This is too funny. I have only been away for three weeks, on vacation back home to Corsica, and the Clintons and their administration are already back in the White House. I could not believe it when my folks at home told me Billary would be State Secretary – no way, not after the vicious things the Clinton said and did to OBObama! And she has no experience beside trailing her Hubby on official trips and drinking tea with the other wives.

What about Health? At least she has some experience if she learned from her failures – LOL. You guys wanted change and you got the”same old, same old”  Washingtonite elite. What was it again: “I am the one we have been waiting for!”, “change we can believe in! – yeah right! Show me changes!

Almost fifty years ago, John F Kennedy was elected on a platform based on the famous “ask yourself what you can do for your country and not what the country can do for you”. Today, our new president has been elected on the demagogic platform of “ask the government what you are entitled to”. President Obama has made it clear that higher education and health care are universal rights, that paying for your mortgage mistakes is a given and that”wealth” (still unquantified) must be spread out.

That is all good for the majority of free loaders that vote but don’t pay taxes. But what has happened to rewarding hard work, personal and financial responsibility, merit and common sense, all the things that make the American dream he vows to reclaim. The dream is live and well. As a successful legal immigrant I am a living proof of it, and as the first African American Columbia and Harvard educated president, Mr Obama is another one.

We have learned more about Sarah Pailin in a couple of weeks than about Obama in years and despite the supposed scrutiny typical of such a high profile campaign, I did not get all the answers I wanted and I am still wondering who is Senator Obama. Sure, I could use his own biographies to figure out what he is made of, but talk about possible bias and re-written history! He is a politician and I have to assume that as a good and successful politician, he is good at distorting reality and truth to fit his needs.

Also, the mainstream media is obviously so much in love with the phenomenon that investigative journalism has been turned into a thing of the past, replaced by shameless adulation and promotion of the new “Messiah”. [Read more…]

Just plain incredible, total Obamanipulation!.

Isn’t it disturbing to see how pro-OBObama the media outlets are? Everything good is about the audacious guy full of hope and everything negative is about the McCain camp.

When Obama made his speech in Berlin or gathered tens of thousands of supporters in a stadium, it was unique, magical, blah blah. Pailin just did the same with at least 60 thousand people in Florida and it is not newsworthy. Her inauguration speech attracted more viewers than Obama’s but it was not newsworthy. “Sarah who” stole the Obama’s convention thunder and poll rebound but it was not newsworthy. She got more votes as a Gov than Biden as a presidential pretender but it is not newsworthy. [Read more…]

McCain’s campaign stole Obama’s Thunder last Friday morning when announcing early morning that a complete unknown female governor had been picked as a Veep for the Republican ticket. What was supposed to be the day when every media outlet was to dissect “ZE Speech” by the MLT wannabee new Messiah, became the day for “Sarah who?”

I thought that it was funny! Suddenly the convention of the Democrats was old news, and so was Obama’s performance in front of 84,000 people. Too bad.

I also predicted that she would make the news and magazine covers, kick the Obama couple out of the flood lights, and she did.

Finally, I explained why it was a grandiose idea unless she had skeletons in her closet.

I was right (am I not always right?) so right!

The idea is grandiose because:

• She is younger than Obama
• She is “newer” than Obama
• She is as cute as Michelle

Obama chose an old “Washingtonite” for VP, one of the people he criticizes for the problems, and McCain chose an unknown successful “Maverick”.

McCain chose a woman, a mom, when Obama sent Billary back home, humiliated.

McCain chose a woman and the Obama campaign has to be really careful on how she is going to be treated (not to alienate voting women)

McCain chose a conservative mom

McCain chose a governor that stood for her state against oil companies and had them pay billions in taxes (Alaska is flooded with cash while most states are in the red)

McCain chose somebody who fought corruption in both parties, old politics and self serving “earmarks”

If the ticket wins, she will be the next Republican candidate to face Obama and Billary in 2012 but with four years experience as a VP

The skeletons are popping up thx to our tabloidic media and audience:

“Trooper gate”: did she or not directly pressure her administration in order to get her brother in law fired?

Pregnant 17yo daughter: suddenly it is an issue (not political yet and thx Obama for wanting to keep kids out of the way) obviously the poor 17yo won’t have the free pass other celebrities “a la Spears familly” get!

Husbands double decade old DUI.

Anything else? McCain campaign says it is all there is and they expected it! We shall see.

So what do you think? Good choice or desperate political maneuvers?

Also, what about the Democrats and democracy?

Nobody from any right wing fringe of the conservative/republican aisle have tried to derail the convention of the Democrats, attacked delegates and burnt and loot properties. You know: the gun and bible totting moron Obama dislikes!

