I hate the smear campaign being launched on Barack Obama. I think it's disgusting and honestly I can see exactly how true evil can happen. Get a crowd riled up by rumors and inuendo that preys on the fears of individuals and let that crowd do your bidding. Sweet.
First off, the rumors are insane. I just deleted a paragraph explaining why, but it was boring. We all know it. It's a loose "guilt by association" ploy and it's too dumb to even give another keystroke to.
Something I think is MUCH more entertaining is to define Sarah Palin on her associations. Specifically her work for Pat Buchanan. I have no idea why any mainstream media outlet would EVER invite this horrible man on its show. My only rational guess is to dispell the rumor of media being controlled by the Jews. He is a truly horrible horrible evil vicious disgusting man. Pat Buchanan thinks that Roosevelt was wrong to get us involved in WWII because Hitler was Europe's issue. Thanks Pat! And more recently Pat has decried the attempts to prosecute former Nazi guards. Maybe he hasn't heard the stories of guards performing abortions on prisoners. There's so much more, just google him, he's HORRIFIC.
And what about Sarah Palin? She worked as his chief fundraiser in Alaska for his 2000 Presidential bid. So while Sarah Palin tries to attack Obama for having associations with a 60s radical/terrorist, she actually WORKED FOR Pat Buchanan. Are you kidding me? Why aren't more people talking about this?

Fuzzy logic
From what I see John McCain is running on a two-legged platform: lowering taxes and fighting earmarks. It looks like this week we saw that although he only has 2 issues to address, he comes up on the wrong side of both.
This past week during the Vice Presidential debate, Sarah Palin repeated a portion of a stump speech which states "raising taxes on the wealthy would cut jobs" and that we need to keep taxes low to create jobs. Ok. Sounds good, I'm in, cut Mel Gibson's taxes, please! Oh wait, there's data? Uh oh. Looks like President Bush (the guy who Republicans thought was better President material than John McCain) passed a rather sizable tax cut primarily for the wealthy in his term. The last came in the form of a "stimulus" this past spring. So according to McCain's calculations, jobs should have just been sprouting up all over the place. Nope. We've been bleeding jobs for the past 9 months, and the current credit seize up is sure to keep that trend going.
Then there's the earmarks. John McCain has been whipping out a sharpie at just about every stump speech and debate, wagging it to the audience as he proclaims with fervor that he will veto any bill that comes across his desk bearing pork, and he'll make those that inserted the earmarks famous. You'll know their names. Ok. So the "rescue bill" passed after it was sweetened with $140 million in pork. This is just an assumption, but since it was Republicans that couldn't seem to sign the bill the first time, my guess is that the earmarks were added to attract some of the Reds to sign. So Senator McCain, I'm waiting, what are their names?
