Heavy Metal in Baghdad (Literally) (Or, Wait, Not Literally)
This looks interesting.
Show ‘em How It’s Done, Jon
Thank you, Jon Stewart.
The most amazing thing about McCain’s choice of Palin, however, is this. Even if you concede that Obama lacks experience, he’ll have Biden there if he needs advice. They’re a team, right? If Palin ever needs McCain’s advice, it’ll be because McCain is dead.
Let that sink in.
Always the Nice Guy
John Stewart keeps emphasizing that the Democrats aren’t going to win by being nice.
But they always are. Here’s a screen shot of the McCain website blog post on Palin’s speech. The very first comment: isn’t that nice? Aren’t Obama supporters nice? Makes you feel all fuzzy inside. Good luck, Senator McCain!
(They need to fix their HTML–the comments went way of the screen to the right.)
The Education of Debra Bartoshevich
It’s as though a lack of forethought were required to be in the McCain camp. Debra Bartoshevich, a pro-choice, ex-Democrat PUMA, has made a commercial for McCain. It turns out she thought McCain was pro-choice. D’oh!
Going back to 1999, John McCain did an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle saying that overturning Roe v. Wade would not make any sense, because then women would have to have illegal abortions.
Thing is, Debra isn’t wrong. McCain did give that interview, and did say those things. So is Debra stupid or just uninformed? Either way, it’s pretty pathetic. I wonder if she’s going to back-paddle on this. I’ll keep an eye on Debra and the other SHREWs PUMAs.
