Senator McCain finally admitted today that Senator Obama did not call Sarah Palin a pig. Then when he was asked about his LIE that Governor Palin had never asked for any earmarks as governor (she asked for $200 million worth, actually), his response? That Senator Obama had asked for more. Notice that diversion? Doesn’t address the fact that he lied. […]

Now we’re talkin’. More like this please. The McCain campaign’s response? We’re running a campaign to win. And we’re not too concerned about what the media filter tries to say about it. In other words, they’ll just keep lying ’cause that’s how they think they’re going to win. And fuck you and the media if you don’t like it. That’s […]

We lost one of the good ones this past Friday when David Foster Wallace, author of the legendary Infinite Jest, was found dead from suicide. DFW’s insight into society and American life, in particular, made him a standout in the literary world. His death is a tragic loss. In 2000, DFW spent two weeks on the campaign trail with John […]

The US economy is almost literally melting down before our eyes. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are taken over by the US government. Lehman Brothers going bankrupt. Merrill Lynch has had to sell itself to Bank of America to save itself. A.I.G. is is asking the Federal Reserve for $40 billion to keep afloat. The list goes on. And yet […]

Sarah Palin has “been to Iraq”. Actually, she almost was in Iraq. I mean, as in, she was right on the border and stuff. Asked to clarify where she traveled in Iraq, Palin’s spokeswoman, Maria Comella, confirmed that “She visited a military outpost on the other side of the Kuwait-Iraq border.” Not so, according to Lieutenant Colonel Dave Osborn, commander […]

Now THAT’S Calling a Fucking Liar a Fucking Liar. No holds barred from the St. Petersburg Times out of Florida today. None at all… Campaign of lies disgraces McCain McCain’s straight talk has become a toxic mix of lies and double-speak. It is leaving a permanent stain on his reputation for integrity, and it is a short-term strategy that eventually […]

Today’s quote comes from a dude who has been in the news a bit lately. This is a quote about Mitt Romney and Rudy 911uliani running for president. “I am prepared. I am prepared. I need no on-the-job training. I wasn’t a mayor for a short period of time. I wasn’t a governor for a short period of time.” Who […]

This right here is how it is done: you call a fucking liar a fucking liar. To his face. On television. Make him defend his side’s fucking lies. Brilliant. I’m just sayin’…

Planned Parenthood has an independent ad out appropriately chastising the McPalin campaign for their gutter ad suggesting that there’s something terribly wrong for Senator Obama’s support of legislation designed to help protect children from sexual predators. Me likes. Of course one of my commenters suggests that kids getting raped is their parents’ fault. Nice. I’ll go on the record here […]

See? She’s just a folksy hockey-mom. Don’t mind the fact that she pays hunters to shoot wolves from the sky. Jesus. More in-depth reporting on this at Salon.com I’m just sayin’…

Whoa. Paul Krugman at the New York Times eviscerates the McPalin campaign for their LIES. Did you hear about how Barack Obama wants to have sex education in kindergarten, and called Sarah Palin a pig? Did you hear about how Ms. Palin told Congress, “Thanks, but no thanks” when it wanted to buy Alaska a Bridge to Nowhere? These stories […]
