Karl Rove LIKES McCain's out of wedlock black baby now!
Mr. Rove lavished praise on his party’s presumptive nominee on Friday.
He spoke glowingly of Mr. McCain and his wife’s decision to adopt a
child from an orphanage in Bangladesh.
Awwww! How sweet. Of course, it t'was not always thus.

Brilliant find to be sure. Calling Rove a sleezeball is insulting to sleezballs the world over.

Well,I never will support Obama.I guess you people haven't heard about him and Hillary Clinton voting to raise taxes on everybody making $31,850/year or more.
And it's not a little,it's 50%.
So if you make $32,000/year if that liar Obama become President you'd might as well look forward to only getting $16,000 put in your hand.
Obama is a colorful LIAR.

BryonNC: Are you for real? You can't be for real... If you're for real, be prepared to start backing up your assertions with some links and facts. It would be nice to have a Republican around here, but you better start bringing some serious data along with your comments. (The intellectual heavy-weights around here (certainly not me), will eat you alive for this comment...)
As far as your tax argument goes, it's completely bogus. Increase taxes on those making "$31,850/year or more"? Bull$hit. Here are some links with the widely accepted chart outlining Obama vs. McCain's tax plans. Under Obama, taxes go up slightly for those making between 112,000 and 603,000. They only go up significantly for those making over $603,000. If you expect me to cry-a-river for the lucky duckies making over $603,000, don't hold your breath.

If the Republicans are paying this joker to troll here, they should demand their money back!

"Colorful." Notice how he keeps harping on that?
I like his colorfulness because I know that he's not suffering from things within his haid, as the other guy is clearly experiencing and evidenced by all the flip-flopping.
Obviously, they did not train you well. At all.

Yeah, I saw that yesterday and had to really work to control my gag reflex. And that was just part of it -- don't forget the similar 'hints' that McCain had collaborated with the enemy during his imprisonment and/or that he was brainwaished.
How John McCain could ever bring himself to embrace Bush (with Rove at his elbow) I'll never know and, watching him now, I wonder if it didn't "break" something inside him to do that.
I dislike the intensity with which I hate Karl Rove. I don't want to feel like that toward another human being. But some of the things he has done.....
The one that sticks with me is one actually one of his beginning efforts. It's described on the 3rd page of a 2004 Atlantic article
http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200411/green/3
The incident I'm thinking of begins at the 10th paragraph down, starting with "When his term on the court ended ...."
But the whole article is well worth a read if you aren't fully familiar with the "genius" of Karl Rove. That Bush was willing not just to associate with this man but to knowingly benefit from his particular style of doing things says it all.

You liars,quit lying about McCain,he's done more for the US than Obama ever will.Obama loves the Socialist life and he's a colorful LIAR.
Perhaps Obama had rather live in the former USSR,i ALREADY KNOW HE'S A COLORFUL LIAR.
He's nothing new,he's another Jimmy Carter,possibly the worst President we've ever had.
Obama=Jimmy Carter,and if you don't remember Carter,you'd better thank God.Carter put us into Stagflation where the unemployment rate and inflation was very high.
Not only that,no nation respected US,remember there were 60+ men that were held hostage for over 400 days,but when the great Ronald Reagan went into office they were all released immediately.

Actually, Bryon, Carter's economy was reeling from the oil shock of '73 (which was still screwing up the economy when he took office) and another one in '79.
Jimmy Carter then said having an energy policy was the "moral equivalent of war". Reagan, his successor, dismantled the energy policy and, as a result, today we are little further along than in the 70's to deal with the looming economic crisis -- caused, to a large degree, by peak oil. (Encouraging massive private debt is the other reason.)
We won't even look into the allegations that Bill Casey (look him up) had dealings with Iran for Reagan before the election was even decided. We won't because I suspect that (a) you weren't old enough to remember that period and (b) you aren't curious enough to have investigated it yourself.

Hey snake handler, didn't I see you praying at a gas pump on a FOX piece yesterday?
You prove only one thing: a good hair day for a typical republican today, is a bad hair day for 80 FUCKING PERCENT of the rest of the country.

You look to be of prime military service age. What are you doing here you coward?
What a pussy.
It's probably a wallet picture anyway.

That's why we need to drill and do other things,the environmentalists had rather see people suffer than to help out people.
The environment is important,but if nobody's alive,it can't be enjoyed.
Do you environmentalists hate people that much?

03.15.08Obama and Clinton Vote to Raise Middle Class TaxesPosted in All Jacked up, Blogging, Capitalism, Congress, Elections, Tax-cuts at 8:58 am by Thanos
In the midst of the Spizztzer scandal and The Revisionist Wright Revelations a very important Senate vote went largely unoticed. The Democrat budget blueprint just voted on in the Senate would repeal the Bush tax cuts, effectively raising taxes on the middle class.
In their campaign rhetoric the dems speak of taxing the rich but to the Democrats, the middle classes of the US are the rich. Under the budget blueprint individuals making more than $31,850.00 and couples making more than $63,700.00 would see tax increases. From Boston Herald:
WASHINGTON - Presidential candidates John McCain, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton interrupted their campaign schedules to return to the Senate for votes on taxes and spending likely to become key points of contention in the race for the White House.
Votes on tax cuts and on a one-year ban on pet projects topped the Senate’s agenda before an expected late-night vote yesterday to pass a $3 trillion Democratic budget blueprint. The nonbinding plan predicts a balanced budget in four years and promises generous increases for many domestic programs, but achieves those goals only by assuming major tax increases when President Bush’s tax cuts expire in about three years.
Obama(D-Ill.) and Clinton (D-N.Y.) both promise to reverse Bush’s tax cuts for wealthier taxpayers, but the Democratic budget they’ll be voting for would allow income tax rates to go up on individuals making as little as $31,850 and couples earning $63,700 or more.
Obama is attacking McCain for reversing his stance on the Tax-cuts, however calling for a tax raise whether on capital gains or the middle class at a time when we are in a slowdown is ridiculously stupid.
Hitting capital gains and adding new middle class taxes steals from the middle class both coming and going — one tax hits your 401K, the other takes directly from your paycheck.
Both Democrat candidates have clearly demonstrated by their vote what the average american can expect from them. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
In email I got a correction, which I always appreciate:
Hey Thanos - I didn’t want to leave a comment about this on your blog. There’s a misstatement in your post about the nonbinding Democratic budget blueprint. The Senate didn’t vote to repeal the tax cuts; the tax cuts will expire at the end of 2010 (a provision that was in the tax cut bill) unless Congress passes a bill to extend them. The end result is the same: it’s tax and spend under the guise of “fairness”; but our ideological opponents often seize upon even the slightest inaccuracy to call into question our integrity.
For the record I *always* appreciate correction of facts that are incorrect here, it doesn’t damage our credibility. Please if you do see something wrong here, always leave a comment because I get to those much faster than I do email.
The email is correct, which is why in other comments and places I was calling this a “stealth attack”. It’s a senate straw poll/trial budget balloon to see if they have enough nays to kill a bill or ammendments to the budget to extend the Bush tax-cuts. If they can keep it from coming to the floor, or vote the extension down then in effect they raise taxes. The concern is noted, but a vote even on this non-binding resolution lets Americans know exactly where Obama and Clinton stand on raising taxes.
