It never surprises me how much the mainstream media gives John McCain a break on his gaffes, stupidity and ignorance.Is the BBQ that good?

Is Cindy really a “trollop” like John said?

Has McCain learned anything about the economy since he said he didn’t know anything about the economy?

Where’s Phil Gramm, now that he’s done calling us a bucha “whiners?”

Just HOW MANY lobbyists does John McCain have running his campaign?

Last but, no least, how can values voters and Catholics vote for McCain?

I for one, and I know I’m not the only, is wondering how long Palin can continue to be a major positive for the far right of the Republican party. Let me qualify this first as I am still very much undecided in this election. The dems went too far left in Obama/Biden to safely secure moderates, and the republicans stayed too much in the middle with the McCain/Palin choice. This is going to be a very close election because of this. Obama could have done better (I’m not going to name names) by picking somebody like who we in Missouri would consider an out-state Dem, which is exactly what McCain picked. The Palin pick will probably secured more voters who are on the fence about who they will vote for. She’s an every day woman that people can relate to. She is energizing the Republican party much like Obama has energized this Democrats, but will this last? Palin’s record is going to make the far right, if not already, uneasy about her voting record.

I know for one, if a Republican in Missouri vetoed bill, and by doing so, would allow domestic partnerships to carry the state insurance benefits as a married employee on the state’s dime, that Republican would be done in Missouri politics.

I know that this is just one example, but it’s a large example. She’s a moderate on the national scale, she’s far from the “moral right.” Palin has given a major bounce to McCain, but will it hold?

On a similar note… I’m still wanting to know how the Centrist feels about Palin?

While I don’t believe that a candidates family should give cause to a direct attack at the candidate, they do open the conversation for the policy debate. So for as much as you attacked Montee for being an unfit parent, I for one would like to know where you stand on Palin.

Well we now know that some of The posters in here can’t read. What else is new?

Jo Mannes, do you want to explain your next to last paragraph to them?

Hey Post - Nice job on Sunday - finding an article that says Palin, as the newly elected mayor of Wasilla, had asked a librarian from like eight years ago if she might take certain objectionable books off the shelf. That’s real in depth investigative reporting there. Good job! (NOT)
How about an article describing how, last year, after some 10 years of trying, she managed to get the $45B privately funded natural gas pipeline off to a start?
Or how she visited the Alaskan National Guard in Kuwait within three months after taking the governorship, then she came home and pushed for real supportive legislation for the NG? (The NG in Alaska loves Sarah - says she is one of the few governors that “gets it”.)
Or how she and Jindal (R - Louisiana) immediately set up relief shipments for victims of Gustav?
I guess those articles are coming next week.
And your paper isn’t biased - yeah, right.

If you want to focus on more than McCain-Palin and Obama-Biden, why not focus more on those running for the White House other than McCain-Palin and Obama-Biden? The 3rd (and 4th, maybe 5th) parties are long-shots, have no chance of winning, but a reminder that there are other choices out there would be refreshing.

Forever!!! Hallelujah!!!

Tim Hogan…

1. John McCain did not say that he doesn’t know anything about economics. If you want to claim that he did, please provide a hyperlink.

2. 100% of the Judiciary is controlled by one profession -LAWYERS. 60% of the Senate are -LAWYERS. If Obama/Biden is the winning ticket, all three branches of our government will be controlled by one profession -LAWYERS.

When one group controls our entire government we no longer have a SEPARATION OF POWERS. We no longer have a system of CHECKS AND BALANCES.

The checks and balances are a system for separation of powers. It is there to make sure that NO ONE GROUP or branch of government can have exclusive control.

The FRAMERS of our CONSTITUTION never imagined that any one profession would become the PROFESSION OF GOVERNMENT. It is evident that the legal profession, though being scholars of the Constitution, will not exhibit the professional self-restraint needed to recognize the effects of domination.

I dare the Democrats to run an ad declaring that if Obama wins the election ALL BRANCHES OF OUR GOVERNMENT WILL BE UNDER THE CONTROL OF ONE PROFESSION.

RE: JUDGE DALE HOOD - DIVISION 34

How about some blog coverage on a MENTALLY SICK unethical CORRUPTED JUDGE in the St. Louis County Family Courts that MUST be voted OFF THE BENCH!

Well, Jo Mannes, since I guess I can’read English, I too will join the fray.

The new poll is in and Mcain and Palin are now leading by 4 points. That could be because the libersls can’t get close to anyone because they have defocated in their pants and panties! That’ regionally and nationally. LOL

How funny!!

Hussein must be dumber than a mussel or he would not have attacked Sarah for accepting a earmark grant, She was a Mayor at the time and didn’t ask for it. What mayor in their right ming would refuse it????? That’s how business was done at the tiShe That doesn’t mean she thinks they are good.

Liberals, is it not A FACT that she has more experience in running a state government than Hussein has had in “community organizing”,whatever that is.

(note to the eiitors of the PD….Why don’t you do a story on what he did as a community organizer and what the community was like when he started and when he ended, and the differences if any.) Enquiring minds want to know.
