretend to be the Joint Chiefs of Staff | Read More »
However could this change of heart possibly have happened? Obama says give Fla. and Mich. delegates full vote WASHINGTON – Now that Barack Obama has clinched the Democratic nomination for president, he wants convention delegates from Florida and Michigan to have full voting rights at the party’s national convention. Obama sent a letter Sunday to the party’s credentials committee, asking members to reinstate the delegates’ | Read More »
Well, they tried to lipstick the pig, but you know and I know what this means: Due to the late date of the two parties’ nominating conventions, and the relatively short period between the end of the conventions and the first proposed debate, it is likely that the four Commission debates will be the sole series of debates in the fall campaign. Consequently, we believe | Read More »
Everybody reading this knows that they’ll accept this slap – like every other slap and outrage – and then meekly go back to working for him and his like the good little drones that they are. They’ll keep sending him money, too. But they’ll whine about it all the while, which will make them feel like they’ve actually accomplished something (for a change) – so | Read More »
In their haste to find a racial angle to the increasingly commonplace assertion that Senator Barack Obama is becoming a rather arrogant jackass, the New York Times gives the whole thing away in one fell – and funny – swoop: But Rick Davis, Mr. McCain’s campaign manager, had a snappy answer. “Barack Obama has played the race card, and he played it from the bottom | Read More »
So concludes Allahpundit, based on what we’ve been hearing from a rather pouting Left recently: Mind you, if I had burned through half a billion dollars on a divisive primary, and only gotten back the results that the Democrats have gotten, I’d probably be pouting too. Besides everything esle, I doubt that anybody actually thought to save their receipts. Moe Lane
Oh, right: we were so busy rolling our eyes at the generically Democratic accusations of racism that we completely overlooked the specifically Democratic exhibition of killing hubris. Well, that’ll teach us: Obama says Republicans trying to scare voters {snip} “Nobody thinks that Bush and McCain have a real answer to the challenges we face. So what they’re going to try to do is make you | Read More »
Because, really, the stupidity of the article below is crystallizing at the bottom of the glass. I note with interest today, John McCain’s new tactic of associating Barack Obama with oversexed and/or promiscuous young white women. (Via Jake Tapper, who submitted this without comment, except to casually deflate Marshall’s clumsy attempt to link this to the Ford ad*; then again, given that Jake had previously | Read More »
But July 30th? Not so much. (Via Hot Air Headlines Tick. Tick. Tick.
I’m sure that said reaction will be quite significant. So, starting with Rasmussen, we have a six-point bounce… erm. Back down to two and margin-of-error, huh? :crumpling up paper and tossing it in wastebasket: Well, there’s always Gallup and its 9 8 6 4 point lead. Or, as Gallup put it on 7/23,”modest“… :crumple:
Nothing too profound: only, if Obama’s European trip was mostly supposed to be about the Germany speech, and if said speech was supposed to be evocative of both JFK’s and Ronald Reagan’s… why is it that none of the text of that speech has captured the public imagination? Stop your average American on the street, and they’ll know the most famous phrases from either Kennedy | Read More »
Somebody actually went and dug out Obama’s written prayer note that he inserted (as per the custom) in the Wailing Wall… then had it published in a local Israeli newspaper. As per a AP report of a while back, notes placed there are not to be read by human eyes! They are prayers holding the name of God, and as per longstanding Jewish religious custom | Read More »
