Hello Biden, Bye Bye Barack

What was Obama thinking? He presents himself as the outsider and the agent of change. Yet, it is the ultimate insider, Senator Kennedy, who anoints him. It is the Super-Delegates who make him the "presumptive" Presidential nominee. And now he chooses another long-time insider, Senator Joe Biden, as his running mate!

He has said that picking his VP is the most important decision he has to make to this point. He blew it! His Grand Tour of Europe and the Middle East seemed to be designed to show him as presidential, not the Rock Star that his opponents are painting him. But this most important choice gives credence to the latter.

If ever he wanted to show to the electorate just how inexperienced and unready he is to be the leader of the country, all he has to do is stand side-by-side with his Vice-Presidential choice. This picture is worth far more than a thousand words. It worth the election. And he's lost!

His only hope is for his opponent, John McCain, to make an even dumber choice.

His Royal Deity, The Decider

Sometime over the course of the last few decades, the Constitution ceased to be preserved, protected and defended. Instead, the add-on, non-Constitutional phrase, "so help me God", seems to have become, "so help ME, GOD."

There never was an "I" in "WE the PEOPLE." Yet, this "I" has become the President of the United States. This "I" has become the Presidential Candidate This "I" has become the PRESUMPTIVE Presidential Nominee.

The Deified Decider chooses the wars we fight. The PRESUMPTIVE Deified Decider solely chooses his Vice-Deified Decider. WHAT HAPPENED TO US MERE MORTALS? WE, the PEOPLE, have to bleed and die based on these deciders. WE, the PEOPlE, have no say in the selection of the Vice-Deity. WE, the PEOPLE, had no choice in the selection of the PRESUMPTIVE decider. That was fore-ordained, in one instance, when he was baptized by the prophet, Senator Ted Kennedy the Baptist, who, ironically, ended up with his head on a table shortly thereafter. The other PRESUMPTIVE decider was ordained after fasting in a Vietnam prison and then wandering for many years in the Senatorial Desert.

This country looks more like the Roman Republic and its surrender to the Emperors then the USA. Our Supreme Court crowns the deity. Our representatives kowtow to the deity. The Constitution is intentionally ignored. WE, the PEOPLE, have become we, the PLEBEIANS!!! GOD the DECIDER promises us THE RAPTURE, with maybe some cake. But just a small peek beyond the gates and we will see...THE RAPTORS!!!

Putin on the Blitz

A long, long time ago in a place far, far, away (from Beijing), a certain Mr. Bush looked into the eyes of a certain Mr. Putin and could see his soul.

EVIDENTLY NOT!!!!

As Mr. Bush and Mr. Putin sat side-by-side, each with their respective spouses, watching the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics, Mr. Putin's forces were stomping all over a small country called Georgia. Mr. Bush, the de jure leader of the USA, was unperturbed. From 8 PM to 12 AM to 3 AM, etc, etc. the President of the United States watched the Olympics. He even had time to play volleyball with some scantily clad Olympian women.

Eventually, after his latest joy ride on Air Force One, President Bush returned to the United States. He then delayed his vacation to Crawford, Texas for a day or so. Occasionally, utterances of empty phrases of protestations came from him and his administration. Meanwhile, Mr. Putin, the de facto leader of Russia, continued to allow his forces to roll over the Georgian Republic. Utterances from the Russians were those of mockery and disdain.

Mr. Putin must have enjoyed the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. But, perhaps more, he must have enjoyed sitting next to the President of the United States as Russian forces trampled a tiny neighbor. Had President Bush looked into the eyes of Putin, he might have seen what was really there....UTTER CONTEMPT!!!
