I think - the democratic party has sunk to new lows - their arrogance is astounding inclduding the arrogance of the surrogates, supporters and bloggers for Obama. They have all blown the top off of "new lows".

But whatever - good luck with that!

Sara Paline doesn't even begin to deserve what the Obama MSM and the retarded "liberal left" has been dealing out to her.

Barack "I-read-Axelrod-talking-points" Obama's associations are relevant. If McCain launched his political career in the home of a domestic terrorist, his political career would not get off the ground.

Of course, the Democrat party continues to honor a domestic terrorist (ex-Klansman Robert Byrd, Dem-WV), so maybe Obamacons just have an affinity for these types.

HI Close,

You seem to treat politics as a spectator sport -- and you seem to take it personally.

Someone's not liking the candidate you like DOESN'T qualify as a personal insult against you.

Most people at this blog think Obama is a better bet than McCain. I'm the most reluctant of them.

You, apparently, think McCain is better bet than Obama. Oh well.

So, we'll all vote the way we want and see what happens.

Is it really worth getting irritated over?

Danny,

I agree that the national Dems sunk to lows (esp. during the primaries). I sent the DNC half a check (the right half), with a note stating that the other half disappeared -- like my Florida vote.

That doesn't mean that I hate all Dem candidates.

"Retarded 'liberal left'"?? That's cute, but you sound irritated. There's no need to be.

In some ways, you and I view politics differently, that's all. We're still fellow Americans.

If you want a glimpse of how I approach politics, study up on the current economic crises AND the failure of regulations (securities, accounting, lending...) since even before Enron fell in December 2001.

Then, study up on who has been giving money to candidates in BOTH parties.

Then, study up on how politicians voted in terms of corporate regulation, and which regulators the White House appointed.

Yeah, this'll take time, but it's eye-opening.

If you own stocks (even via a mutual fund), you might want to check out my piece on Lehman Executives' redistribution of shareholder wealth.

Though that post focuses on Lehman, it is one of MANY companies whose execs have -- for years -- legally siphoned off shareholder dollars.

That's not good for us ordinary folks' retirement security.

To me, that's a meaty political issue that deserves attention.
