Breaking News: Clinton not Wooden and Boring

2007-07-29T23:48:00.000-05:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19974672/

This here... is an exact quote from this article. The article was written, about the different styles of Hillary Clinton and Fred Thompson.

...will credit Clinton — widely criticized at the race’s onset as a wooden, impersonal speaker — with a surprisingly savvy series of early debate performances that won over some of her most ardent skeptics.

I... have no idea what to say to that. Other then... did I miss something? Now granted... if I was playing the "Pick a Democratic Presidential Candidate" game... I'd aim for her. But seriously. Savvy? Savvy? SAVVY?!

And may I point out that ardent is a great Scrabble word, but a horrible when placed in front of a noun.

“As it turned out, like every previous Democratic debate, we were left watching Hillary and the Seven Dwarfs,”

OK. That would be the worst movie ever! EVER! And I know, I'm using the bold thing a lot here.

The article was written with a strong Hillary-bias. It compared the strategies of Fred Thompson and Hillary Clinton. When you read it, you get the vibe from it that the writer is trying to say..."While Hillary's strategy is well thought out and genius, Fred Thompson's strategy is pointless and stupid."

I have decided that it will probably be these two that represent their political parties in the general election.

Edwards and Romney are Winning in Iowa

2007-07-27T15:19:00.000-05:00

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2007/07/27/edwards-romney-lead-in-iowa-poll/

So... If I had to pick my least favorite Democrat in this election. It would be John Edwards. If I had to pick my least favorite Republican in this election, it would be Ron Paul. If I had to pick my second least favorite Republican, it would be Mitt Romney.

But guess what. Guess who's winning in Iowa. For the Democrats? Is it an annoying Jr. Senator from Illinois? No.... Is it the only Democrat who believes in terrorism and was once the First Lady? No.... Well, if you said evil malpractice attorney who pretends to channel the spirits of dead people during court. Then you guessed correctly.

Now for the Republicans. Is it the war veteran? Nope.... Is it a skinny man from Texas? Nope.... Is it a Yankees fan? Not even close... What about a star in Hollywood? Wrong again.... But if you were to guess a man who flip flops more then John Kerry, they you would be correct.

I will have to say that a Edwards vs. Romney election... would be a loose loose for America.

Vote, for Wayne Allyn Root.

Bloomberg's Not Running

2007-07-26T20:21:00.000-05:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17152232/

This is a sad day in the world of possibly spoiling the Democrats chances of having a president elected in their favor. Bloomberg said he is not running, nor does he want to be the vice president. He says he has a good job.

What's so funny about this, is the speculation was that if he ran, he would fund himself. He would pay for it himself!!! So I guess we finally know what Americans want in a president. Not someone who is honest, or keeps his promises. We apparently want someone who will pay for it themselves. Too funny.

Hillary Clinton Making Sense... This can't be Good

2007-07-24T23:48:00.001-05:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19933710/

First off, before I say anything, I want all of you people (all 4 of you!) to just look at the glare that the former first lady is sending the Chicago senator. She could probably kill him with her eyes. Freaky.

Now, moving on to the important stuff. Barack Obama’s offer to meet without precondition with leaders of renegade nations such as Cuba, North Korea and Iran led to Hillary Clinton calling Barack Obama naive. That wasn't very nice of her, but hell... the truth hurts.

Barack Obama then said this linked her directly to the president. There you go Barack. Call her a name. No wonder you're the front runner... oh wait.

I'm glad to say that I will not be stretching on too long about Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. They're just in the news so much it's hard not too. It's as if there is a liberal bias in the news. Oh well, we all know that can't happen.

Chris Dodd, pauper president? More minimum wage Talk...

2007-07-24T18:27:00.000-05:00

Chris Dodd, pauper president?

Chris Dodd is hilarious here. At the CNN You Tube debate last night, he said if president he would not work for the minimum wage. He said this on the grounds that he had 2 daughters he was trying to educate and couldn't live on the minimum wage. That's funny. Saying that a millionaire could not live on the minimum wage for a few years.

What may be even more hilarious is the answers other candidates gave. John Edwards, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama all said they would. They said they would work for the minimum wage. If (and I say if like I talk about he who shall not be named) one of the three shall be elected president... I will quote them on this. And I hope everyone else will too. Why would we think that a US senator is that kind. They work for more than $1000 a day. A Day!

So what have we learned today. John Edwards, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama will lie about anything to get elected, and also there really was no right answer to that question.

John Edwards supports raising the minimum wage... Again?!

2007-07-24T18:06:00.000-05:00

Edwards Pushes Wage Issue on the Stump

John Edwards supports raising the minimum wage... Again?! What is happening here?! We just raised it. Thousands of people are going to go unemployed because the minimum wage was raised, and he wants to raise it again?! Doesn't he get it? What next? Will we see him promise to fire one out of every ten Americans just for fun?! This is horrible.

The exact wage he wants to raise it to is $9.50 per hour! Per hour! So from $5.85 to... $9.50?! I notice he's not promising to lower congress's insane thousand dollar a day salary. That sure isn't going to happen. I doubt if president he would lower his own wage. So what gives?

John Edwards apparently thinks money grows on trees.

Al Gore is a Great Father

2007-07-23T16:14:00.001-05:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19881485/

This headline, I must say, made me happy. I recently had a bad dream where Al Gore ran and was elected president. It was awful.

We were all forced to use public transportation. There was a "toilet paper police". They were making sure I didn't use more then one square, unless it was ruled a "pesky" occasion.

