Forgot To Ask

A few observations…

The Republican party has serious problems, but in comparison with what is happening in the Democratic party, they are in good shape. The greatest gift a political season has ever handed to the Republican party is happening now with Obama and Hillary running neck and neck. I can just imagine what will happen at their convention. Too bad it wasn’t in Chicago, then we could really have a rerun of that convention. Wouldn’t that be lovely? Those super delegates will be absolutely the final straw for the Democratic party. They didn’t exist in 1968. Can you imagine what that convention would have been like if they had? Those who don’t know what happened at the Democratic convention in 1968 should look it up by all means.

The Congress acted quickly and got a stimulus package out in record time - something this country really didn’t need, but some of the actions they should take have been put off and put off. What I refer to is the terrorist surveillance program that they are fighting over. Seems the Democrats want to let lawyers at the phone systems that cooperated with the CIA for freedom’s sake and the safety of American citizens prior to the time they were given permission to do this. The Democratic party loves lawyers and the dissension they sow. One of the major things wrong with this country is the judicial system and how they allow lawyers to file lawsuits on any and everything. It is a drawback on business and government. Lawyers are in the league with CEOs of major corporations as to how much money they can can soak the stockholders with and private citizens treated the same way by lawyers. Is there any wonder that the legislative branch has more lawyers than any other profession? We not only have lawyers here trying to screw up America, but we also have idiot lawyers going to other countries to defend people like Saddam. As far as I can see, the major things wrong with law in this country is lawyers.

Now I even saw an idiot lawyer all upset because the six terrorists are being tried by the military and being done in GITMO. Even if it was military personnel doing crimes out of the country or within the military bases and no citizens were involved, they would also be tried by the military on bases or overseas. Are the terrorists so much better than our servicemen? After the terrorists are tried, if they don’t get death sentences, they ought to send them to Fort Leavenworth, the same as our servicemen would be. Don’t think they would last long. There is another military prison in Portsmouth. They could send them there.

Mrs. Clinton talking about Obama, saying politicians should be what they say and responsible for what they have done. Does she mean Bill and his sexual peccadilloes? Heard a Democratic female analyst saying that Bill was just being gallant in defending Mrs. Clinton. Gallantry would be the last thing I would expect from Bill Clinton. Can’t you just imagine Bill on a horse jousting and wearing Mrs. Clinton’s colors? Sir Galahad he is not, but more like the Black Knight. See attached:

Your distinct personality, The Black Knight, might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. Your overriding goal is to win. You approach each task or situation as a contest to be won strategically and efficiently. Because you can control your feelings, it is not unusual for you to charm, as well as successfully delegate tasks and responsibilities to the more emotional types. You are often concerned with what’s in it for you. You seldom involve yourself in activities where you can not foresee a reward for your investment or effort. On the positive side, you can be analytically empathic and logically persuasive. On the negative side, you may be unemotionally manipulative as well as impulsive. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today’s corporate kingdoms.

His attacks against Obama are carefully considered, measured, and planned to do the maximum damage. He is the master of lying, using lies and innuendo in his attacks, and as of right now, they are succeeding.

Obama needs his own Goebbels. Mrs. Clinton has a lot of them - the best being her husband. Mrs. Clinton and her husband seem to be based on the old concept of divide and conquer. The liberal media and the Democrats have been pushing McCain for the Republican nomination. It may be working. Think about their motive. Do we want to elect someone who the Democrats favor? I say that they are hoping to destroy the Republican party by splitting away the Conservatives who will not vote for McCain - another instance where they are using divide and conquer.

Now Huckabee is attacking Romney as McCain’s surrogate, I am sure setting himself up to be the Vice Presidential nominee. With a McCain/Huckster ticket, it will be the demise of the Republican party. The Democratic party can surely defeat a faux Republican ticket. As the primary continues, I can see Edwards becoming a stalking horse for Mrs. Clinton. Note their private meeting after the last Democratic debate. Carl Cameron, political guru on Fox, is in his own way trying to push McCain and down Romney. It has become so apparent it makes me wonder if he shouldn’t be called a member of the liberal media.