But the left and its Democratic values was again shown in action at the opening of the RNC like usual protesters, slogans, public disruptions, attacks on citizens and properties, disruption of a legit political process, etc, et. It just reminded me that it is how it has always started with the world dictatorships of the left: intolerant brown shirts storm troopers marching in the streets and imposing their Democratic views via violence and intimidation, the first steps to re=education or concentration camps! You guys must be so proud of your activists! Just keep it up and you will scare the American people away from your “tolerance”.

I am already done with the presidential race. Both camps are resorting to stupid TV advertising to cater to their stupid bases of ignoramuses while pointing fingers at each other for running a “negative campaign”. I was expecting, hoping for a better debate!

It is far too early for this junk to start and I am done already. YOU, people, will get the President YOU DESERVE! Not the best one or the one you voted for (for half of you) – just the one you deserve.

As far as I see it today, both candidates are incredibly neck to neck despite totally different agenda and media appeal. Think of it: while the “Kennedy to be” was attracting up to 250,000 Germans at a monument dedicated to Prussian military supremacy, the other one was visiting a German grocery store in the middle of nowhere, America. Still, Americans are still divided and undecided between the old guy that looks and feel like others we have had and a new guy with a noisy and well orchestrated media machine but little to offer beside radical “changes of heart.”

Again, I would have not closely followed the Democrat party’s primary, I could have liked OBObama (Or Best Offer Bama) for what he says he stands for – but I did follow the fight between his camp and the Clintonites, heard what he had to say and ran from his crazy liberal agenda – until he won and became more of a conservative (pro guns, death penalty, more gov power for Domestic spying, business exoneration for cooperating with gov, off shore drilling despite what his base and liberal congress says.

Who is OBObama? We still don’t know! No resume, a change of mind every two seconds (campaign funding, town hall meetings, support and dump his embarrassing friends and relations, supports and dump his ultra liberal base now that nomination is granted, support and dump anti-oil drilling concept and crowd), a messianic icon pushed down our throats by the enamored media, a guy largely financed by the same despicable good old businesses he criticizes.

Is he just one of these professional politicians, one of these guys blowing with the wind like the “wind cones” I mention so often on these blogs: colorful, empty, blowing with the wind?

How can he, with a straight face, go around and tell us today that offshore drilling is part of the solution to become energy independent within 10 years, when he had, along with his base and other Arnold and Pelosis, argued before that it was not even part of a solution? How can he gather a crowd of believers today and get incensed and applauded after saying he believes in “Red”, when a week ago he got the same results saying “Blue”?

He is just another of these cynical “Washingtonites” he denounces every day “as part of the problem”. After all, the successful politicians “a la senator Kennedy” all started young and had to do whatever it takes one day to get the long lasting position they have held for so long! That is why , maybe, they spend millions for a job that only pays a couple of $100k a year!

McCain kind of old kind of reassuring when listening to the crazy leftist agenda. Sure, he goes slow, fumbles around and looks and feels like the good old familiar establishment – he does not show any audacity but for now, for sure, he seems to carry the hope of 44% of the voters! Will he be elected to defeat arrogance and extreme audacity? Will he be elected by people frightened by a media made phenomenon?

Why is OBObama still dragging in the polls? Is it really because of Mc Cain’s “negative campaign” or just because he is too much, all over the place and full of himself?

Finally, I cannot even believe that the “race card” is also suddenly becoming an issue when I honestly think that nobody really cares about it. I mean, Mc Cain is often referred as our typical American old white politician, from the political establishment! Did you notice that he was white? In the meantime, the Clintons were the one who brought race in the race (http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/2008-01-24-sc-bill-clinton_N.htm), and Jackson the one saying OBObama was “acting White” (http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/09/19/jackson.jena6/index.html) or using the “n” word when referring to him ( http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/07/16/jackson.nword.ap/index.html ). His wife is the one who stated that the country had done nothing to make her proud of it, and in 2007, Sharpton said that “just because you”re our color doesn’t make you our kind.”  (http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2003566724_blacksummit11.html?referrer=digg).

Today, McCain is pointed out as the racist because he compared OBObama as a tabloidic celebrity loved by the media. Bringing the race card against Mc Cain, and us, white voters, is not a good idea for one simple reason: The Republican campaign has not (yet?) talked about race and only Democrats and black activists have so far been guilty of doing it. Would Mc Cain get a free pass for repeating Bill Clinton’s statements or calling OBObam a “N” or threatening to “cut his nuts” (Jackson again!)? I doubt it! That would be political suicide.

Tell you what, all of you the thin skinned professional victims and hypocrites: you don’t have to remind us! It has been more than a year that OBObama has been “groomed” for the job! We have noticed that he is black – don’t insult our intelligence and trust – and trust us when I say we don’t really care – and trust us when I say that if he makes it an issue and starts hinting that he might not get elected because we are racists, that will do it piss us off – and he won’t be elected!

He will be judged like McCain, the old white guy, for the force of his character, his agenda and his flip flopping, not for the color of his skin. Amen!
