This is Definately a Railroad Job

   The Dear Leader and his Politburo have made it quite obvious that this election is fixed.  There is no way that a guy with all of the baggage Obama has would even get this far - especially against a Clinton. 

Fact: Obama is a freshman senator who hasn't "paid his dues" in the party. While it is true that he has spread lots of money around to 'grease the palms' of almost every Democrat in the party (that was how he was able to be a primetime keynote speaker at the 2004 convention) - he still shouldn't have gotten even a nod as a candidate in the primaries. 

Fact: Obama has a multitude of suspicious ties to extreme radicals on the Left.  We all know about Bill ("guilty as sin - free as a bird") Ayers, Rev. Jeremiah (God damn America) Wright, and Rashid (PLO terrorist) Khalidi (who also bankrolled Obama's Harvard Law School education).  But there's also the Communist Party, the folks at ACORN, and the Mafia ties that he has as well. 

Fact: Obama has a hazy corrupt past as well.  The whole Antonin "Tony" Rezko deal (sweet real estate deal on his house then kicking back state funds to Rezko to build/refurbish public housing that became nothing more than a slum), strong ties to the corrupt Chicago Democratic political machine (Mayor Daley, etc.), and the companies that produce ethanol (a proven flop when it comes to being an alternative fuel) giving huge sums of donations then getting major federal grants for ethanol production.

Fact: Obama originally promised that he would only take public funds for his campaign.  Apparently he must have thought that that meant the public could donate as they wish.  While he has raised nearly a BILLION dollars, his website for donations does NOT verify whether the donations recieved are from individuals or from unions, businesses, foreign nationals or countries.  All of these are ILLEGAL and shall not be used for campaign purposes. 

Fact: There has never been such open media bias toward a candidate in the history of the U.S.  In years past the elite media outlets (CBS, NBC, ABC, NY Times, LA Times, Washington Post, Newsweek) all were somewhat slanted to the Left - but this year was blatant.  "This is the year (2008) that journalism died.", Sean Hannity opined.  The media bias runs deeper than what is shown on television or published in newspapers and magazines.  Several of the major polls are done by media outlets.  If you want to show "your guy" in a better light, it is relatively easy to skew your polling data by questioning only certain demographics.  The polls that use a total average of the polls will also be skewed by this kind of tactic.  Now if an undecided voter keeps hearing day after day that one candidate is doing better than another - that voter is more likely to vote for the one in the lead. 

Fact: As soon as anyone tried to show any kind of strong opposition to the Obama steamroller - the stooges were deployed to expose, humiliate, discredit, or silence them.  Sarah Palin was the first victim of this insidious tactic.  She continues to be ridiculed for things that wouldn't normally be newsworthy.  Joe "the plumber" Wurzelbacher was investigated, exposed, belittled, humiliated, and all done illegally via the State of Ohio's databases.  To an extent Joe Biden is silenced (not enough apparently - "we'll be attacked in 6 months").  The Clintons were hushed up (how many times did you hear Hillary speak since she was steamrolled - compared to the number of times you've heard Romney, Guiliani, and Huckabee?).  Television stations around the country have been blackballed from further contact with Obama/Biden because they asked tough questions that put them in a bad light.  This is comparable to what is currently going on in Russia.  Putin has control over his own media outlet, and has forced opposition out of business.  Therefore he can control what the Russian public sees.  Sound familiar?  

Fact: Obama is a minority.  While he is of mixed heritage, historically minority candidates do not fare well in national elections.  Believe it or not, whites are still in the majority (not by much), followed by hispanics, asians, and blacks.  His background is very atypical of the traditional candidate (alcoholic father from Kenya who ran off & a mother who was 'flaky' at best), and he openly admits to having used illicit drugs (an image killer in times past). 

