Would Obama Pardon Rezko?

Sun Jan 13, 2008 at 07:11:18 AM PDT

By now we all know about Obama's shady house/land deal with Rezko (a Syrian) and his wife. We also know he lied about doing favors for Rezko because he hired one of his employees as an intern and also wrote letters in support of Rezko's slums (which by the way had no heat or hot water for weeks at a time) in Obama's district.

Madonna will help Hillary Clinton combat the Oprah-powered campaign of Barack Obama. Her Madgesty, whose charity work in Malawi has been supported by Bill Clinton's foundation, tells us she stands ready to serve.

Here is the link to the story.

In an interview with WWD.com Madonna was asked the following...

Hillary or Obama?
"Hillary," said his wife.

Because?
"Because I've gotta support the girls," she said. "And because I'm a big fan of the Clintons."

Obama's Drug Problem

Tue Nov 20, 2007 at 01:34:09 PM PDT

I just read about Obama admitting to cocaine use, pot use, and alcohol use. Is this going to be a problem for him in the election? Is this the scandal he was worried about? I think there are going to be many stories to appear about bad things he did in his past. Can America survive another former junkie as President?

Why Are People Supporting John Edwards?

Mon Nov 19, 2007 at 08:20:04 AM PDT

Why are so many people here supporting John Edwards? He voted for the war. He is probably one of the least likely to be elected if he won the nomination. He didn't even win one southern state in the last election. I don't even think he won his home state. He is widely ridiculed for his expensive haircuts and makeup-wearing. He puts on an act like he is for the poor people of America, but he spends more on a haircut than most people earn in a week!

Bimbo Ad is Still Airing in Memphis!

I was watching the news from Memphis tonight. The anchor said that the controversial ad was pulled. Immediately after the report, the commercial aired again! Update: The ad appeared on the 10 0'clock news on WREG-TV Channel 3...The anchor is Claudia Barr. Immediately after her report, the ad aired again. She said the ad was pulled and then went to commercial and that ad aired yet again! It's like the Twilight Zone here with non-stop negative ads!

I just heard the latest Pink cd and it's great. It's her best album yet and the stand out song is "Dear Mr. President." It features the Indigo Girls! You just have to hear this song. It's the best political song in ages. I have included the complete lyrics because I don't remember seeing them posted.

Gov. Bush's son arrested....

Fri Sep 16, 2005 at 02:22:52 PM PDT

John Ellis Bush, the youngest son of Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, was arrested early Friday and charged with public intoxication and resisting arrest, law enforcement officials in Texas said. The 21-year-old nephew of President Bush was arrested by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission at 2:30 a.m. Friday on a corner of Austin's Sixth Street bar district, said spokesman Roger Wade. John Ellis Bush was released on $2,500 bond for resisting arrest, and on a personal recognizance bond for the public intoxication charge, officials said. (Find The Article Here!)

Abortion Issue

Wed Sep 14, 2005 at 10:30:50 AM PDT

Should Democrats be worried so much about abortion rights? Women didn't vote in record numbers in the last election and they knew they could lose this right if Bush won the election. Only 51% of women voted for Kerry and 48% voted for Bush. I always assumed that the vast majority of women were Pro Choice, but that must not be the case.
