So all these things he said in the past were fine but all of a sudden he's out of line for saying things that he's been saying for years? Are we to believe McCain didn't look at Hagee or Parsley at all before he begged for their endorsements?

Just End it Already...

Why wait until June 3? Obama leads with delegates, he leads with super delegates, he leads in the popular vote, he's going to win the nomination. Why not just end it before Clinton hurts the party more than she already has?

Rove wants Dems to win now?...

And her ego was far too big for her to realize that Karl Rove probably doesn't have the best interests of the Democratic Party in mind. He's a freaking McCain adviser. Does it occur to anyone in her cult that he may be releasing this information because they want her to be elected because they know they can beat her?

Sexism is a convenient excuse for failing miserably...
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Vote2008/story?id=4889014&page=1
Clinton, the first woman to make a serious bid for a major party's presidential nomination, said she did not think that racism was a factor in her bruising battle with Sen. Barack Obama.
Perhaps she should tell her surrogates that racism isn't supposed to be a factor in the election because they obviously didn't get the memo. Her surrogate, and her husband, suggesting that Obama is nothing but an affirmative-action candidate. Her campaign putting stories out there about Obama's pastor and his supposed Islamic heritage. Her surrogates suggesting that he attended a madrassah. Her entire campaign strategy has been based on racist. I haven't seen a single statement however criticizing Hillary based on her sex. Not a single one. In fact she's been immune to some criticism that's been leveled at Obama because of her sex.
Her campaign aides told ABC News that she intends to keep campaigning through the final primary on June 3. Clinton also took a shot at Obama for acting as if he has already won and not even campaigning in Kentucky.
Maybe he's acting like he won because he's won. I think he's been very understanding given her refusal to bow out gracefully but at some point he has to get on with winning the election in November, he can't keep holding her hand and saying "No Hillary, you still have a shot" forever.
Clinton's comments in the Washington Post echo what many of her supporters have bitterly complained about as the long Democratic battle has neared an end -- that she is treated differently because she's a woman and if she eventually loses, it will be because of her gender.
If Clinton loses, which she will, it will be because of who she is and who her husband is. It has nothing to do with her gender. Her candidacy has been important because it has proved that most people are willing to look at a woman in the exact same way they look at a man. They looked at her in an objective and fair manner and didn't like what they saw. Accusing them of sexism is petty and stupid.
Clinton, they charge, has been criticized for things that a male candidate would never take heat for -- her appearance, her emotions, her spouse's sex life.
The petty criticisms seem to have been confined to the beginning of the race, I haven't heard anything about her appearance lately. As for her spouse, if a male candidate had as little control over their spouse as she has over hers (to the point where she's screwing everything that moves) you better believe there'd be a lot of comment on it. Nothing strikes at a man's supposed manhood like being a cuckold. If anything, she gets a lot more sympathy than a male candidate would in a similar situation.
And many of her female supporters worry that their chance to see a woman elected U.S. president ends with Clinton.
She's not the only viable female candidate around. That kind of egotism is what got her into this situation in the first place.
"If Hillary Clinton is not the nominee, we will not support the nominee," she said.
That's the stupidest thing someone could do. Do these women think McCain will care about women's issues? Obama has great ratings from women's rights organizations, McCain doesn't.
"Young people don't understand how far we've come and how hard we've worked to get here. They can't see what it took for us to ensure that Clinton would have a chance at the White House. We have been out there fighting these fights and we've made progress. But as soon as she started running, all this sexist garbage comes out," she said
And I suppose blacks have never had a problem getting elected to public office? Not to mention the constant racism coming from the Republicans, the media and the Clinton campaign from the point he emerged as a viable candidate.
In an ABC News-Washington Post poll, nearly a quarter of Clinton supporters said if she loses, they will vote for Republican nominee Sen. John McCain of Arizona over Obama.
There's a very selfish and self-righteous cultishness that permeates the Clinton campaign and it's sickening.
"Women will always have to work harder than men to prove their competence. A man would never be subjected to the same treatment," she said. "It will be hugely disappointing to many women if Clinton is unable to go the distance. But there are plenty of very strong women in public office and other venues who will pick up the torch. Without a doubt, a woman will be president."
I honestly think Clinton's people have forgotten that Obama is black. He's not treated like any other man, he gets just as much crap as she does. Nobody talks constantly about her pastor and I'm sure he's said some pretty crazy, anti-Democratic (anti-democratic too) things. I doubt her pastor is pro-choice, pro-gay and pro-birth control all of which are key Democratic issues.

Stop Throwing Away Good Money...
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/11/clinton-adviser-clinton-willing-to-lend-campaign-more-money/
When is it going to end with Hillary? Her campaign is racing full speed towards the cliff and nobody's thinking to put on the brakes. This money she's throwing at her campaign is not going to make any difference. She's already contributed so much while Obama's momentum just increases. By the time she finally decides to drop out she's going to have a huge debt she'll be unable to repay. I don't think Obama should do anything to help her out if she keeps throwing away all this money for nothing, he's going to need every dollar he can get for the general election. Even in the unlikely eventuality that she manages to steal the election, she's going to enter the general election with a huge money problem and no proof that people will suddenly start showering her with money. I know that while I will support her if she's the nominee, I certainly will not be giving her any money.

