Odds and Ends

Seriously folks, I'd love some feedback! In the meantime, a lot of big news today...

Sen. Stevens found guilty "of all seven counts in his federal corruption trial." Good luck with that reelection, Ted! Seriously, Republicans are gonna kick so much ass in their Senate races next week [/sarcasm].

Ugh, there goes the liberal media again, playing the race card: "Law enforcement agents have broken up a plot by two neo-Nazi skinheads to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 88 black people, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives said Monday."

Meanwhile, in a super non-related story, a McCain/Palin supporter (from the pro-America parts of America, no doubt!) screams out "And he's a n***er!" at a rally of Sarah Palin, who of course makes no effort to acknowledge/rebut the remark. Look out, she's gone rogue!

And the Rev. Wright card is finally played in three key swing states.

John McCain enters supreme desperation mode, stating today that he hates that President Bush guy. Speaking about himself and Obama, he said "We both disagree with President Bush on economic policies." I hope for his sake that most Americans get amnesia over the next week.

McCain on keeping nuclear power safe... meh.

News of the Middle East!! The U.S. military threatens to "shut down military operations and other vital services" in Iraq if their government doesn't approve the troop agreement we are demanding. We made democracy there!!! Also, we decided that bombing Syria was a good idea (October surprise?). And we bombed Pakistan too, but that's old hat by now.

Finally, the economic bailout plan continues to grow in size and scope.
