RSSObama in Panic Mode as Democrats Worry … McCain/Palin and now the Republican Party Surging
The main stream media did Barack Obama no favors by propping him up, carrying his 
water,throwing him softballs and making it possible that he defeat Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primaries. The ends result was that they created a false image and an even more false persona that Barack Obama was greater than he really is. Suddenly Obama finds himself in a dog fight for the presidency when many in his camp thought it was a foregone conclusion. As many in the Clinton camp in the beginning of the primaries thought that Hillary’s coronation was a formality, Obama finds himself in the same boat.
Having to defend one’s point of view and policies has its advantages. Having to constantly face tough questions and face the never ending barrage from the MSM builds character. It also reveals the very character that one already had. Thus is the present case with John McCain and Sarah Palin. Palin faced Charlie Gibson of ABC News in the same manner as she faces everything, like a pit bull wearing lipstick. The fact of the matter is she faced him and questions that Obama has never been asked. Lesser people would have folded. Candidates that had no core values or character would have whimpered and been crushed. Instead, the ticket of McCain and Palin finds them self for the 5th day in a row in the Gallup poll ahead. Here is an eye opener, McCain has seized a 3 point lead in the Rasmussen poll.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows John McCain up by three points, his largest lead since Obama wrapped up the Democratic Presidential Nomination. For most of the past several months, Obama has held a modest lead with McCain slipping ahead by a single point on just three of the past hundred days.
Not only is Obama in panic mode, the entire Democratic House and Senate are in meltdown mode wondering what truck just ran them over. Once again Democrats have counted their chickens was too early. According to a Gallup poll regarding the generic congressional ballot, the battle for Congress is now competitive. The once 15 point lead for Democrats has been reduced to 3 points. Democrats are in disbelief that their Congressional lead is all but gone. Now wait until Congress starts really using the coattails of McCain and Palin on the campaign events.
A potential shift in fortunes for the Republicans in Congress is seen in the latest USA Today/Gallup survey, with the Democrats now leading the Republicans by just 3 percentage points, 48% to 45%, in voters’ “generic ballot” preferences for Congress. This is down from consistent double-digit Democratic leads seen on this measure over the past year.
How is it possible that Republicans in Congress have made such an amazing comeback from the depths? One factor is the amazing coattails of McCain/Palin. However, the other major factor is that so many Americans are in favor of drilling offshore for oil. Nancy Pelosi, Democratic Speaker of the House decided to have Congress adjourn rather than work on an energy plan to help John Q. Public. While Democrats pander to the environmental lobbyists and said no to drilling, Republicans have favored lowering oil costs by more drilling which has obviously resonated with voters.

Charlie Rangel Caught in Tax Fraud Scandal
Posted on September 5, 2008 by Mr Pink Eyes
Tax Cheat
I wrote about Charlie Rangel being caught in the culture of corruption back on July 17th. That was for a scheme that he was running with his campaign offices. He was renting out rent controlled offices as his campaign offices. ILLEGAL!
But now it seems as though Charles Rangel is now in yet another scandal. This is a tax fraud scandal. Chalie Rangel “forgot” to report $75,000 in income from a rental property in the Dominican Republic, a rental property that he charges at least $500 a night to rent. He claims that he didn’t know that he had to claim this money as income.
How stupid does he think that we are? You receive rent and you don’t think that you have to report it? Give me a break. Charlie Rangel is the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee. The House Ways and Means Committee IS RESPONSIBLE FOR WRITING TAX LEGISLATION! Does he really think that we will for for this especially when we know that his committee is responsible for the tax laws?
This man is a fraud and needs to step down immediately.

it’s about time voters started remembering the things obama has said in the past and then changed his stances to suit what he thinks the voters want to hear. his so called “tax plan” is nothing but the same old “buy the vote” package that clinton used to get elected. then when in office, found it inconvenient to fulfill the promises he’d made.
it’s too bad that we can’t see and hear back to back videos of palin’s interview with obama’s third and final recommendation to handle the russian invasion of georgia. he has bragged that he has 300 international relations experts that he confers with on such matters, and after 3 days he solemnly recommended that the invasion be taken to the united nation security council. evidently the 300 advisors and obama didn’t know that russia has veto powers in the security council.
it’s just this kind of flimflam and lies that the ultra-liberal media has let obama get away with for 2 years, and it isn’t going to improve. in fact the media, except for fox, seems to be in as big a frenzy as obama himself. their reputations are on the line now because they’ve let him get by easy with softball questions and no follow-up because they were afraid of being accused of racism. imho.

