Here is today's list of great stories and videos.

Let's take a walk down memory lane and take a look at the multiple areas of mismanagement, ignorance, and all things Republican that led to our financial meltdown.  Sorry GOP, you own this financial crisis...bought and paid for with OUR money.

Bailout? What bailout?  The Republicans in Washington say Bring on The Great Depression of 2008.  Unreal.  Nothing matters to these people except political theater, bluster and gain. 

McCain already won the debate that hasn't taken place yet?  HUH?  Yup.  The advertisement was already placed in the Murdoch Street Journal.  Un.Freaking.Bee.Leave.Able. Yes, this is a paid ad.

Freedomrebel asks:  Governor Palin, have you no ethics?  I think we all know the answer to that.

Henry Paulson receives the Veruca Salt Award.  Couldn't go to a more deserving person.

If you missed this, this is a must read!  Bill Clinton on Obama.  This discussion about Foreign Policy, and how much better Obama will be, reminds us why Clinton was a good president.  This is a fantastic piece.

Personal responsibility is only for the little people.  Good to know.  How's the economy working out for you guys on Wall Street these days?  Ownership society my ass.

Need a quick refresher on the Keating 5?  I heard a guy on the radio who is on the ground in California say that almost none of the younger people in Cali have ever heard of Keating 5.  Note to Obama - American's need a history lesson.  Give it to us!

If you missed this combination vlog/blog entry on Palin and her crazy beliefs in the end times, how her state will play a big part in the end times, the radical and violent associations she has with different extremist church organizations and of course, her witch hunting pastor, you have to read and watch all 13 of the videos shown here.  It will blow you away.

If you missed these videos they are pretty damned funny:

Letterman skewers McCain for premature evacuation.

Colbert mocks McCain by suspending his show.

Craig Ferguson takes on McCain suspending his campaign.

If you liked any of these stories/videos, please Recommend this post.

Oh brother...would someone give me a break!

Sarah Palin meets with foreign leaders, with 29 seconds of video and what gets said?  She's beautiful.  She's so nice. And maybe a hug.  Excuse me while I puke!

Fundamentalist "Concerned Women for America" take on a film with a rape scene (one not shown) as child pornography.  Boycott!  Don't allow it to be shown!  How about DON'T GO TO SEE IT!

Got martial law?  (Video)  Army Times reports a bunch of soldiers are returning to maintain order in the streets of America.  How come??

Right wingers are trying to get away with blaming Dems for this Wall Street debacle.  Well, guess who created the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac sub-prime Mandate?  It's a name you will all recognize.

The FDA is finally cracking down on bad products.  Be still my heart!  Oh wait, that's why they are doing it.

McCain has a nice little propaganda thing going.  Did you ever wonder where this shit comes from?  This will answer that question.

John McCain, the least present and voting senator NOW wants to go back to Washington to handle the economic crisis?  No matter that he is clueless to the economy.  Check out the chart of how little Senator McCain actually worked.

If you missed this video of Marcy Kaptur (D-OH) giving the "hurry up and give us $700 billion dollars now now now" Paulson a major slap down, you must watch it.  (Video)

What do Sarah Palin and witches have in common? A pastor. A pastor who is a witch hunter. What does Sarah Palin have in common with the End of Times? Right, another pastor. And then what is the commonality between Sarah Palin and violent church extremists? If you guessed a pastor, you would be again be correct.

This post is part vlog, part blog. It’s long. It's frightening. Kick back and watch, read, learn and become terrified.

If you watched Keith Olbermann on Friday, he had a story about Palin's witch-hunting pastor, a man unknown to her and she to him. It was an odd story. Not so scary, just different.  Olbermann picked up on the witch hunter aspect of Palin’s speech, but neglected to cover the most terrifying part of this particular speech. Olbermann’s guest addresses it, but it winds up being glossed over. What is so terrifying? Palin’s reference to Revelations, the Prophecy, Alaksa’s role in the prophecy and the response from the pastor. This deserves much more attention. Much, much more.

As a teaser to what it in this post, the following is what Sarah Palin said herself:

Let us pray god may give to you the spirit of revelation including the spirit of prophesy. God is going to tell you what is going on and what is going to go on. Good, good things in store for the state of Alaska. Let us pray for God’s will to be done here for all of your destinies to be met in this state. We are the head not the tail and I see things in the works that are coming to fruition, percolating, coming along. Praying for the outpouring of God’s spirit for the revival to be here in Alaska.

Anyone familiar with evangelical dogma should recognize some of the words Palin.

Between End-Tmes prophecies, witch-hunting bishops who bless Palin unconditionally - without knowing her personally, only her church, to her ignorance of what this nation was and was not founded upon, and her desire to engage in more wars, including Russia, is this the person you want a heartbeat away from becoming the President of the United States of America?

Read and watch the many videos here.
(This is the same link as the one above.)

