I'm on board Barracuda Babe. I'll foreswear all mainstream media through the election and will only watch Fox News if my withdrawals are really bad.
I'm going to send an email to all my friends to encourage them to sign on, too.
Great idea.

Troopergate? Give me a break gate....
Much ado about nothing. As far as I'm concerned if Sarah Palin erred it was in not going far enough. If my brother-in-law tasered my nephew he wouldn't be able to work. My sisters and I would have him in a circle of tasers and we'd show him what it's like. He'd still be running.
What kind of judgement does State Trooper Mike Wooten have? What kind of judgement does his boss, Commissioner of Public Safety Walter Monegan, have for not firing him or at least suspending him?
Yes, she should have fired the guy who wouldn't fire him. Bad judgement times ten on his part. Sarah would have been remiss if she had not wanted him to fire her ex-brother-in-law. Todd Palin wouldn't be a caring man if he hadn't tried to make it happen.
Sarah Palin's only problem is she's just not used to being sneaky and lying like those who are after her.
Trooper gate is clown gate. The Democrat hack clowns who are running this so-called investigation expect us to believe? to care? to swallow their gleeful openly stated partisan findings?
Sounds like a whole lot of jealousy of Todd Palin, Sarah Palin and those who stand up for what is right. These guys would fire their best friend if it would help their climb to power and they expect us to believe them when they point a finger at a Governor who clearly, even in their own write up, had the right to fire the guy (not the trooper) WITHOUT cause? Sounds like she had plenty of cause to me and it has nothing to do with what the idiot trooper did to his own son, or the threats he made to his in-laws life.
It's not going to stick to Sarah guys. Some October surprise.
The surprise is on you. The only people who are going to give this any credibility are the extreme left who love finding fault with good people because it makes them feel more virtuous. Emphasis on "feel".
I agree with my blogger friend at You Can Call Her Governor: "Yawn".
This isn't news, it's not even a distraction.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses...
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses... your homeless, your criminals... and we'll turn them into great Barack Obama voters!
ACORN is not alone, they have outreach projects like Project Vote. They're not alone in their subversion of our voting process, other Democratic and similarly biased groups are hitting the jails, the homeless shelters and under the bridges to find voters. If they can't find enough people to take over a precinct or district, they make them up.
I think the Republicans, the Green Party, the Libertarian Party and other non-Democratic groups need to band together to call for a massive review of all registered names. I'll contribute to the cause. We need to hire independent groups to take the lists and simply match them up against addresses. It shouldn't be that big a deal to run a comparison program in this age of computers.
Heck, take part of the money the government gave to ACORN and use it to clean up the voter rolls.
There needs to be a massive outcry of indignation from the public! We need to write to all of our elected officials, to our local County Commissions, City Councils, voter registration boards, election officials and the media saying we want it cleaned up and a complete review.

Sean Hannity - Obama Flip Flops
Said I was through for the day but just hafta share this 'n with you:
I agree - Send Sarah to Michigan!
I agree with the Go Sarah Palin blogger --- let's unleash Todd, Sarah and family on Michigan and see if we can't shock 'em all and take it.
I saw An American Carol yesterday, agree with Barracuda Babe, it's a must see.
Watch Sean Hannity tonight, he's going to show the true Obama.
The bailout is a Democratic plot to get Barack Obama elected and the American electorate just may be stupid enough to fall for it. I hope they won't hand our entire government over to the Democrats 'cause we need a true system of checks and balances.
That's it for me for the day.

Movie --- HYPE the Obama Effect
A movement is sweeping the nation. Frenzied crowds gather in every state. Young people chant and sing. Women swoon. The result is record voter turn out and a rare political enthusiasm. At the head of this unprecedented phenomenon stands a charismatic figure intent on becoming the President of the United States.
"I'm asking you to believe.""We are the ones we have been waiting for.""Yes, we can!""Change.""Hope."
These words, from Barack Obama, have inspired everything from outrageous videos to the largest campaign fundraising success in history. He has taken what was considered a sure bet Clinton machine and turned it on its head. His supporters claim he is the new Martin Luther King, Jr. He is hailed as this generation's John F. Kennedy. This documentary explores the HYPE behind Barack Obama.

