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.

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.

Remember the hacker kid that I warned everyone against publishing his picture?
Well, it seems the FBI has caught up with him.
The Report via WBIR:
Quote:
The FBI is stepping up its investigation into the possibility that a University of Tennessee student hacked into the personal e-mail of Vice
Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.A person who identified himself as a witness tells 10 News that agents with the FBI served a federal search warrant at the Fort Sanders residence of David Kernell early Sunday morning. Kernell lives in the Commons apartment complex at 1115 Highland Ave.
David Kernell is the son of Mike Kernell, a Democratic state representative from Memphis.
A Department of Justice spokesperson confirmed there has been “investigatory activity” in Knoxville regarding the Palin case, but she said there are no publicly available search warrants, and no charges have been filed.
A separate law enforcement source confirmed to 10 News that a search warrant was served on Kernell’s apartment.
According to the witness, several agents arrived at The Commons of Knoxville around midnight.
They presented their badges upon entering Kernell’s apartment, where several students were having a party, and took down their names.
The witness tells us they asked him and those who did not live in the unit to go outside. He believes the investigators took about 1.5 to 2 hours taking pictures of everything inside the apartment.
He says Kernell’s three roommates were also subpoenaed, and must testify this week (Tuesday) in Chattanooga.
It could mean quite a bit, and at the same time, it would mean nothing. But I would think with subpoenas and all, someone is in some serious trouble.
I’m still not publishing his picture. 😀

This is interesting….
It was a room full of people who rarely hold their tongues. But as the Fed chairman, Ben S. Bernanke, laid out the potentially devastating ramifications of the financial crisis before congressional leaders on Thursday night, there was a stunned silence at first.
Mr. Bernanke and Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. had made an urgent and unusual evening visit to Capitol Hill, and they were gathered around a conference table in the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
“When you listened to him describe it you gulped,” said Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York.
As Senator Christopher J. Dodd, Democrat of Connecticut and chairman of the Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee, put it Friday morning on the ABC program “Good Morning America,” the congressional leaders were told “that we’re literally maybe days away from a complete meltdown of our financial system, with all the implications here at home and globally.”
Mr. Schumer added, “History was sort of hanging over it, like this was a moment.”
When Mr. Schumer described the meeting as “somber,” Mr. Dodd cut in. “Somber doesn’t begin to justify the words,” he said. “We have never heard language like this.”
“What you heard last evening,” he added, “is one of those rare moments, certainly rare in my experience here, is Democrats and Republicans deciding we need to work together quickly.” – Read the Rest at the New York Times
It’s at times like this, you wonder what Ron Paul would say. But seems the best he can do is babble on like some demented old goat. It’s no wonder that the rest of sane society, that does not ascribe to the drivel that comes out of Alex Jones’s Website(s), tended dismiss Ron Paul as some sort of an lamppost scratching mental patient.
Anyhow, I’m sure you are thinking that I’m totally against this. In a way, the whole idea of our financial system being nationalized, does not exactly make me want to break open a bottle of champagne and celebrate. Because I do believe in a free market system. However, at the same time, I do not wish to see the economy totally collapse either.
On the other hand, I am a bit encouraged to see that the leaders on capital hill have decided to put partisan politics aside and get to the problem and attempt to fix it. Hopefully they can hash out some sort of a plan.

Seeing that John McCain is making rather idiotic gaffes like Firing the SEC chair, Which he cannot do and then basically insulting the Prime Minister of Spain.
It’s no damn wonder he is slipping in the polls. Well, that and picking a Vice President who’s biggest accomplishment was being a PTA Board Member, A Mayor and The Governor of Alaska. That and being able to see Russia from her house.
It’s no damn wonder she’s being dis invited and canceling appearances.
Just sayin’…
