Let me see if I have been accurately following this CBS story. They air an article on a subject 30 years old, that has already been beat to death. But this time, they come up with some new evidence. Ok, that looks good. Then the 'new' evidence is found to be forgeries. Oops! Caught with their knickers down. And that was after 5 years of research. Hmmmmm......wondering who was doing the research. Then, after stonewalling for days on the forgeries, do they say "oops, we been had!". Nope, they t...

By Now most everyone has heard of the 276 cars that Oprah Winfrey (actually Pontiac, but it was her show) gave to her audience for "free". The retail of the cars was around $28k. Oh how happy they all were! Then there is the rest of the story. As anyone who has been around longer than the 80s know, nothing in life is free! And indeed, these poor people (I understood that the audience for that show was people in the bottom quarter in terms of income) are finding out the hard way. They ...

While it is clear that the attempt at subterfuge with mentioning Mary Cheney's daughter backfired on him. As did Elizabeth Edwards equally crass remark about Lynn Cheney, and John Edwards all too stupid boast that the dead would walk once Kerry was elected, this latest form of stupidity apparently is not the Kerry/Edwards campaign's fault! But it does go to show what happens when snooty foreigners, who think they are better than Americans by virtue of their birth, get caught with their pa...

After watching the debate last night, and then getting a good nights sleep, I read the transcript from the debate. What a difference a day makes! Actually, it was not the light of day that made me sit up and take notice, but the actual dearth of substantive answers John Kerry gave! During the debate, this was not always evident as he is a very glib and well spoken individual. But on reading the transcript, 2 things became obvious, that while I noticed during the debate, were magnified ...

While it is undeniable that there are many good. well intentioned people on both sides of this election, there appears to be a disturbing trend developing. Over the last month we have been treated (and I use that word sarcastically) to incident after incident of hate and intolerance by one side of this national debate. Shots fired into Campaign headquarters. Houses vandalized and Nazi Swatikas set ablaze on lawns of supporters of one of the candidates. Peaceful protesters set upon and ...

The following was posted by an anonymous user called CroMag. However, I think it cuts to the chase of tonight's debate and the outcome of the election as a whole. This poster did not state his political persuasion, but his issues seem to cut across many lines. I credit him because I do not want anyone thinking I am plagarizing, or creating this on my own. I think, and I alluded to in someone else's thread, that tonight is THE Debate. That it would be decided tonight. This post backs...

The race for 2008 is already on. On the Democrat side, the key players have been known for quite some time. However on the republican side, the race is wide open. Fox has posed several likely candidates: That leaves a potentially crowded field — including Sens. Frist of Tennessee, John McCain of Arizona, George Allen of Virginia, Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania and Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, New York Gov. George Pataki and Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney...

Now that the election is over, and Kerry has made the best speech in his life, time to examine the 'internals' as they say in the polling world. And I am pleased to report that with the Help of Little_Whip, the grand Old Dominion set an all time record for turnout!  Yes!  Little old "Carry me Back" did it.  Just listen to these accolades: At least six states - Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia - and the District of Columbia set voter-tu...

Kerry does something right for a change. My opinion of him just went up a bit. A little bit! LOL

Recently, Little_Whip posted an article about a conversatjon she had with a Kerry Surporter. She did not solicit the conversation, it just kind of happened. Well, Sunday something similar happened to me. I had gone to Hardee's to grab some lunch for my wife and I, and was just waiting for the order to come. My Wife was working on the computer, and I was waiting for my beloved Raiders (sob!) to come on. The lady taking my order had taken my money, and was just waitin gto the burgers to c...

It has been alleged that if your are a republican, you are a racist, and the proof of that is that the south is now republican. The left tries to do this every election to keep the blacks safely in their voting fold, and for the past several elections, it has worked. Which is a pity since the best friend the blacks have are the republicans. The democrats that are racists, with few exceptions, remained in the democrat party and either retired or died. While some may point to Strom Thurmond as an ...

In response to blogic's post of sooo many republicans defecting, here are a few Democrats that are not senile and have seen the way! Ed Koch, Former mayor of NYC Zell Miller, Senator from Ga, Retired Cong. Sonny Montgomery of Mississippi (and a lot of his other democrats - http://www.wtok.com/home/headlines/1054536.html) This is just plain silly and stupid. Blogic, next time, quote republicans, not independants! And you can match democrat for republican, as we can match republican...

Well, where was the denizens of truth and justice when Dan Rather did that hack job, fraught with fraud and forgery, on George Bush? Where were the keepers of the flame when Author Kitty Kelley prmoted her book on 3 days on NBC. A book so fraught with lies and half truths that even the purported source of her most scandalous item retracted her support? Where was the outrage when the lie-amentary from Michael Moore (proven to contain at least 59 falacies and so many half truths as the ca...

Just recently I responded to an article that said why the democrats just dont get it.  I basically said I use to look at both parties and even (shock!) vote for democrats. And I suggested a way for them to 'get it' and regain the white house.  I hate a one party system. So what do I get?  A liberal that trashes his own party member!  Talk about eating your own! They just dont get it.  They would rather commit hari Kiri than get some of their agenda! And you ...
