The high cost of delegates

Don Surber has calculated that each delegate cost Obama $101,249. One has to wonder if McIntyre’s vote was worth the cost? But I bet Obama will help McIntyre raise that much and more, now that Mike is “on the bus” for Denver.

This is a new McCain ad.

President has right ideas on energy!

Hillary wants to play with taxes this summer to give the illusion of “doing something” about gas prices. She would increase taxes on the oil companies to “offset” the loss to the treasury (begs the question - how will prices go down if the taxes on producers go up?). McCain also wants to suspend collection […]

Jenna Bush may vote DEM?

Posted on April 24, 2008 - Filed Under Democrats, Republicans, Media Bias, Presidential Primary, North Carolina, National Politics | Leave a Comment

Well, no she didn’t say that on CNN.
The quote is: “I mean, who isn’t open to learning about the candidates and I’m sure that everybody’s like that.”
Maybe not everyone is like that but she did not say she would not vote for McCain nor did she say she would vote for either Dem. She was […]

McCain’s first ad for the post primary race.

Obama naive or conniving?

Posted on March 20, 2008 - Filed Under Obama, dirty tricks, Democrats, Presidential Primary, National Politics | Leave a Comment

How can someone so woefully ignorant of World History from just the past century present himself as “the next US President”? Look closely at this Quote from Obama:

We should be more modest in our belief that we can impose democracy on a country through military force. In the past, it has been movements for freedom […]

Here are his proposed gun law revisions (remember his school is in NH ahnd borders Vermont. In NH any suitable person may obtain […]

FL Dems - you made the rules we broke the rules we’re mad

Posted on March 6, 2008 - Filed Under Republicans, Obama, McCain, dirty tricks, Democrats, Hillary, Presidential Primary, National Politics | Leave a Comment

Ok the Dems wrote their rules saying that if any state broke the rules and voted too early they would not have their delegates seated. Florida legislators knew the rules, the Florida Democrats knew the rules. They broke the rules.
Now they want - the existing vote to count and the delegates seated (that helps Hillary).
They […]

A mutual friend, Hon. Paul Mirski, wrote:
A generosity toward adversaries is rare […]

Barack Hussein Obama - Lets just include all middle Names

Posted on February 27, 2008 - Filed Under Mike Huckabee, dirty tricks, Obama, McCain, Democrats, general nonsense, National Politics, Hillary, Presidential Primary, Legislators, NH Politics | Leave a Comment

Full names are important. Imagine how difficult things would be without middle names? It is already difficult enough if looking for John Jones or Adam Smith.
Middle names also sometimes tell people where we came from or who our parents wanted to honor. My son carries his great grandfather’s name - which in turn was his […]
