How John McCain Could Easily Get My Vote (and win the election)

Put on an eyepatch, appear everywhere he goes with a whiskey bottle, and scream into the camera, "Barak's terrorist detector is craaaap. Will someone shut off that gods damned MUSIC????"


That's the only frakkin' thing that will work. And he's cylon enough to know it. Is he man enough to do it?

Congratulations, Barack...but I don't think it's going to happen.

Here's my prediction...it is one I've made several times over the last four years.

Bush isn't going to leave office.

I'm terrified that there is going to be a major terror attack of such significance that martial law will be declared, elections suspended, the Constitution suspended, Congress dismissed.

The legal groundwork for that has already been laid:

Or we will invade Iran, and then see the above.

Call me paranoid if you like, but that's what I really think is likely to happen. Is he acting like he's running out of time in office?

I think that if Hillary had gotten the nomination, like Rush Limbaugh and the other right wing spin machines were working so hard to make happen, then my prediction would not happen...it would just be a quiet continuation of the old regime under a new name....but Obama surprised everyone.

To be more accurate, the American People surprised everyone and voted for this man in such overwhelming numbers that he actually is going to be our nominee. Nobody, especially Hillary, understood just how fed up the majority of Americans are with this Administration, and the people who helped them do what they've done to us and the world. People like Hillary Clinton, whose votes on the war, the telecom companies, and so on simply couldn't be forgotten.

And now, all bets are off. With Obama stumping on the radical notion of advocating a foreign policy that involves actual negotiation and real diplomacy...the neo-con hand will be forced.

Don't get me wrong...a Bush dictatorship isn't what I'm hoping for. I'd love for the candidate that I actually support to win the election, take office without incident, and change the catastrophic course that this nation has been on since the Rhenquist Five handed over our nation to this evil, wretched man and his evil, wretched, greedy supporters.

But what about the last eight years inspires hope?

Scotty Confirms Archie Was Right All Along

Long time readers...and there actually are a few...will know that from the beginning I've said that it was Bush himself who leaked the Valarie Plame stuff.

I've said all along that he is vindictive enough, vengeful enough, and has enough arrogance to not care about the laws designed to restrict and limit what a President can do while in office.

Now, in his book, Scott McClellan states that the President himself was involved in selectively declassifying intelligence...including intelligence used to discredit Joe Wilson.

I repeat the cry for justice.

I repeat the call for impeachment.

This President hates this country, hates the Constitution, hates our laws, hates our traditions, hates our system of government.

How can even 20% of this country still love him for it?
