Why did the Obama campaign not ask to have the Palin mannequin taken down in west Hollywood? Shows a lack of character, especially by a half-black man that should, one would think, be particularly sensitive to this kind of neanderthal bullsh*t. And yes, there was an Obama something up as well, but the McCain org. did contact them and ask it be removed. The Palin was taken down after this, still without contact from Obama's org.

Jodi, just be thankful that the only thing that happened was your sign getting stolen.  There are a lot of idiots on both sides that are doing so much worse to people displaying political signs in their yards or stickers on their cars.  I'm afraid of seeing what all is going to happen over the next 4 days.

Someone who 99.9% of the people have never heard of is endorsing Obama. I'm sure that will make a big difference at the polls.

Now that's interesting.

THE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE have an article, where a key element of the Neoconservatism and an important contributor to the Reagan administration says he will support Barack Obama, is not significant? Francis Fukuyama is a professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, but his opinion is not important anymore.

Miss Alaska Sarah Palin, 2 years governor of Alaska, former mayor of a small town, is a GREAT choice for vice president...

Am I missing something here? Or someone simply DO NOT QUESTION the decisions of the Republican party, no matter how stupid they are?

ACORN is a non-profit, non-partisan social justice organization with national headquarters in New York, New Orleans and Washington, D.C.

Non-partisan? I don't think so.

I think they were joking with you when they referred to ACORN as non-partisan.  It's always been abundantly obvious that they were completely partisan on the side of Democrats.  No one could seriously argue otherwise.

Marcio, he is an intellectual. Republicans do not like them. All that thinking and asking questions and stuff.

I am pissed I live in a strong republican neighborhood and I had an Obama sign in my yard that has now been stolen.

You're pissed at that but you made no comments at all on all the stolen McCain signs from the dying child hoax from the Obama supporting Iowa radio station?

"Suits that run up to $1500.00"


This is getting silly. Are you telling me Obama owns a 100 sets of suits?

Fukuyama is one of the original Neoconservatives. His "End of History" was the foreign policy blueprint for GWB. A couple of years into the Iraq war Fukuyama broke from GWB. I don't quite remember why. He kind-of-sort-of repudiated himself in an article, but he was much more upset with GWB than with himself.
