You know, this bunch of stupid crap right here, is why I no longer wish to be counted among the Democrats anymore.
Chuck Baldwin is getting my vote.
Now this is quite interesting…
Why wasn’t Michael Isikoff’s investigative piece outlining the lobbying connections of Barack Obama’s lead strategist, David Axelrod, promoted in Newsweek’s Sunday e-mail to subscribers?
I’ve cropped the article descriptions from this list for purposes of formatting this post, but I have not removed any of the articles. Although Isikoff’s report appears in the same June 2 issue of Newsweek as the stories at right, it is nowhere to be found here. And it should be, especially considering that the first four articles listed are all generally pro-Obama in their tilt and three are explicitly framed as advice for candidate Obama. The other four articles cover minor issues such as Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy and John McCain.
What happened? One slim possibility is that the article is online-only and thus not eligible for inclusion in a round-up of magazine stories. But this seems not to be the case, as the screen capture above indicates, Newsweek says it’s in the print edition. – Via Blog PI
I must say, I’ve suspected that the liberal media was in the tank for Obama, and this just confirms what I’ve thought all along.
It is pretty stinking bad, when Newsweek, which is owned by MSNBC, buries a story, so the Bloggers won’t get grab the story and run with it. This is the SAME network that allowed their resident liberal attack dog, Keith Olbermann to attack the damned President for trying to control the media, but yet, they do the same damn thing themselves. The hypocrisy of the Left is so vast, you could park the Pentagon, The White House AND the Capital Building in Washington DC in it.
Now maybe I will get lucky Keith Olbermann will name me worst person in the World for saying that about him, one can only hope, God knows I need the traffic for this Blog. Of course, if I honestly gave two flips what that lapdog for Media Matters for America and the DailyKos thought, I wouldn’t be writing this Blog, now would I? 
Seriously, I shouldn’t talk about Keith like that, 
I don’t disagree with everything Keith says. Some stuff I do agree with, especially the things about Bush and the Iraq War, and the Kool-Air drinking right. Some of the stuff, like him ripping on Armed Forces staff at the Pentagon, who are ALSO Soldiers. I don’t agree with. But for the most part, I know he means well. I just wish he’d learn to train the damn fire of that flame thrower at the right people, that’s all. 
(Which he does do, 95% of the time. It’s just that 5% that he gets wrong that annoys me.

So much for that idea eh?
Quote:
Former President Fidel Castro says Sen. Barack Obama’s plan to maintain Washington’s trade embargo against Cuba will cause hunger and suffering on the island.
In a column published Monday by government-run newspapers, Castro said Obama was "the most-advanced candidate in the presidential race," but noted that he has not dared to call for altering U.S. policy toward Cuba.
"Obama’s speech can be translated as a formula for hunger for the country," Castro wrote, referring to Obama’s remarks last week to the influential Cuban American National Foundation in Miami.
Obama said he would maintain the nearly fifty-year-old trade sanctions against Cuba as leverage to push for democratic change on the island. But he also vowed to ease restrictions on Cuban Americans traveling to Cuba and sending money to relatives.
He repeated his willingness to meet with Raul Castro, who in February succeeded his elder brother Fidel to become the nation’s first new leader in 49 years.
Castro said Obama’s proposals for letting well-off Cuban Americans help poorer relatives on the island amounted to "propaganda for consumerism and a way of life that is unsustainable."
He complained that Obama’s description of Cuba as "undemocratic" and "lacking in respect for liberty and human rights" was the same argument previous U.S. administrations "have used to justify their crimes against our homeland."- Via CNN
So much for all that "Hope Change, Change Hope" and new politics and all that other garbage that the Marxist Magic Negro likes to talk about eh?
Looks like ol’ Barry is going to have his work cut out for him and the ‘fierce urgency of now" is going to run smack dab into the "Realities of Today."
There are some things that you just cannot change, and a Country that is hardcore steeped into the Communism, is one of them. Of course, seeing he’s a Marxist as all, he might just be able to talk shop with Cubans.
Birds of a feather, flock together, I always say.
Anybody got a crying towel for this guy?