Fact: Obama has family who are shady characters in Kenyan politics.  Having family who are involved in ANY kind of politics overseas (especially in Africa) has been a huge red flag for a potential presidential candidate.  There are just so many things that should have prevented Obama from getting to this point - but he has gotten a 'free pass' from so many people that he has been able to have his associations overlooked. 

Fact: The Left is bitter and upset over the last two elections and will stop at nothing to fix this election.  G.W. Bush won in 2000 by just a few thousand votes in an outrageous debacle in Florida. He won again in 2004 by another close election focused on Ohio.  Both times the liberal left felt that they were robbed and now feel that it is their turn to steal an election.  Problem is, it is pretty obvious what they are doing - and we on the right aren't able to do too much about it.  

So if things don't go our way on Nov. 4th - don't be suprised to wake up in the O.S.S.A (Obama Socialist States of America) on Nov. 5th.  State controlled media, one party government, with a blind eye turned to the corruption and waste of our socialist government.  GOD HELP US ALL!

Obamercial

   I was glad that I was at work tonight.  With "Dear Leader's" address to the people tonight on 3+ networks (MSNBC, BET, and TV1 don't really count) I think I would have thrown a brick through my plasma screen.  I did peek at FNC's website to get a little idea of how it went.  Apparently, this guy has Hollywood building him Oval Office sets and has several elderly actors available to nod their heads in agreement as he lies about how his healthcare plan will help them.  Kim Jong Il couldn't get any better than this.  An idea that Dick Morris had yesterday was that they should have run a "crawler" across the bottom stating that the only reason why Obama was able to take up the airtime because he broke his promise to take public campaign funds.  Better yet, in the spirit of the "fairness doctrine" that the Dems so badly want to get - why not let Sarah Palin have a 30 min. show on FNC, and that station in FL that got blackballed by Obama/Biden.  At least that way they can't complain about pre-empting "Dancing with the Stars" or "Knight Rider" (ooh, that's high quality entertainment - HA!).

Barney Frank ... idiot, homo, criminal

   If this idiot was a Republican - he'd have his nuts chopped off by the media, would be on his way to being forced to resign.  But - once again - the folks at Pravda, er The New York Times refuse to go after him.  Further, the folks at any other liberal elite mainstream media wouldn't even touch it.  
   First of all, Barney Frank is openly gay and has been romantically involved recently with one of the key players in the financial mess we're in.  Second, his refusal to believe that the FannieMae and FreddieMac crisis came as a direct result of his negligence and partisan views.  Third, he is now advocating even more spending despite the record budget deficit and cutting - yes CUTTING - the military's budget by 25%.  Is this guy on CRACK!?!  We must not be at war anymore, or he broke out Biden's crystal ball and saw that we won't have that so-called "international crisis that "Joe the VP Candidate" he predicted.  Either way I hope that the folks that are so poorly represented by him rise up and vote him out of office. 

If you have lousy representation - don't just give them a free pass, vote the bums out!  .

A thought about the polls.....

   I had a moment of truly enlightened thinking.  No, there wasn't a voice coming from the heavens when the clouds parted "telling me to vote for Barack".  I was listening to the usual fretting and discussion over the polls that show McCain is behind by so many points, etc.  Then the commentators said that there was the New York Times poll that had McCain down by around 15 points, and the RealClearPolitics poll that takes the averages to come up with it's own numbers.  
   My thought is this....  If the NY Times and all these other media outlets that do polls are so far in the tank with Obama, what's to stop them from purposely skewing the numbers to make it look like Obama is out of reach of McCain - and thereby influencing the undecided voters (which there seems to be a lot more than usual this year) to vote for Obama because McCain "can't win"?  HMMMMM!?  If you think about it, most news outlets tended to avoid going with the exit polls until the polls had closed to keep from influencing the election.  But what's to stop them from putting out this polling information to influence the voting?  And we're voting already in many parts of the country.  HMMMMMM!?  If you think about it - this makes perfect sense.

