Last week the AP and Yahoo released statistics of a survey they conducted amongst over 2,000 white people. The pollsters stated positive and negative adjectives about black people and asked people to respond accordingly. 20% of all the white people polled said the word “violent” strongly applied to black people. Not good news for Barack Obama-the militant black candidate in the eyes of many white people, this despite Obama being half white of course.

Here is John McCain’s latest TV ad basically telling people that Barack Obama is a Chicago thug and that’s not change you can believe in.

Wow, this whole not talking about actual issues in the presidential race has even trickled down to Ralph Nader. Here is Nader spending 2:30 minutes complaining to his bird “Cardozo” about why his latest presidential bid isn’t getting enough media coverage. His possible solution, which he mutters along with other psycho drivel is that perhaps he should dress up as a panda.

Please pass this video along so that “Cardozo” can become the next presidential celebrity. On a side note, why the fuck is this guy running for president again?

Anyways, in uncertain times like these I look to the rock of financial stability, the bookies. While McCain might have a slight edge in the polls, he still does not with the dudes who set football spreads. He has closed the gap however. A few weeks back I checked out my trusty sportsbetting.com and the money was still reasonably with Obama, at 1-2, with McNuggets at 3-2.

But just now I checked again and not surprisingly the gap has closed. Obama has slipped to 2-3 and McNasty has closed to 11-10. So Vegas has spoken and Obama is still the favorite! (Though not really).

Also, in no way do I endorse gambling ones fortune on sporting events, but consider putting your 401k on the San Fransisco 49ers this week at (-4) against the Detroit Lions. This is a lock because no NFL team (aside from the Rams, Chiefs, Raiders and Dolphins), playing at home, should be favored by less than 10 points against the Lions.

So here’s a bunch of potshots fired by various loose cannons at all and sundry, starting with an imaginative listen at what might have ended up on John Kerry’s answering machine at the beginning of the year.

Don’t miss the links to various insulting images below the video. Viewers beware: no one who is capable of being offended by anything should look at this stuff.

That fuc*in Obama!

Sometimes black people can’t dance.

And don’t forget Snobama.

Or unicorn-in-the-background-Obama.

And McCain shan’t escape drubbing either.

and of course there’s powdered wig McCain.

Another classic: the Klan McCain endorsement.

And of course the old Hillary Clinton Liagra endorsement.

And finally, Iracolypse Now!

This is serious though because MSNBC has become the counter to Fox News. Fox is obviously unfair and unbalanced and they are #1 on cable news because of it. The reason: Fox News doesn’t have to fight for an audience like CNN and MSNBC do. Those networks must share a largely left leaning audience while Fox gobbles up most of the right leaning audience.

I’ve written before on this site about how American news networks are almost equally to blame for the United States occupation of Iraq because they helped perpetuate the faulty logic that was involved in our invasion of Iraq. The media didn’t accurately report on the lack of intelligence the United States had while Hans Blix was still finding no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

The fact that NBC has caved to the demands of the right is shameful. Fortunately, Chris Matthews can still be seen on HardBall and Keith Olbermann can still be seen on Anchorman Countdown. It’s important that the voices of leading left leaning political pundits are not shut out, otherwise the road to Tehran could become an easier one for the potential McCain/Palin administration.

The republican platform for change said it all in who their keynote speaker was. Rudy ‘9/11′ Giuliani. A man who has profited off that horrific day with book sales and based his entire presidential bid on scaring Americans into voting for him.

Fortunately Giuliani’s scare tactics didn’t work for his own political gain, even with republicans. It seemed the more people saw of Giuliani the more they disliked him. That’s why he retreated to my old home state of Florida, camped out and ran outrageous fear mongering ads. Then managed to finish 3rd in that state, dropping out with a grand total of 0 delegates.

This tired old message by republicans didn’t work in 2006 and it didn’t work for Giuliani. And it shouldn’t work for the McCain/Palin ticket in the general election. It is not un-patriotic to not always stand on your governments side, quite the contrary. “Country First” means that you put your homeland, common sense and principles before your government.

The Nazi party rallied Germans around extreme nationalism, and they made them scared of the growing power of Jews in their communities. It was for these reasons that they were able to unite the majority of their people into unjustified wars and to commit horrific atrocities against humanity.

The neo-conservatives used these same tactics to take us into Iraq and they will do the same to take us into Iran. McCain used to be a “maverick” but he is clearly no maverick these days. If elected, he will continue the backward policies of Bush/Cheney that have led the USA into economic disaster and international embarrassment. So congratulations John McCain, tonight is your night to take the helm of the new American Nazi party.

His latest “gaffe” was this morning as he accidentally used the word battalion instead of brigade.

You have to be shitting me, having this on the front page during their convention, “attacking” the vice presidential nominee. All the while their presidential nominee isn’t even sure if he has his pants on or not.

Things sure are looking splendid for the GOP come November’s election with McNuts and Miss Separatist on their ticket. Thank god for the Biden gaffe ticker though!

In case you missed it last night here is President George-John “Insane in the Membrane” BuCain endorsing the real change, “country first” candidate. You know, the one that voted with itself 90% of the time.

Probably the best thing Bush could have done for McCain would have been to come out and endorse Barack Obama.

But notice how John McCain wasn’t at the convention last night when Bush was speaking and how we never see them together these days. Is it possible that they, in fact, really are the same person now!?!

The website says:

The 2008 Republican National Convention today announced the program of events for Tuesday, Sept. 2. The program will feature speeches by U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman and former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson. Their remarks will reflect the convention’s overall theme, “Country First,” and the theme for Tuesday’s events, which is “service.”

Then the site goes on to say:

Among the other speakers announced today are President George W. Bush (via satellite), First Lady Laura Bush, U.S. House Republican Leader John Boehner (Ohio), U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman (Minn.), and U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.).

It’s a fun night of headlining “aww shucks” politicians, followed by a discreet satellite appearance by the president of the United States, this monkey.

Here’s an interesting little video highlighting McCain’s wandering eyes while Sarah Palin was introducing herself to America. Nice touch with the fiddling of the wedding ring Johnie! Oh well, this isn’t the first time John McCain has used a former beauty queen to elevate himself to higher power.

McCain met his current wife Cindy at a cocktail party while married to his other former beauty queen (but then crippled) ex-wife Carol McCain. It only took one meeting with Cindy to realize that she was the gal of his dreams, one that could help make him a senator of Arizona. And it only took one meeting with Alaskan hockey mom Sarah Palin to realize that she could make him president.

It’s too bad they didn’t converse a little more though, perhaps McSame would have realized that the abstinence education supporting Palin has a pregnant 17 year old daughter. Luckily the kids are planning to get married, whether they like it or not.
