We once were told that every time Obama spoke, an angel had an orgasm. Now we are told that every time Palin speaks a holy child is conceived. A new superstar has arisen, whose golden tongue sends shivering ecstasy through the quaking bodies of the believers.

My! My! My! She is the spirit of evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson incarnated with the guts of Maggie Thatcher into the body of Dolly Partin.
The elements of tragedy and hysteria are there. They flare occasionally as some woman breaks under the vigil and sobs. Others in the crowd remains speechless and spellbound. And others catch the spirit and speak in tongues, consumed by the holy spirit of Republican ecstasy.

I went once as a child to a hellfire and brimstone tent revival in New Awlins. There were so many souls saved that night, freed from the power of Satan. You just had to be there to catch that awesome spirit. So I know full well what transpired in St. Paul. Yeah, in Sa-a-a-aint PAUL, Mini-Soto. PRAISE McCAIN! Hallelujah! The GOP is saved and redeemed. All is forgiven. God said all those sins are washed away!

And, then you talk to a doctor and they are alarmed and often scared about strains they cant even identify, so the call goes out to the CDC.
It would be nice to be able to say "I'm having a new heart or cancer treatment at Tri-City", but all too often you hear "I'm going to Loma Linda for a new experimental treatment".

For over a year he campaigned, fought off every kind of attack, and won the nomination. He was chosen by millions of Democrats. Right or wrong, he won his candidacy the old fashioned way. Now, let's look at Ms Palin's nomination. It seems she was hardly investigated, even by the Republican party, and certainly not by the FBI. We're pretty sure that John McCain didn't even have her on his short list. We have no idea WHO actually decided, in what back room, that she should be VP. No debates. No public speeches on anything outside Alaska. No competition. Not deemed ready for a conversation with a reporter until two weeks AFTER her appointment, and then only because of intense pressure. Good grief! If she becomes President because of some terrible medical crisis, will her "handlers" tell Putin, Ahmadinejab, the Generals in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the world that she's not quite ready to talk with them? Are we electing our leaders or are we deciding that her "handlers", whoever they may be, should run the nation?

Let me repost what I discovered yesterday, after Oh Please told me Joe Biden had asthma, and that's why he couldn't serve in the miitary.

From Yesterday....
Joe Biden's yearbook is on display at Archmere Academy in Claymont, where Biden played sports and was president of his class at the private catholic school?
Played sports in high school, then "later" after the sports, he came down with asthma?
Your kidding me, right?

If you go to the Archmere Academy website, under Alumni, they write this:
"ALUMNI IN THE NEWS

Sen. Joseph R. Biden, Jr., from the class of 1961, was named the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee by Sen. Barack Obama on Saturday, August 23, 2008. Sen. Biden attended Archmere from 1957 through 1961. As a student, he played football and basketball; served as president of his class junior and senior years; and was a member of the varsity Club, whose purpose was to promote school spirit. As an alumnus, he maintained strong ties with Archmere and was an active member of the community. He was elected to his first of six Senate terms in 1972. In February 1973, he arranged to bring astronauts from Apollo XVII to speak at Archmere."

Asthma, huh?

Your point is well taken about asthma during combat, my son is currently serving, asthma suffer, under control with medication.
But, the question I have is this:
He got the deferments first, asthma was not an issue, until later...
LATER, after the deferments.
That makes a difference, in my opinion.
Plus, they say he played both Football & Basketball.
Don't you think, if it had been a real, and ongoing issue, that would have been the first choice for not serving?
I know it would have been mine.
Just common sense.

