“Shame on all of yuns”
Today at a McCain townhall meeting, a McCain supporter expressed the outrage of millions of Americans who have had it with the MSM effort to destroy Sarah Palin and coronate the Obamessiah.

“Where are your 30 investigators in Chicago looking at (Rezko) and Ayers?”

Where, indeed.

Here is the text of the massive new RTC-bailout propgram proposed by Sec. Hank Paulson:

From Time Magazine:

A remarkable collection of photographs by award-winning photojournalist James Nachtwey.

Never Forget.

Three front page articles critical of Sarah Palin were run by the NY Times Tuesday. But, thanks to some research by George Marlin, they have now been properly and completely slammed by none other than……..wait for it …………..The NY Times.

This is from a 1984 editorial, written in support of Geraldine Ferarro (source)

Where is it written that only senators are qualified to become President?…Or where is it written that mere representatives aren’t qualified, like Geraldine Ferraro of Queens?…Where is it written that governors and mayors, like Dianne Feinstein of San Francisco, are too local, too provincial?…Presidential candidates have always chosen their running mates for reasons of practical demography, not idealized democracy…. What a splendid system, we say to ourselves, that takes little-known men, tests them in high office and permits them to grow into statesmen. . . . Why shouldn’t a little-known woman have the same opportunity to grow?. . . .the indispensable credential for a Woman Who is the same as for a Man Who – one who helps the ticket.
