Enough! It's time to focus.
Author: Raine
Date: 09/15/2008 05:58:44
It's been more than 2 weeks since we all had the pleasure to learn about Sarah Palin. I include myself in this, regarding what I am going to say next. ENOUGH. 2 weeks is enough. I get it now. I hope you will too. She is exactly what John McCain wanted her to be. He wanted her to be the person to get your panties in a wad -- a wad so tight we forgot who OUR candidate is. John wanted you to focus on her, and not on Barack.
Speaking for myself, for 2 weeks, he succeeded. GOOD. Fine. I gotta give it to him. It was a great political play. But that is what it was, a play. Today, I am going to admit, I am over it. I had my 24/7 Sarah venting time. NOW and today is when we should realize that we have 7 weeks to go. Sarah is 2 weeks ago. It is time we all got back to focusing on the person who will be the next president of the United States of America. Remember Barack Obama? Think about it. 7 weeks. That is less than 2 months. 7 weekends. Less than 60 days. I just REALLY want for everyone to get that time frame into perspective. This is the home stretch.
From here on in, just to give fair warning, things are going to get dirty. REALLY nasty dirty. The 527's will be kicking in to high gear, the smearing is going to go full tilt. Our candidate, and his choice for VP are going to need EVERY one of us to be out there, passing the word along. We don't have any more time to bitch about Sarah. John McCain is the one running for president alongside Barack. These are the people running. Sarah never got a primary vote. She didn't campaign. She wasn't running to be president. She was nothing more than a political pick. This is not about Sarah.
THIS ELECTION IS ABOUT THE ISSUES. It is not about personality. Stop letting people tell you otherwise. We NEED to get back to issues. That was the Obama campaign all along... ISSUES. WE want to ELECT BARACK OBAMA!!! (we should not be worrying about defeating John & Sarah McCain ---oops... sorry)
So, I propose to everyone who is reading this blog today, that we get back to the things that really matter. Sarah Palin does not really matter. She may be a lightening rod, but in the end, if we keep working to get our message out, she will be nothing but a footnote in history. The things that matter to us are everything opposite of what Sarah Palin represents. It's pretty simple. That was not an accident. The sad little secret is that Sarah was chosen by John McCain to be nothing more than a symbol of EVERYTHING that liberals fight against. (not so maverick-like, eh? ) In other words, he is using her. She might be a woman, but she was played and objectified by John McCain for his own political ambition. When we spend so much time talking about her, and not our own candidate, we legitimatize this behavior. We really need to stop giving them that legitimacy. As a feminist in this party, I have decided to stop. Believe it or not, it degrades Sarah and just becuase she is too blind to see it doesn't mean I don't get it. I do. John MCCain is using a woman to get what he wants. I refuse to play that game. I will call her out for her politcal posturing, but I will no longer spend my time wringing my hands over a woman who somehow thinks that because she is a female she can call herself a feminist. She is not.
We are better than this. We are better than falling for this game. We have a spectacular candidate, we have a righteous platform, we have record numbers of people registering, we have record levels of fundraising. We have a perfect storm...
Do not forget that. Do not let Sarah distract you from those simple facts.
We are Democrats. WE need to get back doing everything we can to make sure we ELECT Barack and and stop wasting our time trying to defeat JohnPalin McCain, because we are right. We have the moral superiority --- we do. After 7 years, how can anyone feel like they have to play defense? We have a great offense! Have a little chutzpah! Let us do a quick review:
We have major banks going belly up, a housing meltdown, government takeover of Fannie and Freddie, record unemployment, depressed wages, millions in job losses, gasoline prices out of control, food prices skyrocketing, two wars with no end in sight, and massive deficits, all of this since 2000.
Was that the Democrats? NO. That was ALL under the rule of the Republican party. You can blame *ush, but John McCain voted with him 90% of the time. (95% in just the last year -- when Johnny bothered to show up to vote at all) This is the word we need to get out and spread to people. We do not have to get Barack Obama elected becuase of how bad Sarah is. The ISSUES are there. Forget Sarah... this is about Barack. We can do this!
YES. We Can.
It is high time for people to get back into that mode. NOW. We don't have a lot of time, and, this is basically the fourth quarter. We don't need the hail mary... we just need to keep playing the game. You see, we are still ahead, and we really do have a better team.
On a personal note, in a few days my sister will be giving birth --- and no matter what her politics are, mine want to make this a better world for that little boy. I believe that Barack Obama can help me do that. The stakes are that high.
:peace: and :heart:

I'm sure we'll hear a renewed chorus of DRILL BABY, DRILL today since Ike destroyed a number of oil platforms and pipelines. We need to drill all along the coast so ANY coastal storm will give them an excuse to raise prices. Even way up here in the NE, gas at one station jumped 20 cents this morning.
Lessee Faux spin the bankruptcy of Lehman Bros as a good thing.
REMAIN CALM! ALL IS WELL!

