Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

Bill Maher has a section at the end of his HBO show, Real Time With Bill Maher, called New Rules. It’s a short comedic section where he points out things that bug him and asks that they be put to rest. The final entry is one that he jokes about and then delves into for […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

The conservative radicals of the party simply are not understanding what happened on Tuesday. Rush Limbaugh is suggesting it’s all about race. Sean Hannity has a litany of things the Right has to do to get the party back on track and they’re all pretty off-base. The problem is not race. It’s not the force […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

Barack Obama has been projected as the 44th President by CNN and it’s something to behold. For better or worse (and I think it can only be better) we’ve made major history with this choice. I hope this quiets the radicals on the Right for a while as their rhetoric is very much at the […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

Well, here we are on election eve and FOX News is having a real tizzy. It’s endless railing on Jeremiah Wright and the Barack Obama quote from 11 months ago regarding coal plants. This is their Hail Mary pass? Dick Morris should just be given a show on FOX News. How this guy has any […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

For some time now Rush Limbaugh has been telling his listeners that polling is a bunch of garbage because it’s all a tool of the liberal media to dissuade conservatives by giving them the impression that they might as well stay home on election day as the race is already over. He then suggested that […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

A quick thought before I forget it. John McCain was in Pennsylvania this weekend and was making a comment that stuck out pretty strongly for me. He basically said, “Senator Joe Biden has a habit of going off-message and telling the truth.” He was speaking about the goof-up Biden fell into when he was candid […]

I want to know when the FBI and local authorities are going to get off their asses and get out on the street to catch a despicable criminal that has clearly been traveling around the country. What kind of sick mind brainwashes someone to wear $150,000 wardrobes against their will while making them act as […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

The further I get from the debate the more I think John McCain lost it by a wide margin (not withstanding Fox News‘ poll that had 89% saying McCain won….. amazing). The biggest things that stand out now: 1. John McCain, when asked by moderator Tom Brokaw (who really stunk) who he’d appoint as Treasury […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

I’m in the middle of watching the debate and so far it’s pretty one-sided. John McCain is not winning this debate so far. He’s doing little with respect to laying out his plans and simply attacking Barack Obama. I also feel much of the approach he’s using as condescending. The biggest example was when he […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

The Vice Presidential debate is over and I’m glad we can finally talk about larger issues again. The bottom line for this debate was clear in my view. It was less about who won or lost and more about Governor Sarah Palin‘s performance. She’s the one everyone is curious about. After the incredible disaster of […]

Everything Else 2016 Republican Debate #1

Well it appears President Bush has finally caught on that something big is going on over on Wall Street. In a session today he stated, “The American people are concerned about the situation in our financial markets and our economy, and I share their concerns. I’ve canceled my travel today to stay in Washington, where […]
