It was Biden not Bayh.

Yeah, I should have known that Obama's campaign couldn't handle the secret too long. But what secret are we talking about?

The news reported a printer in Kansas having already printed thousands of these Bayh/Obama bumper stickers. Why?

Perhaps, Obama figured out, that my analysis was correct? I mean, even Reverend Wright reads my blogs, so why not the Messiah? ;>)

Or maybe Bayh stupidly turned it down.

Either way, Biden's comments about willing running as McCain's VP and that Obama wasn't qualifed to run as president, only 1 year ago, adds to the thrill!

But at least you got me on this one. Now take a look at this new blog Item I'm going to post. And Prove me wrong there.

BTW: McCain has not said he would not run for reelection. They disputed it and I'm not sure where the rumor started. Be bad for him if he did though, it would draw more attention to his age and senility.

Viewers question credential design

KUSA - Some viewers contacted 9NEWS Saturday, questioning the design of the credentials to see Sen. Barack Obama accept the Democratic Party's presidential nomination at INVESCO Field at Mile High. The viewers say with the stars and blue field in the lower left corner, it looks like an upside down American flag. Published flag etiquette states the stars should always be displayed in the upper left corner. An upside down flag represents an international symbol of extreme distress.

Anyone with half of a brain, with any amount of patriotism, could see that design and see that obviously this design is wrong.

How could they let this little insignificant design go unnoticed?
Because Patriotism, love of Country, of our American flag, has never crossed a liberal's mind.

What the Democratic Convention is focused on is the color of the food that they will be serving, literally. Whether the grapes are organic, whether the paper plates are recycled paper, and where to hide the arrested protesters and homeless people in Denver.

Another sign, that the party that would elect a man whose own wife, has no pride of country in her heart, is terribly wrong for our nation.

I'm not against flag burning, or any vulgar use of the flag as protected speech. Something liberals love to do. Not because it doesn't make me sick to my stomach. But because John McCain said, that while he was being tortured in Vietnam,-- and while Obama was going to an elite muslim elementary school in Indonesia, his captors would show him pictures of protesters, burning our American flag. They did this to mentally torture him. Instead, McCain said that it proved what a wonderful country we have, where idiots, like the liberals, can descrate the American Flag, and to do so with the Freedoms that that Flag has given them.

So let the DNC get red, white and blue, toilet paper, let they disgrace everything that is patriotic in America, because that's why America is so great. We let idiots have their say, hell, we even let them vote for affirmative Action presidential candidates too.

...and what does waving a backwards flag represent?

Stars and Stripes for Dummies

Wrapping yourself or your cat in a flag means you are letting our country's reputation cover you for your dastardly deeds!

The current administration has wrapped themselves in our flag for nearly eight years.

The more the hypocritical conservatives harang every little deed by a nut about the flag and badges, the more the idiots will stretch out the jokes!

As predicted by many this week, Obama chose the experience and more colorful personality in Biden over the other wanna-be's. Poor Shillary wasn't really in the running at all which isn't too surprising but I'm sure it will make some of the Hillary women more upset and they'll make more noise.

Between Huckabee and Hillary, both parties have their own version of sore loser to contend with. Both have "demands" and both insist on getting "respect" for their causes that they think only they are capable of leading. Both need to fade into oblivion, grow up, and shut up.

I thought the rub given to Chet Edwards was the second thing Obama was trying to accomplish throughout the process and definitely did. A lot of people who had not much idea of Chet "I'm not John" Edwards now realize he's one of the most powerful members of the House serving on both Budget and Appropriations and a guy who has been a faithful moderate-to-liberal Dem for quite a while. In Texas of all places and over Crawford, home of the W. He's also survived a re-districting that looked designed to get him defeated.

Evan Bayh might be the post-Obama future but for now is the experience and combative nature of Biden being used to balance out the Obama inexperience and reserved-so-I-don't-say-something-I-want-to-take-back-later nature style of the top man.

Warren will vote for McCain in spite of what he said. He wouldn't know anyway if who he voted for was an adulterer or not---would he just simply believe them? All BS, you know. So will most of the conservatives.

Including me, an Independent. I like John, not necessarily his temperament, honesty, or party.

He is a terrible speaker and unconvincing (so is Bush) and he does say obvious fibs, but he does have sufficient dedication to carry him through without going "BONKERS!"

Because Obama was thoughtful in coming to his decision, assessing the Sunni-Shia-Kurd conflict and assessing how the invasion of Iraq would affect the battle against terrorists that somehow is construed that his decision about starting a war was not profound? I don’t see it Richard.

