John McCain is a dirty old man! 

I have a theory that the choice of Governor Sarah Palin as the GOP nominee for vice president is a sign that John McCain has quite a fantasy developing about how his presidency would unfold.

Former Congressmen Warn Troops: As Senator He Abandoned American POWs Trapped in Indochina; as President He’ll Abandon You

Special to the U.S. Veteran Dispatch

“He [McCain] has told me several times over the years that the myth of live POWs was a cruel hoax on the families. He chaired hearings into the issue in the 1990s and found nothing. ‘The committee … pored over thousands of records and every claim of a sighting, no matter how outlandish,’ says Salter. ‘It was all untrue.’” Jonathan Alter, When Ross Perot Calls…, Newsweek.com January 16, 2008

IF THE “SHOE” DOESN’T FIT……

WHY IS PALIN WEARING IT?

It’s a real shame, Bart does a good job and tries very hard, but the incessant Hillary whining simply will not stop.  Do you people realize we are now in a general election cycle?  The primaries are over, she lost.

I do not hate Hillary.  I was one of the original supporters until I found John Edwards more appealing.  After he dropped out I again supported Hillary until the infamous Kyl-Lieberman amendment vote.  When will Democrats realize anything supported by Lieberman is a trap? I would argue being a Senator from NY hurt Hillary.  NY has a high Jewish population, many are members of AIPAC or JINSA or at least the powerful people are, aligned with the right wing Likud party.  They support the Iraq war and an attack on Iran.  (more…)

Sarah Palin: A Gidget for God’s Truth

Tuesday 09 September 2008

by: Steve Weissman, t r u t h o u t | Perspective

 “The Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation,” declared John McCain back in September 2007. With his vice-presidential pick of Governor Sarah Palin, he has found a winsome soul mate who is even more of a Christian nationalist, eager to use government to impose her religious views on the rest of us.

    Palin’s stance on abortion illustrates her approach. As she proudly declares, she sees the Bible as literally true, which leads her to believe that aborting a fetus is murder. That position contradicts our long history of common and statutory law. She then goes on to conclude that government should severely punish anyone who has an abortion or performs one, even in the case of rape or incest. She also opposes stem cell research.

More Than Half of Young Mothers Give Birth

Out of Wedlock

Sunday 07 September 2008

by: Karen Uhlenhuth, The Kansas City Star

Think of it as a new “normal” in American family life.

    After creeping slowly and steadily upward most of the last 50 years, the number of babies born to young unmarried women quietly crossed a troubling threshold in 2006. 

(UNDER THE NEOCON RELIGEOUS RIGHT, FAMILY VALUES WATCH!)

    For the first time in a half-century of record-keeping, a majority of babies born to women younger than 30 were out of wedlock.
