Authority

Being drunk and hungover are the only subjects on which he can truly be called an authority. There was a picture of him on the Drudge report today in which he looked like the town drunk.

The British tabloids are already saying Laura's moved out, it's over, it's all show for the cameras. They say it's because of his affair with Condi but there has to be more than that. Laura said she'd leave him if he started drinking again and he looks pretty bad in that Drudge pic among other recent pics of him. Must be holy hell living with him boozing it up while under the influence of all his mood stabilizing meds. Maybe he'll bless us all with a breakdown or a drunken dash out of the White House accusing Abe Lincoln's ghost of haunting him.

Kiss Ass Post

Obama gets crowd of 200,000 in Germany. The American mainstream press gushes. They might sell a couple extra papers.

Have a May Day rally in this country and not only will it be under reported, if at all, politicians like Obama run and hide. The only government officials present end up being the FBI or the overzealous police.

The more acceptable he gets to the media, the more I worry for our future.

Who The Hell Cares

About this? Now you'll start somekind of irrelevant blog war and tabloid type headlines about the campaign making him old before his time.

How about you talk about relevant things here, like last Friday's Congressional hearing on preliminary fact finding leading to impeachment and whether or not there are grounds to impeach: there are. Salon should be talking about them.

More Blame Game?

To get out of his traffic ticket and possible court appearance?He has proven that he is just another untrustworthy pawn of this administration. I'm sure Dick Cheney will send him a 99 cent hallmark card.

More 'Uppity' Elitist Talk

Elitist is just another word for 'uppity'. 'Uppity' is racist code for someone who is trying to achieve above their GOD given station. Just more hate spiel from the elitist media.

Definitely elitist. I wonder if Fox will continue to keep Rove on the payroll now that he's been cited for contempt of Congress. Of course he'll never see the inside of a jail cell. He has all the incriminating evidence against Bush and Cheney. He's probably keeping a copy in Rupert Murdoch's vault too.

They Don't Want Drugs Legalized

Citibank and other large banks get big profits by laundering drug money. To say they aren't is totally naive. The revenue brought in by drugs, even on the conservative side is equivalent to cargo ships full of merchandise. That's a lot of illegal dough.

People in 'high' places are making huge profits off drugs, all tax free. Two words the very rich and big banks looooove!

At one time it was impossible to find hundred dollar bills that didn't test positive for cocaine residue in certain large metropolitan areas.

As pointed out here, law enforcement organizations like the FBI have had to relax their screening process because they can't find applicants who are completely drug free. It's another bad joke of this sick messed up society.

Evil Emperor Speaks

He'll probably announce the bombing of Iran and the suspension of the Constitution. He'll probably ascend to his proper throne as the one really in charge. Blackwater forces will surround the arena and take over the capitol. An emperor is born.

Polls aren't reliable this time around

You can't rely on polls this time around. Karl Rove has been gaming them since the beginning of the election cycle. They don't ask relevant questions, or they are set up with a bias.

A poll is simply a tool for big media to see if it's propaganda is working. It cannot be used as an accurate guage of public opinion as the questions asked are skewed to a preset conclusion.

Original article: The attention-driven Warren

Kiss His Holy Ass

Yes, it IS all about him, not Jesus or God or how the candidates would actually help the country. It was about him getting free media play and selling CD's for Rick Warren, I mean Jesus.

He got the candidates to kiss his holy ass so he can elbow his way into the top when Billy Graham kicks the bucket. He also places himself in line for some of that good government money they will have to shell out for continued 'faith based iniatives'. Continued because Jesus will not be happy if Pat Robertson's government checks stop coming.

Heart of Republican Country

This church is smack dab in the heart of Republican Country. South Orange County, California. It doesn't get any whiter or more Republican than this place folks! People still drive around with Bush Cheney bumper stickers and are PROUD of it!

This church bought out mega cineplexes so his congregants could take 'sinners' to see Mel Gibson's 'Passion of Christ'. The man knows how to market and his followers aren't going to pay attention to anyone but Rick Warren. It doesn't matter who heard what or who said what, if Rick says it's so, that's all his flock needs to hear.

Smoke Bombs all around

He sells his flock the Republican Dream as blessed by Jesus. His flock has seen their homes devalue anywhere from 18-40%. I'm sure some of them are struggling as this is a very expensive area to live.

Warren needed to bring these candidates here to show his clout with God and snowball his flock into thinking he'll actually do something to help them. Obama and McCain had to come to kiss the ring and reassure the flock they'll do everything they can to retain home values and keep the economy going in the name of Jesus.

Smoke and mirrors all around. All the pigs were at this trough making nice and playing civil.

She needs Hillary

Oprah needs to get Hillary on her show,not Palin. She needs to show her base she listens to them and smooth over their ruffled feathers over her support for Obama during the primary. She and Hill'y need sit down and have a real girl to girl talk so that Oprah's base loves her again.