A shout out to Ohio Republicans!
Wow, this is turning out to be a nasty situation in Ohio. Now I'm hearing that the state isn't going to allow independent observers at the polls or something to that affect (effect? always get mixed up on those two ;-).
I'm going to assume you've all heard about the controversy with the absentee ballots, how they're allowing people to register and vote at the same time. Talk about an opportunity for cheating! There should be a waiting period so they can check out the identification and validity of residency and other issues.
I have a feeling Ohio is going to be Florida revisited.
I've heard they're taking the homeless and dragging them down to register and vote.
I'm going to take a look to see what's going on with the state excluding poll watchers. I don't even think they can legally do that.
Barack Obama's ties with ACORN scares the heck out of me. You know they're out working hard to steal votes.
I've included just a FEW of the zillions of hits on voter fraud and ACORN. This is one nasty group and Barack Obama is attached at the hip with this group. They're out to steal our country. People better not be asleep at the wheel 'cause the masses are voting as I type.
Help get out the legitimate vote! Make sure everyone you know votes, help friends vote absentee, do whatever you can to get honest voters to the polls!!!

Courts Allow Same-Day Vote Window to Go Forward in Ohio

The one-stop voting, which will end Oct. 6, had become a heated partisan issue in the battleground state, with Republicans disputing a legal interpretation by Democratic Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner

Inside Obama’s AcornBy their fruits ye shall know them.
By Stanley Kurtz
What if Barack Obama’s most important radical connection has been hiding in plain sight all along? Obama has had an intimate and long-term association with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (Acorn), the largest radical group in America. If I told you Obama had close ties with MoveOn.org or Code Pink, you’d know what I was talking about. Acorn is at least as radical as these better-known groups, arguably more so. Yet because Acorn works locally, in carefully selected urban areas, its national profile is lower. Acorn likes it that way. And so, I’d wager, does Barack Obama.

More ACORN Vote Fraud Attempts
Posted on September 15, 2008
-By Warner Todd Huston
The union supporting, Democratic Party pushing, extreme leftist Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) has been caught trying to jerry-rig voter applications in Michigan. It is looking like fraud on a massive scale in Detroit as ACORN tries to fill the Democrat voter rolls with fake Democrat voters.

Alaska's Political Circus / Web ad
Today, at a Palin Truth Squad Press Conference in Alaska, the McCain-Palin campaign announced the release of its latest web ad, entitled "Alaska's Political Circus." The ad chronicles the antics of Obama partisans that have transformed a previously nonpolitical inquiry into a political circus designed to undermine Governor Palin.
The web ad can be viewed at the Palin Truth Squad's new website: www.PalinTruthFiles.com. PalinTruthFiles.com is a resource for voters to arm themselves with the true facts of this tainted inquiry.
Script For "Alaska's Political Circus" (Web 1:20)
ANNCR: In Alaska. The circus has come to town.
When Gov. Sarah Palin dismissed Walter Monegan over insubordination regarding his budget, blogger conspiracy theories started to fly and an investigation ensued.
Meet Sen. Hollis French. An Obama supporter.
He moved the investigation deadline to the middle of the presidential campaign, saying it could lead to an October surprise.
Meet Sen. Kim Elton. An Obama donor who continues to ignore the calls of his own committee members to reconsider whether the investigation is legitimate.
And then there's Steve Branchflower. Appointed as a QUOTE independent investigator by Elton. Branchflower and French were recently exposed for colluding on the issuing of subpoenas.
So why are they even investigating Gov. Palin? Conspiracy theorists say it's because Monegan was dismissed because he wouldn't fire Trooper Michael Wooten.
Even after Wooten was cited for tasering his 10-year-old stepson.
Secrecy, collusion, and October surprises. It's nothing more than a three-ring circus emceed by Obama partisans.

Governor Sarah Palin On The Hugh Hewitt Show
(She talks like I think! It is SO great to have someone like her running for office. We just have to get her elected.)
"It's time that normal Joe six-pack American is finally represented in the position of vice presidency, and I think that that's kind of taken some people off guard, and they're out of sorts, and they're ticked off about it, but it's motivation for John McCain and I to work that much harder to make sure that our ticket is victorious, and we put government back on the side of the people of Joe six-pack like me, and we start doing those things that are expected of our government, and we get rid of corruption, and we commit to the reform that is not only desired, but is deserved by Americans." -- Governor Sarah Palin