Marlowe wrote on Sep 9, 2008 9:31 AM:I will repeat something that I think is very important in this election. Both McCain and Obama campaigned for about 18 months for their party's nod. This involved dozens of appearances in all kinds of settings and venues. They talked to the American people by the tens or hundreds of thousands in person, and by the millions on mass media. They went head to head in numerous debates. They had every move and word and associate of their lifetimes examined in detail by the press and the people. They were attacked mercilessly for reasonable and unreasonable things. And after this grueling process, McCain and Obama won their parties' nomination. Millions of Republicans and Democrats voiced their opinions and McCain and Obama were the winners. We've heard both speak about every issue before the nation, many times. And we decided on them. Now if anyone wants to compare this to the process that gave us Sarah Palin, I welcome the effort, but who would offer such a foolish thing? Hey, Palin might be great, but none of us know, really, a thing about her. This is why we have to trump up "important facts" about her, that she was CiC of the Alaska Guard, served on an energy board, etc. We have a minute resume and no experience with her. At least Biden is a well known entity and a veteran himself of long, national campaigns. What is Palin? "A strong woman" Uh, ok, that's true, and this means...what? The feeble efforts to compare the "mayor" with the "community organizer" miss the point. Obama has been out there, competing on the national stage, for a couple of years. Palin? Nada. That's a difference that really means something in a democracy. One has been tested thoroughly, by opponents, by FoxNews, by the people. The other? Nada.

MAMA likes the sound of it (12:28 AM). That’s GOOD! I mean REAL GOOD!! Sounds like the name of a book -- or an opera. That’s it! An opera about the ‘Queen of the North’, folk heroine from Wasilla. Cast of thousands like Cecil B. DeMille.
Thank you, blogger for ‘Queen of the North’.

We can recreate all those great old epic movies by Cecil, with the new super heroine from Wasilla. Unlimited possibilities.
We can start with ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’, about the GOP convention in Saint Paul, followed by War of the Worlds, about Palin’s campaign to conquer Earth.

When Worlds Collide will depict the rebel voices of reason and science pitted against the forces of Pallin’s creationism and blind faith.

Sampson & Delilah, the story of old warrior McCain bringing down the evil temple of Congress, crushing all the GOP evil doers inside. Change is coming.

You may not remember DeMille’s ‘Story of the Doctor from Wasilla’, but you surely must remember Reap the Wild Wind, in which Sarah goes out across the heartland preaching Abstinence Only.

And, Oh, Lordy. There’s McCain as ‘The Buccaneer’ and Palin as the ‘Plainswoman’. Such drama! Such folklore. Such heroes.

And McBomb is starred in that great tale ‘The Crusades’, in which he launches a nuke attack against Iran and those nasty Arabs. Actually, the script writer got it wrong. The Iranians are Persians, not Arabs, but it don’t matter if you get the facts wrong, just so you McBomb lobs the big one, after which Palin celebrates by acting in the new DeMille’s production of ‘Her Man of War.’

And don’t forget ‘Cleopatra’, starring the buxomy Palin seducing that great American war hero from Arid Zona. Great tragic-comedy tale in which the serpent seals her fate.

And Palin can star in a recasting of that little know DeMille movie ‘Madam Satan’, turning it into a box office success this time. What a dark tour de force.

And let’s see the new production of ‘The Godless Girl’; and ‘The Road to Yesterday’, in which McPalin reverts America to the yesteryears of the dark ages.

Yes sir-e-e-e, my fellow Merkins. A Star has been Born in the North. And MAMA wouldn’t miss this for nothing!

I know it is hard for those who don't have a deep faith in God to understand where we are coming from. Our faith is so deep that we can never accept gay marriage. We accept gay people as we do anyone else. We love the sinner, but not the sin. Try to understand our ways.

I think the best compromise is to continue with their civil unions and behind closed doors or in the Gay community you can call it what ever you want.

Understand that we don't hate gays. We just want to have our religious belief protected. We feel just as strongly about opposing gay marriage as Gay want us to accept gay marriage. And our religios values are just as dear, but liberal groups want to label us as radical, racist and intolerant. That is just not the case, we are preserving our religious beliefs and values.

