I just read that someone is voting for Romney because “he looks Presidential”. What does a President look like? I love this country, so vain, so arrogant, so stupid. And that shit will never come back to haunt us and when it does, we’ll have deserved it.

But, I guess I’ll join them…I want a chick prez with big tits and a nice ass with lips like Angelina. She best not have those nasty friggin Hillary thighs though. And if she can’t think, what does that matter? She’s got that fantastic rack!

I’ve got lips like Angelina, but you won’t see me running for prez. For one thing, I don’t have the dough – or the political stomach and/or experience.

And I can’t say I’d want Brad Pitt’s ladylove to be president – those public displays of not-so-private copulation with then-husband B.B. Thornton in 2000 really creeped me out.

I agree – voting for someone because of how they “look” is stupid. Hillary may look presidential, but I’m leaning more and more toward Obama. His energizing, brilliant speech at the 2004 Democratic convention augured great, great things – in my opinion. He’s young; he’s vibrant; he’s forward-thinking; he’s intelligent…..

And he don’t got a spouse with a nasty temper and and an even nastier ex-intern in her past. That’s, like……oh, I don’t know……HUGE.

I think good ol’ B. Clinton may have irrevocably harmed his spouse’s chances of taking over the W. House. When you’ve sunk to certifiable idiocy – and taken the country down with you – a decade ago, the public doesn’t really like petulance and temper tantrums.

I’d place my bets on Obama. And, no, not because he “looks” presidential (although he does). Rather, because he just could BE presidential.

It’s official, Sebelius endorsed Obama!!

Hey Herb…are you absolutely sure the doctor told you to quit taking your meds?

Here is an example of how far our newsmedia has swayed from simply reporting the news. Now, they editorialize for the American People, “what the news SHOULD be”:

WASHINGTON (CNN) – It could have been a moment for Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to demonstrate the civility they say we need in our politics.

Here’s where it could have happened.

When Clinton straightened up, Kennedy quickly reached across Barack Obama to shake Clinton’s hand. She took it. As they spoke, Obama turned away. Then the senators seated to Obama’s right – Ben Nelson and Ken Salazar — both shook Senator Clinton’s hand and talked to her. Instead of doing the same, Obama turned to look at the back of the room. Sen. Claire McCaskill, who has also endorsed Obama and was seated next to Kennedy, reached across the Massachusetts senator — who was still talking to Clinton — and tapped Obama (still twisted toward the back of the room) on the shoulder. McCaskill engaged Obama in conversation until the moment passed.

It all lasted less than five minutes. Neither acknowledged the other all night.

Question:

I’m curious as to who Ms. Ewing is referring to:

“WASHINGTON — The $146 billion economic aid package on a fast track to passage in the House faces an uncertain future in the Senate, where lawmakers in both parties are trying to tack on billions for senior citizens and the unemployed.” FOXNEWS

That’s right people. Give me some of that FREE MONEY! Seniors demand a piece of everyone else’s pie.

And the political parties agree.

Just wait. Just everyone wait until 77 million of us boomers get on the receiving end of this limitless money trough. There will be no political appointee, no senator, no congressman, and no president whom we will not control.

Seniors will rule.

and politicians on both sides relent. Doesn’t matter that they didn’t earn the money – just give them a piece of it.

Just wait. Just wait until 77 million of us boomers reach the federal trough. There will not be a senator, there will not be a congressman, and there will not be a president we do not install.

Seniors rule.

Paul Defeats Clinton in Clinton Country

MIDDLETOWN, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul defeated Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in the first straw poll to pit Republicans against Democrats on the same ballot. Middletown, CT held its city straw poll Saturday night at the Church of Holy Trinity. Proceeds from the $10 fee for participating were donated to the Connecticut Breast Cancer Coalition. Paul led on the first ballot with 42 percent to Clinton’s 30 percent and Obama’s 20 percent. Other candidates received 2 percent or less. Other trailing candidates were eliminated and on the third ballot Paul prevailed 46 to 42 percent.

Bryan Tracy, who is with the Paul campaign in Connecticut, said although the Clinton supporters in Middletown were surprised, he wasn’t.

“This shows Ron Paul’s electability in the general election,” Tracy said. “We think that when people get a chance to compare our stands on the issues with Hillary’s, we will prevail.”

Y’all do recall that New Hampshire is underway with a recount? No? Wonder why that is? Hate to have THAT curtain drawn back…

Election integrity activists in New Hampshire are finding all kinds of problems with the electronic vote count in last week’s presidential primary, after a first day of recounting the Democratic vote…
According to an extensive report by Brad Friedman, …, there have been numerous errors — small and large — that the recount, a process where paper ballots that were originally scanned by computer are now counted by hand, has turned up.
These include: electronic tallies that were off by several votes, paper ballots [that] were not read by electronic scanners (550 in one town), ballots that were not read because the voters used the wrong kind of marking pen. He also reported that some election records are missing, notably computer memory cards.

Y’all still thinking your vote matters? Not unless you stay on top and FORCE your vote to count.

To: TAZ, why would someone need meds when they crae about others and want to stop corruption? What is caring about pople do you want to “DOPE UP”??? Herb West III, west.herb@yahoo.com http://www.wen2k.com

That great homeownership under bush that Max used to like to tout, is at 67% same as in 2002, and falling more everyday.

Chas., made an afternoon sojourn to http://www.realclearpolitics.com, and found that the polling on the GOP Florida primary was “too close to call” between Sen. McCain and Gov. Romney. What is clear is that Mayor Giuliani seems destined to be in third place once the dust settles. Of course, rebuttable presumption exists as to statistical accuracy of sample, truthfulness in responses to pollsters, etc.

Exit polls are usually pretty reliable. That is what the US State depatrment uses in places like Kenya when they say an election has been fraudulent.

Yes, Ben, but aren’t exit poll results embargoed until the polls close? I was referring to the “last minute” pre-election polls, which were concluded before Gov. Crist’s endorsement of Sen. McCain, I believe.

I have been having great fun listening to the talk radio moguls fussing and fuming over McCain leading the polls over Romney and Rudy… They seem to be trying to sway voters away from McCain… and here I figured he was their war hero, and all american boy!! Turns out they are all against him!!

Most interesting…..

“Eliminate Taxes on Capital Gains. Investment should be embraced and rewarded.”

Looks good… but, IIRC, Capital Gains includes more than investment income… Do you want to include huge profit margins on sales of real estate, etc., in this tax elimination?? or do you just want to eliminate Capital Gains Tax on INVESTMENTS???

gotta love capitalism,from the website:

If you are facing or considering foreclosure, you’re not alone.

* Are you stressed out about your mortgage payments?
* Do you have little or no equity in your home?
* Have you had trouble trying to sell your house?
* Is your home sinking under the waves of the real estate crash?
* What if you could live payment free for up to 8 months or more and walk away without owing a penny?

Is this broken too??

My posts not going through.

Obama stopped COLD in Florida!!

Guliani is now free to spend ALL his time talking about 911.

For the 11 or so people who still want to listen.

And John McCain is the clear GOP front runner.