Hugh Hewitt Show"
September 30, 2008
Hugh Hewitt: Governor, your candidacy has ignited extreme hostility, even some hatred on the left and in some parts of the media. Are you surprised? And what do you attribute this reaction to?
Palin: Oh, I think they're just not used to someone coming in from the outside saying you know what? It's time that normal Joe six-pack American is finally represented in the position of vice presidency, and I think that that's kind of taken some people off guard, and they're out of sorts, and they're ticked off about it, but it's motivation for John McCain and I to work that much harder to make sure that our ticket is victorious, and we put government back on the side of the people of Joe six-pack like me, and we start doing those things that are expected of our government, and we get rid of corruption, and we commit to the reform that is not only desired, but is deserved by Americans....
Hewitt: Governor, let's close with some foreign affairs. It is reported that you had an Israeli flag in your governor's office. You wore an Israeli flag pin occasionally. One, is that true? And two, why your support for Israel?
Palin: Well, it is true, and I ran into Shimon Peres recently at a meeting, and he even pointed that out. He said I saw a picture of you on the internet, and you had an Israeli flag in your state government office, and I said I sure do. You know, my heart is with you. And all of those trials and tribulations throughout history that Israel has gone through, not only does that allow me to want to support that country, but Israel is our strongest and most important ally in the Middle East. And they are a democratic country who I believe deserves our support, and I know that John McCain believes as I do that Israel is our friend, and we need to be there to support them. They are there for us, and I do love that country.
Hewitt: Last question, Governor. Have you and Todd heard from your son? And how is it on your nerves having your son deployed?
Palin: That little stinker, I guess he's called his girlfriend a couple of times, but can you believe he hasn't called his momma yet? He's over there. They were just leaving Kuwait heading into Iraq, and I am just so extremely proud of Track, my son, and all of the men and women, of course, serving in the military. I'm proud that my son made this independent and very wise decision as such a young man at 18, deciding you know, he realized there's something he can do to help, to contribute, to help protect our nation, and I couldn't be more proud of him and all those who choose to serve in our military. They're serving for the right reasons. God bless them, God love them.
Hewitt: Governor Sarah Palin, look forward to talking to you again, good luck on Thursday night.
Palin: Thank you so much. Talk to you soon.

John McCain: Inactaction is Not An Option
My Friends,
We are in the greatest financial crisis of our lifetimes. Congressional inaction has put every American and the entire economy at the gravest risk. Yesterday the country and the world looked to Washington for leadership, and Congress once again came up empty-handed.
I am disappointed at the lack of resolve and bipartisan good will among members of both parties to fix this problem. Bipartisanship is a tough thing; never more so when you're trying to take necessary but publicly unpopular action. But inaction is not an option.
If we do nothing, many businesses may fail.
Sonic Corporation, a drive-in restaurant chain based in Oklahoma, learned on Thursday that one of its lenders, GE Capital, had stopped extending new loans to the chain's franchisees. That will block plans to rebuild restaurants, add equipment and open new locations.
When financing dries up, students can't get loans. In Wisconsin, more than 100 Milwaukee Area Technical College students couldn't access private loans to fund their education. Fortunately the school was able to come up with emergency loans, but this temporary arrangement cannot continue. Markets need to work so that people can get financial help and students can be educated. Again, inaction is not an option.
In light of the House's failure to act, this morning, I spoke to the President about two things that the administration has not done, but should do following the inaction of Congress.
First, the Treasury has already used its Exchange Stabilization Fund to back money market accounts. I encourage it to use it this fund as creatively as possible to provide backstop for accounts across our financial system to maintain confidence on the part of savers and investors.
And second, the recent housing bill gave the government nearly $1 trillion in authority to purchase mortgages. Housing and mortgages are at the root of this crisis. The Administration can take these actions with the stroke of the pen to help alleviate the crisis gripping our economy. I urge them to do so.
The FDIC should quickly be granted the authority to increase the deposit insurance cap from $100,000 to $250,000 so that families do not have to worry about their money. We cannot allow a crisis in our financial system to become a crisis in confidence.
I call on everyone in Washington to come together in a bipartisan way to address this crisis. I know that many of the solutions to this problem may be unpopular, but the dire consequences of inaction will be far more damaging to the economic security of American families and the fault will be all ours. And to my supporters, I assure you I will continue to do whatever I can to aid in a constructive answer to the challenge before us.
Sincerely,
John McCain
P.S. I'm asking you to pass this email along to your friends, family, neighbors and colleagues. We must spread the word that inaction is not an option.