Bill Clinton saying he heard a culinary workers union official threaten a worker to vote for Obama or else - this is, I am sure, one out-and-out lie. The Clintons will stoop at nothing to win. Bill is licking his chops with the idea of becoming a stealth President. God save the country from this! Anyone who thinks this wouldn’t happen, I have a Great Wall of China to sell you. Bill is so mad at the media for not helping Hillary enough - poor baby.

One thing I have noticed this time versus when he was President - he gets more red-faced and mad now than then because he doesn’t have a staff around him to protect and use the words “out of context” for his cover. Let’s face it, women and Perot put Bill in, and now he is out trying to use his charm to help Hillary get the women’s votes.

Hillary is showing her softer side and appearing on tv teardrop shows to enhance her appeal to women voters, and it seems to be working, God forbid. Another thing that seems to be working is the Clintons’ spokesmen bringing up the race issue and Obama’s drug use when he was young, and which he has admitted to. The Clintons believe all’s fair in war and politics. In fact, they have a war room in their headquarters.

Just saw the Nevada caucuses and the South Carolina primaries - a few observations… The Huckster blaming his loss on Fred Thompson and also said McCain ran a decent campaign and inferred that Romney didn’t because he and Thompson brought up the Huckster’s record. I think both he and McCain’s record should be brought up repeatedly. The media and the debate moderators had a lot to do with Fred Thompson’s numbers.

Thompson was also responsible partly, but there is no question that the liberal media was pushing Huckabee, as he would be the easiest to beat by Democrats, and of course McCain has always been a media darling since he was beat by Bush, as they HATE Bush with a passion. Even Fox went along with the derision accorded Thompson. I wish he had enough funds to continue the race and would expand on his message. If he could do this, and the media gave him an even break, he would be the nominee.

As far as I am concerned, the only thing I welcomed from the South Carolina primary is that the lesser of two evils won. At least I might vote for McCain over Hillary. But if the Huckster won the nomination, I would vote for Hillary over him. One thing about Huckabee is he sure can talk. All those people from Hope, Arkansas can talk. Note the Huckster’s concession speech and Clinton’s speech at the Democratic convention in 1988. Hope, Arkansas is also the capital of sleaze. Hillary lived there.

Those who believe that the Clintons had nothing to do with the lawsuit about moving the caucus out of where the Democrats had set it up to be also believe that the Earth is flat. Sure is funny - everything was going along swimmingly until the culinary workers union gave their endorsement to Obama. Never saw Bill’s face so flushed since the Wallace interview. Sure hope he doesn’t have a heart attack.

I saw Hillary’s stewardess, or flight attendants act. All I will say is I would suggest she doesn’t do an encore performance. The Clintons will continue to use dirty tactics. They will just be more careful in how they use innuendo accidental remarks, but not accidentally. Bill will continue to complain about the media being unfair. He can’t understand why the media’s love affair with him is cooling. The only media completely in love with the Clintons now is the Clinton News Network. You can tell they are by their polls - Hillary is always up far more than any other poll. There is no doubt that polls DO influence. That is why I always dissect polls to see if some pollster is trying to influence the vote. Anyone who thinks pollsters don’t do this believe the cow did jump over the moon.

Now let’s go over the records of John McCain and Mike Huckabee, even though they think to mention their records is an ATTACK. John McCain worked to take free speech out of politics with Feingold - you remember, the McCain/Feingold Act. He worked with Teddy Kennedy, the Olympic swimmer, to try to give 12 to 20 million Latinos amnesty. This was scotched by the American people raising their voices in a louder manner than had been done previously.

McCain voted against Bush’s tax cuts twice. Now he says he would vote to extend them (he says). He said he would close the border (he says). He talks about all his years in the Senate. What did HE do? A lot (he says). He did work with the Democrats quite extensively (he says) and (he did). Guess who helped to keep drilling from being conducted in ANWR? (He did). He always brings up his war record. I know REAL war heroes who would NEVER use it for advancement. He talks about being a straight shooter. I guess he proves this by how he opposed Bush at every turn with the Democrats. He says he is a straight shooter (he says). He talks about how honest he is - let’s not forget the Keating Five. Somehow I think this record needs to be examined.

