Convention Speeches FactCheck

I was parousing CNN.com just recently and I discovered a nice little feature by them by FactCheck.org. It corrected some of the points that both McCain and Obama made at their Convention speeches. Being that most of America is a big herd of gullible and naive sheep, sources like FactCheck.org on the internet is amazing. I encourage everyone from both sides to check this website and feature on CNN to realize that the candidates are politicians. No matter how much you may like them, or agree with them, or think they are the next best thing to sliced bread, they are going to twist, turn, bend, and break the truth in hopes that most of America won’t check on their statements.

In any case, I am not going to put the facts on this blog. Click the link. That’s what it’s there for.

Abhorrent, Despicable, Deplorable, and Monstrous!

Who are you people?

All I see through-out the blogosphere is the most detestable and despicable attacks I have ever read. All this wicked gossip about Palin and the slander that is being spread needs to stop immediately. It has gone way too far and is absolutely monstrous! I don’t care if you don’t agree with the GOP, McCain, Palin, Bush, or whoever! You at least have the dignity and respect to treat them like human beings. Here we have both the DNC and the RNC talking about how America comes first, how being an American is more important than party lines, and yet the American people can’t even get passed it! We can’t follow suit to what our leaders try to tell us to do. We are the most rebellious and deplorable generation, spitting on the people who lead us. Who do you think you are?

I am seriously disgusted. Spreading these attacks against Palin is just as awful as all the terrible rumors spread against Obama. I don’t care what side you are on, I don’t care if you just can’t stand either platform, you respect who they are and you treat them with dignity. Both sides just need to stop immediately, before politics leads down an even more terrible road than it already is on.

Palin and Experience

Obviously, the first target the Democratic liberals choose when going after Sarah Palin is her experience. And I’ll admit that she is limited in experience. BUT SO IS OBAMA!

I don’t know how many times I have to make that clear to people who use the experience argument against Palin. They need to look at their own candidate. Are you just ignoring the fact that he is practically experienceless because he gives a good speech and makes you feel fuzy inside? Or, is it because you are just so rotten to the core bias that you can’t see past the wool over your eyes?

Let’s do the math.

Obama = No Experience and running for President.
Palin = No Experience and running for Vice President.

Personally, wouldn’t you consider Obama’s equation the worse of the two? But, no, I have read tons of excuses about why Obama’s lack of experience doesn’t actually matter. Does this not apply to Palin? Because if it does, then you shouldn’t chastise her for experience, and if it doesn’t then you are a two-faced hypocrite.

Being that both Obama and Palin have little experience, lets analyze their records, shall we? What has Obama really done in the Senate? He’s voted for things so die-hard liberal that even Pelosi wouldn’t vote for them. He is considered the most liberal senator in Congress, and in his 4 years he really didn’t accomplish that much. Palin on the other hand cut her own salary for the Alaskan budget, she went after senators and representatives in her own party because they were corrupt, she reformed and radically cut spending in Alaska, and has done much more gutsy stuff than Obama would ever dream of doing. She’s tough, smart, and has proven to be an all around good leader. It would seem that she would be a better candidate for change in the corruption of Washington than Obama.

I have a great idea. Let’s stop this nonsense about Palin being so little experienced, especially since everyone is expecting McCain to die any second. The guy has a full bill of health and is more vibrant than ever. He isn’t going to die, and you know what? Even if he did, I would vote for Palin against Obama anyday of the week. Obama has talk. Palin has the walk.

See I can make fun sayings like the Democrats too

Palin Pisses Off the Feminists

I have read many a blog today. I have also read plenty of articles on Sarah Palin with comments from feminists and Hillary supporters. It would seem for the most part they are pissed. And, I’ll be honest, that makes me smile.

It makes me smile because Palin is basically the anti-Hillary. Palin represents everything that liberal Hillary-supporting women want to silence and destroy. And that makes me smile. It makes me smile because Palin is living proof that there are successful women out there who don’t agree with the modern feminists movement. The feminist movement that arrogantly believes they represent all women. Unfortunately for them, a woman like Sarah Palin will represent a completley new form of woman. A woman who upholds family values, integrity, honesty, justice, fighting corruption, putting human life before selfish choice, and lets be honest, looking pretty freaking sweet with a gun. It drives them crazy. It drives them crazy because they know there is another perspective out there, one that has been silenced, one that needs to be awakened, and one that is traditionally and ultimately the stronger perspective. And, oh, how they hate it. Because, it isn’t progressive.

They can’t stand that other women don’t agree with them.

Obaminomics

Contradiction.

That is the best way to explain his economic plan. He talked about a lot of spending, but then cutting a huge chunk of taxes. He told people that when they get knocked down they have to get back up again, but then he chastised government for not helping people when they fall down. He talked about individual responsiblity but then said we have to be accountable to each other, and so on and so forth.

Personally, I think the taxes issue is the worst. It sounds great to cut taxes and also to start pumping tons of money into the economy, but that isn’t going to help right now. We don’t need The Great Society, but that is what people want to hear. I think we are really going to have to listen carefully to what Obama wants to do with our economy because I am definitely not sold by that speech. It will be interesting to hear the debates that they will have in the upcoming months.

The More People in a Room the More Stupid they Become

Conventions and parties are for sheep. Created to get the sheep to elect the wolves into office, conventions and parties serve their purpose well and effeciently. I see thousands of them, the sheep that is, following their candidates with blind adoration unwilling to ever believe anything bad about them. They wave their banners high, screaming loud with hope and adoration in their hearts that change will come, that peace and harmony will prevail, that the wolves will be triumphant. The parties know that this will happen and they know by utilizing the sheep they can gain a stronger base of power.

Lambs to the slaughter, they probably don’t think twice about the possibilty that the wolves wouldn’t actually keep their promises.

In the political world, parties are a nescessary evil. Thomas Jefferson soon learned this when he ran for office at the dawn of the 19th century. Initially, he believed that parties were against the ideals of democracy, that they would create a divide, and do much more harm than good in a democratic nation. But, once he ran against the Federalists, he soon realized that there would be no way to gain enough power to be elected President without a party. So, he created the Democratic-Republic party and found the value in their benefits. The wolves began the hunt.

I believe this is part of the reason why I am an Indepedent. I value critical thinking, free thought, and political freedom. I have no intention of being a mindless sheep following the herd, and will evaluate my options come November. I give both candidates a listening ear and I hear what they have to say about the issues. I evaluate their history, their voting records, their arguments, and their character. I evaluate the chances they are lying, the chances they are going to make decisions based off of reason rather than idealism. I evaluate their experience. I want as well rounded of a perspective as I can get before voting.

Being part of a party already makes you susceptable to bias and limits your ability to evaulate the situation critically and with an open mind. It makes you initially want to vote for your party memeber, and that is a natural decision when you are in a party, but once again I have no intention of sitting in a situation like that, nor do I want to be dragged around like, yes, a sheep. So, I obviously don’t believe that being in a party makes you stupid, but if anything it makes you bias, and that bias more often than naught turns into anger and hartred for the other side, and that clouds your judgement. For all you know, your candidate could be a crook (i.e. Nixon) or weak (i.e. Carter).

There are other reason why I am an indepedent, but I will save those for another day.

A Commi Parade

…Or more like a riot. I stumbled upon a blog which showed recent photos of protests in Denver. I had to blog about it because it was pretty insane. The Commi’s have come to town!
