Democratic Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones injured in a one car accident…

This came across twitter this afternoon. This story has not even reach national levels yet. CNN is now trying to confirm the story.

(H/T to BlogsOfWar)

Via Fox Cleveland:

U.S. Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones remains unconscious Wednesday morning
after suffering an aneurysm while driving on Tuesday night.

According to a press release from Tubbs Jones office, the five term Congresswoman
was admitted to Huron Hospital after suffering an aneurysm while
driving her car in Cleveland Heights.

According to the release, Tubbs Jones condition has stabilized and she is receiving the best care available.

According to a spokesperson with the Cleveland Heights Police Department,
approximately 9:00 pm on Tuesday a Cleveland Heights Police Officer
observed Tubbs Jones car traveling eastbound on Mayfield Road, weaving
from side to side. At Lee Road the car turned left and the officer
followed. The car slid off the road into a grassy area near the
intersection of Lee Road and Monticello Boulevard.

Police tell Fox 8’s Todd Meany that the congresswoman was transported to Huron
Hospital in East Cleveland after what they are describing as a “one-car
accident.”

A statement from Tubbs Jones’ office indicated that Tuesday’s condition followed a full day of activity, including planning for an upcoming forum on electoral reform, scheduled for
September 4, 2008 at Cleveland State University. Congresswoman Tubbs Jones was scheduled to travel to Denver on August 24, 2008 to attend the Democratic National Convention as a superdelegate

You know Politics is one thing, but real life is another. This woman is/was a fighter, a real fighter. She would get on MSNBC and go toe to toe with Tucker Carlson. She once told Tucker Carlson to “Get a life”, live on the air. Which I thought was absolutely hilarious. It is a sad day in politics and in the black Community.

There is a good possibility that she might not be dead. Someone blew it somewhere…

Obama V.P. Speculation

Normally, I wouldn’t care. But seeing it’s the big thing right now. I’ll jump on the bandwagon here.

MSNBC Says it’s Biden:

Within the last few hours I’ve spoken with two
of the finalists for the role of Barack Obama’s running-mate, and to
two other sources who are close to the process.

My bottom line
is this: Barring a big surprise or last-minute change of heart, the
choice is likely to be Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, chairman of the
Foreign Relations Committee.

He is a
lively and feisty if unpredictable campaigner with working-class roots
and a street-level feel for the hot spots of the globe — which he can
use to go toe-to-toe with Sen. John McCain.

“If I had to bet my life on it, I’d bet it is Joe,” said one of the other contenders.

Said another, “Barack is moving toward a seasoned Beltway type, and that probably means Biden.”

And a source personally close to Obama simply said “Biden makes the most sense.”

Biden would make sense, he’s got the foreign policy and he would make one hell of a good attack dog.

This Blogger says that it’s Kathleen Sebelius:

We have a credible lead that Barack Obama will be announcing Kathleen Sebelius for Vice President / VP.

Our sources work within an ad agency that is hired by the Obama
campaign, and have noted that the vast majority of the discussions
there are regarding material logistics in terms of Kathleen on the vice
president ticket. Now until this is verified please file it as rumor,
however our sources on this are not bad.. and have yet to be proven
wrong.

Our source noted “It will get a women on the ticket that shares the
same views as Obama” a reference to many of the Hillary supporters..

Then of course we had to do some research.

We held some general opinions prior to this little research project.
One of them being that they wouldn’t have multiple domain providers, it
becomes a hassle.. so the chances are they used the same registrar.

He goes to show that the Obama campaign bought the domain OBAMASEBELIUS.COM. Kathleen Sebelius would make sense as well, as she would possibly bring Hillary voters to the ticket. Except for the idiotic PUMA group. Which has all of about 250 people.

Other people being discussed are Bill Richardson, who would bring some serious foreign policy credentials to the Obama campaign. (Despite what some idiotic Republicans say about that…)

Either way, I believe no one is going to have the actual “inside track” on whom Obama will pick, obviously it will be someone that will help and not hurt his campaign.

Roman Catholic Thug Bill Donohue wants to control free speech.

This is stupid beyond words.