Topics to cover and ponder over in the political campaigns:

• Hillary says the surge was to give space and time for the Iraqis to get their legislation program together and they didn’t. Leaves me to wonder - there was no obstacle in the way of a Democratic Congress, and yet they got nothing done.
• I saw Hillary on Meet the Press with Tim Russert. She must have used the word “context” twenty times. The word means environment setting and parts of a discourse. The word can be used to be able to deny and to cover up, as Huckabee did when he brought up Romney being a Mormon - how crude.
• Senator John Cornyn presented an amendment that would have permanently banned gang members, terrorists, sex offenders, alien absconders, those convicted of domestic violence, and aliens convicted of three DUIs in the United States from becoming legal immigrants. The amendment was defeated by 51-46 and guess what? McCain voted against it!
• Former Senator Tim Hutchinson from Arkansas comparing Huckabee to Reagan made me want to vomit.
• John McCain and the Huckster protests their records being brought up. That does not compute.
• Bob Johnson of BET bringing up Obama’s use of cocaine when young. Andrew Cuomo, New York State Attorney General, saying Obama’s speeches were “Shuck and Jive”. Bill Shaheen, co-chair of Hillary’s campaign inferring that Obama was a drug pusher and Bill Clinton calling Obama’s remarks a fairy tale and you tell me the Clinton administration is not racists and pigs fly!
• The Clintons claim that they have done so much for African Americans. Can you tell me what? I know Bill played golf with some high and mighty African-Americans who are isolated from their African-American people in the lower class. Bush placed more African-Americans in his administration, including Secretary of State Rice and Secretary of Defense Colin Powell and many others.
• The average of polls produced by Real Clear Politics include polls by CNN, Zogby, USA Today/Gallup, NBC/WSJ, and Rasmussen and the average is heavily influenced by the Clinton News Network. See attached:

Concerning the debates in New Hampshire - I was already watching for Charlie Gibson to try to attack Republicans and show the Democrats to advantage, which is usual with their slant on the news. I was surprised. His was the BEST and completely unbiased debate of this political season, and I must say CNN’s was the worst. I was struck by both McCain and the Huckster not answering when asked about their record, but giving a long dissertation to avoid answering the questions. This is the first election ever, to my knowledge, where someone’s record can’t be discussed, and if you do it’s called an attack and leads to personal attacks as a rebuttal.

I was very impressed by the focus group of voters that Frank Luntz fielded. I hope that the other voters in New Hampshire are just as perceptive as those on Fox’s forum conducted by Chris Wallace. I’m afraid, however, that there are those voters who have the mindset “I voted for McCain the last time, and I will vote for him again.” I think there should be another state prior to Iowa and New Hampshire to give more balance to choosing the parties nominees.

I saw one of the talking heads on tv saying Romney didn’t win the forum debate, or whatever you want to call it, saying McCain and Giuliani did better. I use to respect this analyst’s views, but no longer. In fact, I have lost respect for 90 percent of the talking heads. So many of them have their own axe to grind. Another thing of interest to me is the way two of the three Presidential candidates, or three of the five, gang up on another candidate, as to Edward and Obama on Hillary or McCain, Huckabee, and Giuliani against Romney - I don’t respect these kind of attacks. Since I was a kid, ganging up on one was fought against and considered wrong.

What I would like to see is someone saying “I stand by my record” and telling what their record was instead of trying to obscure their record because it was not a good record. Those I have reference to, of course, are McCain and the Huckster. Should either of these win the party’s nomination, I will vote for Obama. I saw on Drudge where Hillary is close to getting out because of lack of money. That will never be true as long as there is a China.

