Yay Pam and Liz! Hilary is my candidate too. I think it's exciting that people are actually interested/annoyed/ ALIVE about this election. I've never seen so much energy and I think it's a positive thing ...even if it bothers people. It's time to get bothered. I think Hamas (sp?) "endorsing" Obama is intersting and increcibly stupid. How dumb do they think we are? (they walk among us withstanding! ) If nothing else it's entertaining!

Whoa! I must have confused you somewhere along the way with my posts. I am NOT a Hillary fan, nor am I a particular fan of Obama or McCann. Liz is a Hillary fan. For the first time ever, there is no candidate that I would like to see elected from the group that we have to select from. *sigh* Hubby feels the same way and said he may even stay home.

One of BO's staffers resigned becuase he had some kind of connection with Hamas.

Why in the fricking world would you want to have contact before an election with a bunch of idiots like that?

I more and more get the feeling that BO isn't the one running for president....It's his wife and some other back door cronies that put him up to it.

2 McCain aides resigned just recently because they had represented Myanmar's ruling junta.


Seems like the people who are supposed to do the vetting should also leave.

And I just read this -

The Texas megachurch pastor whose past comments about the Catholic Church have caused headaches for John McCain for over two months will issue an apology to Catholics later today, according a top Christian conservative.

John Hagee, pastor of San Antonio's Cornerstone Church, will send a letter to Catholic League President William Donahue expressing "deep regret for any comments that Catholics have found hurtful."

"After engaging in constructive dialogue with Catholic friends and leaders, I now have an improved understanding of the Catholic Church, its relation to the Jewish faith, and the history of anti-Catholicism," Hagee wrote in a letter running just over two pages.

In a carefully-coordinated plan, Donahue accepted the apology with a statement of his own.

“The tone of Hagee’s letter is sincere," Donahue said. "He wants reconciliation and he has achieved it. Indeed, the Catholic League welcomes his apology."

The conservative leader who shared the letter said McCain's campaign was not involved at all in encouraging Hagee to apologize.

Donahue has been among Hagee's most outspoken critics and called on McCain to repudiate the pastor soon after Hagee endorsed the Republican in March.

Hagee has drawn fire for describing Catholicism as "a Godless theology of Hate" and, what some have interpreted as, "the Great Whore."

Hoping to knock Mike Huckabee out of the race, McCain secured Hagee's public endorsement in the days before the March 4th Texas primary. But since then, the GOP candidate has been dogged by questions over why he would accept support from somebody who not only has criticized Catholics but also asserted that Hurricane Katrina was part of God's punishment for the decadence of New Orleanians.

McCain has not disavowed Hagee's endorsement, but has said that it was probably a mistake to pursue. A spokesperson for the candidate declined to comment on Hagee's apology

Well,we still have Ralph Nader!!

I did hear another Republican has pulled out of the party and will be running independently. I can't remember his name for the life of me. I don't think I've even heard of him before.

Or, we could try to get Our Boy Dennis (the Cleveland Menace) to rejoin the race!

Well his supporters managed to throw a wrench in the Nevada State Convention. My husband is a huge fan of Dr. Paul.

That would be Bob Barr, former congressman from Georgia. He hopes to be the Libertarian Presidential candidate.

Your husband would fit in quite nicely in my family. My hubby, son, daughter, son-in-law and daughter-in-law, as well as myself were hoping that Dr. Paul would some day be President Paul. *sigh*