Murthaf*cker

   Sorry about the title, but I think its a pretty fair assessment of the PA congressman.  If you go around and call your constituents "racists" and "rednecks" then you deserve a public flogging or something.  I mean, just how much more out of touch can this guy be?!?  He almost sounds as silly as Strom Thurmond did talking about black people, or Barney Frank does when just talking about anything.   Please tell me that the people of western Pennsylvania aren't so simple as to grant this jacka$$ another term.  I seriously hope that the retired colonel running against Murtha will kick his butt (either in the election or in real life).  
   Also, I am shocked that a war veteran like Mr. Murtha would lie about our Marines the way he did regarding the incident in Haditha, Iraq.  These young men were innocent and not deserving of Murtha's slander.  What ever happened to "honor" and "duty to country" Mr. Murtha?  Are you happy that you stabbed our servicemen in the back?

Second of a couple posts today

   Ok, now on to part deux.  Voter fraud is an EPIDEMIC in America.  Why have we let the one most important basic freedom we have turn into a FREAKIN' CIRCUS!?!?  I realize that many regular citizens don't give a crap about politics, or how it effects them.  I know that voting for the dog catcher in Podunk isn't on the top of many people's "to do" list, but it still is a right that is just as sacred as the Second Amendment (the Right to Bear Arms, for those who failed 5th grade Civics and those who never were taught this in school).  I have friends and fellow veterans who fought and died in Iraq and Afghanistan to give them the right to vote.  Furthermore, if we've become that apathetic then we deserve whatever comes our way.  

Who do you think is the right candidate to continue to guarantee this right?  I think the answer is blatantly obvious.

Post 1 of a Couple posts today

   Oh boy, I have to get in on the Biden bashing today.  I've been mum too long on his latest flub.  Can you actually believe the absolute NONSENSE this guy was spewing?  "A world crisis...to test Obama...will happen in six months."  WTF!?!  Did "Joe the VP candidate" whip out his crystal ball and come up with this?  Or maybe he's psychic?  No, I think he's more PSYCHOTIC than psychic.  I used to respect Biden because he once had a few good ideas about Iraq and the conduct of the war there.  Now I've come to the realization the man is a certifiable idiot! 

Let's review, shall we?  
   1. "We should do our patriotic duty and pay taxes" in order to support the Socialist - I mean - "Democratic" agendae when they get in office.  Ouch, let go of my checkbook!  
   2. "The real issue comes down to just 3 letters...J..O..B..S."  You say potatoe we say potato, you spell jobs with 3 letters we spell it with 4.  Yeah, whatever Einstein! 
   3. "There will be a world crisis...mark my words...in 6 months...to test Obama...and we may make a few decisions that may seem wrong...but we'll need for you to stand beside us (and keep spreading the propaganda that the "Dear Leader" is in control)".  That makes me all "warm and fuzzy" - oh wait that's that tingle up my leg.

Yet again another victim...

