Founder of Weather Channel to sue Al Gore?

Posted at 11:33 am in Environmentalism & John McCain & Politics

Please let this be true. From Energy Publisher:
The founder of the Weather Channel, John Coleman, has called global warming a “total myth” and a “scam.” Coleman and 30,000 other scientists (including 9,000 PhDs) may sue Al Gore and others selling carbon credits for fraud. Coleman says the manipulated hysteria over global warming has become an [...]

I am Joe

Posted at 1:59 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & John McCain & Sarah Palin

A few days ago, I got an email from the McCain/Palin campaign asking if there were any other Joe the Plumbers out there who were working hard to reach the American Dream. If so, the McCain campaign encouraged them to send in videos telling their “Joe the Plumber” stories.
We want you to tell us [...]

Fred Thompson tells the story of John McCain

Posted at 7:07 am in John McCain

If you missed the Republican National Convention in early September, you missed Fred Thompson’s goosebump-making speech about John McCain’s military service. It’s truly inspiring. Freedom’s Lighthouse published it today. It’s worth the time to watch it and remind ourselves the sacrifice Senator McCain made for his country.

John McCain brings down the house at the Alfred E. Smith Dinner

Posted at 6:17 am in 2008 Presidential Election & Barack Obama & John McCain

I saw the Alfred E. Smith Foundation Dinner last night and John McCain had me laughing out loud during his entire speech. This dinner is a chance for the presidential candidates to deliver some stand up comedy. As much as Barack Obama tried,  he just doesn’t have a lot of comedic timing whereas John [...]

Excerpts from Sarah Palin’s speech

Posted at 7:45 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & John McCain & Sarah Palin

Here they are folks, excerpts from Sarah Palin’s speech tonight.
“I had the privilege of living most of my life in a small town. I was just your average hockey mom, and signed up for the PTA because I wanted to make my kids’ public education better. When I ran for city council, I didn’t [...]

John McCain Picks Alaska Governor Sarah Pallin as Vice President

Posted at 11:19 am in 2008 Presidential Election & John McCain & Sarah Palin

I am so psyched about this. It’s brilliant. In one fell swoop, John McCain usurped Barack Obama’s mantra of hope and change.

The story from Fox News:
John McCain will introduce Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his vice presidential running mate at an event here at noon Friday, senior campaign sources confirmed to FOX [...]

Sarah Palin for Vice President?

Posted at 2:30 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & John McCain

Barack Obama didn’t choose Hillary or any other woman to be his vice presidential candidate, so that poses a question for McCain. Should he choose a woman to be his vice president? One of several names being floated is Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Being a governor, she’s got executive experience. She’s a conservative, there’s no [...]

Why is Obama Bringing up McCain’s Houses?

Posted at 12:00 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Barack Obama & John McCain

This is not winning issue for him as I wrote at Wizbang just a bit ago:
Obama is getting desperate. He’s now trying to malign John McCain because he owns several houses, insinuating that because he’s wealthy he’s too different from and out of touch with the typical American, so he shouldn’t be trusted. This, folks, [...]

There’s a Bear in the Woods

Posted at 9:59 am in 2008 Presidential Election & Barack Obama & John McCain & Politics

My Wizbang colleague Jay Tea has a great post today (Actually he has many great posts. This is just one of them.) In it he reminds us of Ronald Reagan’s Bear in the Woods campaign ad in which the Reagan campaign used the bear as a metaphor for the Soviet Union. It’s a persuasive piece [...]