But I turned to MSNBC website to see that Al Gore's son was charged with drug possession. This, I feel, makes it impossible for him to run for president in 2008, or ever again.

Guiliani You're Killing Me!

2007-07-22T14:59:00.000-05:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19844221/

Just to be clear. In January of 2009, I want to see Wayne Allyn Root as president of the United States. I do know that is unlikely, but I feel it is possible.

My #2 pick (and much more likely to win) is Rudy Guiliani, and right now, he is killing me.

At the first Republican debate in May, Giuliani was alone among the GOP candidates in offering a less-than-robust affirmation when asked whether it would be a good day if the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade ruling.
“It would be OK,” Giuliani said. “It would be OK to repeal it.”
But, he added: “It would be OK also if a strict constructionist viewed it as precedent” and kept the law intact.

Aghsadfahgassdhfa!!!! (That was me angry.)

As some of you know... nothing upsets me more than candidates flip-flopping on issues just to appeal to a group of people. I view this as flip-flopping.

However, he did still say some nice things in the article about who he would appoint to the Supreme Court.

Obama will walk the Line... and to think I thought that was a Bad Thing!

2007-07-21T15:55:00.000-05:00

Obama: I’d walk picket line as president

Barack Obama seems to be trying to play himself as an outsider in this presidential election (it says so in the article).

`We are facing a Washington that has thrown open its doors to the most anti-union, anti-worker forces we’ve seen in generations,” Obama said in remarks prepared for delivery Saturday night. “What we need to make real today is the idea that in this country we value the labor of every American.”

So he's complaining about Washington... about the lawmakers of today... and he himself is in the 110th congress... is this really a door he wants open?

What I'm saying is, that by Barack Obama is pretending he's not in Washington right now. He's pretending that he would be a fresh face in Washington. That he would bring a new attitude to Washington. Bull.

He is still a member of the 110th congress, possibly the laziest of them all, and he's trying to pretend he's not. He's trying to pretend like he holds no power in Washington. (Again) Bull.

But maybe (we can only hope) that Barack Obama is doing more harm than good to the situation. Barack Obama is very inexperienced. That's probably his biggest fault (besides his other faults). This is kind of like throwing gas on the fire, isn't it?

Trying to play like he's new, and fresh. This is just prooving (yes, I spell proove with two "o"s. You should too) his inexperience. Hmmm... Sucks for him.

This is a follow-up on what I wrote the other day. What this "debate" is going to consist of will probably be Edwards vs. Clinton for three quarters of the time, and DTMK preaching policy too liberal for everyone else.

Not much to say on this, other than Jim Gilmore cites a late start for dropping out of the GOP primary. Now, only 9 remain.

Super Fat Tuesday

2007-07-14T15:31:00.000-05:00

Super Fat Tuesday. That's what I'm calling it now.

Super Tuesday is February 5, 2008. Some of you might already know this, but I'm going to point it out anyways. Mardi Gras is also that exact same day. Interesting.

Mardi Gras, again for those of you who don't know, is French for "Fat Tuesday".

So put the two together and you've got Super Fat Tuesday.

Now for the serious stuff.

Is this gonna hurt Barack Obama's chances? I think it's safe to say that he is leading among young voters. And isn't that where a lot of young people are going to be that day? Celebrating Mardi Gras? So wouldn't that make sense that it would hurt Barack Obama in the primary election?

Just a thought.

Dennis "The Menace" Kucinich Strikes Again

2007-07-13T17:12:00.000-05:00

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19750182

So here we go again... Dennis "The Menace" strikes again.

Dennis Kucinich is apparently very upset that Sen. Hillary Clinton and Former Sen. John Edwards were overheard discussing the possibility of limiting the number of candidates at the Presidential Forums.

Is it just me, or is this about the same as a Goldfish trying to tell everyone that it supports Pete Rose getting into the Baseball Hall of Fame?

Kucinich called Edwards' explanation "disturbing" and said he planned to contact Edwards and Clinton immediately to demand an apology.

Now I think that's funny. Dennis "The Menace" Kucinich (Who I will now be referring to as DTMK, not to be confused with DTMC which means Don't Touch My Cake) is demanding an apology??? Is he nine? What Edwards and Clinton did was pretty much call his campaign a joke (which it is), and say that he doesn't even deserve to stand on the same stage as the other candidates, and all he asks for is an... apology?

To be fair to DTMK the article said he "planned to contact Edwards and Clinton immediately to demand an apology", but does anyone actually think a squirrely man like DTMK demands much of anything? He certainly doesn't demand respect, and if he is, settling for an apology is not the way to do it.

Edwards told reporters in Iowa that he wasn't in favor of barring anyone from future gatherings. Rather, he said he wanted to see them separated into two groups of four each, chosen randomly.

Also very funny... but why stop there? John "Jam for Brains" Edwards says they should be split up "randomly", but why stop there. Why not just elect to captains, and have them pick teams. Just like gym class.

Now how do you pick captains? Well back in the days of gym class the teacher always pick the captains, but since there's really no teacher there needs to be another way.

What should that "other way" be. I think the electoral college will do. Only once though, and the captains will stay the same for all the forums. The top 2 voter getters will get to be all-time captains. It'll be awesome. Or Deadly. Who knows?

Long time since my last update... I know.

This article is primarily about how Hillary Clinton is a flip-flopper, especially on the issue of the War in Iraq.

Now nothing makes me more upset then when politicians change their positions on issues just because their stance is the unpopular one (Edwards, Romney... I'm talking to you).

But what I was getting at is that it's good to see that people realize the hypocrisy of all the current presidential candidates.