#1.
The adjourned because the Democratically controlled Congress said let’s go on vacation and the hell with the public and high gas prices. Republicans wanted to stay and do the work of the people. They wanted to discuss drilling and energy bills.
Pelosi said, let them eat cake.

#3 they should remember what happened to the last person who said let them eat cake.. lol..
Another one from Whoopi on “The View” today . And they think Dan Quayle is dumb because he couldn’t spell potatoes.? This is what she said to John McCain.. Whoopi should read the constitution and find out who signed the Emmancipation Proclamation. I love Drudge..
“Should I be worried about being a slave, about being returned to slavery because certain things happened in the Constitution that you had to change?”

Hello Bloggers, it’s me M.C. Rove! Welcome to Republican Radio! Did some one say surge?
Time for a little musical interlude.
It’s a remake of the Louis Armstrong classic, What A Wonderful World.
By The New Rat Pack
John McCain, George W Bush, Lindsey Graham, and Joe Liberman
With music from the Fox News Spinners and the GOP Choir
What A Wonderful Surge
I see Hummers of green…….. red mist too
I see em kabloom….. for me and for you
And I think to myself…. what a wonderful surge.
I see body bags of black….. shrouds of white
Bright scorching days….dark sweltering nights
And I think to myself …..what a wonderful surge.
The colors of a folded flag…..so empty when they die
Tears on the faces…..of the families saying bye
I see moms wringing hands….crying what do we do?
Theyre really sayin ……we’ll miss you
I hear inconsolable little kids cry…… the fallen won’t see them grow
They’ll miss their dad…..more than McCain will ever know
And I think to myself …..what a wonderful surge
(instrumental break)
The colors of a folded flag…..so empty when they die
Tears on the faces…..of the families saying bye
I see moms wringing hands…..crying what do we do
Theyre really sayin ……we’ll miss you
I hear babies cry…… I watch them grow
They’ll miss their mom…..more than McCain will ever know
And I think to myself …..what a wonderful surge
Yes I think to myself …….what a wonderful surge.
Hello Bloggers, it’s me M.C. Rove! Welcome to Republican Radio!
Here is another oldie, and I mean moldy oldie, because it’s a biographical song about Johnny McCain!
Johnny B. Goode!
Deep down in Arizona close to Mexico
Way back up in the cactuses where it never snows
There stood an ancient mansion made of gold and wood
Where lived a a corrupt politician named Johnny B Goode
Who’d never learned the difference between Sunni or Shia so well
But he could pretend to chase Osama to the gates of Hell
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode!
He used to carry his bribe money in a gunnysack
Go sit beneath a tree and count his Keating kickbacks
Old lobbyist on K street would see him sittin’ in the shade
Laughing at the doubletalk and flip flops he made
The people passed him by they would stop and say
Oh my but that little old mummy really hates the gays
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode!
Once upon time the state of Arizona couldn’t host a superbowl
Because it was legislated by a group of white supremacist trolls
The bigots were led by an angry fascist who was a goose-stepping man
A millionaire, senator who belonged to the Klu Klux Klan
Johnny B Goode was a maverick when it came to recognizing MLK
So the old cracker donned his klan robe and voted against a holiday
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode!
His mother told him someday you will be an old man
And you will be the leader of a murderous criminal clan
Many people will be blown to bits from miles around
To see you launch the nukes and take us all down
Maybe some day you will make mushroom clouds so bright
Sayin’ “Johnny McCain pushed the button tonight”
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Go! Johnny!
Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode!
Let’s go on vacation and the hell with those 54 warnings about arabs hijacking planes. I need to clear some brush! Dick has ordered some SAM missiles for my roof when i’m in a heavily guarded compound in florida the night before it all goes down.
YEEEEHAAAA I’m a war presidunt!!!!
Bring em on!!!!!