Please distribute this far and wide.  Palin is hardly the person we want to be literally a heartbeat away from becoming president of the United States of America!

I saw a prior blog post which said (and I am purposely misunderparaphrasin' here): "I can see the moon from my backyard, I am qualified to be an astronaut!" and it made me think that everyone has an area of expertise.

My friend (crassly) says that he has seen a vagina, so he can be a gynecologist.

Me, I have seen an $18,000 purse, so that makes me an expert in high-end fashion.

How about YOU?  What is YOUR area of expertise?

Let's have some fun out there!  And come on down to TheZoo for more fun and facts about life and politics.

Marjorie Cohn, president of the National Lawyers Guild and a professor at Thomas Jefferson School of Law, explains what a Palin theocracy looks like. Suffice it to say, it's not pretty.

Joe eviscerates the GOP.  The best OpEd I have seen in too long.  Excellent!  A must read!

Melissa gives you the best cartoons.  Check this one out!

Palin for President!  Yes, I am totally on board with this!  Watch the video.

Women are saying NO to Palin.  Good!

If you missed these videos, dont! 

Ari Melber takes that ass Brad Blakeman to the woodshed. 

The View gives McCain a major smackdown!  Babawawa's journalistic roots kick in! 

Dem 527's finally kick in!  It's about damned time!!

And lastly, Wayne takes a trip down memory lane and reposts his The Craven (taken from Edgar Allen Poe) about why we invaded Iraq.  Look closely...do you see future Iranian events in there?

Thanks for all your support in these daily posts. I am so glad you like them.  Please remember to give this a Recommend so others may enjoy, too.

Happy weekend one and all!

So many great videos today!!

John McCain is a LIAR!  Liar, liar, pants on fire (redux).  Great video!

Sean Hannity goes apoplectic when shown facts.  I laughed my ass off watching this one. 

McCain shows his utter ignorance - redux.  Honestly, this is an embarrassment.  I am sure McCain can expect more if any other real journalists ask him more real questions.

What Norm Coleman has to say about G.W. Bush.  Eight seconds of .....  (Yeah, that sums up Bush for me, too.)

Want to get pissed?  Take a look at how your tax dollars are being wasted.  If you're not infuriated, you're not breathing.

If you missed Keith Olbermann's scathing Special Comment, you can catch it here.

Republicans are on Fantasy Island.  A great video interjecting some humor and far too much truth.

And as long as you're watching videos, watch this, John McCain, War Candidate (yes, this is a repeat, but only because it is ABSOLUTELY FRIGHTENING, and what could possibly be in our future)!

Don't feel like watching videos?  How about:

Sarah Palin is a LIAR!

A great write up on the polls and why we shouldn't believe them.

CREW takes on the most corrupt members of Congress.  Republicans - 17,   Dems - 7.  Check out the list and why they are on it.

Obama sends apology post cards for his Lipstick comment.

And last, but not least...since the phrase Lipstick on a Pig is no longer acceptable, the Dems released a list of other phrases which they also cannot use.  Pretty darned funny!  Care to add your own to the list?

Ok, there's the daily wrap-up.  I hope you enjoyed them.  If you did, please give this post a Recommend so others may, too.

It appears that the word Uppity has become the new N-Word.  Colbert takes it on with his usual aplomb.  Funny, funny video!  Too bad the story behind it isn't.

The US is giving $1 Billion dollars in aid to Georgia (no, not the state) to repair and improve their infrastructure.  And this is being done while our own infrastructure crumbles below our feet.  Swell.  Just swell.

ThinkProgress is tracking the McCain/Palin lies.  Steve Benen is tracking McCain's flip-flops.

Josh had a lot to say about McCain's despicable "Education" ad.  Well, it's not just their insinuation that Obama is supporting pedophiles that makes that ad so wrong.  Every thing in that ad is a lie.  I tear down each lie. Have I mentioned that McCain, et al, are nothing but LIARS!?!

Wonkette has a great take on the polls.  Look you liberal Obamatards, stop sweating the load!  This is a great piece.  Funny in how it's written, serious as to what the polls are showing.

Palin is most uncivilized in how she hunts wolves...and then uses them in a political ad.  Oh, how this woman totally disgusts me!  I would say great video, but disgusting is more the word that comes to mind.

Army suicides are increasing to the level that they will surpass last year - more soldiers are killing themselves now than any time since Vietnam.

If you enjoyed any of these stories, please give it a Recommend so that others might enjoy them, too.

Worried about those polls?

Even though the Internet has already concluded that Barack Obama lost the election after some unknown wingnut vice president lady gave one surly speech last week, we couldn’t help but check out the electoral map anyway, just for kicks.

Read the rest here.

Very funny (and realistic) take on the latest poll numbers.

And do visit TheZoo for your daily dose of politics and social commentary.

