Wow. From Messiah to plastic car Jesus in the course of about ten days is truly an amazing feat. John McCain has got to be one of the smartest politicians I’ve seen in the modern day. One Vice Presidential nominee and his opponent is in the toilet. The best part of all, his opposition is doing it to themselves from the top down.

Barack Obama joked about putting lipstick on pig and it’s still a pig. At the time he said it, his audience both laughed and applauded. Of course what was fresh in the minds of everyone paying attention to such things was Sarah Palin’s joke about the difference between a Rottweiler and a Hockey Mom (lipstick.) To be fair it’s very possible that Obama’s audience is so out of reality that they don’t pay attention enough to see the connection.

But I’m guessing that Obama was referring to Palin and knew it at the time no matter how much he doubts it. His defense amounted to unfair coverage by the media as if they’re actually opposed to him in any way, shape or form. I would be interested to see how Obama would react if the press went after him the way they’re going after Governor Palin: interviewing everyone he knows, going through twenty/thirty year old police records and sending armies of reporters to his home town to dig up everything about him. Last I heard, the press was telling us how sick they were of Jeremiah Wright (cause religion shouldn’t matter) and Bill Ayres (shouldn’t judge people by their friends) and how disinterested they are in what exactly he did as a community organizer.

The press only seems to be interested if you disagree with them.

And it gets even nastier still. South Carolina Democrat Party Chairwoman Carol Fowler said about Palin’s qualifications (and I quote):

"whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn't had an abortion."

So can I assume that Fowler got her job because she had an abortion? I mean, Dems are all for the “right” for a woman to kill her unborn child. And moreover, is it mean and out of line for me to even ask?

I think it’s at least tasteless.

It’s almost as tasteless as the feminists and what they’re saying about Palin. For the first time I can ever remember feminists are asking why a woman isn’t staying at home raising her kid instead of pursuing a career. Next they’ll be asking why she wears shoes and isn’t cooking for her man.

Unfortunately for them, I think the rank and file feminists have left them but they haven’t turned around to notice yet. They continue to preach on their blogs about how Palin being added to the ticket isn’t changing any of their minds even as just about every poll no matter how loaded shows the opposite. But if they’re like every other liberal board out there, they threw off everyone who disagrees with them. So it’s actually not to surprising that they’re completely out of the loop.

But if that isn’t enough, Matt Damon is now horning in. In an interview he said Palin the idea of Palin being one step away from the presidency is “like a bad Disney movie.” Damon almost sneered as he talked about the small town Palin was mayor of. He then went on to ramble about how he’s worried about Palin dealing with people like Putin and how concerned he is that Palin might believe dinosaurs walked the Earth four thousand years ago as if Russia is invading and threatening it’s neighbors because Americans dare exercise their right to freedom of Religion.  

Oprah refuses to interview Palin. Officially she claims that she doesn’t want her show to get involved in politics…unless it’s during the primaries, for a black candidate that she supports is what she really means I guess. She interviewed Obama. What was that if it wasn’t taking her show into the political realm? And we all know she backs him cause she’s had fundraisers at her home his election.

And yet she continues to lecture us about how officially this and that. I’m sorry – we’re not that stupid. Not even your audience is dumb enough to not think you’re in the tank for Obama. Yeah it’s your show and yes you can do anything you want to with it. I’m fine with that. What I find insulting is your condescending statement telling me that I’m not actually seeing what I’m seeing.

Oprah’s show is popular with white women, a demographic that Obama has dropped twenty points with in the last week. So maybe I’m not the only one who notices.

And leftists wonder why we call them out of touch elitists. The Constitution sets no requirements on education for any of its elected offices that I’m aware of. I suppose that it’s possible I missed one.

It’s so funny that the left is suddenly so interested in experience. The guy at the top of their ticket doesn’t have any. Palin might not have much, but she’s not going to be running the show. That aside though, just a few months ago I was called a sexist for not supporting Hillary. I laid out exactly why I was opposed to Hillary, but that didn’t matter to most libs I heard from who continued to call me a sexist for daring to oppose a woman.

But none of Palin’s critics are sexist. Just like although they sneer at the state of Alaska and the people who live there, they’re still out for the little guy. I’m still floored by Puff Daddy’s question about whether or not there are black people in Alaska – talk about racist. In light of that, would it be racist for me to say that yes there are black people in Alaska and unlike blacks in the “lower forty eight” they smoke their pot legally?

The only upshot to this is that they’re destroying the chosen one’s chances. Two weeks ago he was leading in every poll. The current figures have him losing in a lot of polls – and at least one has him losing by ten points. He’s in quite a quagmire and I doubt his speaking skills are going to get him out.

Don’t get me wrong – it’s a long way to the election yet and a lot of things can happen. In fact, I’d say something big has already happened.
