could someone send a news flash to the media and the DEMS so that they are not more confused than normal when they go to the polls to vote in Nov. our ticket is McClain-Palin...not McClain- Bush...they seem to think Bush is on the ticket..

I do not understand these leftwing putzies and the leftwing smear media machine. If Palin is such a bad pick then why complain??? Dont they have more chance of winning is the opponent is a bad pick?? Why would these mentally diseased Democrats want a stronger Republican pick? I just dont get it. They should be dancing around and sure of victory but no, they seem to be scared to death.

How can your numbers possibly be true? I took this poll online late yesterday and Obama was ahead 60-40. The Republican spam squad obviously attacked and skewed your results overnight.

Sidebar: All Polls these days are vulnerable to online attacks that blur the picture, and thus, create absolutely bogus stats. Leave it to the Re-Geeks to spoil yet another cool, online communication tool. Republicans need to hire a "community organizer" to teach them who the online community really is and how we treat each other when it works.

Biden on the RNC: What do you talk about when you can%u2019t explain the last eight years of failure?

By: SilentPatriot

Biden gave a barnburner of a speech today in Langhorne, Pennsylvania, where he responded to some of the attacks lobbed at the Republican Convention. It just might have been more effective than his actual convention speech.

%u201CIt%u2019s not merely a lost job, it%u2019s a lost sense of identity. I don%u2019t think my Republican friends %u2014 and this is not your father%u2019s Republican party, by the way. So folks, when I listen to the parts of the Republican convention I can hear%u2026it%u2019s not what I heard, it%u2019s what I didn%u2019t hear. The silence of the Republican party was deafening. It was deafening on jobs, on health care, on the environment, on all the things that matter to the people in the neighborhood%u2019s I grew up in. Deafening! Their America is not the America I live in. They see something different than I see.

%u201CRick Davis, John%u2019s campaign manager, said %u2018this election is not about issues.%u2019 Everything I saw at the convention demonstrated that.

%u201CWhat do you talk about about when you have nothing to say? What do you talk about when you can%u2019t explain the last eight years of failure?%u201D

You people are beyond hope to buy the same horse three different times. Bush 2000, Bush 2004, McCain 2008. Listen to what McCain is saying, just what GWB told you, look at how McCain votes, the same as GWB 90% of the time. Look how this country is suffering and will continue to suffer under someone just like GWB.

The Same:

Bush and McCain have the same out-of-touch attitude

They have the same failure to understand the economy (see today''s story on the government having to seize Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac)

The same tax cuts to huge corporations and the wealthiest 1%

The same questionable ties to Lobbyist (Reformer?)

The same campaign team and speechwriters

The same plan to stay in Iraq to the tune of $10, 000,000,000,000 a month when that money is needed here at home

In McCain''s own words, he proudly stated that he has voted with Bush over 90% of the time more than his Republican colleagues.

Remember that old definition of insanity, to keep doing the same thing and expecting the results to change.

FYI - the plane sold on eBay for a profit, was neither sold on eBay or for a profit. I wonder if they knew that?

Why don''''t you just write an illustrated comic book! I think it would be easier for you to target and market to a crowd that cares about your long winded, politically motivated, false rubbish. I understand about getting the word out but you are soap box windbag.

And you are the proverbial lost soul, I''ll take my life over yours. Stay with the greed and hate and wallow in the misery that it brings you.

Sarah Palin the %u2018Earmark Queen%u2019 of AK Left Wasilla $20 Million in Debt

By: Bill W. @ 6:00 PM - PDT

After finishing as a runner up for Miss Alaska 1984, Sarah Palin went on to be crowned the state%u2019s Queen of Earmarks and its Empress of Fiscal Irresponsibility.

Wonk Room: Sarah Palin: Earmark Queen Of The Earmark State

In 2000, Sarah Palin, as mayor of the Alaskan town of Wasilla, hired a Washington lobbyist to secure federal earmarks for her community.

This is not totally atypical in her state. Alaska%u2019s government receives more money per capita in federal earmark money than any other state, despite being the only state in the union with no income tax and no sales tax. They fund their government primarily with petroleum money, and recently distributed oil profits to its citizens in the form of rebate checks.

But even in her heavily earmarked state, Sarah Palin was the earmark queen.

Regardless of any other political leanings I may have, John McCain simply SCARES me. He just seems like an angry bitter man that''s ready to explode. See this video from a former POW who tells it like it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KjsEs46C70

Trust me they won''t get it, but that ''it'' is what is missing from their lives.

I agree with most of what you say.

Bigots are typically people who believe themselves to be losers. And, we''''ll never be rid of bigots. The best we can do is ignore them so far as possible.

The I''''net has given them a brand new opponent to spew their hateful vitriol unimpeded. And, challenging them is pointless since their only real goal is to demonstrate their self-hatred by posting the same type of comments over & over.

When someone claims to hate other people for no specific reason he is really saying he hates himself.

Bigots mainly hate themselves due to the fact they are losers.

They live only from their Ego never acknowledging and ignore their Soul, they can acquire more and more and it will never bring them any true peace or happiness. It never will.


The Ego versus the Soul

We''re so engaged in doing things to achieve purposes of outer value (Ego) that we forget that the inner value, the rapture that is associated with being alive, is what it''s all about (Soul)

Every soul is on a journey -- a journey of discovery, awakening and realization of the true nature of existence.

The journey starts in darkness. On the soul''s journey, darkness represents ignorance or lack of understanding of the soul''s true nature. In our ignorance, we perceive ourselves as separate from the broader whole, as finite individuals with particular identities.

This illusion of duality leads us to pursue pleasure and avoid pain, seek out good and resist bad, yearn for success and deny failure, a process which causes anxiety and suffering as we attempt to protect and glorify our individual ego.

Through some alchemy or grace, maybe through reading a book or speaking to a friend, or perhaps through our own questioning of "why am I here", we start the awakening process.

We get an inkling of something more. We may start to notice a witnessing attention which sits behind the activity of our daily lives. We may also begin to question the usefulness of our ego and our logical mind, sensing something greater, wiser, more intuitive and profound brewing inside us.
