Ok, now we know why they have been hiding her from the press all this time.

She doesn't have her own solution to the crisis and doesn't even know the record of her running mate. 

People, if McCain wins, it will be a good idea to keep him frozen and preserved every time he goes to sleep and pray very hard that nothing happens to him through his term. Maybe the McCain people should call the Mubarak people: Those fuckers know how to preserve a really old President.

Get her someone who knows economics, quick. I know that Biden is an idiot, but he ain't ignorant, and that's her problem right now! 

As if this election isn't enough of a TV show drama, McCain throws in a TWIST!

Tactically, it's smart. It breaks the Obama momentum, and takes the leadership initiative on the issue. But let's face it. It's a gimmick. McCain will debate, but he will come back, appearing to work for the country, and will change the format of the debate at the last minute to the economy instead of foreign policy, throwing a wrench in Obama's preparation for the debate. Plus, if they work something out, McCain gets credit, they don;t work something out, McCain will lambast Obama for not coming with him and making it work. It's cynical, dirty and politics at its best.

LOVE IT!

She was supposed to talk to the anti A.J. rally, but they canceled her
because Hillary was attending. Here are her remarks regardless:

I am honored to be with you and with leaders from across this great
country — leaders from different faiths and political parties united in
a single voice of outrage.

Tomorrow, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will come to New York — to the heart
of what he calls the Great Satan — and speak freely in this, a country
whose demise he has called for.

Ahmadinejad may choose his words carefully, but underneath all of
the rhetoric is an agenda that threatens all who seek a safer and freer
world. We gather here today to highlight the Iranian dictator's
intentions and to call for action to thwart him.

He must be stopped.

The world must awake to the threat this man poses to all of us.
Ahmadinejad denies that the Holocaust ever took place. He dreams of
being an agent in a "Final Solution" — the elimination of the Jewish
people. He has called Israel a "stinking corpse" that is "on its way to
annihilation." Such talk cannot be dismissed as the ravings of a madman
— not when Iran just this summer tested long-range Shahab-3 missiles
capable of striking Tel Aviv, not when the Iranian nuclear program is
nearing completion, and not when Iran sponsors terrorists that threaten
and kill innocent people around the world.

The Iranian government wants nuclear weapons. The International
Atomic Energy Agency reports that Iran is running at least 3,800
centrifuges and that its uranium enrichment capacity is rapidly
improving. According to news reports, U.S. intelligence agencies
believe the Iranians may have enough nuclear material to produce a bomb
within a year.

The world has condemned these activities. The United Nations
Security Council has demanded that Iran suspend its illegal nuclear
enrichment activities. It has levied three rounds of sanctions. How has
Ahmadinejad responded? With the declaration that the "Iranian nation
would not retreat one iota" from its nuclear program.

So, what should we do about this growing threat? First, we must succeed in Iraq.
If we fail there, it will jeopardize the democracy the Iraqis have
worked so hard to build, and empower the extremists in neighboring
Iran. Iran has armed and trained terrorists who have killed our
soldiers in Iraq, and it is Iran that would benefit from an American
defeat in Iraq.

If we retreat without leaving a stable Iraq, Iran's nuclear
ambitions will be bolstered. If Iran acquires nuclear weapons — they
could share them tomorrow with the terrorists they finance, arm, and
train today. Iranian nuclear weapons would set off a dangerous regional
nuclear arms race that would make all of us less safe.

But Iran is not only a regional threat; it threatens the entire
world. It is the no. 1 state sponsor of terrorism. It sponsors the
world's most vicious terrorist groups, Hamas and Hezbollah. Together,
Iran and its terrorists are responsible for the deaths of Americans in
Lebanon in the 1980s, in Saudi Arabia in the 1990s, and in Iraq today.
They have murdered Iraqis, Lebanese, Palestinians, and other Muslims
who have resisted Iran's desire to dominate the region. They have
persecuted countless people simply because they are Jewish.

Iran is responsible for attacks not only on Israelis, but on Jews
living as far away as Argentina. Anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial are
part of Iran's official ideology and murder is part of its official
policy. Not even Iranian citizens are safe from their government's
threat to those who want to live, work, and worship in peace.
Politically-motivated abductions, torture, death by stoning, flogging,
and amputations are just some of its state-sanctioned punishments.

It is said that the measure of a country is the treatment of its
most vulnerable citizens. By that standard, the Iranian government is
both oppressive and barbaric. Under Ahmadinejad's rule, Iranian women
are some of the most vulnerable citizens.

If an Iranian woman shows too much hair in public, she risks being beaten or killed.

If she walks down a public street in clothing that violates the state dress code, she could be arrested.

But in the face of this harsh regime, the Iranian women have shown
courage. Despite threats to their lives and their families, Iranian
women have sought better treatment through the "One Million Signatures
Campaign Demanding Changes to Discriminatory Laws." The authorities
have reacted with predictable barbarism. Last year, women's rights
activist Delaram Ali was sentenced to 20 lashes and 10 months in prison
for committing the crime of "propaganda against the system." After
international protests, the judiciary reduced her sentence to "only" 10
lashes and 36 months in prison and then temporarily suspended her
sentence. She still faces the threat of imprisonment.