ABC News Political Radar Reports:
ABC News’ Sarah Amos reports: Former President Bill Clinton in South Dakota today delivered a harsh critique of how his wife has been treated during her presidential bid, telling the crowd that he has "never seen a candidate treated so disrespectfully just for running," and that, "she will win the general election if you nominate her. They’re just trying to make sure you don’t."
Clinton spent more than six minutes calmly discussing what he called a "frantic effort to push her out" of this race, saying that no one asked Ted Kennedy, Jesse Jackson or Gary Hart to end their presidential campaigns early.
Clinton also spoke against bullying superdelegates to make up their minds, saying, "I cant believe it. It is just frantic the way they are trying to push and pressure and bully all these superdelegates to come out. ‘Oh, this is so terrible: The people they want her. Oh, this is so terrible: She is winning the general election, and he is not. Oh my goodness, we have to cover this up.’"
I beg my readers, spare me a few minutes to step outside of my normal decorum and blast this idiotic jack-legged fool.
I sometimes, in the back caverns of my mind, wish that this man’s wife, WOULD win the Democrat Nomination, because if she does not, we are going to have to suffer through 4 to 6 years of listening to Bill Clinton monotonous whining about his wife unfairly losing the Democrat nomination. How she was unfairly treated because she was a woman, how the media singled her out, because she was married to him and on and on and on….
At this point, Bill Clinton is making, as much as I abhor her, Gloria Steinem look like a Catholic school girl! I mean, can’t this moronic tool just admit that his wife does not have the delegates to be nominated and just drop out and move the hell along and let the process take the proper course?
I am sorry Billy Jeff, but two breasts and a warm vagina does not entitle your wife to be President of the United States! I mean, we already have one idiot broad up in the Congress, The Speaker of the house; and what has she done? Nothing! I mean, the very minute she was elected, she backed down from her campaign promises!
I just believe that Bill Clinton needs to seriously look into getting over it, taking him and his idiotic wife and getting the hell OUT of the spotlight, before he causes irreparable damage to her political career and his legacy. (If they even had one to begin with…)
I’m Chuck Adkins and I endorse this message, fully!

The Article: Money shocker! Hillary Clinton’s campaign debt soars to $31 million (Via Los Angeles Times)
No wonder Sen. Hillary Clinton was so late filing her required campaign financial reports Tuesday night. Her political team didn’t want the shocking news in it to overshadow her lopsided thumping of Sen. Barack Obama in Kentucky.
Now comes the morning after, pay-up time. Clinton’s campaign debt has now soared to nearly $31 million, according to numbers crunched early this morning by The Times’ campaign finance guru, Dan Morain.
She added another $9.5 million in unpaid bills to venders this past month alone, pushing her total debt to venders and herself to the new astronomical figure, about a 50% debt increase in one month.
According to a campaign release put out Tuesday evening as election returns revealed her big win in Kentucky and loss in Oregon, Clinton raised "approximately $22 million" from other people in April. The release also touted that $10 million had poured in within 48 hours of another lopsided Clinton victory over Obama, that one in Pennsylvania, and said it was the second best fundraising month of her entire campaign.
But the number collected is actually closer to $21 million and the release also neglected to mention that she spent $28.9 million, nearly $8 million more than she took in. She used personal loans to make up part of the difference. She also delayed payments to consultants. Including the $9.5 million in unpaid bills from April, she owes consultants and other venders $19.5 million.
Not to mention the total $11.4 million she has loaned herself.
You know, I just thought about it, and this is totally mind boggling… Hillary Clinton owes as much money as Barack Obama raised last quarter. Good Lord. 
All this, so she might be able to score a V.P. Spot on his ticket. I tend to believe that when Carly Simon wrote that song, you know the one about being vain, she was writing it about Hillary. 
I’m just saying……..
Update: The following Update was posted to this article…:
(*UPDATE: Due to a mathematical error, Hillary Clinton’s loans to herself were added twice in the calculation of this item. Her total debts are about $20 million, not $31 million. A corrected item will be published shortly.)
You can read the updated version, by going here.
