Palin and Clinton spoofed on SNL



The best SNL introduction in years Tina Fey had me pretty convince at first glance she was Sarah Palin and Amy Poehler did her Hillary Clinton. They really laid into Palin's positions in politics and rightly so. I am still trying to figure out why having Russia in my backyard would make anybody a part of global politics. So Floridians know a lot about communism because Cuba is so close? Come-on totally dumb. Speaking of which, the latest hub-bub is that Republican Woman are going after Oprah? Are you kidding me? Just because she refuses to have Sarah Palin on her show; a group of Florida woman are going after her. Boy are they in for a surprise, can't wait till it backfires on them and Oprah's viewership and subscriptions go-up. Florida of all places should be careful to get the hive all worked up, it's like messing with Mother Teresa when you poke Oprah.

What you need to decide is do you want to pay attention to Sarah Palin being an anti-semite or check-out the GILF in a bikini totting a gun? Oh so much fun for amateur Photoshop artists. You know nobody would ever do this to Hillary (ok maybe nobody) but there are different rules for men and women in politics and now clearly for Democratic women and Republican women.
Digging deeper, not only is she a member of the NRA (even Michael Moore belongs to this one) but it is also reported that Sarah Palin also supports shooting Wolves from airplanes as a sport; as a close ally of the Safari Club International (does DCheney belong to this too or is that the fat old rich white guy club)? Reportedly she also used the Board of Game of Alaska, who spent $400,000 of public money on brochures and radio ads, to influence the election.

Church and State not for president


I like righteous and tenacious preachers like Wright and Farakan. They serve a purpose to motivate those that need direction. They have the gift to inspire through emotion and say some pretty outrageous words in church? Is this the right message to get the people all fired up in places like the South side of Chicago? I am not sure we want anybody to be referred to as the KKKamerica though or be a part of said establishment. That segment has gone pretty far underground and shrinking unless you need to feed it some hate fuel. Us vs the others is the same kind of chip on the shoulder mentality that keeps the real-estate divided, the schools and kids behind by making a race line. Culture is funny this way and the major media is picking up on it ever so gently and at the same time fighting morality with Spitzer's Emperor Club situation. Although, the issues are obviously more about class and not race and what money can buy; the people with money and the growing margin without do need hope. A deep understanding that money rules in the end is what is needed from a business and a Do The Right Thing perspective and not a us vs "them". We the people can affect change in the industrial complex but we need to do it without prejudice, without religion based on the information we have at hand and let people live a little and make mistakes. Obama is already looking weathered and it seems to me the reality of the politics at work is starting to take its toll. The question remains can he take the heat? We know a Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton ticket could be an ideal and effective team with the charisma and political toughness to make real change for all classes. Subdividing is not the way to go but at this stage of the game it is what it is all about and it is going to get worse. G*d help us.

Democratic Party on Clinton and Obama needles


Tonight the future of the country is in the hands of Texas and Ohio. No pressure folks. Is the new left going to win? Ideals over practicality are at stake. Who has got the fire power to withstand a full Republican attack? Lets focus on the end game people. Really focus. The 2008 Primaries and Caucuses are today and it all on the line for Hillary. She has 238 Superdelegates vs his 194. not sure what the weight is but let hope it is a race to the end. Politics has never been so thrilling. What constitutes a win anyway? A popular vote or a delegate win? Take the poll. The system is in place to protect the people from themselves and thank god that Hillary has a sense of humour as she pars and jokes with Jon Stewart yesterday and with Amy pollard on SNL this past weekend.

Misogynist Politics: Obama vs Clinton machine

The political war of words is in full session between the two democratic candidates. The clock is ticking. Tick-Tock go the Orwell metaphors. "Who do you want answering the phone"? Asks Clinton, somebody who has been there and knows the lay of the land? The Obama camp counters with but she voted for Iraq. Really? Who the heck cares. Move forward dude. Most of American was deceived about it and nobody did anything and then I find this video.



I was really confused and sort of not surprised to find a Barrack video that plays on fear and comparing Hillary Clinton to a police state alla 1984. Have you looked around lately? Remember W and Dick? There is a lot of history of political videos using nuclear scare tactics and other emotional devices. What is funny is that Obama's people don't use his words. You be the judge and listen to the smarter people around you who don't have the leisure or pleasure to make a dumb choice. The guys sound great but there is no depth. Remember the I had a dream speech? There were actionable items in that. Agreed change is good but isn't that what they both are offering? Watch the most recent debate on CN/UNAVISION between the two before Tuesday and see the info people are making decisions on and take a good 10,000 foot view. Experience vs Change.

Obama vs the Clinton Bashing machine


Politics is a dirty game and the Clinton machine has just started to turn it up. A little crying was a great opener yesterday. I can't wait to see what is next. My only question for the peanut gallery is who made Iowa and New Hampshire the deciders? WTF? While it is old news Obama is/was Muslim we would all like to think religeon was not part of our US politics process. The truth is there is that whole middle part of America who cares. What we should all be afraid of is a Huckabee and Chuck Norris ballet according to the polital rumour mill. That would be freaking scary and the beginging of a whole other Reagan-Bush-esque *uck show. The industrial complex has been here for a very long time. So what are you gonna to do 'bout it? Don't forget you can also check check urban legends for yourself at scopes.com before sending your friends political spam. Although I must say it does make for good fodder.
