Our newly cloned Vee-Pee canidate sez … I championed reform to end the abuses of earmark spending by Congress. In fact, I told Congress – I told Congress, ‘Thanks, but no thanks,’ on that bridge to nowhere. If our state wanted a bridge, I said we’d build it ourselves.

Uh huh, sure.  Is this a Big Lie or a Little White Lie, I am confused.

Karl Rove: She’s a populist, she’s an economic and a social conservative, she’s a reformer, she took on the incumbent governor of the state Frank Murkowski – Republican – beat him in the primary, won an upset in the general election. She’s a former mayor. She’s the mayor of, I think, the second largest city in Alaska before she ran for governor.

Earlier this month, Karl Rove repeatedly argued that Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine (D) would not be “capable” of being Vice President. He complained that “he’s been a governor for three years” and said Kaine was mayor of only the 105^th largest city in America, referring to Kaine’s tenure as mayor of Richmond, VA. “It’s not a big town,” he quipped.

Watch it:

Kaine was indeed mayor of the ‘the 105th largest city in America.’ While there, he governed nearly 200,000 people and managed a bureaucracy of over 8,000 employees..  By contrast, Palin was mayor of Wasilla, AK, a town of just over 8,000 people just over 8,000 that currently employs just over and – contrary to Rove’s claim – didn’t even make it into the 10 largest cities in Alaska while she was mayor.

Hell, it is so nice to have the soothsayers, the inside power brokers, profiling and spinning this crap for us … I now understand that she is damn nere Wonder Woman! I feel much, much better about it all now.  Who ever elected Karl Rove to anything in this country?

But wait there is more!

In 2006, the Eagle Forum Alaska sent a questionnaire to all the state’s gubernatorial candidates, including Sarah Palin (R). had this response about the Pledge of Allegiance.  Here is the question: Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?

Sarah: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance. However, the words “Under God” didn’t appear in the Pledge of Allegiance until 1954; the founding fathers had nothing to do with them. The Pledge itself, in fact, wasn’t even written until 1892.

For what it is worth … Lambasting someone because their sixteen year old daughter is pregnant is downright tacky.  The press should lay off her on this issue.  The last time I heard anything this ugly was when Rush Limbaugh referred to Chelsea Clinton as “butt ugly when she was only 12 years old.”  Families should be off limits, especially if they are kids.  The media needs to clean up its act in this country.

And the madness continues … “As I deplaned in Minneapolis yesterday afternoon, I half-expected some elephant-pin-wearing John Candy look alike at the bottom of the jetway to hold up his hand and declare. Sorry, folks! Convention’s off. Moose outside shoulda told ya.” … today’s issue of Slate Magazine online.

“My friends,” John McCain recently informed a crowd, “we spent $3 million of your money to study the DNA of bears in Montana.” … Why is he calling us his friends?  You don’t do to your friends, what they are currently doing to us.

Hillary Clinton throws almost everything behind Barack Obama … “almost.”

Clinton didn’t waste any time telling her supporters that they should stand behind Obama. “Whether you voted for me, or voted for Barack, the time is now to unite as a single party with a single purpose,” she said. “We are on the same team, and none of us can sit on the sidelines.”

It was almost reminiscent to one of those old bloody Hollywood B-Type movies, where after gallantly taking a bullet the wounded hero melodramatically says to his comrades in arms … “Go On Without Me.”

And doing my patriotic best you can count on me to do just that.
