PRESS RELEASES:

9.05.08 - Statement by John McCain On Today's Jobs Report

"Sadly there are those who believe that to grow this economy we must raise taxes, impose costly new mandates and isolate America from the global economy. When our economy is hurting, the last thing we should do is raise taxes as Barack Obama plans to do and has done. The American people cannot afford a Barack Obama presidency." -- (John S. McCain)

ACTIVIST ALERTS:

Bill Maher Mocks Trig Palin
It looks like comedian Bill Maher thinks it's funny to make fun of Sarah Palin's child, Trig. As reported in Newsmax, during his monologue section of his most recent HBO show, Maher noted that Palin has five children including an infant "that has Down Syndrome. She had it when she was 43 years old. And it looks a lot like John Edwards."

Please let HBO and Maher know that mocking a special needs child is never acceptable, even when - or perhaps most especially when - that child's mother is running for office.

Following is the address of their parent company; Time Warner Inc., 1 Time Warner Center, New York, NY 10019-8016. If you are in New York you may wish to call instead. The local New York telephone number is 1-212-484-8000

3.) Predict who will win the US Presidential Race - by William Briggs - This is a special poll that we aren't asking you to "FReep" exactly... This is a more scientific survey being conducted at the wmbriggs.com website. Information about this survery was posted here at FReeRepublic.com by FReeper "MattStat".

When you have a chance, please log on to

http://wmbriggs.com/president.php

and guess who will win the election this year.
This poll closes on 11:50 pm 14 September 2008. No guessing will take place after that. I will post this story a few times over the next week to maximize visibility.
I am testing the ability of people to guess elections at a point where the amount of information known about each candidate is roughly the same. The site is completely anonymous.
Please do not try and stuff the ballot box by voting more than once. I will not release any results until after the election is over. (I will also remove duplicate records.)
