McCain to America: You can't do it

I have just about had enough of McCain and the GOP, and this clip from a McCain speech is a slap in the face to all of us working Americans. In the following clip McCain states that he will pay anyone in the audience $50 an hour to pick lettuce, and then says that they couldn't do it for a whole season.

Let me tell you this Mr. McCain, I might not have worked in the fields, but I have worked two, sometimes three jobs at a time, and for no where near $50 an hour. Many Americans work long hours now at jobs that don't pay anywhere near $50 an hour, they work in construction, they lay roofs, they make beds, clean houses, they do service jobs, we do the jobs that made America strong.

Message to John McCain: Most Americans know how many homes they own, they know what it means to work hard and struggle, and given the opportunity, most Americans would jump at the chance to make $50 an hour. John McCain you don't know real Americans, all you know is that country club crowd you run with, that same crowd that wouldn't work in a field because it was beneath them.

McCain publically announces the dates of Obama's Iraq Trip

The GOP candidate with all of the "experience" in foreign policy, the candidate that wants YOU to trust him with the security of this country, can't keep his mouth shut when it comes to Obama's upcoming trip to Iraq.

Today McCain told reporters:

"I believe that either today or tomorrow -- and I'm not privy to his schedule -- Sen. Obama will be landing in Iraq with some other senators" who make up a congressional delegation, McCain said at a Republican fund-raiser.
No one, not the press, not political operatives, EVER reveals the travel plans of US officials going to Iraq, because that would put the officials at risk of an attack:

If it is true that Obama is going to Iraq this weekend, it is a very serious mistake for McCain to have disclosed it publically. Even for run-of-the-mill CODELs the military gives guidance like, "Please strongly discourage Congressional offices from issuing press releases prior to their trips which mention their intent to travel to the AOR and/or the dates of that travel or their scheduled meetings. Such releases are a serious compromise to OPSEC." If Obama is going to Iraq this weekend, I can not begin to imagine how much this is complicating the security planning for the trip.

Not only has McCain put Obama at risk, he has put the congressional leaders who are traveling with him at risk, and he has put every soldier who is assigned to protect this delegation at risk.

And McCain wants America to believe that he is best suited to protect us? The next time someone tells you that they don't think Obama has enough experience, show them this article and ask them if they think McCain is qualified to be a city council member let alone president.

I am outraged, whether on purpose or just a slip, McCain has put Obama, the delegation and our soldiers directly in harms way, McCain didn't have the common sense to keep his mouth quiet, and this from a man who would be president.

For those of you out there (you know who you are) that think McCain's military experiecene somehow qualifies him to be president, well, you just saw McCain in action.

Shame on McCain, and I hope that Obama, the other congressional leaders traveling with him, and our soldiers are not exposed to any increased danger or harm because of McCain.

Why Repugs can't be trusted with money or the government

First of all, no that was not a typo in the title. From now on, or at least until the Repug Party can learn to say "Democratic," I will resort to calling them "Repug(s)," short for repugnant, which is what their party has become.

Repugs want you to hear what they say and ignore their deeds. For instance, Repugs are always talking about "fiscal responsibility" and how they are just so much better stewards of "our" tax payer money. Really? The facts show otherwise.

The NYT is reporting that:


WASHINGTON — Hundreds of thousands of dollars are missing and presumed stolen from the chief fund-raising arm of House Republicans, according to party officials who described the findings of emergency internal audits.

The financial records of the group, the National Republican Congressional Committee, may also have been falsified for several years, Republican officials said. The campaign committees of several Republican lawmakers may also have been victims of a scam that is now under criminal investigation by the F.B.I.

The audits were ordered after the abrupt departure several weeks ago of Christopher J. Ward, who had been treasurer of the committee. Lawmakers said that Mr. Ward, who served a similar role for dozens of individual members of Congress and their political committees, is the focus of the F.B.I.’s criminal investigation.


The Repugs can't even keep track of their own money, let alone ours. When given the opportunity to steal, they steal, when given the opportunity to lie, they lie, and when given the opportunity to lead they fail.

So, here we have the National Repugs not being able to manage money, and locally? Well, CA Repugs are bankrupt (morally as well as financially):

The current balance sheet shows that the California Republican Party is operating in the red - with $3.2 million in cash and $3.4 million in unpaid bills. The party's federal accounts, which are used for congressional campaigns, list $460,000 in debts.

The CA Repugs also have a problem with voters:
What was an 8.5% gap in registration in the last general election is now a 10 point gap, with Democrats holding a 43% to 33% advantage. On top of that, Democrats are turning out at the polls like never before in recent memory, excited about electing a Democrat to the White House. And the growing independent (or Decline-to State) voters in California side with Democrats on key issues. Polls from the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) and the California Field Poll show this—and there is the potential for a Democratic blowout in November.

We have eight months until our nation goes to the polls and elects a new President and congress. With McBush as their candidate, the Repug party is going to have a hard time convincing the voters that eight more years of their leadership is good for our nation (checked the stock market lately? The other day Bush didn't even know that gas was headed towards $4 a gallon).

Don't get mad, get even, get involved with our local Democratic Party, join us on Saturday at our "Call to Action," learn what you can do locally to take our nation back from the failure of the Repug Party.

Who made this statement?

*The following statement is offensive, and please be aware that the writer of this post is repeating this as a means to expose the person who made this statement.

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?
Because her father is Janet Reno."

So, who do you think made this statement? As a bit of background, this statement was made at a GOP fund raising dinner in 1998, this was not an spur of the moment joke, it was presented as part of a prepared speech.

Who, who would be so rude, so vile, so absolutely without any concern for the feelings of a child, who would this person be? If you guess Rush Limbaugh, you are wrong. And no, it wasn't Hannity. No, it wasn't any of the right wing talking heads, nope.

The person who made this statement? Senator John McCain.

In 1998 Chelsea Clinton was 18 years old, a young adult who had endured horrific, vile attacks from the far right before, but this, this is different. The person who uttered these words wants Americans to trust him to be president, he wants people to elect him based on his ability to make decisions. If there is ANY example of why this man has no ability to make good decisions, let this be the prime example.

McCain read this statement from a prepared speech, he knew the joke was in there, he thought it was perfectly fine, funny even, to make this statement. McCain had the opportunity to remove this statement, to show that he did have good judgment, but instead he choose to utter those absolutely vile words.

Chelsea Clinton is a beautiful young woman, she is smart, vivacious, she is self assured, a great communicator (like her father and mother), and she is a shinning example to all of the young adults in our nation.

If you haven't already guessed, I am outraged beyond words. And I can tell you this, I will do all I can to make sure that our Democratic nominee becomes the next President of the United States.

GO HILLARY! GO OBAMA!