God bless you all

In what country's military is he serving? It can't be the U. S. army, navy, marines, coast guard or national guard. None of those branches of service will take you if you have asthma. Can you imagine how badly an asthma attack would compromise not only the sufferer, but his fellow combatants? I have an asthmatic grandchild. Please let me know the name of the medication your son takes that prevents him from having an asthma attack. I'll inform my grandchild's doctor about it so he can write a prescription.

OBAMA MAMA wrote on Sep 9, 2008 11:00 AM:Bravo, Marlowe (9:31 AM)

First off, I like your handle, "MARLOWE".

Mainly because of Philip Marlowe, who was a fictional character created by Raymond Chandler in a series of entertaining novels, including The Big Sleep and The Long Goodbye. Philip Marlowe's was a hardboiled fictional crime fighter back in the 1920s. Doubtless Chandler would write about the hardboiled crime of the McPalin age if he were living today. Underneath the wisecracking, hard drinking, tough private eye, Marlowe was quietly contemplative and philosophical. He enjoyed chess and poetry. While he was not afraid to risk physical harm, he did not dish out violence merely to settle scores. Morally upright, he was not bamboozled by the genre's usual femme fatale, such as Sarah Palin.
MAMA loved Philip MARLOWE.

Well, I digressed. Now to my point -- actually to YOUR point: VETTING. Enjoyed your post at 9:31 AM about VETTING.

The Republicans thought they were gonna pull a fast one, a Dubya trick, and trot out an unknown (like Dubya was), hoist up this cute little firecracker petard Palin, make all the Grand ‘Ol deluded Party bow down without know what she was made of.

Now the whole world is playing fast time catch-up with Palin, and the petard is about to pop like a firecracker. Never blow up a balloon too fast. It is sure to pop.

MAMA got just one thing to add: McKeating himself has never been vetted. Everybody seems to just take the crooked ol’ man’s word about his story. Nobody is researching his dark past. It is veerry long and has some veerry dark chapters. It goes even earlier than McSongbird’s time as a prisoner of war. It goes back to his wanton, wasted youth. But America has a short memory. Nobody remembers the lessons of Vietnam. Nobody remembers the McKeating Five of Arizona and the real estate scandals. It reached right into the herart of San Diego real estate, too. Heck, nobody even talks about the bankruptcy of Silver State bank which happened just last week.

But MAMA remembers all stuff, old and new. MAMA don’t forget. First and foremost we need to vet McCAIN.

Two Cents wrote on Sep 9, 2008 11:23 AM:Ron[-] wrote on Sep 9, 2008 9:21 AM You assume that Biden was using deferments to avoid the draft. God. I hope he was. Millions of American men were trying to avoid Vietnam. But, I do not think he was.I further suggest that the Asthma was not a concern to Biden as it was to the military in 68. Biden was classified 1Y by the Army docs due to asthma. I do not think he was avoiding service in 68. In fact, if Biden was inducted, he would have ended up in the JAG corps as an officer.

Marlowe wrote on Sep 9, 2008 11:29 AM:to to Time @ 10:35. Sorry, but I just don't see that debates about the law of the land compromise your religious beliefs and values at all. If a homosexual couple marries, how, exactly, is your life, beliefs, marriage, religious practice affected? Only if you insist that everyone must live by your beliefs. I do not care one iota if you "accept" gay marriage. That is entirely your business. I don't care one iota if you think homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God. You have a perfect right to these beliefs. You have the right to pray that God will straighten gays out. You have a right to talk to homosexuals and offer them your wishes and opinions. But when you get to the law of the land, your beliefs cannot be imposed on others. It's a very simple concept, isn't it? Why is live and let live so tough for you to get? Why is "no discrimination under the law" such a toughie for you?

Then she needs to note that white women have awakened and creamed Obama. They must be "bitter" women "clinging to their guns and religion."

Well at least MSNBC has standards - can't say the same about the con station Faux News. If Faux followed MSNBC - ALL their newspeople would be out of a job.

