I can’t help myself. If I could, I would, but I can’t. So you’re just going to have to accept that. Yes. If John McCain has his way, this is the woman who will be our Vice-President. *twitch* I’m just sayin’…

This is over the top stuff right here, kids. My friend, Doug, a former inhabitant of the Twin Cities, sent me a link to Glen Greenwald’s reporting for Salon.com on multiple raids that have happened over the past couple of days of peaceful protesters in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area for the Republican National Convention. Greenwald’s most excellent (and multiply-updated) Salon […]

If you think that Sarah Palin is a good choice for Senator McCain to make as his vice-presidential running mate, answer me this question: “If Sarah Palin were a man with her same credentials, would McCain have chosen him?”Your answer to that question pretty much says all that needs to be said with regard to this transparently pandering choice. Republicans […]

I’m stunned. Really. Stunned. How fucking stupid is this guy? McCain was scheduled to deliver his acceptance speech Thursday but now may do so from the devastation zone if the storm hits the U.S. coast with the ferocity feared by forecasters. He’s going to hang out in New Orleans all week as it gets slammed by a Category 5 hurricane […]

Guess who didn’t have a passport until last year. Ayup. Vice Presidential Nominee, Sarah Palin. Ms. Palin appears to have traveled very little outside the United States. In July 2007, she had to get a passport before she visited members of the Alaska National Guard stationed in Kuwait, according to her deputy communications director, Sharon Leighow. She also visited wounded […]

Focus on the Family douchebag and digital media director for Focus on the Family’s “Focus Action”, Stuart Shepard, sent out a YouTube plea that people pray for rain on the night of Senator Obama’s acceptance speech. In fact, not just rain but “Abundant rain. Torrential rain. Urban and small stream flood advisory rain.” Unfortunately for them, God heard their prayers […]

Jesus, McCain, get a grip, dude. Watch him while Palin speaks. He even gets “busted” a couple of times. Here’s the far less appropriate version with the thoughts running through McCain’s head over-dubbed. I’m warning you, it’s pretty inappropriate: I’m just sayin’…

This bit of awesome prose was recently put out on the internets. See if you can figure out from whence it came. We will not ship away prisoners in the dead of night to be tortured in far off countries, or detain without trial or charge prisoners who can and should be brought to justice for their crimes, or maintain […]

I never really thought about it like this: Heh, heh. I’m just gigglin’…

This edition of Who Said THAT???! brings us a quote from regarding the choice of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s vice presidential running mate. HINT: It comes from someone from her very own state. “She’s not prepared to be governor. How can she be prepared to be vice president or president?…Look at what she’s done to this state. What would […]

Andrew Sullivan sums it perfectly: Think about what the Palin pick really says about how McCain views this campaign and how he views his potential responsibilities in national security. Think about what it says about the sincerity of McCain’s own central criticism of Obama these past two months in foreign affairs. Think about how he picked a woman to be […]