   Yet again, Obama's stooges have been mobilized to dig up whatever skeletons, misdeeds, or dirty laundry they could find.  We saw these stooges invade Anchorage, and Wasilla, AK in their satellite news trucks and shiny black Lincoln Navigators loaded with vermin.  These operatives of Obama are none other than the media and so-called "campaign workers".  Again I was appalled at the speed these sub-humans began to devour a target of Obama and his Terminator-like political machine.  Don't tell me that the underworld of Chicago mafia and radical extremists aren't behind this either.  With his ties to these groups, Obama can easily target anyone - even you or me - for instant public humiliation, scrutiny, and scorn.  
   The stooges descended on small-town Ohio this week to rein in the insubordinate Joe "the plumber" Wurzelbacher.  What scares me most is that it happened to a private citizen who simply asked a question that put the "Dear Leader" in a bad light.   "How dare he challenge the Great and Powerful Obama?!?" - they shouted. "He, he's not even registered to vote!"  "How dare he ask abot taxes when he doesn't do his patriotic duty and pay his!?" "His union says he's not even a plumber!"  "Why, he's even a sodomizing, child-porn loving, satan worshipper!"  "I bet the CIA planted him there just to attack our Beloved Leader!"   The interviews and comments made about Mr. Wurzelbacher in the following days after the incident were shameful and should be a huge opportunity for John McCain to capitalize on the liberal elitist mentality of the Obama-Biden ticket and the Democratic Party.  
   Even the "Dear Leader" himself put Joe the Plumber up for scorn.  In a speech at one of his rallies, Obama pokes fun at John McCain for sending a plumber to do his work.  The mesmerized crowd laughs on cue, and it makes a great sound bite for NBC's Nightly News.  Dianne "I'm too old for Primetime" Sawyer interviews the poor guy on ABC (Always Be Condescending) for Good Morning America.  Just like Charlie Gibson - Sawyer tries to trip him up by asking him if he is registered to vote. 
    "Yes, yes I am.", he replies.  "Oh, (SHOCKED) oh, I just wanted to clear that up.", Sawyer comes back.  When she asks him about his views on the Obama tax plan, she spews VERBATIM the Obama talking points in reply.  How much more in the tank can you be without working for MSNBC!?  
   I feel bad for Joe.  But, you know that there are millions of other "Joes" and "Janes" in this country.  John McCain MUST stand up with them and fight for them.  We are tired of do-nothing politicians that take our money and stuff it in their own pockets and in the pockets of their friends and contributors.  We need you John McCain!  Stand up and fight for us John!  Don't forget about us!

FannieMae and the Liberal Mindset

   I got this a few days ago, and some of the comments I've gotten recently (thanks Sue and bryce) have reminded me about this clip.  I can not for the life of me figure out how McCain/Palin have missed this point. The House Republicans and some of the Senate Republicans (including McCain) have been trying for several years to regulate and get a handle on the free-for-all lending practices that were FORCED on FannieMae and FreddieMac.  The only reason why none of this never saw the floor in Congress was that it could never have passed with enough votes due to the then slight Republican majority and the more recent Democratic majority in the House.  I am furious over the fact that not enough was done to stop this madness.
                
                                  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MGT_cSi7Rs   

   I understand why the Liberals in Congress think the way they do.  They feel the need to help the poor, the folks in need, and such.  But I care about these people too.  We just don't need to go around forcing bad business practices on lenders to help the disadvantaged.  
   My view is that the poor and needy can better benefit from a "hand up" and not a "hand out".  I think you all can agree with the old saying: "Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.  Teach a man to fish, feed him for life."  That is what many good and caring Conservatives feel.  Sure, help those in need - by giving them the opportunities to better themselves.  Don't turn people into welfare and entitlement junkies.  Let them have some dignity by getting out of the way to let businesses hire them, encouraging local faith-based groups to help the needy improve themselves, and save our tax dollars for those who truly need help (i.e. the disabled veterans, the family who lost a loved one while serving the country, etc.).  
   I went to a fantastic prep school in Detroit - University of Detroit Jesuit High School (GO CUBS!).  While I was there, we were encouraged to work with a wonderful group sponsored by the Archdioscese of Detroit (yes, the Catholic church) called FOCUS:Hope.  This organization (which I've visited several times even after I graduated) does help feed the needy, the elderly shut-ins, and the homeless.  But, they also have several fantastic vocational training programs to teach folks a trade (like machinists, and other technical jobs) so they can get good paying jobs. I think programs like FOCUS:Hope should be established everywhere, and supported by all of us with our donations of money, time, and talent.

Mike Church and Beck - Damn, they should get out of my head!

