McCain promises change.  Change from 8 years of republican corruption, failed economic policies.  A change to . . . 4 more years of republican failure.   McCain helped create the financial disaster and now he wants you to vote for him.  He offered no solutions tonight, no plans, no details, only vague campaign slogans that he ripped-off from Obama.  Nice Union bashing by the way, too.

Weary investors in the United States received a further pummelling yesterday as data showed new unemployment claims at a near-five-year high last week, a leading fund manager gave warning that America faced a “financial tsunami” and key retailers released disappointing sales figures.

The mounting nervousness about America’s economy dragged down shares. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 344.60 points, or 3 per cent, to 11,188.20, and the S&P 500 closed down by 38.20 points, or 3.3 per cent, at 1,236.80 points.

Meanwhile, banks continue to collapse and borrow money.

Banks borrowed more over the past week from the Federal Reserve’s emergency lending program, while Wall Street firms took a pass for the fifth week in a row.

A Fed report released Thursday said commercial banks averaged $18.98 billion in daily borrowing over the past week. That compared with a daily average of $18.47 billion in the previous week.

In a perfect world, only the idiots who keep voting for these Republican losers would suffer from their failure, unfortunately that is not the case.  The Republicans have created a stunningly failed economy and have paved the way to the current financial crisis by failing to keep a close eye on the banks, lenders, and people borrowing money.  And now the Republicans come back for our votes as if they deserve it. Truly remarkable.

Let us not forget what we are sacrificing our men and women and billions of dollars and our economy for.  It’s to free the people over there:

A Pakistani politician has defended a decision to bury five women alive because they wanted to choose their own husbands.

Israr Ullah Zehri, who represents Baluchistan province, told a stunned parliament that northwestern tribesman had done nothing wrong in first shooting the women and then dumping them in a ditch.

“These are centuries-old traditions, and I will continue to defend them,” he said.

Nothing says freedom like burying women alive!

She offered no ideas, no plans, only attacks, sarcasm and lies.  Only one other thing left to say:

Jesus was a community organizer and Pontius Pilate was a governor.

‘Nuff said.

Such a dilemma as to which I will watch this evening, as well as most Independent and Democrat male voters.

Personally I will watch the NFL game and catch the replay of Melanoma Man’s speech later in the evening. My prediction will be that Gramps will be wearing the same thrift shop blue suit he wears everyday. You’d think that if he can afford $500 loafers, he could splurge on a different suit. I predict he will use the term “My Friends” at least 10 times in his speech and will not say anything new as well as only point out what he dislikes or accuses Obama and the Democrats of….which most likely will be that the Democrats are the reason why the country is in debt and oil is so high. No accountability for the 1st 6 years of a GOP majority Senate & Congress that gave Bush a free ride for any and everything…it’s all the Dem’s fault.

Frankly, I would prefer not to listen to his rhetoric and watch the season opening game for the NFL…it’s less predictable!

What the hell kind of a speech was that?  She joked around like Ronald McDonald and was as sarcastic as Jay Leno the entire speech.  I thought the part about her family was OK, but the rest of the speech was just a Republican hit job.  She even repeated word for word lots of her acceptance speech last week.

The Republicans keep talking about “change.”  Don’t they realize that’s Barack Obama’s line and the change is getting them out of power?

She offered no substance, and did not talk at all about how she or McCain were going to make the country a better place.  Nothing special.

John McCain just bites everything off of Barack Obama, now he is biting the whole “change” thing.  Change from what?  The fucker is a Washington Dinosaur.

Republicans talk about keeping the government away from individuals at the convention?  WTF?  From the party that invades our privacy and runs on sending people to prison for no reason.  WTF?

Sarah Palin, who was gonna have the Bridge to Nowhere named after her is the reformer?  WTF?

Stupid Republicans and their stupid lies . . .

What is this put country first shit?  Every other sentence?  Every other word?  They accuse Barack of being a traitor to his country and we are suppose to be respectful to Sarah “Fucking Redneck” Palin?

I’m not even joking, you can’t make this nut-job shit up:

“She asked the library how she could go about banning books,” he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. “The librarian was aghast.” That woman, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn’t be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker for not giving “full support” to the mayor

GOP campaign spokesman lashes out at media’s ‘old boys’ network’

It was ok to throw Kerry under the bus and question his courage and heroism during Vietnam…that was ok, especially for FOX Noise! Amazing what happens when the tables are turned. Kerry was a hero, he saved his fellow soldiers lives, McCain was a patriot that served in the Military and unfortunately got shot down. McInsane is not a hero in my book for bombing innocent villages and peoples…the Bay of Tonkin as we now know was all a fabricated lie! McCane served this country, but frankly he is no hero in my book, he did his duty and was a patriot as are many others that served.