The neo-cons had long ago decided to invade Iraq, years before 9/11. Obama’s understanding of Saddam and Iraq was exactly right as shown in his speech months before the invasion:

“But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history.”

His speech also showed his knowledge of the consequences of the war:

“I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda.”

All of this turned out to be correct. His strategic analysis was far superior to the neo-con’s vision which, just like Obama warned, was a cynical and ideological agenda foisted off on the American people by a concerted effort of lies and malfeasance by a group of people who were willing to have our soldiers and country pay any price to try to bring their warped fantasies to fruition; just as long as they personally had nothing at risk.

Was Obama prescient? Of course not. There were many of us warning of the consequences which were so evident and so totally ignored.

A blind man could have seen it with a stick.

Unfortunately for Obama, the Iraq War is not going to help him with his election. It got him the nomination, but it ain't gonna help in the general election.

You said he was being "thoughtful." Lets see, to be thoughtful, it would seem that somehow one had a "thought". This would require that he have information in which to base his "thoughts" upon.

Unlike Hillary, Kerry, and Edwards, et.al., Barack did not read all of the intelligence reports that lead up to the War. So he "thought" about the War and without knowing what most of the house and Senate knew, he made his own decision. Yeah, right. He was drawing to an inside straight and got lucky on the River.

But think for a second Jeff, what the world thinks about America.

If we had left Sadamm in power, allowed him to ignore the first 18 UN resolutions and by now it would have increased to 25 resolutions at least. Then consider Russia's invasion of Georgia and the UN resolutions that will come from that.

At some point, at some time, we either act upon rogue nations or we sit back and wait for another terrorist plot that had been incubating for years under the safe harbor of despots like Sadamm and Afghanistan.

But hey, I noticed you didn't comment on the Warren Debate. I know why. Because it was so obvious that your guy not only can't handle a job that is over his pay grade, he's already over his own pay grade.

And don't watch the polls either, they are not reliable and will change repeatedly, especially when the conventions come about.

But until then read the polls and weep, because enough Americans saw your Boy Toy King's answers in that debate, and today McCain now has a 5 point lead. Thats a 12 point difference in just under a couple of months.

If he is so thoughtful, as to suggest he's not capable of making a decision about abortion because its out of his pay grade, then what else is? Dealing with Russia? Dealing with the Economy? Dealing with Social Security?

Symbolism over Substance has been the Democrat mantra for years.

One last thing. Barack is supposed to be about CHANGE. Well look at "his" convention. Three Clintons, your dad, and a whole host of old democrats are going to speak. How is that about Change?

Did you see him studder when he mentioned that Justice Thomas would not have been his nominee, because he was not "experie...." not "qualified" to serve. He figured that out real fast, but couldn't stop from saying it. Without a Teleprompter, your boy is way above his own pay grade.

If you can remember back until the war started then you may remember that I too opposed it. Like Obama I did not have access to the intelligence reports and yet I arrived at the same conclusion for the same reasons. At the time all of the weapons inspectors were feverishly working to inspect every possible site that the Bush intelligence system was suggesting. The war was preordained by the neo-cons way before 9/11 and as virtually every official now out of the government has attested in their books, the Bush administration was fabricating intelligence to justify the war which they had already decided to fight. That is why they pulled the weapons inspectors out of Iraq before they could finish their work. It would have increasingly difficult to justify the war if the weapons inspectors had found nothing by September 2003, 6 months after the war started. Therefore it was necessary to terminate the inspections and invade as precipitously as possible.

I saw it and obviously so did Obama. As you may remember, at the time we were calling for another 5000 inspectors to be sent in; a demand utterly rejected by the administration because they knew and we knew that another 5000 inspectors finding nothing would end their neo-con dream of invading Iraq.

It is utterly astonishing to find neo-cons like you suddenly concerned about what the world thinks about America. Following the political guidance of your fellow travelers has resulted in alienation of our allies, isolation of the United States, providing a training ground for terrorism, cost thousands of American lives and wasted an unimaginable amount of money.

And for what? Even if all your fantasy imaginings came true all you would have accomplished was to turn Iraq into a Shia state aligned with Iran which is exactly what is happening.

Obama didn’t need access to fabricated intelligence reports. All he had to do was give the situation a thoughtful analysis to come to the same conclusion that every administration before this one came to, which was as Obama said before the war started:

“I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda.”

Because for Obama, he said this was "the" most gut wrenching decisions he had to make. Why? because he said, he would pay the cost of his decision "politically."

Pay a cost "politically?" You've got to be kidding. He was a shoo in in Illinois for the Senate.(If only Jeri Ryan's divorce attorney hadn't put the fact that her husband wanted to have a 'three way' while visiting Paris, then maybe, he might have had some competition.