Huckabee won - what else would you expect from someone with a devious mind? I guess the media has forgotten about him poisoning the well with the Mormon comment and putting this out repeatedly by his minions. The media was all concerned about how McCain was treated in South Carolina in the election of 2000, but never mentioned the underhanded things that McCain’s people pulled in Michigan following South Carolina. My perception of this caucus does not agree in many ways with the opinions of the talking heads on tv.

I do agree with them on Clinton’s problems coming in third place with the all-out effort of all the big guns, including hubby Bill, who Hillary stood by for all his endeavors with bimbos of all kinds. Sometimes they were willing, but the other times took rape and sexual harassment. She even stood by twelve years, willing to have him dally with Gennifer Flowers. If she stands by this slap in the face from him, will she stand by foreign countries taking advantage of America? Will she care too much about world opinion and allow these things to continue to America’s detriment as her husband did? There is no doubt she allowed it to happen, with her eye on the Presidency and NOT with Christian charity. She accused Obama of wanting to be President. There is no doubt she had her eye on it for decades, much longer than he thought about it - kindergarten does not apply.

Just read that the Deputy Defense Secretary, Gordon England, fired a Pentagon specialist on Islamic law because he crossed a Muslim on England’s staff. Seems that England and the Muslim on his staff have an outreach program to Muslim groups. Sorry to say, but this leaves me very anxious and concerned for the safety of Americans. This also makes me wonder if Mr. England could be another Richard Hansen and the father of the leaks of classified intelligence to the New York Times. I think that it would behoove Mr. Gates, the Secretary of Defense, to investigate this matter. Also, I think the new Attorney General, instead of appointing an outside council to investigate the CIA interrogations, he should have that be done to his Deputy Secretary.

Just went to the grocery store again today. Prices are up dramatically, AGAIN, over the past week. Anyone reading this, please check your local grocery prices, and if you notice what I have, please call your Congressman - tell them to stop the ethanol fiasco - drill for oil in Alaska off our coast - and start extracting oil from the oil shale in the western states. If you can’t see any or hardly any prices going up, chalk me up for a nut and forget about it. However, if you do find what I say is true, then follow through. What this reminds me of is the book and movie Children of the Corn.

Watching the stock market these days, it’s easy to see by the fluctuations in the market that an SEC investigation into those large corporations manipulating the market with computer buying and selling should be due. These practices will not encourage Joe or Mary citizen to participate. I am amazed by how they take the same factors to say it’s time to buy, then shortly afterward the same factor appears and they say “It’s time to sell.” Exploiting of the economy for their greed should be a matter of great concern to the SEC. If you were a conspiracy theorist, you might say the SEC is in league with them or taking a few bribes, and if they are participating in buying and selling stocks, they should be prosecuted. The manipulating of the oil futures should also be investigated.

With the ethanol fiasco, I can imagine what the manipulations of corn, wheat, and soybean futures will do to the cost of food in the coming months. Beef, pork, lamb, and chicken meats will reach much higher prices. Milk, eggs, and cheese and all products in which they will be used will increase in price. I wonder if they might consider putting the cost of food back in the inflation index. Is it any wonder that they took the cost of food out of the inflation index?

Like everyone else, I have been watching the election and the polls. There is only one thing I will say for sure - if Huckabee gets the nomination, I will stay home for the first time since voting for Eisenhower in 1956. I would also stay home if Ron Paul got the nomination, which is highly unlikely. The Democrats have been using hate Bush, fear, and doom and gloom in their messages to their voters. As a party, they have always been the party of pessimism and despair.

Here we all are on pins and needles waiting for the outcome of this fake election in Iowa. I know it wasn’t Hillary that crossed the picket line to appear on a late night show - it was the Huckster on Jay Leno. I guess he don’t think social Conservatives or evangelists belong to unions. I think he has put the evangelists in Iowa on the same par as the Arkansas evangelists. I hope they prove him wrong. Arkansas, especially Hope, Arkansas, must have a training program for slick politicians. First there was Slick Willy, now there is Slick Huckster.

They talk about Hillary’s negatives. Huckabee’s are going to be a lot worse if he wins the nomination - God help the nation!
