Prepare To Be Offended

According to an AP poll, one in seven people are still persuadable. How on earth can that be? If after all this time you still don’t know who to vote for? I just don’t get it. You must either be blind, deaf or dumb. I’ll be these are the same people that sit in the drive through for 15 minutes and still can’t order anything.

Finally a Republican is getting a back bone:

“Now, listen, I’ve voted ‘present’ two or three times in my entire 25-year political career, where there might have been a conflict of interest and I didn’t feel like I should vote,” Boehner said. “In Congress, we have a red button, a green button and a yellow button, alright. Green means ‘yes,’ red means ‘no,’ and yellow means you’re a chicken s***.
“And the last thing we need in the White House, in the oval office, behind that big desk, is some chicken who wants to push this yellow button.”

I originally saw this on Ace. This is the message the republicans can’t seem to get out and I just don’t know why.

Now he is going directly for the press in his last days before the election, removing three reporters who happen to back McCain. They represented the Washington Times, the New York Post and the Dallas Morning News.

Of course Obama is spinning it as “we don’t have enough seats”. What bullshit.

Imagine if McCain kicked off all the reporters that were supporting Obama. It would a very lonely airplane…

In this video he says

…as Vice President or.. OR…

Take a look:

According to Opinion Dynamics Corp., 46% of Obama supporters say they will participate in exit polls compared to 35% of McCain supporters.

The real question is, like any other national election, how will the exit polls from the east coast affect the voting on the west coast?

IMAO touched on why he believes it won’t work either. I think his reason is rather humorous:

If I can be Allahpundit for a moment, I’d like to pour some cold water on these big plans because I think any big effort to organize conservatives will run into trouble because of the fundamental difference between conservatives and liberals:

Conservatives have jobs.

Real jobs that produce goods and services and add to the economy. Jobs that gives conservative real satisfaction at the end of the day so they don’t have this hole that needs to be filled with political activism.

I have a slightly different take on it though. In RightWingNews’ post, they mention sites like Digg, Fark and YouTube as far left magnets. I would have to agree for one reason.

Conservatives tend to be more rational. In other words, mobs don’t appeal to us.

Seriously, I used to follow Digg, but then the nutjobs got a hold of it and turned it into a hate fest. Rational people generally don’t fight back, we just leave. That is why I think talk radio is so big for the right, we don’t need to bask in the mob mentality. Listening to the radio means actually listening and I don’t know of anybody that listens to the radio is big groups.

Now, take a site like the DailyKos and they feed off of that hate mentality that drives mobs, and in their case, traffic. Now yes, there are a few right wing nut jobs, but you really don’t hear about them do you? The far left are all over the place. Some are just wackos while some are very well funded and organized (ACORN, MoveOn.org come to mind).

Ironically, my wife told me the other day that I was a far right wing guy. Funny, I always thought of myself as more right-centrist and independent. She says it is because I find all this information on the net. I say I’m just staying informed

So should we not organize at all? I don’t think that is the answer either. I think we need something, something to get the word out more. Something to get the collective thought together. Not sure what that is though.

What do you think?

Forgot all about these two did you? Seems that after some heated talks, NK threatened to turn SK into ‘debris’.

The North threatened to cut off all ties if the “confrontational racket” continues, citing a South Korean general’s recent threats to launch a pre-emptive strike against its nuclear sites and the refusal of civic activists in the South to heed Pyongyang’s demands to cease distribution of propaganda leaflets critical of its leadership.

“The puppet authorities had better remember that the advanced pre-emptive strike of our own style will reduce everything opposed to the nation and reunification to debris, not just setting them on fire,” the North’s military said in a statement carried by the state-run Korean Central News Agency.

Well, if it isn’t Iran that causes the “test” of Obama, as Biden puts it, or McCain if he becomes president, then it might just be North Korea. The statement of “…reduce everthing…to debris…” implies a nuclear attack. However I doubt NK would drop a nuke right next door, but who knows…

With Tuesday’s 889 point gain in the DOW, the Bank of Japan considering lowering interest rates and Australia and New Zealand’s indexes are both up over 3%. Wednesday’s trading should hopefully confirm this worldwide trend to recovery.

I sure hope so, I’m managing two IRA’s that I would like to see get back in the black before election day if possible!

However, at the same time consumer confidence is taking a nose dive.

This is going to be SOOO good!! From MacsMind.com and here is the actual notification.

Can you imagine the legal wrangling that had to happen to make this possible? I hope MacRanger is right and they play it right before Obama’s 30 minute infomercial!

Here is the release:

A final agreement has been reached between African Press International (API) and Fox News Network (USA) on the dates to air the Michelle Obama tape arising from a discussion Mrs Obama had with the API two weeks ago. The show will take place any day/time from now, with a 15 minutes alert on when it is to take place. Other programmes will be interrupted. This is a precaution taken to avoid interference from any quarter.

In the agreement, Fox News Network will broadcast 39 minutes of the 54 minutes long tape. The whole tape cannot be aired unedited due to security reasons and especially due to the explosive political temperature in the country because of the Presidential elections that is just around the corner, November 4th.

The tape will be aired in two portions by two separate units in the Network. API’s representative will appear live in one of the shows.

The parties have agreed that the information to be released to the public on the agreement will not include the naming of the units at Fox News Network that will air the tapes in order to avoid outside pressure and influence of any kind before the show has taken place. Nondisclosure of the name of the shows that will air the tapes has become necessary due to pressure from groups interested to block the release of the contents to the public.

Due to a huge interest in the tapes shown by some private individuals, groups belonging to some political camp(s) and persons connected to a section of an intelligence network, it has been decided that the 54 minutes long unedited tape is to be kept outside the United States in safe custody of one of API’s Lawyers based in Ontario, Canada.

The day and time schedules of the broadcast will only be announced 15 minutes before the Show begins in order to avoid attempts to block the Show from airing the tapes.

Any pressure from any outside forces that may want to know the exact day and time schedule of the Show before-hand or any other details in the agreement will get no answers to their requests either from API or Fox News Network.

The decision to have the above information public was a difficult one due to the sensitivity of the case and huge interest against, and for, the release of the contents of the tape for public consumption.

Spread the news…