Wondering No More [Jonah Goldberg]
Yep. The day after 9/11, as part of its “get tough” makeover, the Obama campaign is mocking John McCain for not using a computer, without caring why he doesn’t use a computer. From the AP story about the computer illiterate ad:
“Our economy wouldn’t survive without the Internet, and cyber-security continues to represent one our most serious national security threats,” [Obama spokesman Dan] Pfeiffer said. “It’s extraordinary that someone who wants to be our president and our commander in chief doesn’t know how to send an e-mail.”
Well, I guess it depends on what you mean by “extraordinary.” The reason he doesn’t send email is that he can’t use a keyboard because of the relentless beatings he received from the Viet Cong in service to our country. From the Boston Globe (March 4, 2000):
McCain gets emotional at the mention of military families needing food stamps or veterans lacking health care. The outrage comes from inside: McCain’s severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes. Friends marvel at McCain’s encyclopedic knowledge of sports. He’s an avid fan – Ted Williams is his hero – but he can’t raise his arm above his shoulder to throw a baseball.
In a similar vein I guess it’s an outrage that the blind governor of New York David Patterson doesn’t know how to drive a car. After all, transportation issues are pretty important. How dare he serve as governor while being ignorant of what it’s like to navigate New York’s highways.
McCain is a good man, Obama is a ? Are you Barry Soetoro or Barack Obama..this should of been investigated when he first became a senator..I think he has certainly has a history that needs to to investigated…..
For once i was about to be proud of this country for electing the first president who is not 100% European, then yall gotta call this mullatto a muslim, unpatriotic, etc. yall start swift boating him, but this man is a different kind of Patriot who sees public service as in helping poor as a community activist as a form of honoring this nation, not killing innocent people in South East Asia by dropping bombs on citys and villages. I know John Mccain stood up for other soldiers once he was shot down, but he also was involved in a plane crash on the deck of a aircraft carrier that claimed over 100 lives, and was let loose to fly again because his father was an admiral. Man might be better than some republicans, but he and alotta other rich republicans still don’t see what the problem is in this country. I gotta say the trickle down effect republicans say will help the poor hasn’t done anything and i know, my gramma lives in Anacostia, S.E. Washington D.C., and last i check that is around 30-40 blocks east of the capital, and we still don’t see the trickle down effect, so i suppose if it doesn’t work near the heart of democracy, it doesn’t work anywhere. This economy is too bad right now for a continuation of the republican tax doctrine that lowers taxes for the rich, but not for the poor and middle class. Also for all those people who think a democrat is a bad idea for the economy all you have to do is look at every democratic president except carter, and look at the republicans at the same time……….the democrats always right the ship when the economies bad and bring prosperity like clinton, roosevelt, kennedy, johnson. Republicans the ones responsible for most the pork barrell spending, look at alaska and tedd stevens, and sarah palin.
Here is the list for the Senators PDF file..
http://www.cagw.org/site/DocServer/Senate_-_dollar.pdf?docID=3024
From 1 to 100 and 1 is ranked as the senator who has requested the highest dollar (MILLION) amount for earmarks.
BIDEN = 62 projects
OBAMA = 70 projects
MCCAIN is not on the list because he has not requested not ONE earmark! He and 4 other Senators are at ZERO
CHANGE YOU CAN MEASURE!!
MCCAIN/PALIN
Palin’s staff is quick to point out that the governor’s office has sliced its federal requests since she took office.
For the 2007 federal budget year, the administration of former Gov. Frank Murkowski submitted 63 earmark requests totaling $350 million, Palin’s staff said. That slid to 52 earmarks valued at $256 million in Palin’s first year. This year, the governor’s office asked the delegation to help them land 31 earmarks valued at $197 million.
I believe we have to stop the tide of evil in this world where we can.
Obama stands far left.
Obama is friends with a known terrorist.
He is not the man to lead America. He does not have the values to protect us. He wanted to run out of a war, not win it, but lose it on purpose. At a time when we are making progress and now that the added troops made a different, he still will not admit that it worked and we are winning. Look at this link. It says a lot about freedom and its cost.

And if you do not believe Obama is for killing aborted babies that came out alive, here it is with a witness to this practice.

