The Boss

The Boss is in Obama's camp.

The Queen of Mean

Wow, and people thought Leona Helmsley was a bitch, but this gal takes the cake.
Mom and Dad Obama supporters?
No candy for YOU!

Wanna bet she calls herself a "Christian"?


Way to stay classy Republicans......

In Praise of Candy Corn

Don't judge me!
I love candy corn. I know that a lot of you purists out there will remark that it does not taste like corn.
So?
What it is is soft, pure sugary goodness.
No one else that lives at my house likes it.

More for me.

What Obama did Not Say Last Night

While Palin is being snarky about Obama today in her speeches John Cole over on Balloon Juice reminds us of what Obama did not say in his infomercial last night.

Notice what is missing from that, conservatives? Attacks on John McCain. For 30 minutes, Barack Obama talked about what he thinks are the problems currently facing the country, about what he thinks he can do to help fix them, how you can help him, and why it is important to elect him. He did not spend his time telling you why you should not vote for McCain, he spent his time telling why you should vote for him. You may not agree with his ideas, but you can not argue he has them and is presenting them to the country in a clear and nonthreatening manner.

Since John and Sarah can't give a speech without lying about Obama I have a feeling their infomercial would be POW!WAR!AYERS!SOCIALIST!ISRAELHATER!TERRORIST! oh and did I say POW?!!!
I'm glad my candidate is the one who tells me what he will DO not what is wrong with his opponent, who lets me know what is ideas are to fix this country and who talks to me like an adult.

Newsflash

Elite Hillary backer joins the elitist party!
Sorry Baroness Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, but as a "regular person", I really could care less if a "insanely wealthy, titled aristocrat" leaves the Democratic party.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Chief and Morning Glories

Here is a new picture of Chief.
Such a big boy, no longer a little kitty.
He has begun venturing out on the back deck and into the yard.

No Honor

The Republicans have no problem lying.

That we all know.
This goes beyond the pale.

I am speechless.
At least georgia10 on Daily Kos is not.

Oh, and some asswipe Republican tore the Obama '08 sticker off my car tonight while I was in the fucking WalMart parking lot.
I kid you not.
So.
Pissed.