Back to Palin though, as I am absolutely flabbergasted at this coming from our Maverick (BTW…the Ford Maverick was a piece of crap…I correlate that with the term Maverick now…CRAP). It may be his campaign calling for this, but if the CRAP name of McCane is associated with it…then it all points to Crap and McCane.

When our country has a position of such high regard and importance, not only to our citizens, but the world, why would one have to defend and call for the nation and its press to lay off Palin? If she can’t take the criticism and heat of the job title, then step down from the nomination.

After the past two Presidential campaign-elections and the rule book of which the GOP has played its part in being a below the belt style of smearing the Democrat candidate, why now are the rules changed? They still have the same morons running their party. You can’t tell me Rove is not a part of this either.

So far Palin has quite a few skeletons in her closet & honestly I want them all out in the open if she is to be on the same platform as our crap Maverick.

I still remember the GOP and the nasty remarks they made in the Clinton campaign against Chelsea of which I think she was maybe 11 - 13 years old then? That was ok to pick on a little girl, but god forbid anyone says something against the pregnant daughter of Palin. Even Palin said she is now an adult due to this pregnancy and will need to grow up fast. This is great schooling by the moral mom of ethics and abstinence education to have this in her family at such a crossroad. In my opinion, this is all part of the election process in America that had been a staple of the GOP for more that 3 decades…she needs to grow up sometime…her mom is running as VP…she is FAIR GAME! The entire Palin family is fair game!!!! Hell the Facebook page of Palin’s daughter’s boyfriend of who knocked the kid up states he doesn’t like kids and is a redneck…great! Nice guy…good example of the home school and religious mothering she speaks so highly of for the rest of this country.

They are already stalling and making Palin’s availability scarce for the Trooper Gate investigation…reminds me of how Rove and all the cronies in office and not in office have avoided subpoenas and have blown off court hearings. Why should Palin be different from any other of these political hacks that feel they are above the law. I am surprised that the Maverick himself didn’t call for executive privilege, since in his feeble mind he already thinks he’s President.

I say lay it on thick against this VP running mate of the Crap Maverick. If she breaks down, then you know what she’s made of. The world is cruel out there and maybe they need to expose her to that?

Noting that Palin’s calls of action are all based upon what Jesus & God tells her to do, maybe Jesus can protect her from comments made and questions of her integrity for which she so strongly stands for. Perhaps Palin and Bush can have a conference call with Jesus and God since they speak to him everyday? After all, Palin said the call to war was Jesus and Gods will, let’s see if Jesus and God will stop the press and the American people from wanting answers to questions that she obviously is hiding from and has already lied about since day one!

Lay off Palin? I think not!!!!! This is only the beginning. If she can’t take it, then I sure as hell do not want her to be a heartbeat away from being President if McInsane the Crap Maverick gets elected.

Lieberman and Thompson tried their best tonight to fight for John McCain.  Lieberman ended up looking like a disingenous turn-coat, and Thompson couldn’t stop clearing his throat enough to say anything.  It really was a sad old event tonight.  A bunch of old, disgruntled white men trying desperately to keep control of this country.

The crowd wasn’t all that enthusiastic, the show was rather boring (save for the moving video on the Medal of Honor winner), and nothing new was said.  Laura Bush could barely keep a straight face when she talked about Palin’s “executive experience.”

A boring, subdued night that I don’t think many people paid attention to.  There was a tribute to George H.W. Bush, but President Bush’s short speech was rather defeatist sounding.

Speaking before the Pentecostal church, Palin painted the current war in Iraq as a messianic affair in which the United States could act out the will of the Lord.

People think that the Rev. Wright debacle was an issue, then have a look at Sarah Palin at her church and her video of what she says about the U.S. and gods roll in everything.

She makes Cheney look good.

Speaking before the Pentecostal church, Palin painted the current war in Iraq as a messianic affair in which the United States could act out the will of the Lord.
“Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God,” she exhorted the congregants. “That’s what we have to make sure that we’re praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God’s plan.”

The video can be seen here:

What a wack job….any bets on if McInsane will drop her from the VP? Intrade is taking predictions, It’s happened before and I think she is gonna crack…hell she is already cracked in the head!

Why is it that these people can not understand that evangelical, right wing religious christian belief is not the same spiritual beliefs of others in our nation. Whatever happened to preaching tolerance? These people are on a path of their way or no way. This is a fantastic reason as to why this nation needs to explore the separation of church and state.

These people, if in complete power and if they got or get their way in the next election are as dangerous to you and me as we spew to the world of the Taliban.
