It’s bad enough that someone did this in the first place but to then to just brush it off like it’s nothing really takes the cake. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s last name is spelled “Osama” on some 300 absentee ballots mailed out this week to voters in Rensselaer County hilltowns. Is it a Freudian slip, intentional gaffe or a […]

I hereby declare myself NOT GUILTY!!! *applause* I’m just sayin’…

“Who the hell pays $273,000 for ‘household help’???” “John McCain does.” “John McCain does? What the fuck?!” I’m just sayin’…

I admit it: I am unabashedly inspired by Barack Obama. I’m inspired by his speeches. I’m inspired by his written words. I’m inspired by the way he has and is running his campaign. And I’m inspired by his life story. Although I live in the liberal Ann Arbor area, I work in a VERY conservative town. Almost daily I listen […]

The scumbag that hacked Governor Palin’s personal email account turned himself in yesterday. I hope he gets the book thrown at him. His little stunt does nothing to further the cause of Democrats. Sure, she shouldn’t have been using a private account to avoid records-retention rules. Fine. I agree. Throw the book at her on that. But illegally hacking into […]

This is a great piece, filled with Republicans talking about McCain’s temperament. This guy in charge? Not if I can help it. Thanks to my friend, Jana, for this. I’m just sayin’…

It’s a matter of […]

Are you fucking kidding me??? Logo courtesy of Andrew Sullivan. I’m just sayin’…

Ypsilanti? Yes, Ypsilanti. Bruce Springsteen in Ypsilanti, Michigan. It’s possible that only Barack Obama could make that possible. “Hello, Ypsilanti!” Springsteen shouted to the audience of around 11,000. “Glad to be here! I don’t know how to spell it, though.” Even so, the rock legend seemed very comfortable in this odd-named town that’s an eclectic blend of college students from […]

Here’s how John McCain is going to close the budget gap that’s creating the gigantic federal deficit. He’s going to eliminate earmarks. Earmarks, as part of our overall budget, are that little sliver of red in the pie chart below: Via ForeignPolicy.com. Oh, yeah, he’s also going to cut taxes for the uber-wealthy. Good luck with all of that. Straight […]

As Sarah Palin scans her morning coffee cup for words of inspiration and wisdom, one wonders if, in light of their campaign’s recent turn toward the Dark Side, this quote appeared to her: “In life you need either inspiration or desperation.”– Anthony Robbins And THIS is enough to make anyone desperate: Pollster data from 10/6/2008 This is Desperation’s Crocodile. At […]
