Rip Rap

How Democrats Can Lose
Michael Moore:
Show up to a gunfight with a peashooter. Convince yourself that the Republicans are just going to roll over and play dead because there is simply no life left in their party. Convince yourself this one is in the bag! Convince yourself that if you play by the rules, the Republicans will, too.
Politics is local. Democrats in Rock County must keep their eyes peeled and their ears open, particularly on the traditional media and groups affiliated with the WMC. They own the publicity machinery and are working hard every minute to change the course of progress.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Aug.14,2008

"This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia, where Russia can invade its neighbor, occupy a capital, overthrow a government and get away with it. Things have changed." -- CONDOLEEZZA RICE, U.S. Secretary of State, on the conflict between Russia and Georgia.

A poor misguided Republican….who..still believes that somewhere in the universe exists a GOP not to be ashamed of.

Fox Slimes Obama Part 2



State Government Smaller Under Gov. Doyle :
Doyle said he had reversed the trend of expanding government and had significantly reduced the number of positions. He also pointed to other ways the state has found to save money, such as increased use of technology.
This despite a growing population. Considering that nearly half of our state legislature are those small government, tax and job cutters we jokingly call Republicans, where are their lists of proposed jobs cuts and positions to eliminate within their own districts?
Time Traveling Terrorists?
(July 30,2008) Financial Times (UK):
Egyptian-born Midhat Mursi al-Sayid Umar, who was also known as Abu Khabab al-Masri, was one of six Arab men who were killed in a remote region along the Afghan border, according to an intelligence official.
This next report from over two years ago.
(Jan. 18, 2006) ABC News:
ABC News has learned that Pakistani officials now believe that al Qaeda's master bomb maker and chemical weapons expert was one of the men killed in last week's US missile attack in eastern Pakistan.
Midhat Mursi, 52, also known as Abu Khabab al-Masri, was identified by Pakistani authorities as one of four known major al Qaeda leaders present at an apparent terror summit in the village of Damadola early last Friday morning.
This guy has been martyred twice.

McCain Running Democrat Praise Ads
Excerpt:
"The real question is what happened to the John McCain we used to know and why he changed overnight into a George Bush nominee with a Karl Rove campaign." Biden said it was "unfortunate" McCain had "changed so much in just eight years." Dean contended the McCain of 2000 would not "consider voting for the John McCain of 2008."
Are things that bad in the Republican Party where the only good that can be said about them comes from Democrats?
When Human Garbage Speaks

Hollywood Gossip Excerpt:
"My theory, that I just explained to you about why - you know, what could have John Edwards' motivations been to have the affair with Rielle Hunter, given his wife is smarter than he is and probably nagging him a lot about doing this, and he found somebody that did something with her mouth other than talk." – Rush Limbaugh……....obviously jealous of Reille Hunter
Carter's Economy: The Good Ol' Days
Bad News Excerpt:
Moreover, the Fed appears willing, for now, to accept a few months of big headline inflation numbers as long as there's no sign of the dreaded wage-price spiral - the 1970s phenomenon in which inflation took root as pinched workers demanded raises.
Oh yeah, the dreaded wage-price spiral. We don't want that....God forbid if workers were leveraged enough to demand wages that lock stepped with artificially induced consumer-price inflation. According to the Fed, inflation is fine as long as wages aren't causing it or reacting to it?

July Foreclosures Up 55%
Inflation At 17-Year High a different Bush was president
Illinois Unemployment Jumps To 7.3%
.....and that's the good news.
Excerpt:
"The American worker does not have a whole lot of bargaining power right now," says Simons. "We're looking at the impoverishment of the American wage earner."
