If McCain is Unstable then Biden is too

Here I go delving into politics again…hmmm..  Anyway I would like to take this space that the media and everyone in the world seems to have gone left.  The media I am convinced is democratic and are really trying their best to smear the entire John McCain campaign. Not that John isn’t doing a bad job of smearing Obama either or at least according to the media this is what they are gearing up for next since he is behind in the polls.

The latest media guffaw has to be that McCain is being portrayed as erratic, as being old 72 and that any moment right now he could go senile and even though Biden is obviously a dear friend of McCain’s , Biden claims that it is  just not safe to have him in office. He could keel over at any moment ( I read last weekfrom the AP that McCain has a 1 in 25 chance of dying in the office because of his age, even though at the beginning of the campaign McCain got a clean bill of health.)

The press are daring to touch any statistics that Obama may actually have to run for his life in office because of some angry prejudiced nutjob.

All of this swinging to the Obama side makes me extremely leary, like the press are paid off.

What is even more worrisome is Joe Biden who claims he is just your average cup of Joe.  Joe Biden who if forced to accept the office in case of something happening to Obama probably has just as much chance of dying in office as McCain, being 66 and all and once treated for a brain aneurysm.

But the worrisome part is that Biden claims to be your average guy who eats at Katie’s restaurant in Delaware, and shops at the local home depot.  I am telling you this guy may have never been in a home depot except to make a campaign speech.  As Katie’s restaurant goes , James showed me an article where the restaurant closed in the Clinton campaign. If Joe is eating there on a regular basis, then we really do need to worry about his instability.

This is what I hate about politics, the smearing of the campaigns. McCain has done it too, but it is not as noticeable because he mainly sticks to internet ads. One of the things that seems to have hurt him is not responding to the negativity about Sarah Pallin.  I think people were expecting him to have a speech or something and recently I saw a news article where he said the negativity was not worth responding to. The media jumped all over it and said that deep down McCain really thought this about Pallin since he refused to respond to the negativity.

I am not a republican and I am not a McCain supporter but I really am tired of the media and the one sided story the media is portraying.

Everything is well in democrat land. We have a man that is embarking on a new camelot, and at campaign rallies they are serving hot dogs and having face painting. Its a feel good moment, its an illusion because we are supposed to feel good about all of this when wall street is running amuck and we are in a recession.

The McCain rallies just seem formal because in the last few weeks they have been portrayed as people that just want to work and get the job done. However the press has attacked this. John McCain suspended his campaign to work on the budget crisis but then was attacked for not being able to multi-task, then the press and Obama actually blamed the budget crisis on McCain.

In the future I  would love to see a politician that gets elected to office on his own. What I mean by this is not hiring the press to spout off about the other candidate. If Obama really is the man, then he should be able to stand on his own accord. If Obama really has changed our country and our dear friend Biden, then I should know more about them than just being great orators.

If anything I have started to support Sarah Pallin these last few weeks because SHE IS NOT A WASHINGTON INSIDER.

Joe Biden and McCain admit they have reached across the aisles to strike a bipartisan conversation.

What happens in Washington stays in Washington and the rest of us are all outsiders.

Take a look at this caterpillar

I will be heading out to the field soon, and take a look at this caterpillar. I think its pretty cool.

Give Credit where Credit is Due and Move On: Let’s Move To Canada

I should preface this post with saying that I really don’t think Obama or McCain is qualified enough to run this country in the direction it needs to go.  I probably won’t vote for several reasons. I feel no need to throw my support against a mediocre choice ( and I have felt this way for every election), and I will be away during the election and I don’t really think they count the absentee ballots.

I feel disheartend that the America people choose a president the way they do and I feel even more disheartened that it has become a debate of who has the flashier campaign and the money to pour into advertising.

I actually was nervous for Sarah Pallin last night because of all the negative press that she received. I actually was not a Pallin supporter and I actually believed that McCain really had lost it when he picked her and it was an obvious market ploy.  However no one deserves to have to get up in front of a captive audience and be ridiculed.  Reporters and news programs were ripping her to shreds before she even got up there to say anything. No one’s family should have to go through that regardless of what you believe. If the tables were turned and all the negative press was geared toward OBAMA then people would cry foul and prejudice, racism, etc. No one has even dared and trust me Obama had many blunders in his own debate too.

But because Sarah Pallin is a woman and happens to be a white conservative she is supposed to not cry foul at the negative press that she has been receiving where news stations will edit clips to portray her as what they want her to be.

Getting back to the debate, I actually thought Sarah Pallin did a great job last night and held her own.  People are saying she was coached, whatever it really doesn’t matter. She stood up in a time of uncertainity and was able to deliver and stood her ground. I actually thought she was more no nonsense and spoke the truth. Let me give you example:

The moderator posed the questions to Joe Biden: Do you believe in homosexual rights?

Joe Biden went on this whole rant about civil rights liberties where he actually I believed tried to convince the America public that he would actually support gay marriage if it came down to it. A move that he tried to appeal to the gay population.

Sarah Pallin answered it honestly and true to her party line.

When the moderator flatly asked Joe Biden did he approve of gay marriage, he said no he did not.  He wanted you to believe one thing but when pushed he backpedaled into saying no he did not support that.

At that moment I felt that it was disheartenening for the America public who probably will be swooned by visions of a camelot ( with the historical election of Obama), and good neighborly Joe Biden as vp. Here we had someone trying to convince you that he feels otherwise when in the end will just do what he wants to do anyway.

Who speaking of…. Sarah Pallin with her five children is way more middle class than Mr. Biden who has come from a privelged family and probably lives in a nice neighborhood and has for most of his life.

Whether you support Republicans or Democrats, give support and credit when it is due. Give Sarah Pallin credit for standing up there and looking very polished and move on.

But I guess its not as newsworthy when people overcome the obstacles set forth by the media.
