So, my boyfriend Justin’s been avoiding a mysterious caller coming from the number (720) 582-8383 for the last week and this morning I told him to just take the call because it was most likely a political survey and I’d answer it for him.

I had an awful lot of fun taking this survey and telling the pollster how bad a job Rahm is doing…and was interested in the amount of emphasis that was given to Rahm’s dealings with...

Obama just wont debate Anywhere, Anytime.July 13th, 2008 Anytime, anywhere, just not yet. The below video is the smoking gun that proves Barack Obama is just too terrified to sit down and have a chat with his opponent, John McCain. Seems to many that perhaps he’s not as shiny without his teleprompter or having the questions in advance. Seems that he wants lots O conditions in place before any debate takes place. I guess he’ll be calling Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ahead of time to work out some conditions before they meet. Now that’s leadership people! To further quote this empty suit...