Credit wrote on Sep 9, 2008 11:48 AM:sdraoul gets one right. Olberman and Matthews were removed from the MSNBC political team because of blatant bias. Personally, I like Olberman because he is such a nice response to the Faux News pundits. However, fair and balanced? Not so much. I take that into account.

Boat wrote on Sep 9, 2008 12:10 PM:Ron: I wouldn't keep beating on the "Biden deferment drum" too much longer if I were you. Take a look at the New Hampshire Gazette's "chickenhawk database." The right far outweighs the left in representation. And, it is true, Biden would not be allowed in any branch of the military if he had asthma. I am a veteran and a former Respiratory Therapist. My sister-in-law was immediately discharged from the Army when it was discovered that she had asthma.

Marlowe - that is the name of the character in "Heart of Darkness" who goes up the river. Cooincidence?

raoul is right wrote on Sep 9, 2008 12:17 PM:Incredibly, as I read in the papers today, lots of white women ARE flocking to McCain/Palin. This could be a little flash in the pan or it could stick. It's an anti-feminist surge, though they'd never say so or even realize it. Some might just want a woman. Some might feel that they can be PC now by having a "minority" person to vote for so they don't have to vote for that Black guy. But more, I'd bet, are feeling that people are picking on poor Sarah and they want to come to her defense and rescue. This is the anti-feminist part, of course, that it's no fair to attack a woman. Regardless, raoul is often right about the American electorate because he knows that sheer idiocy usually holds sway here. Bush's stupidity and inability to talk was hailed as a good thing. Clinton had to pretend he was stupid to win votes, playing the part of Bubba in fear of being detected as an intelligent guy. Obama's IQ and unwillingness to play dumb might well cost him the presidency. It's no wonder the American voter is the laughingstock of the world.

For most of us, that should bring up a red flag or two, and give you just cause to ignore that individual.

hardtack wrote on Sep 9, 2008 12:23 PM:Surely, Wanda Prosser means “celebrate the original intent of the Constitution” – not what’s left of the Constitution.

If we think words like “promote the general welfare” is all politicians and activist judges need to justify a War on poverty and a War on Drugs – and all the un-Constitutional baggage those programs carried with them – then why not the War on Terrorism and the Patriot Act?

If, in the majority opinion, the Constitution permits government to seize and redistribute private property and regulate our freedom to trade (both labor and product), then why, in those same opinions, would government not be allowed to invade our personal privacy and set aside our rights of free speech, press, and habeas corpus – in the name of “general welfare”?

I believe the Genie has been let out of the Constitutional bottle, and I don’t think we will ever put it back.

As for mocking religion and "being ignorant on things I don't understand".....I have every right.
I grew up with religion, bible study, fellowship, and worship etc.., and have red the bible many times. I have also read The Quran and The Torah, so I think I know a little something about religion.
That is one of the reasons I have NO USE for organized relions or religious zealots.
I have never seen so many hypocrites than those of faith....lol. Born agains and ex-druggies and alcoholics are even worse.
Thankfully, I have recovered from the religious non-sense...maybe you should give it a try.

Our founding fathers came here for a better life; a life not controlled by the Church of England.

Separation of church and state --- yes.

The majority protects the minority be it religion, race, age, sex, etc. --- yes.

The writer (10:35 AM) quotes Colossians 2:8. Writer you need to realize there is better up-to-date information.

If you wish to continue in the world of the dark ages, crusades, old church wars then and current religious wars, that is your choice. This means you are QUOTE " ... radical, racist and intolerant." [your words]. ENDQUOTE.
It means you are not educated, not interested in truth, facts, science, math, logic, and 21st century life.

Because of religion, more people have died since the beginning of time to now.

Read the Constitution. We all have the same rights. Women can vote, homosexuals can vote.

Constitution comes before church.

Your personal religious beliefs and values belong at your home and church.
