OVER AND OVER EASY

by Tnut

“When arguing with a stone an egg is always wrong.” African proverb.

Stir in, hate, slurs, lies, innuendo, and quiet racism. Add a pinch of fear and you have the recipe for a Republican campaign. Toss in a grumpy old man and the minions of a failed administration and “viola” you have the McCain=Bush campaign.
The same [...]

GREEN WITH ENVY

by Tnut

“Envy is the art of counting the other fellow’s blessings instead of your own.”
Harold Coffin quotes
The Bush-McCain “Pea-Pod Express”, wheezes down the road, with a failed President and a grumpy old man watching the world go by as America rejects their slur attacks and gutter politics.
The slimy ads get attention for sure. The voter [...]

THE BIRDS OF A FEATHER

by Tnut

A bird in the hand is worth 2 that are Bush.
Did McCain have to call off his “event” at an offshore oil well because of a 12 mile oil spill? And somehow it must have been Obamas‘ fault. Where are the pundits on this issue?
What kind of pants does McCain wear?
Serge. Thats all he’s [...]

THERE WILL BE TANTRUMS!

by Tnut

People who fly into a rage always make a bad landing.  ~Will Rogers
It is sure to come. The whining will soon turn into full blown tantrum as the cabal of McCain manipulators try and grab the last straws of a failed leadership.
Anger rules their world, but is kept, for the most part, out [...]

POLITICS OF JEALOUSY

by Tnut

“Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius.”
Fulton J. Sheen quotes (American religious, 1895-1979)
Well, its politics as usual from the rigid Republican right. Attack ads and scurrilous slurs rule their day. It is all they have left as strategy for an aging, mired in the past, and flawed campaign.
They are falling back into a [...]

PHONY EXPRESS

by Tnut

The curmudgeon McCain continues his campaign of lowering the bar of civility.
His unbridled anger at the success of the Obama campaigns’ ability to capture the imagination of the nation, has led him to make statements that he must surely regret.
He accused Obama of wanting America to lose a war. He stated that Obama would allow [...]

WHINE AND POSES

by Tnut

The whine from the right is incessant.
Turn on the radio and that is all you hear from the mean streamers of the A M channels.
They have become the cry babies of failed policies.
They are the new conspiracy theorists and they see Democrats behind a plot to give real freedom back to America. This scares them [...]

CRAZY

by Tnut

“We turned the switch, saw the flashes, watched for ten minutes, then switched everything off and went home. That night I knew the world was headed for sorrow.”
Leo Szilard. (Physicist)
I am afraid that this may be just a figment of a fools overactive imagination, but the prescience of my thoughts all lead to my possibly [...]

The Rapid Repeat of History

by Tnut

It must be bleak at the White House these days.
With the ghosts of Nixon re-haunting the halls, it must be very daunting.
Besieged by the victims of their failures, this administration is probably knee deep in shredded memos, as a Nixonesque President speaks to America with his fingers crossed behind his back.
Buying a time horizon for [...]

VAST HORIZONS

by Tnut

“The only reason for time is so that everything doesn’t happen at once.” Albert Einstein
Just when you thought you had heard it all, the nincompoops of the Bush administration, the ones that brought you “enhanced interrogation”, “Patriot Act”, and “deep water drilling”, and now we are being offered the “Time Horizon”.
A word hair-ball, being coughed [...]