The Writing's On The Wall...
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/05/07/democrats.race/index.html
From all that I've heard it appears that Hillary is beginning to see the writing on the wall. People are suggesting that the superdelegates are rushing to Obama and Hillary is making plans to drop out after the late May primaries. I really hope that's true. I've also heard she's going to start acting like a Dem and tone down the hateful rhetoric about Obama.
Sen. Hillary Clinton vowed to stay in the race until her party has a nominee.
What Hillary doesn't understand, or at least doesn't say, is that the party won't have a nominee until she drops out. It's not meant to be for her. She's the only one who can give us a nominee and she can do it by dropping out and endorsing Obama.

Wizardry?!?...

This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Wizardry!?!? WTF????
First off, last I checked religious beliefs are not sufficient reason for someone to be fired. Since this was a public school district he should sue them, they just can't do that. Second, cheap magic tricks you learn off the back of a crackerjack box do not equal Wizardry. I swear, there are some fucked up people in parts of this country.
And I really want to know what fucked up kid ratted the poor teacher out. How badly did his/her parents screw him up that the first thought upon seeing someone perform a magic trick is to have them burned as a witch?

Hillary's Convenient Voter's Rights Position...
http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/05/hillary_campaign_says_no_to_ne.php
Does anybody actually believe that Hillary gives a crap about the voters of Michigan or Florida? If she had lost the states she'd be demanding that they not be counted. The only thing she cares about is winning. While I wouldn't be devastated if they were counted in a fair and reasonable way (like the one that the state agreed to), they did break the rules. They're not owed anything. Whatever they get is really a gift from the DNC.
And does anybody else question Hillary's sincerity about staying in so everyone in the last states can have a say? If their roles were reversed, Hillary would have started calling for Obama to drop out sometime in February. Bill would be on the stump every day spouting racial codewords and demanding that Obama drop out. They would be screaming for all to hear that she has an insurmountable lead and he's being unreasonable to stay in. In short, everything that Obama has avoided doing even as he has amassed an unassailable lead over Hillary.

Pope Nazi Makes Another Stupid Statement...
http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/05/10/pope.sex.ap/index.html
It's almost cute that Pope Nazi thinks anyone cares what he has to say. His own followers don't obey his edicts. Millions of Catholics use birth control. More than half of Catholics support birth control (and I can only imagine the huge majority who would support a woman choosing artificial insemination if that was necessary). All these statements do is prove how little power the Vatican actually has over its own people.
"No mechanical technique can substitute the act of love that two married people exchange as a sign of a greater mystery," Benedict said.
Said the freaky old guy in a dress who took a voluntary oath to never have sex. Here's a hint Joe, it wouldn't be a mystery to you if you hadn't taken the oath.

Kentucky and W. Virginia...
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/05/09/west.virginia/index.html
West Virginians will head to the polls Tuesday for the state's Democratic primary between Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. But what will the vote there really mean after new delegate totals show Obama with a sizable lead?
I don't see what difference W. Virginia and Kentucky will make. Even if they go to Hillary with huge margins, that's been the expectation from the start. It will not come as a surprise that the old, white, largely uneducated populations of these states go for Hillary. Those people are her bread and butter.
Clinton has a 43-point advantage over Obama, 66 percent to 23 percent, according to a survey from the American Research Group released Friday.
While I doubt these numbers, even if she wins both states by this much it won't matter much. These are small states with very few Democratic delegates. They're some of the reddest of red states. They're not swing states. They're the very epitome of the kind of state that Hillary said shouldn't count in deciding the Democratic nominee (I guess traditional red states only don't count if they vote for Obama). How is she going to explain counting these states as "game changers" when she said the exact opposite of all the red states Obama won?
A big Clinton win will send a powerful message that there are a lot of Democrats not ready to get on the Obama bandwagon.
Everybody has to make a choice. Just because I voted for Obama in our primary doesn't mean I wouldn't vote for Hillary if she was the nominee. Just because these people may prefer Hillary doesn't mean they won't vote for Obama when the choice comes in November. People need to stop acting like everyone in America's rural heartland is an ignorant racist who will never vote for Obama just because Hillary happens to be their first choice.
"There was just an AP article posted that found how Sen. Obama's support among hardworking Americans, white Americans is weakening again, and how the whites in both states that have not completed college were supporting me," Clinton said in a USA Today interview May 7.
Hillary needs to stop making racist statements, it's not doing her any favors. Last I checked, whites weren't the group that votes 90+% Democratic.
"They would likely paint him, if he's the nominee, as a far-left liberal who is pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, pro-civil union. That will not play well in West Virginia. Social issues register very high on the meter here," Bass said.
Every Democratic President since Roe v. Wade has been pro-choice. I don't see how they would vote for all those Dems but not Obama.

