Well, let's get on with the news. This has been a strange week. Sickness, Death and their gang have been out in full force. Who is to blame?
Job Opening: No Experience Necessary
I love this story. Newsweak had gone to great lengths on this one.
Are You Experienced?; By Alan Ehrenhalt; Jun 23, 2008; Newsweek
Prepare yourself for what's ahead of you in the coming months.
I'm not here to refute all of that: John McCain is 25 years older than Barack Obama, and he always will be. But here's something I bet you didn't know: If Obama becomes president, he will have spent more time serving as a state legislator (eight years) than anyone who has occupied the White House since Abraham Lincoln.
Sorta like "first-lady" experience. You ever look at his Illinois track record?
You're thinking that's kind of irrelevant. John McCain has been a member of the U.S. Senate since 1986; do I really mean to suggest that Obama's eight years in the Illinois Senate (not the most august deliberative body, as anyone who has seen it will attest) provide the same preparation for the presidency?
Yes, you are suggesting that very issue.
Twenty-first century U.S. senators are, virtually by the nature of the job, gadflies. They flit from one issue to another, generally developing little expertise on any of them; devote a large portion of their day to press conferences and other publicity opportunities; follow a daily schedule printed on a 3x5 card that a member of their staff has prepared; depend even more heavily on staff for detailed and time-consuming legislative negotiation that they are too busy to attend; and develop few close relationships with colleagues, nearly all of whom are as busy as they are.
There is another issue at play here. Barrack Hussein Obama has not been in the senate long enough to become a gadfly. Little over 2 years as a matter of fact and has spent 18 months of that time running for president. A wannabe gadfly makes a run for it with 8 years of Illinois state senate experience, doing what I ask? Organize communities for Chicago. Wow! Whoopie! What a resume!
Of course it's his fault....
As I posed the question above , who is to blame?
Lou Dobbs: Bush Should Be Impeached for Salmonella Outbreak; By Jeff Poor; Business & Media Institute;
6/20/2008
I really don't need to go any further than the headline, but I will.
The "Lou Dobbs Tonight" host placed the blame for the recent salmonella outbreak squarely on President George W. Bush, calling for his impeachment on the June 19 broadcast. Contaminated tomatoes from an unknown source or sources have sickened 383 people since April, according to the Associated Press.
Can you actually take this charge seriously?
"You know, I have heard a lot of reasons over the years as to why George W. Bush should be impeached," Dobbs said. "For them to leave the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in this state, its leadership in this sorry condition and to have no capacity apparently or will to protect the American consumer - that is alone to me sufficient reason to impeach a president who has made this agency possible and has ripped its guts out in its ability to protect the American consumer."
I will let you read this without comment. On its own you can see the absolute stupidity of the liberals at CNN.
He also implicated Bush in that tirade: "As for this administration, were a responsible president at the helm of this country, I would wonder why he is not taking action, but then again, this is of course his FDA and his legacy."
Next there will be impeachment calls for Bush for George Carlin's death as another liberal icon bit the dust. Really Eye, how can you say something so stupid? They blamed Tim Russert's heart attack on Bush, didn't they?
