I’m the type of person who worries a lot. If I have nothing to worry about, I assure you I will think of something to worry about. My worries are primarily comprised of rare happenings like terrorist attacks, plane crashes, car seat problems, medical mishaps, child abductions, exploding cell phones, re-useable plastic bottles — you [...]

Hmmm, Obama is supposedly the elitist but John and Cindy McCain have hundreds of thousands of dollars in credit card debt. One of their children has $10-50k in credit card debt. These people truly have nothing in common with everyday Americans and are clearly not financially responsible.
In an interesting peek into John McCain’s personal finances, [...]

Authorities think the vandalism to about 60 vehicles, estimated at $10,000 in damage, was done Saturday afternoon, police spokeswoman Sgt. Barbara Jones said.
The vehicles were parked across from City Hall and [...]

Remember 4 years ago when all the networks played over and over the video of Howard Dean after the Iowa caucus. His wheeee replayed hundreds of times over several days probably had a lot to do with his poor showings in the primaries.
Yet John McCain acts like a crazy man and no one is replaying [...]

Whoever takes the presidency in November will have difficulty finding a solution to the mess of Iraq. Though perhaps one individual may be worse than the others, Obama, McCain and Clinton are doomed to failure because this administration never considered part two of playing war.
In reference to the prisoners being held at Guantanamo Bay here’s [...]

In his own words, John McCain tells us what his judicial philosophy is. I am struck with how the current president and John McCain really do speak in code. He never uses the word abortion yet there is no doubt that the primary purpose of this speech is to ensure that he will appoint the [...]

I realize that I often sound naive and idealistic, but I’m not as disturbed by McCain’s association with a former lobbyist for Myanmar as I am that in the United States there exist lobbyists for Myanmar. How do these people sleep at night working with a regime that does (don’t click if you are sensitive) [...]

Can there be anything more flagrant than offering to suspend the gas tax for the purpose of getting elected president of the United States?
Sens. Hillary Clinton and John McCain are pushing for a gas-tax holiday, but Sen. Barack Obama says the plan is a quick fix that would do more harm than good.
McCain, the presumptive [...]

Remaining significant is a difficult task for any public leader. The James Dobsons and the Pat Robertsons only have so much power as the number of people they can convince the rest of us they have influence over. It should come as no surprise that some leaders, and even Christian leaders, are charlatans extorting their [...]

If the polls are correct and Americans
Think the country is on the wrong track
Think going to war in Iraq was a mistake
Think we should leave Iraq
then I can’t see this man winning. With the exception of being a slightly better public speaker than George Bush, I ask you what does he say in this clip [...]

Over the past seven years, I have been comforted by the fact that there never will be another George W. Bush. At least not for a while.
We humans tend to like things we consider original and shun things that are a knock-off. Once a trend becomes ubiquitous, we no longer want to be associated with [...]

When was the last time a presidential candidate wrote his/her own op-ed piece detailing their opinion on an issue? I really don’t know the answer, but the fact that Obama has written this piece detailing under what circumstances he would accept public funding is highly admirable. It shows he feels accountable to the people for [...]

So the recount results for the Washington State caucus are in and McCain has once again been declared the winner over Huckabee. The consensus is from state party officials that the delegates don’t matter anyway. I’m having a hard time following their logic.
Esser said four counties — Snohomish, Benton, Grant and Jefferson — had given [...]

This man?
Or this one?
The cannibalism has already started with Bush, Rove, Rush, Coulter and Fox News all blaming the Republican Party’s inevitable demise on John McCain. Just turn on Fox news and you’ll see the blame game start. Do they think we’re idiots? Bush’s approval ratings for the last two years, the 2006 election [...]

First he says his sons are serving their country by volunteering in his campaign and now this!?!
Mitt Romney suspended his bid for the Republican presidential nomination Thursday, saying if he continued it would “forestall the launch of a national campaign and be making it easier for Senator Clinton or Obama to win.”
“In this time of [...]

John McCain, whose Super Tuesday performance has given him an aura of inevitability in the eyes of many Republican leaders, has begun an aggressive campaign to quell conservative dissent and prevent an outbreak of GOP buyer’s remorse.
The campaign, as described by Republican sources, has two pillars: outreach to talk-radio hosts and other conservative critics [...]

I think John McCain is realizing that right now that he would have done better to ignore evangelicals since nothing he has done seems to satisfy them anyway. Here’s James Dobson today:
“I’m deeply disappointed the Republican Party seems poised to select a nominee who did not support a Constitutional amendment to protect the institution of [...]