The following might actually qualify as the lamest spin on a news story, ever….
The Kool-Aid Drinking, Knee Jerk Right is now dismissing Barack Obama’s 75.000+ turn out in Oregon as bogus.
These tone deaf, torture apologists, are saying that the ONLY reason that these people turned out, was to see a group called "The Decemberists". An independent rock group.
I mean, I have been around quite a while, and I have heard quite the deal of spin in my day, Hillary Clinton’s latest being a perfect example as of late. But this stuff here is about the stupidest, that I have heard in a long while.
I mean, this is what the Democrats have to run against, people that cannot provide a reasoned answer to Barack Obama’s message of change and hope and so, the conservatives will stoop to smears and lies and outright stupidity?
If this is what they’re planning for the General, they deserve to get their preverbal asses handed to them in November.
You know, If I had a dollar for every time, some idiot news outlet, who was seeking ratings, published a bogus story, saying Bush was going to attack Iran. I’d be rich, very rich.
The Article: White House denies Army Radio report on plan to attack Iran (Via Jerusalem Post
The White House on Tuesday flatly denied an Army Radio report that claimed US President George W. Bush intends to attack Iran before the end of his term. It said that while the military option had not been taken off the table, the Administration preferred to resolve concerns about Iran’s push for a nuclear weapon "through peaceful diplomatic means."
I mean, really? Are people just that stupid that they will Blog on every drip of news that comes out of the nozzle of the Main Stream Media’s faucet?
I can see why now, that MSM hates Blogs, there’s just no ethical standards amongst these people.
A word of wise to you guys, if it doesn’t pass the smell test, don’t print it!
Here’s the list of gullible people that printed this unfounded story: Firedoglake, The Hill’s Blog Briefing Room, Think Progress, Wonkette, God-o-Meter, Israel Matzav. The major exception being Blogs of War who, like me, says the story doesn’t pass the smell test.
Update: Hello to all the readers from Memeorandum, who finally added me back to the list of blogs to scan! yippie!

The Article: Obama Warns GOP ‘Lay Off My Wife’ (Via ABCNEWS)
The Republicans seem to have come to the same conclusion and a GOP Internet campaign in Tennessee has an ad featuring Michelle Obama’s comments during the long Democratic campaign that "for the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country."
Michelle Obama was asked about the ad on "GMA," but her husband said, "Let me just interject on this."
"The GOP, should I be the nominee, I think can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record," Obama said. "I’ve been in public life for 20 years. I expect them to pore through everything that I’ve said, every utterance, every statement. And to paint it in the most undesirable light possible. That’s what they do."
"But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable," he said.
Obama praised his wife’s patriotism and said that for Republicans "to try to distort or to play snippets of her remarks in ways that are unflattering to her I think is just low class … and especially for people who purport to be promoters of family values, who claim that they are protectors of the values and ideals and the decency of the American people to start attacking my wife in a political campaign I think is detestable."
Here’s a wake up call for you, Barry.
You don’t like your BITCH being talked about, then keep your damn BITCH at home! 
When are people going to wake up and see what this Marxist tool for what he really is?
This story here has been on the Meme reader for about a day now. I mean, what the hell?
Some idiot Democrat senator has decided that because John McCain comes from a linage of Military men, that he is "scary".
Now, I’m not a big fan of the Politics that got us into this quagmire in Iraq, and the money it is costing this Nation, but you know, I get a little ticked, when I hear some sissy liberal, spouting off at the pie hole like this.
John McCain might not be the best idea for the White House, because he’s so stinking close to Bush, with his Neo-Conservatism and all, and because of his idiotic Liberal stance on Illegal Immigration. But gosh darn it, he’s a heck of a lot more qualified, I feel, to be President, than that Marxist Negroid or that closet Lesbian that are running for President. (Yes, I did say that, and I’m damn proud of it! 
)
I mean, really, if this is the best that the Democrat Party can throw at John McCain, they’re going to lose and lose hard.
As expected, the right is highly pissed and rightly so, and the Left is playing the echo chamber role. It’s quite the read, go check it out.
Idiot Liberals, what will they think of next?