Clintonistas go apoplectic over Richardson endorsement...
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/22/us/politics/22richardson.html...
Man, I have all the respect in the world for President Clinton and all he accomplished, though he could have done far more if he hadn't spent half his time kissing up to the Republicans and the DLC, but the Clintons and their people are seriously flawed human beings. I mean, totally fucked in the head. There is something deeply wrong with them. In this regard they're really no better than Bush or Karl Rove.
"An act of betrayal," said James Carville, an adviser to Mrs. Clinton and a friend of Mr. Clinton.
How dare he decide Obama is a better choice? Doesn't he know his place? Clinton spent a lot of time doing things for Richardson with the expectation that Richardson would do something for him in the future. Hasn't Bill Richardson ever seen the Godfather?
"Mr. Richardson’s endorsement came right around the anniversary of the day when Judas sold out for 30 pieces of silver, so I think the timing is appropriate, if ironic," Mr. Carville said, referring to Holy Week.
Pure crazy gold. So now, all of a sudden, endorsing someone else is akin to selling someone out to be executed in one of the most gruesome and prolonged ways possible. These guys are good.
...Mark Penn, played down the importance of the Richardson endorsement, suggesting that the time "when it could have been effective has long since passed."
I doubt he'd be saying that if Richardson had endorsed Hillary. But of course all the Clinton people seem to be truth challenged so I guess it's not a surprise. Just say it Mark, you're jealous. You joined the wrong campaign and now you're bitter because Obama's kicking your ass.
Mr. Richardson said he was dispirited by the tone of the Democratic nominating fight, reflecting a sentiment that has been increasingly voiced by party leaders. Unlike many others, though, Mr. Richardson placed the blame on Mrs. Clinton.
Who is blaming Obama? The blame falls quite clearly at the feet of Hillary and her campaign. Who created the 3am ad? Who endorsed McCain over her Democratic opponent? Who has been trying her hardest to destroy any chances of Obama winning should he be the nominee?
Mr. Richardson was still wearing the beard that he grew during what he called a period of decompression after leaving the presidential race.
Is this some sort of rule now? You have to grow a beard when you leave the Presidential race? First Gore and now Richardson, what will Hillary do?

Hillary is really getting desperate. SNL already gave her free campaign commercials in the opening skits two weeks in a row. Now she comes on the show herself and drives home the fact that she really can't stand the thought of losing. If she spent as much time thinking up winning strategies as she does whining about how unfair everything is she'd be winning this thing. Now she's stuck bitching on SNL about how nobody's falling in line behind her candidacy.

People Should Concentrate on Doing Their Jobs...

Ok, seriously, this shit has to stop. If you don't want to do your job then quit. Go flip fucking hamburgers at McDonalds. If you're a doctor, be a doctor. If your patient wants a pap smear, give her one. I don't care if she's married or not, that's really none of your business either. If she wants the pill, give her the pill, that's your job. If she's pregnant and she wants a referral for an abortion, give her one, it's not your job to make medical decisions against your patient's wishes. If you're a pharmacist, you shouldn't be able to pick and choose what prescriptions you fill. You see that piece of paper in front of you, that's a prescription. If you wanted to write prescriptions maybe you should have chosen a different specialty. If you want to put your stupid superstitions ahead of medicine, you chose the wrong damn profession.
I can't pick and choose what parts of my job I want to perform and neither should anyone else. You'll notice you don't see any of these sexist assholes refusing to prescribe Viagra to unmarried men. Somehow it seems Christian morality only extends to refusing vital medical care to women.
I guess Canada isn't always the liberal oasis we think it is.

If your patient wants a pap smear, give her one. I don't care if she's married or not, that's really none of your business either. If she wants the pill, give her the pill, that's your job. If she's pregnant and she wants a referral for an abortion, give her one, it's not your job to make medical decisions against your patient's wishes. If you're a pharmacist, you shouldn't be able to pick and choose what prescriptions you fill. You see that piece of paper in front of you, that's a prescription. If you wanted to write prescriptions maybe you should have chosen a different specialty. If you want to put your stupid superstitions ahead of medicine, you chose the wrong damn profession.
I can't pick and choose what parts of my job I want to perform and neither should anyone else. You'll notice you don't see any of these sexist assholes refusing to prescribe Viagra to unmarried men. Somehow it seems Christian morality only extends to refusing vital medical care to women.
I guess Canada isn't always the liberal oasis we think it is.

I really don't see what his opinion on abortion has to do with winning basketball games. He wasn't hired to teach theology. I've always said that the quality of a Catholic college is inversely proportional to the amount of influence the church as a whole has on its operations. This is a perfect example of this. The only thing that should matter is that he wins the games, everything else is pretty much meaningless.

The fact that he was supposed to be taking meds and stopped doesn't surprise me. I have experience with someone who stopped taking meds and it's truly scary how violent and irrational they can become. There really has to be some way we can compel people to take these medications because it really can make the difference between life and death.