God Bless this NATION Steve
he still will not admit that it worked and we are winning. Look at this link. It says a lot about freedom and its cost.
1200 dead Americans in the surge. Worked? What worked? Making maggot food out some kids dad, some womans husband, some couples daughter.
What kind of a God do you believe in Steve?
Are fetuses the only life for the “pro lifers?”
No one is for abortion, they are for the right to privacy.
God will judge each one of us when we die acording to our deeds. He will judge those who had abortions and he will judge those who murdered a million non fetuses called humans. he will judge those who see murdered Iraqis as nothing more than cock roaches. Pro lifers dont care about the kind of life that screams when the bombs fall, and cries when they hold half of their butchered child who has just become “colateral damage.”
John McCain and every right wing, war mongering, heartless, soulless, self righteous, hypocritical sheep that reads this blog care nothing for “life” and don’t even bat an eye at the ethnic cleansing and mass murder that was perpetrated by a gang of criminal liars.
But you know God, and you think He likes cluster bombs, and napalm, and rounds from a 50 caliber shot from an apache at a fleeing human.
And you think God puts his holy and pure stamp on the Republican party and every liar and war monger they run for office. God is against health care for children. God is against the minimum wage. God is for shock and awe.
I’m John McLiar and God approves this message. Are you ready to nuke Russia? God told me it’s judgment day.
Dear Mr McGod…Cigaretts kill many thousands every year. up to 1000 per day die in car accidents. On D-Day, I cannot even begin to tell you how many thousands died.
Who knows how many MILLIONS died in WW2 to stop Hitler’s advance and the extermination of Jews. Freedom is not free and I for one love our men and women in uniform fighting to retain our freedom. I see you are not appreciative, but what socialist is? The world should just have “one big hug”…so I say we should start with you. Go to Iraq and look for terrorist to hug and it will be alllll better. They will love you and stop all their bombings and killing. You will be such a hero. (you are actually a moron)
#6#7#14: idiots.john mcliar is a really good name for you , but i think it should be john dumbass. do you know God ? i doubt it . come on , i’m waiting for some more of your stupid ass comments. evidently you support terrorists as well as your messiah, barry soretoe. just say no to barry o.
I was an independent, not now. I”m tired of the McCain / Palin act already. We”ve endured 8 years of deceit and it”s time for an overhaul. McCain started out as well meaning and honorable but has evolved to disgraceful and dishonorable.
He bypassed many worthy and capable women to choose Sarah Palin. She appears to be very smart and likeable however I have zero confidence in her. Her mode of operation is to emerge as knowledgeable and above reproach, she is neither. Her best decision would have been to decline the offer of being the VP. She brings a lot baggage, deceit, inexperience and many questions about her.
It”s appalling that Republicans across the nation are praising Sarah and showing massive approval without a sound reason. Is McCain / Palin all you have? Bush/Chaney looks palatable.
McCain / Palin operate under the “Nine Commandments”. “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor” has been deleted from their hearts and campaign. My vote is for Obama/Biden 2008.
#5- Maggie—-Oh, Thank you, Dear. I have all the answers I need regarding Barrack Obama’s association with Ayres, trust me.

But you know God, and you think He likes cluster bombs, and napalm, and rounds from a 50 caliber shot from an apache at a fleeing human.
(Yes I know God and HE puts the world leaders in their places. You have to ask Him why)
And you think God puts his holy and pure stamp on the Republican party and every liar and war monger they run for office. God is against health care for children. God is against the minimum wage. God is for shock and awe.
(God wants all to come to Him and repent of their sins and He wants good things for His children that obey and live the example of Jesus His Son.)

Sounds like you are describing Obama..and he is running for the lead job.. What is Palin’s baggage? Sarah Palin is a governor and was a mayor among other things.. Bill Clinton was simply a governor of Arkansas with a ton of sex scandals, dodged the draft, admitted to smoking pot, but didn’t enhale..
I have read sites making fun of Palin hunting or that they hunt.. I do not hunt.. Kids always told me I would tame the squirrels and name them if I could. Years ago used to help with a place that takes care of wildlife until they are rehabilitated to live in the wild. Used to bring some of them home. They become like one of the family. Hard to let them go. About all I can kill is a fly or mosquito. I don’t eat a lot of meat..but I do eat it.. Killing for fun or torturing animals makes me sick, but some do hunt for food. I don’t see much difference from that and going to the store buying meat from animals someone else kills. The same people march for abortions.
[...] LEFT and the Obama campaign actually wonder why main stream and thinking Americans are running away from Obama and Democrats in mass. Share [...]
