A new blog in support of Sarah Palin. Let's give him a hand getting started.

I know all the polls are almost in 100 percent agreement that momentum is clearly on McCain's side. I know Obama, Biden and Murtha have collectively insulted, alienated and discounted 85% of their crucial Pennsylvania voters over the past couple of weeks.

ACORN embezzler Dale Rathke (shown at left) enjoys the good life at the 18th Annual New Orleans Film Festival in 2007. Photo: www.newyorksocialdiary.com* * * * *We found a fun little photo (above) of Dale Rathke out on the two in New Orleans last year while his brother, ACORN founder Wade Rathke and senior ACORN officials such as national president Maude Hurd were busy covering up the close to $1 million that Dale stole from ACORN. Earlier this year the story about Dale stealing money from ACORN broke. He embezzled the money from ACORN in 2000 and the coverup lasted...

Your Priestly Pugilist is back! Please check out the redisigned blog and let me know what you think.

Can't get to several websites today. I recall the effort by the bots to shut down websites that were critical of Obama before. Is anyone else having this problem?

(Regarding Obama's alleged affair and removal of his FINANCE DIRECTOR being sent to Martinique one year ago - is there a money laundering scheme going on?) It also seems like a pretty good place for someone, oh, we don’t know who, to set up a multi-million dollar money laundering operation. In a Grisham novel, a young campaign Finance Director for a campaign heavily steeped in fraud would leave the States for someplace like Martinique, where she could set up an elaborate operation to channel foreign campaign contributions in the hundreds of millions into a money laundering operation that could conceiveably...

Please help me answer this person who is a paid Obama hack. I have made a pooint to answer most posts on our local papaer so this person does not have the only voice but have had trouble answering this one. Also kcross, I've asked you a number of times over the past few days to give us some examples of conservative republican successes over the past 7 years, and you ALWAYS avoid the answer. I'm sure someone of your ability to find information should be able to come up with one. Come kcross, give it up, give the McCain...

Having reached the point where I was going to uncrown Queen2, she finally got her s*** together and contributed to the “We” in WWAQ. You can find her contributions scattered throughout the entries. I do have to figure out some way to organize this better, so you don’t have to go back and search through for updates. Cleverly, though, when she was late for our movie date last night, she blamed it on me, for getting her lost in blogging. As though the second Queen ever needed an excuse for being late. At Q1 Palace, we have something called “The...

Rather stark for a US Senator who can afford a family compound, who has one son who has been enriched by having a Senator as a father, and by having the drop-dead gorgeous wife who happens to be a Doctor. This miserly amount is all he can give as charity? Despite income ranging from $210,432 - $321,379 over the ten-year period, the Bidens have given only $120 - $995 per year to charity, which amounts to 0.06% - 0.31% of their income. Don't so many on the left denigrate Americans as being cheap? Well, at least one Senator seems to...

I'm posting this thread for two reasons: To share my new blog with you (to get your suggestions and comments) and to give you a place to share your McCain blog or those you've seen on the net (so I can get more ideas for my own blog). Enjoy.

At Dennis Prager's blog, here on the Townhall website, under the entry, "Steinem: Palin Not A Real Woman" is a thread that, for me, perfectly illustrates how many people on the left conduct themselves when called to debate a given issue. Emotion takes the place of reason, feelings substitue for wisdom. Responding to an article by Gloria Steinem on his Thursday broadcast, Dennis Prager argued that the reason Steinem-bred feminists do not support Governor Sarah Palin is because she is a conservative. By any measure of accomplishment, Prager reasoned, Sarah Palin should be the aspiration of young feminists everywhere, but...

Environmentalism needs good villains. Rather than rely on the public’s ability to blame its own high-consuming tendencies, it’s nice if we can let them point to somsebody who’s trying to kill us all. Sarah Palin is just the thing. Sarah Palin I mean, look at her. That is the smile of the demonically possessed. More substantively, she is typical of Alaskan Republicans in that she’s a staunch ally of big oil. She supports drilling in ANWR, and generally comes down in favor of letting energy companies run pipelines wherever they want. They in turn have contributed generously to her campaigns....