   These guys I think are somehow "channeling" my thoughts.  Are they secretly reading me?  Hey, if either of you are.. gimme a shout out, a little love or something!  
   I was at work last night, and I hate to admit that I was wasting our tax dollars, but it was a little slow - all my patients were asleep - and so I was doodling on a computer.  I saved a pic of one of those Obama posters that looks suspiciously like one of those Leninist/Stalinist deals from the old Soviet Union - and began to re-color it to make it even more Soviet style.  (I'd put it up for y'all to see but its still saved on a PC at work.)  I began to hum to myself the old Soviet national anthem as I was doing this.  Then, what do I see on Glenn's show tonight?!?  MY FREAKIN' IDEA!!!  Complete with Obama's new "national anthem".  All Hail Comrade Obama!
   On my way home from the hospital this morning I caught some of Mike Church's radio show.  A good show on Sirius satellite's Patriot channel.  He has a guest on there (forgot his name - too sleepy to remember) and the first thing out of his mouth was "Hello Comrade!".  This was a shot at McCain, and Obama both - but still MY FREAKIN' IDEA!  
   Obama I swear to you will turn this country into the U.S.S.A. if he weasels his way into the White House.  There will not be any incentive to succeed in business or your careers.  All you have to do is FAIL.  That's right - FAIL MISERABLY.  It'll be okay, because good ol' Uncle Barry will be there to help you with keeping you in your house.  He'll be there to give you the anti-depressants you'll need from the free government health clinic (and you'll need them to keep you calm and subdued).  He'll be there to make sure your child with ADD/ADHD can get in Harvard or Yale because they'll have to.  He'll be there to make sure all your dreams will come true.  Why he's the FREAKIN' FAIRY GODFATHER!!!

Anyone Out There - Part Deux

   OMG!  I can't believe I forgot one of the best moments on television (actually I heard it on Sirius satellite radio) when Bill O'Reilly exploded all over Barney "Sylvester the Cat" Frank.  That was EPIC!!  Barney Frank has got to have one of the silliest lisps (remember - he's gay too) and I was expecting the cameraman to reach around to wipe off the lens - like they do when Geraldo is standing on top of a levee in a hurricane - from all the spit he was producing.  O'Reilly flat out AMBUSHED the congressman - deservedly so - and called him out as a liar and a coward.  BRILLIANT!!  
   The Dems have no cover for their deceit.  They forced their radical liberal agenda onto FannieMae and FreddieMac by demanding that they give loans to un-creditworthy minority homebuyers.  This is going to sound racist - but facts are factsHow in the hell is a black family in the inner city of Detroit, Chicago, New York, Newark, St. Louis, Dallas, or L.A. going to buy a house with a minimum wage job and a welfare check!?!  How in the hell is a young latina single mother with 4 kids (from 4 different daddies) going to buy a house in the city with a welfare check!?!  Sure, their Democratic representative in Congress (Charlie Rangel, Chuck Schumer, John Conyers, etc.) will look even better to these poor people when election time rolls around because they helped them get a house - roaches, rats and all.  But these same slimeballs also benefitted from these programs for themselves - and wrecked the economy at the same time. 
   IF YOU LIVE IN A DISTRICT REPRESENTED BY A DEMOCRAT - ESPECIALLY THESE GUYS - THEN YOU MUST VOTE THESE BUMS OUT OF OFFICE IN NOVEMBER!!  THEY ARE THE ONES WHO DID NOTHING AND STOLE YOUR TAX DOLLARS!!  THEY ARE THE ONES WHO REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING, GO ON VACATION AND TRIED TO SILENCE THOSE WHO WANTED TO WORK OUT A SOLUTION TO OUR ENERGY CRISIS.  THE DEMOCRATS LIE, AND THEY WANT TO TAKE AS MUCH AWAY FROM YOU AS THEY CAN!!!

Anyone Out There?

   Wow, has it been nearly a month since I last posted?  A lot has happened in the past 3 weeks and I have been missing out on putting in "my two cents".  Is anyone even reading me anymore?  Give me a shout out if you are getting these!  I want to hear from you.