Via Catholic League:

“The list of credentialed blogs include radical sites like The Daily Kos. Worse are blogs that feature anti-Catholic and obscene material. The two most offensive are Bitch Ph.D. and Towleroad.

“On the home page of Bitch Ph.D. there is a picture of two children: one of them is shown flashing his middle finger. Today’s lead post, which was written August 17, is called ‘Jesus Christ.’ It begins with, ‘I’m a really crappy Catholic who hasn’t been to mass in ages because most parishes around here ‘will’ insist on being aggressively anti-abortion….’ The writer then objects to some children’s toys on the grounds that they are more offensive than desecrating the Eucharist. The toys are actually balloons that have been made to depict Jesus in various poses, including a crucified Christ; one of these images shows Jesus with a penis. Several who commented on this image made patently obscene comments.

“Towleroad describes itself as ‘A Site with Homosexual Tendencies.’ Accordingly, it shows men in jock straps and underwear. It also has a post on Pope Benedict XVI that takes him to task for wearing a cape with ermine. Some of those who commented on this described the pope in a vile and profane way.

“Both of these blogs should be cut immediately from the list of credentialed sites. Neither functions as a responsible media outlet and both offend Catholics, as well as others. To allow them access to the Democratic National Convention sends a message to Catholics they will not forget. We look for Leah Daughtry, CEO of the Convention, to nix them ASAP.”

I tend to believe that Mr. Donohue might want to rethink his position on this, because insulting the Catholic Church is one thing, but suppression of free speech is another, especially in the Blogging world. This could backfire in the face of Bill and his band of idiots.

The Week in Review (Open Trackback)

Here’s my bi weekly open trackback posting…

The neighborhood had it’s yearly cookout. I ate good, a good time was had by all. It was a wee bit hot out for me. I couldn’t stay in that direct sunlight, My medication won’t let me, makes me sick. So, I was in and out all day.

Other than that, I had a good time.

In other news:

The magic one was caught in a lie.

I shared my thoughts on the CNN/Rick Warren dog and pony show last night.

I also took Allahpundit to task on his choice of words in a article he wrote, and in usual cowardly fashion, he deleted my trackback.

I also mentioned this week, that a blogger couple needs help.

I reported that Detroit’s Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick will stand trial for shoving a Wayne County officer. Who was just doing his job.

Howard Dean is an idiot, as always.

John McCain is not far behind himself.

I laid the smackdown on WorldNetDaily for their blantant stupidity.

I also condemned Rush Limbaugh for his rather idiotic remarks about John Edward’s wife.

…and that’s it for this Round up!

Here’s those trackbacks:

John McCain needs to brush up on his history

Via Think Progress

Well, he’s right, if forget the Gulf War, and Somalia, and the Rwandan Genocide, and the earlier war in Georgia, and the breakup of Yugoslavia and all the wars that spawned, and 9/11, and Afghanistan, and Iraq and North Korean nuclear testing, and the war in Lebanon, and Darfur.

Then again, what do you expect from a 70-something year old man?

Once again the hate you and folks like Hannity spew has caused another right wing nut to resort to violence.
What you do is nothing less than starting a riot and you should be held
accountable. You should be in jail. Your hate turns people to murder.

Hey Greg, If ol’ slant eyes here, ought to be in Jail, so the hell should I! Because I’m twice as mean, meaner that Malkin could ever friggin’ hope to be. You see, I do, what Malkin, Hannity, Limbaugh and rest of these Fox Noise hosebags won’t do. I call you for what you are, and that’s friggin’ Communist Liberals, who hate America and the values it was founded upon. So, if you want blame somebody, blame me, hell, I’m easy. I need the damn blog traffic any damn way, the revenue would be nice.

So, bring it on, I dare you.

Possibly one of the weakest responses to a situation…Ever

Okay, call me a cynic, call me a jerk, call me a… whatever… But this is just weak…

I mean, Bush essentially went out and said… “Bad Russia, Bad!” But offered absolutely no repercussions, if Russia continued to attack Georgia. No threats of invasion, nothing.

He could have done better, in my opinion. It just sounded weak.
