Well, it looks like the lawmakers in Washington D.C. have reached an agreement to bail out Wall Street.
Welcome to Nationalized Banking. I just wonder how high taxes will go to pay for this little bail out?
It is to wonder.
It seems there’s been a great deal of oversight added to the original bill and other good things. So, we’ll see.

There are many things that I could write about this man. Most of it has already been written by writers who get paid a hell of a lot more money than me. Paul Newman; The name itself evokes images of a rebel. It also conjures up other images; Quality, integrity, Living what you believe, having the guts to stand up for what you believe in and just being a man.
Paul Newman was the real deal, he lived what he believed. He established a camp for children who are on their last dime in life. He knew the pain, he lost one of his own kids to a drug overdose in 1978. This was Newman’s way of making making someone else’s life a little brighter in a time of terrible suffering. Newman answered the call to War in the 1940’s. In short, he was, in fact, a part of the greatest generation ever. I do not believe that it would be an embellishment of truth to say that Newman was, in fact, an FDR Democrat.
I do not claim to be a movie fanatic or someone who watches lots of movies. But the name Paul Newman has always been a part of the actors of whom I highly respect. Unlike some of the people that reside in this thing we call the Blogosphere, I do not go around wearing my damn politics on my sleeve and I do have more respect than some as well. Yes, Paul Newman was, in fact, a Democrat. He was of the old school Democratic Party, before it became enjoined at the hip to Communist Socialism. From that old school came another great actor, who would go on to be one of our greatest Presidents, Ronald Reagan.
Put your gun down Butch and rest a while. God knows, you’ve earned it.
May he rest in peace and my God be with his family.
Heh, Sullivan thought McCain said, “Horseshit”, instead of “Of Course you can”.
Wow. I thought I was shallow. 😛
Anyhow, here’s a song that I feel fits the occasion:
“Smells like horseshit, down on the farm!”
Too Funny!

Now I realize that some of you might not like the idea of all the ads. But I need the money. So, the ads are there. I’d appreciate it, if you’d click a few of them…
Also… I have donation buttons to your right over there. They’re not there for looks, they’re there for a reason. If you can spare the extra cash, drop a few bucks into the tip jar.
Thanks,

YEAH, I DON’T THINK THAT this Sarah Palin swimsuit video is going to do the campaign any harm.
Now, a Joe Biden swimsuit video . . . well, best not even think of it.
*Snort*

Via Talking Points Memo:
I’ve always said it. You cannot sell Jack Cafferty a line of B.S., at all. Between this interview and McCain’s performance last night, If I were the Republicans, I would not aim too high on this election. Because you might just be setting yourselves up for a let down. A hard letdown in November.

Obama was well prepared. Articulated his points very well. McCain was snobbish and a bit of an asshole.
However, McCain did well as well. There were no gaffes that I really thought were worth mentioning.
Because I am not in the tank for either, I say it was a draw.
I’ve been up past my bedtime and now am going to bed.
More Blogging when I wake up.

Well, I just done something rather dumb. 😯
I just deleted a weeks worth of postings from my Blog. I was supposed to delete just one. and I ended up deleting a whole weeks worth. Ooops!
I might be able to fix it. But I may just leave it… Not sure yet.
Sorry about that. 🙁
Update: After thinking about it, I haven’t done a backup in a while. So, the latest messages wouldn’t be there anyhow… D’oh! 🙄

If this hits the Main Stream media, it very well could ruin John McCain’s Presidential Campaign.
It appears that John McCain’s Chief of staff is a Homosexual.
Quote:
What does John McCain’s loyal chief of staff – a man who apparently is in a long-term relationship with another man, and appears to be open about it to John McCain — think about the fact that Sarah Palin devoutly worships at a church that promotes “converting” gays to heterosexuality? What, conversely, does she think of him? More importantly, what does John McCain think about all of this? And don’t we deserve some answers from the American media?
Over the past month I’ve been contacted by three different individuals (two of them members of the Log Cabin Republicans) claiming that McCain’s Senate chief of staff, Mark Buse, is gay. None of these individuals would be quoted by name, though each described Buse as being rather “open” to those around him and to his family – in a “glass closet” rather than deeply undercover or trying to appear heterosexual.
Then I was contacted in recent weeks by 46-year-old Brian Davis, an Arizona resident, who told me about his intimate relationship with Mark Buse (confirmed by Davis’ mother, as well as by a long-time friend), and who decided he needed to tell the truth about Buse, on the record, in light of John McCain’s dramatic shift to the ideological religious right in this election and his choice of Sarah Palin, starlet of the evangelical movement, as a running mate. (Repeated calls to Mark Buse’s office and calls and email to McCain’s communications office in the Senate regarding this story were unreturned. Mike Rogers, the blogger and activist who revealed the truth about Senator Larry Craig and others in politics, today reports this same reality about Mark Buse that I report here, with separate, independent sourcing.)
[…]
The traditional media may be petrified to pick up this story but people across the country who see McCain’s hypocrisy and who support equality will only demand more answers. Certainly our media could serve us better by getting us those answers rather than once again putting their heads in the sand.
Unbelievable. I’ve always said that the Republican Party is becoming more and more like the Democratic Party everyday. The line of separation is become smaller and more blurred by the minute.
Can someone please tell me, just what the hell happened to the Party of Morals? I always thought that the G.O.P. was the Party of Christian morals? I always thought that the Republican Party was the Anti-Liberal Party? I thought it was the one who differed themselves from the Party of God-forsaken homosexuals? It seems that I was quite wrong about that.
Between this and the Republicans selling the Fiscal Conservatives, like me, up the damn river. I’m almost inclined to believe that the Republican has officially gone to hell.
Needless to say, The Republican Party is NOT the Party of Ronald Reagan. I mean, A gay staffer, A female V.P. pick? What the hell is going on in that Party??!?!?! Whatever happened to women staying home and raising their children and being a good Conservative Christian Woman? Whatever happened to Conservatives shunning the sin-depraved Homosexuals?
It simply boggles the mind….

It seems so…. The guys over at The Jawa Report have been doing some digging, with friends of theirs and the results are startling.
The Points being made are:
While some of these points could possibly be argued, if there is any truth to this. Obama might be looking at some serious problems here.
Memeorandum has more reactions.