The fact is, Hillary, Edwards and every other Democrat "paid" that cost, visa via Obama's constant attacks on them. He made the decision out of political gamesmanship. Nothing more nothing less.

The fact is with Russia rattling their sabers over Georgia and now Poland, I'm sure that America has looked at these two candidates and decided that they don't want a "community organizer" to defend us in the National scene.

I predicted it months ago. Your Messiah peaked too early. Now we are getting to know him and we really aren't finding things to like about him, instead, we are finding a lot that is wrong with him. I wanted him to drain all of Hillary's money in the primaries, but I gave the Dems too much credit. They actually did let this moron get the nomination.

BTW: have you ever read the Harvard Law Journal's articles authored by him? He was the editor in chief. What do you think about his writing skills?

Now Please Repeat After me.

"Thank God President McCain is handling this Russian Crisis. He is the man for the job."

(This is what Wesley Clark said about George Bush after 911 when asked if he is sorry Gore wasn't in charge.)

"Thank God President McCain is handling this Russian Crisis. He is the man for the job."

I'd love to know exactly how you think McCain is going to handle the Russian crisis.

I predict that he and Bush will do exactly nothing of any consequence. Empty words and threats mean nothing and when a bluff is called you are not stronger for having made it.

Jeff, we live in a world that has walls and those walls need to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? Barack Obama? Yeah right.

John McCain has a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Sadamm, Putin, the guy from Iran, Hezbolah, and the terrorists in Palestine, and then you have the AUDACITY of Dopes by cursing the Marines; (calling them Nazi's and baby killers, while spitting on them when they return from war,) you have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what John McCain knows: that American deaths, while tragic, probably saved lives and that McCain's existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties you want McCain on that wall, you need McCain on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use then as the backbone of a life trying to defend something. You use them as a punchline at Hollywood Parties with Hollywood Stars, Your leader, Barack demands that we respect his form of patriotism, merely because he has the right to disavow anything and everything under the Sun that Liberals determine is politically correct.

John McCain has neither the time nor the inclination to explain himself to a racist loving/terrorist admirering/Marxist mentoring,Grandmother dissing, wet behind the ears, egomaniac who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom McCain provides and then questions the manner in which he provides it.

I would rather you just said "thank you," and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest that you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Barack Obama is like a Hit Movie. We first hear about it on Commericals, then get excited when we are waiting in line, listening to all of the commentary about what a great movie it will be. The problem is, no one has ever seen the movie. But the excitement rises to a fever pitch, when all of a sudden, we begin seeing trailers. Those trailers start painting a different picture of who he is. Until finally, we see the movie, and although we see many in the crowd swooning from this Messiah and Hollywood Megastar. We just don't understand why there was such a big build up to this "B" class movie.

Fortuntely, the truth comes out, of those that have watched the movie, and the superstar sensation that preceded the showing, is getting sort of boring and tiresome.

Did you ever see Costner's movie "Waterworld", or Hoffman and Beatty's movie "Ishtar?"

Well the same is happening now. Instead of the Audacity of Hope, its the going to be called "The Ignorance of the Dopes."
,

Has everyone nearly gone bonkers on here?
You obviously have Obama mixed up with some other minorities that you don't like! I'm not voting for him because he needs to prove himself a few more years, and that only.

All this "walls" and standing guard duty by Jeff doesn't seem to fit here! I know Jeff and he would make a terrible wall sitter!

Communism is pretty dead by the way, but socialism is on it's way from both parties!

You really do sound disturbed--in some ways.

Yeah, yeah. We all know you can be nasty but does this ranting mean that you can't explain exactly how you think McCain is going to handle the Russian crisis? As I suspected.

Reminds me of 1979. Nothing of consequence would be better than a national debacle.

Pretty weak criticism of Obama here. I will not vote for Obama but I will defend him when he is correct.
I think that he would not have invaded Iraq if he had been President then.
He would have continued in Afghanistan and cleaned it out along with Pakistan.
He would have continued the no-fly zones to control Saddam until the UN finally stepped in and occupied the place.

We have made no progress in Iraq. The place is a total disaster. We will be there in some fashion forever.
It was a terrible mistake.

Bonkers, Surely you don't believe that.
You're right on one account though, Obama would not have went into Iraq, he wouldn't go into any country including Afghanistan or Pakistan. Obama would have waited on the U. N. (Ultimate Nobodies) and he still would be waiting today. Talk is all he would have done and all he will do if he becomes president. Hell, that's all he's done since he first started running for political office.
