Suspension of Disbelief

So I poured something onto my computer and now it's iffy at best... I've got some things in mind for posts, but I am trying to lock down a bunch of issues right now. Hopefully, I don't need a new computer. FFF

"It's A Hard Life" by Queen I don't want my freedom There's no reason for living with a broken heart This is a tricky situation I've only got myself to blame It's just a simple fact of life It can happen to anyone You win - you lose It's a chance you have to take with love Oh yeah - I fell in love And now you say it's over and I'm falling apart It's a hard life To be true lovers together To love and live forever in each others hearts It's a long hard fight To learn to care for each other To trust in one another right from the start When you're in love I try to mend the broken pieces I try to fight back the tears They say it's just a state of mind But it happens to everyone How it hurts - deep inside When your love has cut you down to size Life is tough - on your own Now I'm waiting for something to fall from the skies And I'm waiting for love Yes it's a hard life Two lovers together To love and live forever in each o...

Less than an hour before the latest McShame speech, someone visited this site from where he was speaking, Virginia Beach. Coincidence, probably. But it is certainly ironic. Click on the photo capture for a clearer image. FFF

John McCain spoke this morning trying to settle his campaign down. He said nothing new and insisted it was new. He said that "yes we will" as Hillary said in that embarrassing pre-loss move. I almost died laughing. They say that we have to have "hope" and that "yes" we will do this and that. "Yes, yes, yes." Sounds sort of like "yes we can." It sounds like McCain is trying to latch onto the wave of Obama's support and in doing so using tired old tactics of "fear, fear, fear" and now a new stupidity "mine baby mine". Yet again I have to laugh. Yet again he claims to be able to fix everything but cannot figure out where the money is coming from. Lower taxes, but give all sorts of money for education and healtcare, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and this new Main St. bailout that he promised even as he abused Obama for suggesting the same thing (that extra 1 trillion dollars comment). John McCain proves...

Throughout the years I've spoken on a vast number of issues. Political issues, social issues, economic issues, and just plain people with issues (like myself some have said). But I want to set the record correct here and now. What I say on a given topic is not the end all and be all of my belief on that subject. Many times I'm simply being facetious. Other times I am poking fun or pointing something out. Still other times my opinion will change. It happens. Flipping and potentially flopping back to the original is not a sign of weakness, it's the sign of an open mind and an accepting mindset. More so, I usually don't spend too much time on a single article, although there are some exceptions. And I don't go back to see what I previously said on something to make sure that nothing I say contradicts something I am going to say. Modesty aside, that would take forever. So, the best thing to do would be to trust my most recent words on a particular topic (if n...

I felt it necessary to share a gem describing Sean Hannity . It was written by John Cleese and read last night by Keith Olbermann on Countdown. Enjoy. "An Ode to Sean Hannity " by John Cleese Aping urbanity Oozing with vanity Plump as a manatee Faking humanity Journalistic calamity Intellectual inanity Fox Noise insanity You're a profanity Hannity .

What is the McCain Campaign to do when all else fails? Lie. Lie out of their asses. Lie and say that they're not lying. Lie and say that Barack Obama is lying. Lie and say that they never lied even if it's on film. Lie about lying. Lie about lying about lying. Just plain lie. The John McCain Campaign has moved into desperate mode. Now that most major polls have McCain well below Obama in their surveys, they've decided to pull out all the stops. And, instead of sticking to their proverbial guns and staying the course in their campaign for the White House, they've dug deeper into the Rovian handbook. Lie. Distort the truth. No. That hasn't worked. Don't mix up numbers and fool with wordplay making what you say technically true by intently inaccurate. No, that hasn't worked. Push it one step further. Just lie. Call Obama a terrorist. Tell him that he wants to raise taxes for the middle and lower classes. Tell him that he waffles on the economy. ...