   1. What in the heck is goin' on with OUR government!?  Bailouts, earmarks for wooden arrows and race car tracks?  WTF!?!?  I have a really good video on YouTube that all of you should watch.  It explains how the monetary system we currently have came to be.  Warning: it is a bit "wonkish", but it explains things pretty simply.  Also, the Ron Paul types would go for some of the proposals at the end - but still a good primer on the economy and how it really works. The link is: Money as Debt - A 45 minute primer on the Economy .  
   
   2. The VP debate.  Sarah did well and did attack BHO and Joe - some.  Joey "Motormouth" Biden spouted off a bunch of incorrect "facts" about the middle east, Hamas, Hezbollah, and Syria - but not a single word was mentioned in the media about it.  Johnny Mac better go into Tues. night's debate and kick Mr. Empty Suit's rear-end - or we may be looking at the "United Socialist States of America".  The U.S.S.A. is not a place I want to live in.  Bread lines, Pelosi's politburo, statues of Obama looking down his nose at the commoners - you get the idea.  
   
   3. Sarah Palin is NOT STUPID!!!  The liberal "mainstream" media has been all over this poor lady and has grilled her more than a freakin' bratwurst.  Katie Couric is NOT a journalist!  Charlie Gibson is SEXIST and ELITIST!  Who do these punks think they are!?  They're NOT Walter Freakin' Cronkite that's for sure.  I got word that some Hollywood actress (don't remember her name - and frankly I don't give a rat's @$$) was coming to town.  It was not a big shock to find out that she was campaigning for - you guessed it - Barack Hussein Obama.  The media is a god-awful joke and should stay the hell out of politics.  
   
   4. What the hell is wrong with the Chicago Cubs!?!  Best team in baseball during the season and they get swept!?!  Guess that priest blessing the Cubs' dugout and pouring holy water on it did a whole lot for them.  The only way they will get to the World Series is if they sell their souls to the Devil and tear down Wrigley Field to play in a domed stadium on real Astroturf  (not that new fake grass - the kind of stuff you put on your patio). 

WHAT DO YOU THINK!?

The Latest Nonsense

   You have to love the Libs.  Joe Biden putting his foot in his over-active mouth, and the Obama machine spreading lies and more disinformation.  They talked about what a gift McCain gave them when he said (truthfully) that the basic tenets of the economy were strong.  The machine tried to spin that so McCain looked like Bush and had no clue about the economy and how out of touch he was.  Riiiiiiiight, and they're not taking their economic plans from the Communist Manifesto.  Ooops!  Did I say that!?  Nope - that would be Joe "I've got a mouth with a mind of its own" Biden.  He spilt the beans and says that they actually want to TAKE money from us and spread it out "for the common good" - read government - because that is the "patriotic" thing to do.  HAH!  They neglected to realize that the soviet socialist economic policies FAILED!!!  They also neglected the fact that the economy GREW over the past few months.
   The Libs plan to grow the government an even larger size - to control us even further, and get even more in the way of progress.  When has the government ever done anything well!?!?  Do you really want to have some dorky bureaucrat telling you how high you can turn up your thermostat, or when you can see a doctor, or how often you can drive your car?  
   They also plan to tax the s*it out of businesses, the folks that run these businesses, and the incentives that these folks had to stay in business.  So when all these businesses pass on the cost of these taxes in higher prices, firing the workers, and eventually closing their doors - should we be suprised that Obama and his sleazy friends will find a way to blame everyone else but themselves?     
   Then the libs want to put us even further behind in the world economy by closing our doors to foreign trade, not taking the steps to get us out of debt, and not taking the steps to truly get us free from the strangle-hold that OPEC has on us.  How can we regain that respect in the world if we refused to trade fairly with other countries, and welch out on our debts?  What we need is someone who will push for proven conservative economic policies, and have the courage to have the cajones to say that we're serious about drilling for our own oil.  Leadership is lacking in getting the budget squared away.  It is NOT a good thing to be "owned" by the Chinese.  It is no wonder why we didn't take a harder stance on their poor human rights record during the Olympics.  We want to keep our "sugar daddy".  
   Speaking of sugar daddies, what is up with the Fed (a non-constitutional entity) bailing out AIG!?!?  I thought that only the Congress could spend our tax dollars.  Don't we get a say in how our money is spent?!?!  I think that if the IRS sent an invoice for all the programs and earmarks that my share of our tax dollars went to every month - I should get to pick which ones I want to pay for and don't put my money toward the ones I don't want to pay for.  Its obvious that Congress and the Fed don't listen to my opinion anyway.  What do you think?

