Media bias and an uninformed electorate: how Obama got elected

Posted at 11:48 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Barack Obama & Media

This video confirmed for me what I already knew: the media, in the tank for Obama, helped give him the presidency by refusing to report anything negative about him while consistently hammering John McCain and Sarah Palin. Twelve Obama supporters were interviewed on election day after casting their ballots. They were asked questions about the [...]

A well reasoned argument against abortion

Posted at 6:12 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Abortion & Barack Obama

Kevin M. Clarke at The Charcoal Fire has a great post where he writes about his conversation about abortion with an Obama supporter who came to his door. It’s a great read. Here’s a portion:
He was genuinely curious how I could be a single-issue voter, not out of some sort of indignance, but it was [...]

What an Obama presidency means

Posted at 3:58 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Barack Obama

To this woman it means she won’t have to worry about paying her mortgage or putting gas in her car or paying her utility bills. To her, an Obama presidency means a free ride.

Let’s teach her a little something about personal responsibility by voting McCain/Palin.

Sarah the Fighter

Posted at 4:08 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Sarah Palin

Yesterday we heard that John McCain appears to be pulling his campaign out of Michigan. Well, Sarah’s not having any of that and she told Carl Cameron today that she shot off an email to the McCain camp saying that she and Todd are willing to go and campaign in Michigan together. This is what [...]

Sarah Palin’s debate performance in a nutshell

Posted at 12:15 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Joe Biden & Sarah Palin

Last night on MSNBC, which I never watch because it’s sickeningly in the tank for Obama, Peggy Noonan gave her thoughts and reaction to Sarah Palin’s performance in the debate. Her evaluation is right in line with mine: she killed. Take a look:

I think Sarah had everyone at “Nice to meet you you. Can [...]

Sarah Palin draws crowd of 60,000

Posted at 8:37 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Sarah Palin

Yes, you read that correctly. When she spoke at Lady Lake, Florida at The Villages, she drew a crowd of 60,000 people!
Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin told wildly cheering, flag-waving, chanting supporters that John McCain is “the only great man in this race” and promised Sunday he will fix the nation’s economy if voters [...]

Canadian doctor fears Palin’s decision to have Trig will mean fewer abortions

Posted at 1:26 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Abortion & Sarah Palin

Yes, this is actually his concern, that fewer women will abort their Down Syndrome babies, as if that’s some national tragedy. But when you have socialized medicine which requires rationed medical care to the masses, any newborn with developmental delays and physical disabilities can cause problems for the collective. What an awful sentiment, that newborn [...]

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 [...]

I will not back down in my support of Sarah Palin

Posted at 2:38 pm in 2008 Presidential Election & Culture & Media & Politics & Sarah Palin & Society

Let’s be honest here. What the POS on the left are trying to do is defeat Sarah Palin by undercutting her support on the right. They’re trying to get us to waver. They’re trying to get us to go wobbly on our support for her. It’s the only way they can defeat her. They [...]

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 [...]
