Who else is ready for some cliff diving?

December 11, 2012

Who else is ready for some cliff diving? I was wondering if this was a sentiment shared by others of my ilk. All this talk of fiscal cliffs seems to be a bit overdone. Maybe it’s just election fatigue and crisis fatigue setting in, but I find myself struggling to work up any great amount […]

Reblogged from mykeystrokes.com: “… And I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen.” — Richard Mourdock, GOP candidate for the U.S. Senate Life is sacred. That, Mourdock would later insist, was what he was trying to say last week during a debate […]

"The Sound of Crickets": Conservative Sites Silent About GOP Voter-Registration Fraud

October 6, 2012

Reblogged from mykeystrokes.com: What began last week as a trickle—a report from the Palm Beach Post that the Florida Republican Party was cutting ties with a firm that turned in "questionable" voter-registration forms in one county—has now grown into a pretty ugly flood. Turns out the Florida GOP paid the firm, Strategic Allied Consulting, to […]

"We Never Liked You Anyway": The Knives Are Out As Conservatives Turn On Romney

September 26, 2012

Reblogged from mykeystrokes.com: As often as not, parties nominate candidates for president that pretty much all their own partisans acknowledge are less than inspiring. Democrats were so excited about Barack Obama in 2008 partly because their previous two nominees, John Kerry and Al Gore, rode to the nomination on a stirring sentiment of "Well, OK, […]

How easy is it to take video and sound clips out of context and abuse them? I think this clip says it all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PL3CB99D6B204F307E&v=bQu2SVFF-cU&feature=player_embedded#! I think it’s important view the entire context of a quote or speech but also important to ask, what did you mean when you made a given statement? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/18/mitt-romney-47-percent-full-video-_n_1893615.html The entire […]

The current story is that an ex-felon using multiple assumed names  such as Sam Bacile, on probation with a restriction against using the internet, produced an offensive film that has been used to stir up revolt and as a possible cover for Al Qaeda to attack embassies.  Random horrible actors were used, and many lines were dubbed over […]

My Guy Lies Better Than Your Guy!

August 3, 2012

This isn’t actually true if we’re speaking about presidential elections generally and Mitt Romney and Barak Obama specifically, I want it to be true.  Campaigns aren’t based on who has the better facts, but who has the better sounding lies.  When it comes to lying, no one can possibly hope to compete with Mitt.  He’s got a […]