If you have not yet seen this FANTASTIC video about the relationship between McCain and the media, and the media in general, you have to watch this.

Outstanding job.  Absolutely outstanding!

Please Recommend this if you agree.  And share widely.  The media coziness with the Washington elite needs to be brought to the forefront!

Honestly.  Have you heard Ms. McCain speaking on The Today Show?  Right, only the McCain clan suffer from war.  Someone, please shove that Black Centurion American Express card deeply down this woman's throat.  Thankfullly, it's a short enough vidwo that I didn't throw something at my computer.

Did you see Obama's latest hard-hitting campaign ad?  It's pretty good!  Watch it!

Let's not forget our daily dose of Jon Stewart.  Just what ARE "small town values?"  Yeah, the Republicans can't define them, either.  A great Daily Show clip!

And now the Young Republican's have their own racist leader.  Ooops, make that ex-leader.  He resigned over his repeated racist remarks.  I am sure McCain will have a place in his administration for this young KKK sympathizer.

Did you happen to catch that Jesus quit Christianity after reading the GOP platform?  It's priceless!

John McCain, running on the War Platform for the War Party.  If you missed this video, it is a wake-up call to what will come if we ever get a President McWar.

Palin might have sold her gubernatorial jet (no, not on eBay) but she's taking to the blue skies again, this time in a custom Embraer 190 - this one with her (and McCain's) names emblazoned on it.

And Wayne does it again with his priceless lyric parody.  This time The Devil Went Into Cable (sung to The Devil Went Down To Georgia) takes on...guess who?

There's your daily dose of news and views from the Internets.  If you enjoyed these stories/videos, please Recommend so others may, too.

McCain the Maverick.  Yeah, right.  Reformed Maverick! Jon Stewart shows just how McMavericky old John is.  Great video!

How about Palin's own words on the Bridge to Nowhere.  Another case of being before it before you were against it. Ms. Palin, it is such a bitch when your own words come to bite you in the butt.  Watch the video.

And did anyone else notice that the Republican National Convention may have paid (ad naseum) attention to McCain's POW record but scant little was said about our current veterans?  Yeah, I noticed it, too.  So did the vets.

If you missed this, there are nearly 600,000 people in Ohio who are currently subject of possible caging?  Read this and then read how you can ensure that you have your own right to vote in November!  This is a must read - and a must do!  You have got to check your registration status prior to the election!  I am checking mine weekly!!

Remember how Fox attacked Kerry in 2004?  Let's see just how Fox is doing it again in 2008 with Obama being the butt of their bull$hit.

Be aware of what is going on out there.  Remember, we are all Obama surrogates.  Every time you talk to a friend, neighbor, family member or coworker, you are the mouth of the Democrats.  And this is such an important election!

If you felt any of these stories are worthwhile, please do give it a Recommend so others can learn, too.

In a most disturbing twist of events, it has been reported that not only were journalists and news photographers detained and/or arrested, and preemptive arrests were performed, but it is now being reported that the brutality of the St. Paul police, under the direction of the Department of Homeland Security, was extended to medics on the scene, as well as local residents.

We'll start as  a young protester describes his own torture at the hands of the police, a telling which is too reminiscent of the handling of detainees at Guantanamo Bay.  Watch the video.  Then read the stories of medics and residents who were abused.

This is the most appalling event, and if it is allowed to continue, we will all be living in a police state, with no ability to carry out our First Amendment rights in speaking out against our government.

This is the government brought to us by the Republicans?

Read this story and act now!

"Gee, that never sounded racist until now."  Mary Shannon, In Plain Sight (USA Network)

It's about time that people are calling McCain out for being what he, his surrogates, and his campaign are:  Liars!

Obama says so (Ok, he doesn't use the "L" word, but close enough!) in Terre Haute, Indiana.

While Obama might call McCain a liar directly, Rachel Maddow does.  Liar, Liar, pants on fire! Awesome video!

And Barbara Boxer takes her digs, too.  Look at what McCain has fought while in Washington.  Good on you, Ms. Boxer.

You'll love this.  Ever read the Republican Party Platform?  Wayne did and his initial report was hysterical.  If only the Republican's had any idea who they were quoting.  Their stupidity would be laughable if it wasn't our country at stake!

McCain and Palin have differing views on earmarks...or do they.  The clueless and the cluelesser. I can't tell which is which.

Gee, everything old is new again.  Look at the comparison of Fox on Kerry and Obama.  It's deja vu all over again.

And Jesus Christ, what about that kooky church which drives Palin's ideology?  Scared yet?

And, don't forget the List of Obama's Senate Accomplishments, should you ever need amunition when talking with your GOP leaning friends or family.

Yeah, in this case, I am calling a spade a spade, and McCain, et al, you are nothing but LIARS!

Good for you, Rachael!  Finally someone says the dreaded "L" word.