Earlier this year, Senator Clinton said that "Iran is seeking
nuclear weapons, and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is in the
forefront of that" effort. Senator Clinton argued that part of our
response must include stronger sanctions, including the designation of
the IRGC as a terrorist organization. John McCain and I could not agree
more.

Senator Clinton understands the nature of this threat and what we
must do to confront it. This is an issue that should unite all
Americans. Iran should not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons.
Period. And in a single voice, we must be loud enough for the whole
world to hear: Stop Iran!

Only by working together, across national, religious, and political
differences, can we alter this regime's dangerous behavior. Iran has
many vulnerabilities, including a regime weakened by sanctions and a
population eager to embrace opportunities with the West. We must
increase economic pressure to change Iran's behavior.

Tomorrow, Ahmadinejad will come to New York. On our soil, he will
exercise the right of freedom of speech — a right he denies his own
people. He will share his hateful agenda with the world. Our task is to
focus the world on what can be done to stop him.

We must rally the world to press for truly tough sanctions at the
U.N. or with our allies if Iran's allies continue to block action in
the U.N. We must start with restrictions on Iran's refined petroleum
imports.

We must reduce our dependency on foreign oil to weaken Iran's economic influence.

We must target the regime's assets abroad; bank accounts, investments, and trading partners.

President Ahmadinejad should be held accountable for inciting genocide, a crime under international law.

We must sanction Iran's Central Bank and the Revolutionary Guard Corps — which no one should doubt is a terrorist organization.

Together, we can stop Iran's nuclear program.

Senator McCain has made a solemn commitment that I strongly endorse:
Never again will we risk another Holocaust. And this is not a wish, a
request, or a plea to Israel's enemies. This is a promise that the
United States and Israel will honor, against any enemy who cares to
test us. It is John McCain's promise and it is my promise.

Thank you.

You know you will soon be getting these in the mail:

Dear American:

I need to ask you to support an urgent secret business relationship
with a transfer of funds of great magnitude.

I am Ministry of the Treasury of the Republic of America. My country
has had crisis that has caused the need for large transfer of funds of
800 billion dollars US. If you would assist me in this transfer, it
would be most profitable to you.

I am working with Mr. Phil Gram, lobbyist for UBS, who will be my
replacement as Ministry of the Treasury in January. As a Senator, you
may know him as the leader of the American banking deregulation
movement in the 1990s. This transactin is 100% safe.

This is a matter of great urgency. We need a blank check. We need
the funds as quickly as possible. We cannot directly transfer these
funds in the names of our close friends because we are constantly
under surveillance. My family lawyer advised me that I should look for
a reliable and trustworthy person who will act as a next of kin so the
funds can be transferred.

Please reply with all of your bank account, IRA and college fund
account numbers and those of your children and grandchildren to
wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov so that we may transfer your commission
for this transaction. After I receive that information, I will
respond with detailed information about safeguards that will be used
to protect the funds.

Yours Faithfully
Minister of Treasury Paulson

Palin defends McCain on the Economic crisis quote, and helps explain what he meant. Now, Hero, I know you ain't the economics guy, but when Barracuda – she who never took a single economic theory class- defends you, maybe it's time you get yourself an adderal prescription and some books. Just saying!

Bush is assuring world leaders that his efforts of instituting corporate socialism is under way, and that the 700 billion dollars he is doling out of tax-payers money to help failing financial institution will be spent regardless, because, like, what's 700 billion dollars in the big scheme of things anyway?

There is a short-selling ban at the moment for a number of companies and it includes GM and GE, in order to stop regular people from abusing the current economic situation to make money, stating that such abuse is usually reserved to his friends only. Come on people, it's a market correction and thus we are all fucked, let's all make money here.

And finally, Obama seems to be gaining in the polls thanks to the economic crisis, which I guess is supposed to make his supporters happy. Good on you Obama, you get the presidency of a debt-laden government and a failed economy. You sure you still want this?

…..after pulling out of Georgia and Alaska, and instead moving them to Minnesota (which he should have easily) and Wisconsin. By doing that he is closing down 11 offices in that state alone. The reason why I am bringing this up is due to that previous post I wrote about Obama running out of money. He is out-raising McCain all right, but he also has a much bigger on the ground operation than he probably needs, and it's costing him lots of money. For a lack of a better term, the overhead is killing him. Add to that fact that people will be less likely to donate now to him due to the current economic crisis, and you find that McCain's decision to just go with Federal funds to be an interestingly smart choice, in hindsight of course!

Oh well, one month to go.

She is a fifth rate comedian who used to be something in the 80's and needs some publicity and money. So she went off and insulted Palin, calling her a turncoat Bitch and hoped she gets gang-raped by black brothers in New York. Cause that's what other women wish on women who disagree with them: Rape!

But I digress, she needs the work, people. And that's why she urges people to send the video to everybody. And she did say that the rape thing is part of "a larger nuanced argument". Cause there is a lot of nuance into wishing women to get raped.

God I love US politics and the freaks it unleashes!
