Ten Dated Political Signs/Posters










Polygamy, Abuse, Murder, and Religous Practice

This is an outrage - it is all illegal and immoral - why does our government continue to allow it to exist?

Fundamentals of the Economy Are Not Sound

Political Joke

After numerous rounds of 'We don't even know if Osama bin Laden is still alive', Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own hand writing to let him know he was still in the game and it was Bush who is about the leave the scene.

Bush opened the letter and it contained a single line of coded message:

370H-SSV-0773H

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condoleezza Rice. Condi and her aides had not a clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.

No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, and then to MI6.

Eventually they asked the Mossad (Israeli intelligence) for help.

Within a minute the Mossad emailed the White House with this reply:

'Tell the President he's holding the note upside down .

This is a dated political ad from the McCain campaign - but was it more prophetic than damaging?

Conservapedia On Barack Obama


This clip is actually from the J-Walk Blog wherein John posts some clips from the Conservapedia (The conservatives' version of Wikipedia) which reproduces lies and half-truths about Barack as if it were an encyclopedia entry. Just goes to show you - conservatives are not only stupid, they are spiteful people. It must be an interesting view of the world to have a mind so warped.

A few excerpts:

Obama is the first person having ties to a known former terrorist to gain control over America's nuclear weapons.

Doctors from the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons have stated that Obama uses techniques of mind control in his speeches and campaign symbols.

Obama will likely be the first Muslim President

Obama has consistently shown himself to be an elitist who looks down on "ordinary" Americans.

Bush Isn't Done Screwing the Nation Yet...


From the Progress Report, 10/10/2008... (Archives)

Having promised to "sprint to the finish" of his second term and "to remain focused on the goals ahead," President Bush is "working to enact a wide array of federal regulations, many of which would weaken government rules" aimed at protecting workers, consumers and the environment, the Washington Post reports. "The administration wants to leave a legacy," said Gary Bass, executive director of OMB Watch, "but across the board it means less protection for the public." Indeed, the Bush administration is implementing over 90 new regulations which "would be among the most controversial deregulatory steps of the Bush era and could be difficult for his successor to undo." The wide array of new regulations includes proposals to undercut outpatient Medicaid services, weaken the Endangered Species Act, and allow increased emissions from older power plants. In some instances, the administration has allowed federal agencies to circumvent public feedback methods by limiting the period for public comment, "not allowing e-mailed or faxed comments or scheduling public hearings." Transition advisers to President-elect Barack Obama, meanwhile, "have compiled a list of about 200 Bush administration actions and executive orders that could be swiftly undone to reverse White House policies." The kind of regulations they are looking at are those imposed by Bush for "overtly political" reasons, said Dan Mendelson, a former associate administrator for health in the Clinton administration's Office of Management and Budget.

Election Memory Dance Off!

Apologies

I'm sorry to have disappeared just before the election - I wound up in the hospital having by-pass surgery. I'm still alive, but very sore.