In a sane world, Crystal Mangum's forthcoming memoir would contain just two words: "I'm sorry." Last Friday morning, I opened an email that contained a press release for a forthcoming book titled The Last Dance for Grace: The Crystal Mangum Story. Thinking it was an Internet hoax, I googled “Crystal Mangum” and found the story on WRAL.com. Sure enough, the infamous former stripper and prostitute, who falsely accused three Duke University lacrosse players of gang-raping and beating her in a bathroom, was writing her memoirs:....

It turns out that Joseph Biden is the poorest member of the Senate, is 65 years old and likely has a huge negative net-worth. His net-worth is listed as From $-302,980 to $277,997 by OpenSecrets.org. He keeps dozens of lines of credit, a new one opened every couple of years and together they add up to huge sums for a guy who has had a better paying job than most for basically his entire adult life.

So I was watching the "frammin' and bammin' and bangin'" of NASCAR Sprint Cup at Bristol, Tennessee. After a 10 car pileup the TV cameras were huddled outside the medical clinic awaiting the drivers' exit and getting the interviews. In the background of the TV shot there was a door to the medical clinic. On the door of the medical clinic I saw this logo: Being a political junkie I thought "WHAT THE F? Did some moonbat sneak a Obama logo onto the door of the medical clinic?" After closer look I see it is the logo of Wellmont Health...

Were There More? Did DBKP@Blogger's Shutdown Come from Same IPs? Click on image to enlarge. At least one of the attacks in the latest wave of blog shutdowns this past week came from IPs assigned to barackobama.com. We have reported twice in the last two weeks about the attacks on anti-Obama websites. ["Google, Blogger, Obama: Obamanation Shut Down My Blog!"]] & [BabbaZee's "Anti-Obama Blogs Shut Down by Google, Obamabots"] Speculation on who was behind the attacks has ranged from "Obama supporters" to "it's no one, just a glitch" "to "it's a browser problem".

Looking for new and innovative ways to spread the doom-and-gloom news associated with the economic downturn, BusinessWeek magazine launched a recession blog on its Web site back in May to give a personalized glimpse into "recession" hardships. "This blog is one of the places we'll tell these stories," BusinessWeek.com reporter Tim Catts wrote on the blog's first post on May 2. "Here, we'll jump into the conversation about where the economy is and where it's going. Yes, sometimes we'll look at the latest data. Sometimes we'll share observations from the road. The goal is to give readers real stories about...

Rapper Ludacris unveils a new track in support of Sen. Barack Obama for president. In the track, titled “Politics: Obama is Here”, Luda calls Hillary Clinton the B-word and challenges black voters to “get off your ass and vote!”

Blog Shut Down by 'Christian' Apologist's Threat Contact: Pastor Dustin Segers, Coalition of Concerned Bloggers, ChristianResearchNetwork.com, 336-848-7197 MEDIA ADVISORY, July 28 /Christian Newswire/ -- Pastor Dustin Segers submits the following and is available for comment: How safe are our blogs? That question was raised again when on the evening of July 26, 2008, a popular religious blog was shut down by an Internet service provider. A complaint filed by Christian author and apologist, Richard Abanes, claiming that one article on the religious opinion site, Apprising.org, had slandered him, caused the web host, IPower, to send its publisher, Ken Silva, a...

For two days last week, many of the men’s bathrooms at the Westin St. Francis Hotel here were turned into women’s bathrooms. The stalls on the second floor were lined with note cards featuring nurturing messages like “You are perfect.” Nearby, women were being dusted with blush and eye shadow, or having the kinks in their necks massaged. ... Other prominent female bloggers who did not attend the BlogHer conference agreed that there are unique challenges that women in the blogosphere face. “Women get dismissed in ways that men don’t,” said Megan McArdle, an associate editor at The Atlantic Monthly...
