my friends ...

Its really very simple.

As President Bush noted in the one great speech of his life, following 9/11 ... either you are with us, or you are against us.

Either you vote McCain ... or you return to 40% marginal tax rates that will be the final nail in the economic coffin.

Either you vote McCain ... or you unleash the holy hell that "universal health care" is upon the nation. (Ask the Brits and Canadians what they think of it).

And while you're at it, ask Barry how he's gonna finance it. In Canada, its through a massive fuel tax. You think you're paying a lot at the pump now? Elect Barry. You'll dream of the days $2.87 / gallon was reasonable.

Either you vote McCain ... or we will surrender in Iraq. And if we surrender in Iraq, say hello to a nuclear armed Iran.

Either you vote McCain ... or you vote for a man whose political career was launched in the living room of a man who attempted to blow up the Pentagon! Hello! This isn't rumor, this isn't speculation, its f*cking fact! And Barry can deny the ties all he wants, the bottom line is that Barry wrote the freaking forward for Ayers' book! You don't write a forward for someone's rantings on paper ... UNLESS YOU AGREE WITH WHAT IS BEING WRITTEN!

Agh!

Predictably, the OKC Star (and that's not "Oklahoma City"), so in the tank for Barry that OMSNBC is jealous, wrote their opinion that Obama "continued his momentum", which no reasonable person could conclude from watching this thing.

(On the other hand, Obama's gone from up 7 to up 1.9 percent in 4 days in the Zogby daily tracking. Let's pray he did "continue his momentum"?)

Some of their hysterically clueless comments include:

"The GOP candidate gained no ground on a surging Barack Obama". First of all, McCain's cut the lead from 7 to less than 2 in the last 4 days. So how is Barry surging? And secondly, how the f*ck would the Star know if McCain failed to gain ground? It won't be until mid morning before the latest tracking polls are out! Jesus, OKC Star, if you're going to lie, at least make it SOMEWHAT believable.

"McCain claimed that problems at mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were the match that started this forest fire". I'll agree with the Star here; McCain did oversimplify this. But that doesn't change the fact that one of these two employs BOTH former heads of those agencies, one of who, Franklin Raines, made off with $90 million in a golden parachute less than 18 months ago! And it ain't McCain! (peter griffin voice) Jesus Christ. Unbelievable.

This one is my favorite though: "Obama also came out on top in the discussion over health care reform, clearly laying out his proposals as well as recalling his mother’s struggles with insurance coverage as she was dying of cancer."

Can someone explain to me how "recalling his mother's struggles" is going to help solve the health care crisis? Look it, I don't wish ill on anyone, other than those affiliated with the denver broncos, and come Indy 500 time, those affiliated with michael andretti. But seriously. Telling a sob story about your mom now counts as competent policy?!?! What the f*ck has happened to common sense in this country?

I wonder, if McCain had countered with a story about how his (God love ya) 96 year old mom struggles to find decent coverage and insurance at her advanced age, would the OKC Star have highlighted her courageous fight? Hell no!

And when, if EVER, has Barry "clearly laid out his proposals" about ANYTHING?!?! Other than returning the top marginal tax rate to 39.6%?

The OKC Star also notes that "McCain claimed that he did not support tax cuts for the wealthy. That’s playing a rhetorical game; he supports legislation that would reduce taxes for the wealthy below what they would otherwise be.)

Uuh, OKC Star? The top 1% of wage earners in this country pay 51% of the taxes. The top 5% of wage earners in this country pay an astronomical 82% of the taxes. These aren't figments of the imagination, those are "facts", as confirmed by IRS data easily available to any American taxpayer.

When Barry claims his plans won't hurt 95% of the American tax paying public, he's right. BECAUSE 95% OF THE PUBLIC ISN'T PAYING A GODDAMNED THING!

If paying taxes is "patriotic", as our good friend Joe Biden asserts, then why aren't you calling on ALL Americans to do their "patriotic duty" and fork over even more of the non-indexed-to-inflation wages they earn to the government? Surely ALL Americans want to do their patriotic duty right, Barry?

I'm so f*cking done with my party. Congratulations, Dems. You were so desperate, so resolute, on "ridding" yourself of the Clintons ... that you nominated the biggest f*cking idiot to ever seek the highest office of the land. (Save for maybe Dennis Kucinich). And the reward you get?

Barry "continues his momentum" today in all likelihood, losing another point or two in the only poll that got 2004 right, Zogby's daily tracking. McCain gains ground in Ohio, Florida, and Virginia. And 27 days from now, when McCain rolls to a 350 electoral vote victory, guess what guys?

The Hillary in 2012 campaign begins.

Last night for me sealed any final doubts I had. Whatever you think of McCain ... not even the OKC Star's "fact check" could find a single lie he told. They found three outright lies of Barry. And they aren't even focusing on what really counts, namely that Barry employs former heads of these bankrupt institutions who looted them while in charge. That Barry's tax hikes would cripple whatever last credit markets are still open.

Oh. And that Barry launched his political career in the f*cking living room of a man who attempted to BLOW UP THE PENTAGON!

As the RNC noted yesterday, "what do Barack Obama and Osama bin Ladin have in common? They both associate with people who tried to blow up the Pentagon". They not only need to run ads highlighting this FACT, they need to mass mail it to every voter out there in every key swing state.

(Which this year, includes me. For the first time ever, I live in a state where my vote matters! Up until now, save for the 3rd District Congressional race and any race involving Phill Kline, I'm in the 30% minority. Now? My crazy old koot opinion matters! (kazoo voice) !!!!!!!!! I am officially registered as of yesterday. So whatever alleged .7% margin Obama had as a lead, just dropped by 1 vote ...)

Its obvious folks. If you vote Obama, you're retarded. Don't visit my site anymore if you're voting for an unelectable tool who can't think on his feet (as was OBVIOUS last night), who has NO real change for America outside of "well, let's bankrupt ourselves like Europe has by implementing socialism", who would LOSE a winnable war in Iraq because a couple kook fringe loons actually think we can negotiate with people whose base line position is "death to America".

You're voting for a man who launched his political career in the living room of a man who attempted to blow up the Pentagon. Of a man who sat for 20 years in a church whose pastor screamed "not God Bless America, God Damn America", and noted after 9/11 that "America's chickens have come home to roost". Barry didn't leave after EITHER of those outrageous remarks. He hung in there for another 6 1/2 years!

Even Oprah Winfrey, (God love ya), even she left Rev. Wright's church after the first comment. If Oprah has more common sense and intelligence than the Democratic nominee for President ...

And have I mentioned Tony Rezko? You know, the Chicago slumlord who Barry financed his house through? Who currently is awaiting sentencing on federal bribery and corruption charges, and who is about to spill the beans on what he knows to try to beat prison? Tony Rezko, Barry's neighbor (literally)?

This man ...

Sorry to rant. But I'll close with this.

Seeing Barack Obama as my party's nominee ... I have never been more embarrassed to have a D on my voter card.

Vote McCain if you give a sh*t about this country. Vote Obama if you don't.
