Rioting democrat America-haters
Rosanne Barr supports riots!
"Rev. Al Sharpton had already called for riots in Denver if Obama is denied the nomination. Actually, Sharpton had merely said that people like him would be 'demonstrating.'
Sharpton's audiences do have a record of violence. Speaking at a 1991 funeral of child in Brooklyn who had been accidentally killed by a Jewish driver, Sharpton's oration was followed by four days of riots and mob violence, including homicide, against Jews. Likewise, in 1995, Sharpton gave a hateful, racist speech in Harlem against a Jewish store renter, whom Sharpton called a 'white interloper.' Later, one of the participants in Sharpton's picketing entered the store and murdered seven people."

ID law could depress black turnout in Ind. - Ben Adler - Politico.com: "Experts say African-American voters — a key constituency of Barack Obama in the primaries thus far — might be disproportionately affected in Tuesday’s Indiana primary by the Supreme Court’s recent decision to uphold the state’s voter identification requirement.
Studies show that African-Americans are especially likely not to have the identification necessary to vote on Tuesday. Several other groups, notably elderly voters, disabled voters and young voters, are also more likely than the general population not to have the necessary identification."

Ohio attorney general admits to affair with employee: "Just 16 months into his four-year-term, Ohio's attorney general admitted he was in over his head as he acknowledged an affair with a subordinate and his failure to stop problems that led to a sexual harassment investigation that brought down three of his aides.
Marc Dann apologized to his wife and supporters but insisted he would not step down. He took responsibility for the scandal, saying he was not prepared for the office or to run such a large agency."

"The European dream is under assault, as the wave of inflation sweeping the globe mixes with this continent’s long-stagnant wages. Families that once enjoyed Europe’s vaunted quality of life are pinching pennies to buy necessities, and cutting back on extras like movies and vacations abroad.
Potentially more disturbing — especially to the political and social order — are the millions across the continent grappling with the realization that they may have lives worse, not better, than their parents."

Is Obama in Bigger Trouble Than Anyone Thinks? - The New Editor
Is Obama in Bigger Trouble Than Anyone Thinks? - The New Editor: "According to the poll, 'McCain now holds a three-point lead over Obama among women; last month, women gave Obama a 13-point margin.'
As a point of comparison, the CNN exit poll after the 2004 presidential election showed Democrat John Kerry winning the women's vote by a three-point margin.
November's a long way off, but if that six-point swing among female voters holds up for McCain, it's a big, big development if Obama is the Dems' nominee."

The Life and Experiences of Cindy McCain-Truth!
see: http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/c/cindy-mccain.htm
Bet you would have never guessed this one! No matter your politics. The media will never tell of this, so pass it on.
There was an article in the Wall Street Journal on Cindy McCain, John's wife. All I ever saw was this attractive woman standing beside John. I was surprised how talented and involved with world problems she is. This is a summary of the article.
She graduated from Southern Cal and was a special-needs teacher.After her Dad died she became involved with his beer distributing firm and is now the chairwoman. Sales have doubled since she has taken over from her father.
They have a marriage prenuptial agreement, her assets remain separate.
She is involved around the world clearing land mines - travels to these countries on a detonation team and service on their board.
They have a 19 year old serving in Iraq, another son in the Naval Academy, a daughter recently graduated from Columbia Univ., an adopted daughter in high school, and a son who is the finance guy at the beer firm.
Raised kids in Phoenix, Az rather than Washington DC.(better atmosphere) He commuted.
In 1991, Mrs. McCain came across a girl in an orphanage in Bangladesh. Mother Teresa implored Mrs. McCain to take the baby with severe cleft palate. She did so without first telling her husband. The couple adopted the girl who has had a dozen operations to repair her cleft palate and other medical problems.
They have a Family Foundation for children's causes.
She's active with "Halo Trust" - to clear land mines, provide water and food in war ravaged and developing countries.
She will join an overseas mission of "Operation Smile", a charity for corrective surgery on children's faces.
She has had two back surgeries and became addicted to pain killers. She talks openly about it which she says is part of the recovery process.
I'm surprised the media is so quiet about her attributes. She sounds more capable than Hillary or Obama. We would really get two for the price of one. A person with business and international experience. John did work for the firm for awhile when he left the Navy. She, however, has the real business experience.
Very interesting.

Disgusting that the idiot voters allow this.... everywhere!

American Thinker Blog: The Real Reason Why Rev Wright Dissed Obama
American Thinker Blog: The Real Reason Why Rev Wright Dissed Obama: "The democrats' approach to the energy crisis is far more typical. The US could be energy independent in ten years if we resumed building nuclear power plants and drilling for oil and gas in Alaska and the offshore waters of the continental shelf and constructed new refineries. Moreover the bold target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions 80% by 2050 could be easily attained if every coal fired power plant were replaced by nuclear. Why won't the democrats agree to it? Because it is a solution. Solutions are not the foundation for fund raising by democrats, environmental extremists or global warming activists."
Energy idiocy!
Strange Behavior
"Royal Dutch Shell (nyse: RDSA - news - people ) estimates that the waters of the outer continental shelf contain 100 billion barrels of technically recoverable oil. But 85% of the U.S. coastline is off limits to drilling by congressional decree. Why not be more like Cuba, which has leased oil exploration acreage 50 miles from Key West?
Then there are the 1.5 trillion barrels that Shell estimates are trapped in the oil shale deposits of Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. On federal lands, Shell has been researching methods to cook oil out of the shale (basically oil-soaked rock) without mining it or polluting groundwater. But Congress passed a measure last December that prohibits spending to establish a program to lease oil shale on federal lands."
