Obama as Fear Mongrel

Feb09
2009
Leave a Comment

Obama said on the campaign trail that the politics of fear must – and would – end.

But in order to sell his stimulus package, he has been predicting all sorts of superlative dire scenarios if the bill is not passed.

Such as this gem: “If Congress does not pass the stimulus bill, every American citizen will starve to death.”

Somebody explain to me how this is different from Bush’s rhetoric that justified extreme counter-terrorism measures?

Hillary is NOT Breaking Away

May07

I hear that college-aged and other young, educated voters favor Obama, while Hillary’s gotten support from high school educated, blue-collar voters.

In Indiana, that means Clinton got the cutter vote.

Obama doesn’t get support from the townies. The IU frat guys in Bloomington support him.

Geez, it sucks to be on the same side as those pricks who picked on Moocher.

(this post tried to create humor by alluding to the 1979 film “Breaking Away.”)

Hillary Ixnays Tax Doc Release

Feb13
2008
Leave a Comment

Hillary Clinton said she would not release her income tax returns unless she secures the Democratic presidential nomination. [ See story ]

That puts voters in next week’s primaries in a real dilemma: vote for change, or find out if pantsuits are deductible.