The failure of Lehman is not really the story - the signal from the Fed that the spicket is now off - THAT's the big story. They won't even guarantee buyout loans.
The thing is - economic crisis always trickles down -- prosperity rarely does. The only way that real economic reform will occur is if those in the "wealthy" class ALSO feel it.
The problem is - that since economic crisis trickles down -- the rest of us will feel it far more.

I agree with this post 100%. Palin has been discredited, and her approval ratings are sinking faster than cement dinghy.
WE chose Obama for a reason.

Hmmm... but wouldn't all those new oil wells be just as susceptible to hurricanes too?

Morning :hug:
1) New baby soon Yeeah! All health, happiness and good thoughts to Raine sis and baby!
2) Oil wells, not sure why I have this impression but aren't those oil wells supposed to be able to float from place to place? All they have to do is bring them back to where they were and hook them up again. Plus if they got loose in a Cat 2 like Ike why didn't they get loose during a Cat 3/4 like Katrina? I have to wonder. Or there's a chance I don't have the whole picture.

Over the weekend I was listening to my iPod when this song came up - (yes I know ABBA is the bane of everyone's exsistance but it's my guilty pleasue) - and I thought what a great song to do a mash up with or make a commercial or video out of - thing is I have no clue or program that I can do that with.... any takers?
Money Money Money lyrics
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money

Excellent Post Raine, my dear,
I think that the GOP (Giddy over Palin :P) have already over-played their hand, and I for one am all for us righteous Dems getting back down to the business of electing Senator Barack Obama as the next president of these United States. Happee Mondee everybody!
Thank you all again for all the b-day wishes. I blogged about my big Five-Oh over at my blog.

The problem is - that since economic crisis trickles down -- the rest of us will feel it far more.
indeed.

Morning all! ENOUGH is the buzz word of this election!! I am planning on signing up to be a poll worker. Cheating needs to be documented.
BTW, Velveeta's tip of the day: Don't come home from work and turn on a TV documentary on the History channel and think you'll just doze right off. The movie I found was called "102 Minutes". No narration, very little underscoring........... just screams, wails, sirens and sounds of horror from the WTC on 9/11.
:wacko:

Just said it was a "lock down" I'm guessing it had to do with getting out Obama/Biden stickers and stuff as opposed to just Obama. Or there are so many people asking for them supply is having a hard time keeping up with demand

Something for people to think about regarding those rape kits.
Most of them include the morning after pill to prevent conception. That pill is viewed by extreme right wingers like sarah Palin as contraception at the very least... but in many circles, it is akin to abortion, so if you think she was charging for them for the noble purpose of saving the taxpayers money, I would suggest to you that this was not really the case. This is another example of her extreme religious views being legislated onto women.

There was an exchange where they looked at Palin's family while the kids of supposedly "immoral" liberal parents aren't involved in these problems and seem to be more moral and more accomplished than the children of conservatives.
Hey, just look at the younger years of Geroge W. Bush and how the twins have grown up for more fine examples of conservative "family values".

I was offsite all morning at a conference...no internets.
Anyway, what'd I miss?
(there was an av-dork moment at the conference, one of the presenters was going on and on about "RTO". First correct answer wins coveted blog bonus points.)
And ladies...apparently it is all in your head. I learned today that we have one practice that specializes in "Neuro-gynecology"....whatever that is.

Hello, bloggers!!!
I hope that everyone is doing well. Sorry for getting here so late, but things have been busy here and weird. (Odd phone line problem last night. Had to call for service.)
Here is what I have for the Daily Headlines over at UNN now.
And for a much needed laugh, and to show that Palin is but a distraction, here is something from a Scottish software company: the Polar Palin game - where the bears strike back.

