"Upper Left Purple" Democrat

Goodbye, Ralph Nader [UPDATED]

And don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

When I first saw this I said "I hate giving kudos to FOX" - but that isn't true.  It's nice to see that their folks have some common decency.

Ralph?  Don't ever cross my path again.

McCain in Tampa - A Lonely Rally

Crossposted from the Motley Moose

John McCain passed through Tampa today, stopping at the 65,000 seat Raymond James stadium.

It was closed.

But wait!  There was a rally in a field across the street setup for him with an overflow area for the burgeoning crowds of Red State Floridians.  

The overflow area was empty.

Breathe In. Breathe Out.

In with the good air.  Out with the bad.

Ommmmmmm.

Photo Essay: Obama Rally - Sarasota, Florida, Oct 30, 2008

Crossposted from the Motley Moose)

Barack Obama came to Sarasota Florida yesterday for an intimate gathering with about 15,000 people.

I volunteered and had the honor of assisting the elderly and disabled into the stadium, keeping them all hydrated and otherwise fussing over them.

John McCain Betrayed the Man Who Saved His Life

Crossposted from The Motley Moose

We hear a lot about John McCain's military record.  Most often we are hearing about it from John McCain, unless Sarah Palin is telling us how much he doesn't like to talk about it.

Apparently there is one part he doesn't like to talk about, and that's how he was saved from drowning and being beaten to death by Mr. Mai Van On.

Troopergate: It's Not Just Illegal, it's Amateur

Crossposted from The Motley Moose

The Palin Fail on abuse of power and ethics violation is a matter of record now.  A non-partisan legislative council convicted her of those charges.  The McCain machine response is that she wins because she does not face certain censure and impeachment due to her violations, only potential censure and impeachment.  They - and most of the media - have missed the point.

The Palin administration has been convicted of rank amateurism.  If this is the "executive experience" she touts, we are better off hiring an experienced executive crook like Ken Lay.

At least one person in the media didn't miss that.

Palin Failin' Alaska's Poor

Crossposted from The Motley Moose

Mudflats has a piece on Sarah Palin's unmitigated failure to do anything for the grinding poverty of Alaska's rural citizens.  Josh, a former teacher in rural Alaska, writes:

We became very close with a family in our village that had a child drown in a steel container of raw sewage. Let me say that again. They had a child drown in a steel container of raw sewage. Their child was simply outside playing and since there is no playground equipment for the kids to play on, they play on anything, often things too dangerous for children. In this case it was something commonly referred to as a "honey bucket." This is a steel container where house sewage is dumped since there is no indoor plumbing.