The Point

   If you've been watching Glenn Beck lately, you'll know what I'm talking about.  Ron Paul was on to something when he was talking about economic policies.  The US simply cannot go on the way we are unless we do something about all the entitlements that are being paid out.  My dear mother and others will be mad when I say this - but I think that we might need to come up with a way to "opt out" of social security and medicare all together.  It may have been a good idea at one time to help those seniors who didn't have anything or anyone that they could depend on for financial support and health care assistance.  But as I tried to explain to my mom several times before, I am paying for her social security and medicare.  I will have to hope that there would be even more workers who will be paying into these mandated programs when I reach retirement in order for me to collect anything - because I'll have to use their money and probably their children's money for me to get my benefits.  There aren't going to be enough workers to support the baby boomers and Generation X.  The sad thing is that - once again nobody will have enough huevos to do something.  
   Another thing is that the way our currency is tied to the banking system, we are really in for a rough next 30 years even if we do get some reforms in place.  Basically, China and OPEC owns us.  They hold the note on most of our debt and we are going to have to pay up one of these days.  
   So the point is that - yes we need to get John McCain in office.  Yes we need to grow investments in this country for business.  We need to wean the dollar off the federal reserve system in order to strengthen it.  Drilling for our own oil will help the economy, and will start the process of getting our interests focused on our own country.  Cutting earmarks are a start, but we really should look at getting the government out of the retirement fund and health care business.  
   Finally, we should take a cue from Michael Phelps and start learning Mandarin Chinese.  Because they will have us by the "short and curlies" for a long time to come.

O'Reilly and Obama - "O" My!

   If you haven't been watching O'Reilly's interview with Obama, then you've missed some good exchanges.  I only wish that there was more time to further pursue some of the topics being discussed.  O'Reilly had Obama on the hook about Iraq and the surge - then let him off so they could move on to Afghanistan.  Then again he had him on the hook about the economy - and let him off the hook.  
   I realize that part of it is just simple time constraints, but I have to believe that Bill O'Reilly is a smart TV commentator and knows how to play the ratings game.  I agree that O'Reilly had no choice but to jump at the chance to interview Obama and air the interview just before McCain's acceptance speech and during the following week.  Obama's people aren't stupid, they figured that they could "blunt the bump" in McCain's poll numbers after the convention.  It doesn't look like that mattered much - because McCain did get a bump.  Also, this may even backfire on Obama because it shows how far left he is and how he gets flustered under pressure.  
   So what does it all mean?  McCain should further capitalize on this and try to extend the lead by continuing to expose Obama's radical, liberal, and dangerous views for America.  There are polls out that show foreign countries would rather see Obama in office than McCain.  That idiot British comedian on the MTV awards show didn't help Obama much by pleading for Americans to vote for Obama "for the sake of the world".  Since when did the Socialist, Leftist Euro-scum vote for president?  And who cares what they think anyway!?  The US shouldn't have to seek approval from the rest of the world to protect our interests!  I think they seem to have forgotten their history.  They're free to spew this crap because of the blood of AMERICANS "sacrificed on the altar of Freedom".  
   John McCain is the right choice for America because he knows what works.  Failed Socialist policies of the left have not and will never bring the success and growth we currently enjoy.  I don't want some government agency telling me how to run my life.
