Why?

Why would anyone concerned about the economy in Ohio and West Virginia vote for Obama given his anti-coal position?

Whoopi Goldberg = Moron

cClick on the posts title to see her silly comment about being worried about becoming a slave again if McCain is elected from this morning's The View.  I might be more bothered about McCain's response since strict constructionism deals with the Constitution and its AMENDMENTS (such as the 13th that outlawed slavery).

What does Obama Cling to?

Click on the post above.  He has jettisoned his religion of 20 years (sort of), and I doubt he owns any guns.  Given that "real" Americans of the heartland are almost swooning for Palin and the McCain ticket now, what will Obama cling to?

Obama the Pig Farmer

Obama's ego is soooooooo big that he still doesn't get it about the pig and lipstick remark.  The crowd thought he was talking about Palin based on their reaction: much laughter at, if it was merely a descriptive line about policy, would NOT have been so "funny."  If he was really in tune with his audience, as Dennis Prager has pointed out, he would have immediately recognized is unintended faux pas and corrected the audience.  He did not.

So, is he clueless or did he really mean to attack Governor Palin?  Only Obama and God know.

What makes me think it might be a little bit of both was his outrageous defense of his remark on the Letterman show on Wednesday night, because he still reduces her to her makeup.  Hillary Clinton was right in the primaries: Obama and his campaign is sexist.

My Vote

The title of this post is a link to the CA SOS office and the official voter's guide for the Feb. election.

I voted absentee yesterday:

President - Mitt Romney
With Thompson out, Mitt is the best conservative alternative. Is he perfect? No, but let's face it, the only other person who has a shot at beating the Dems is Rudy, and his campaign maybe dead after Florida. McCain needs to be beaten.

Prop 91
Yes - stop redirecting infrastructure money for the roads.

Prop 92
No - poorly written. On top of that, we need to have a serious discussion on the role of Community Colleges. They should be Colleges, not grades 13 and 14 with silly community driven classes (the old basket weaving joke) added. Vocational education could be accommodated as a branch of CCs while the other branches actually have college rigor.

Prop 93
Yes - this will allow current legislators to extend their time in office. That is a good thing. In fact, term limits should be abolished completely. The current system has allowed lobbyists and staffers to become even more powerful. They are unelected, and their newly found power is undemocratic. The focus should be on reasonably created districts and not term limits.

Props 94 - 97
No - poorly written; non-gaming tribes could see significant reductions in funds received. I could care less about expansions, but I have no interest in awarding tribes who got lucky because Eisenhower created an interstate system. Rewrite and resubmit.
