Barack Obama is now saying that he wants to expand President Bush’s horrific “faith-based initiative” program. In case that sentence isn’t clear enough for you, I’m against the very idea of the government supporting faith-based anything.
From the New York Times:
[Obama] thus embraced the heart of a program, established early in the [...]
I’ve finally figured out what it is about John McCain’s “100 year” statement concerning Iraq. Here’s the video of the comment, in case you’re just lost about what I mean.
As McCain’s defenders rightly point out, he isn’t calling for a hundred years of war in Iraq. No, he only wants to stay in [...]
During the last two Presidential elections, we heard a lot about “swing states”. Florida and Ohio were the two big ones, but Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania made it in the consideration, along with a few others. But I think the winner may actually be decided in the states along the Mississippi-Ohio River. [...]
Feel free to add a caption of your own.
“I am here today with my friend, Charlie Crist, Governor of Florida, and Harvey, a six-foot tall invisible rabbit.”
Well, not exactly. Barack Obama has finally wrapped up the Democratic nomination, but Hillary Clinton refuses to give up the lime-light. Clinton says she is ready to serve as the VP, but her own super-delegate pick-up of the day (you gotta wonder what’s going on in his mind) is on the record:

I think it was Wednesday night when my wife and I watched the movie Recount (I’m not sure as to the actual day - it isn’t really important and ON DEMAND means that the actual scheduled show-time is irrelevant). Actually, I got up and left in the middle of it and took some books [...]
Senator John McCain stepped off of the False-Outrage Express today to launch one of the most reprehensible political attacks of the campaign. It went like this:
“And I will not accept from Senator Obama, who did not feel it was his responsibility to serve our country in uniform, any lectures on my regard for those [...]
If you’ve heard anything from Hillary Clinton; then you’ve heard that Bill Clinton didn’t wrap up the nomination until June of 1992. Unfortunately for Hillary, this isn’t 1992.
Entering 1992, we had an incumbent President with high approval ratings seeking re-election. That played a strong part in keeping the field clear of strong candidates [...]
Now that the media seems to have gotten the memo that nothing Hillary Clinton can do will give her the nomination, it’s time to move on to speculating as to who Barack Obama will pick as his Vice-President. Given the specific rhetoric of the primary, I don’t think we’ll see a Obama-Clinton ticket. [...]
I know everyone is hanging on Hillary v. Barack - but I’m just sick of it. The only way Clinton can win is if 100% of the vote in Florida and Michigan is counted and if that happens, then you better hold onto your hat because the next Presidential primary is going to be [...]