Here's the Dow:
11,120.82 -301.17 / -2.64%
But that's not the significant number, this is:
YTD%Change: -16.16%
Not there yet, but The Great Depression was triggered by 3 days of losses totalling 42% of market value, on Black Thursday (17%), Black Monday (13%) and capping things off with a final 12% on Black Tuesday. (1929)
That was only the beginning; the market had declined a whopping 89% by 1931...or as wiki succinctly puts it:

The market lost $14 billion in value that day, bringing the loss for the week to $30 billion, ten times more than the annual budget of the federal government, far more than the U.S. had spent in all of World War I.

Hey, I normally try to avoid Ed Shultz show, but sounds like he's broadcasting from Alaska. Some interesting things said about Palin. Not liked as much as we thought. One person commented that she ran as a Republican but against many of there policies, more of an Indie........... now, he says, she's one of the club.
I have to go so I'll miss it, but if you're listening to a repeat of a show, you might want to check him out.

RTO is "Rejected Takeoff" to your friendly av-dork.
It's "Return to office" in athena-speak...essentially a follow-up visit. I guess we couldn't call it an "F-U Visit".

That I don't understand. It was in the tank yesterday, how can the cost of already delivered gas go up?
It's like if you have oil heat. You buy 50 gallons at whatever price it is...it's in your tank. How can the price go up? Is your oil man going to bill you for the difference on oil you already own?

Today in Florida, McCAin had a rally and who warmed up the crowd for him? Jeb Bush. What I find interesting about that is this snippet of information from the article
With the Lehman Brothers news dominating headlines, McCain sought to offer himself up as a reformer who would not look to taxpayers for help, as has happened in other bailouts.
"We believe the time has come and gone that the taxpayers should be viewed as the solution of the problems that are not their making," McCain said. He did not offer specifics.
McCain got a warmup from Crist and former Gov. Jeb Bush, who got a rousing reception from the crowd.
"This is a perilous world," said Bush, a member of the Lehman Brothers board. "Much better to have someone who sits in the Oval Office that understands how the world is and doesn't coddle dictators and doesn't want to openly discuss anything, any time with our enemies."

It's time for "Who Said It?!" See if you can guess which celebrity said this, and no googling you cheaters!
I really cannot bite my tongue anymore when it comes to Sarah Palin. I find it quite interesting that a woman who now is running to be second in command of the United States, only four years ago had aspirations to be a television anchor, which is probably all she is qualified to be.
....
Is it a sin to be gay? Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?
....
Is our country so divided that the Republicans' best hope is a narrow-minded, media obsessed homophobe?

John McCain was in Wedding Crashers with Christopher Walken; Christopher Walken was in The Deer Hunter with Robert DeNiro; and Robert DeNiro was in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon.
Three is the best I could think of using only movies. If you add TeeVee - Walken was in a random (NOT Random™) episode of The Guiding Light with Kevin Bacon - so - two there.

All I have was that my old friend Giemma dumped him. She just wasn't that into him. I lost touch with her, guess she wasn't that into me!
John McCain was in Wedding Crashers with Christopher Walken; Christopher Walken was in Meet Joe Dirt with Fred Ward; Fred Ward was in Tremors with Kevin Bacon
Not shorter, but Tremors, not only the only Kevin Bacon movie I've ever seen, But Random's all time, will kill you if you bad mouth it, Favorite Movie of all time

:neener: I will not bad mouth tremors.
Kevin is in my opinion, on of the MOST underrated talents in Hollywood. I love him, depite Footloose. Watch *Murder in the First*
I love Kevin, I just feel bad that Giemma thought he was a sucky kisser.

John McCain was in Wedding Crashers with Christopher Walken; Christopher Walken was in The Deer Hunter with Robert DeNiro; and Robert DeNiro was in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon.
Three is the best I could think of using only movies. If you add TeeVee - Walken was in a random (NOT Random™) episode of The Guiding Light with Kevin Bacon - so - two there.
And Obama is the celebrity???
All I have was that my old friend Giemma dumped him. She just wasn't that into him. I lost touch with her, guess she wasn't that into me!

I got home a half-hour go. Had to stop at the supermarket after the get-together.
MSNBC is repeating Rachel at 11. Looks like they've dumped the weeknight doc block. I hope.
