What’s left of my state is beaming with pride that one of our own has been chosen to misrepresent the GOP nominee during Joe Biden’s debate practice:
LANSING, Mich. – Democrat Joe Biden has tapped Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm to be the stand-in for Sarah Palin as he prepares for next month’s vice presidential debate.
Brilliant choice! [...]

Cue the IACLU! (Illegal Alien Civil Liberties Union):
TALLAHASSEE — State elections officials will resume enforcement of a controversial state law that requires Floridians to have their identification match up with a state or federal database in order to register to vote.
The fact that this is “controversial” highlights the entire problem with the country.
Just imagine [...]

Here’s some Hump-Day hilarity…
Joe Biden was on the campaign trail and asked a man in a wheelchair to “stand up” — until he realized the situation.
Obviously Senator Biden forgot that John Kerry didn’t win the ‘04 election, so the man remained seated:

I’ve been blogging at MND for a couple of years. When I started, I was using the handle “Brunette Republican Sex Kitten”, and the admin who invited me knew this. I’ve been using it since.
I attracted a lot of vitriol by pointing out that Sarah Palin is a bad mother and that the GOP shouldn’t [...]

Jackie and Dunlap from Red State Update have some exclusive video outtakes from George Stephono… Stephounop… George S’s interview with Barack Obama on the “This Week” program regarding the “My Muslim faith” comment.
Let this be a lesson to always get the full context of somebody’s comments before accusing them of being a Christia… I mean [...]

A BBC poll found that the world wants Barack Obama to be president.
Barack has 82% support in Kenya! (this number has a margin of error of plus or minus Obama’s brother)
What the world may not know is that John McCain is a global warming Kool-Aid drinker, so no matter who gets elected, they’ll probably end [...]

She sang for Al Gore; she sang for John Kerry; she sang for Hillary Clinton; and now she’ll sing for Barack Obama:
Singer-actress Barbra Streisand, who originally endorsed Hillary Clinton in the U.S. presidential primary race, has jumped on Barack Obama’s bandwagon with both feet to sing for the newly anointed Democratic nominee at a Beverly [...]

The Council for American Islamic Relations has been trying in vain to stop a counter- terrorism program in Sarasota Florida, aimed at providing first responders with information on subjects such as building safety, suicide terrorism, technologies against terrorism and more. This [...]

The Large Hadron Collider, a 17-mile long particle accellerator near Geneva, Switzerland, will be switched on in a few days. Here’s what it’s designed to do:
The device is designed to replicate conditions that existed just a fraction of a second after the **Big Bang, and its creators hope it will unlock the secrets of how [...]

Gay Patriot (yes, there are gay Republicans!) has this reasonably short video of a young veteran telling why he supports McCain over Obama, and I thought it was powerful and well stated:

Note: This column is probably going to make all of my friends mad at me again. I’m sorry about that, but someone needs to say these things.

At least I’ve learned something from McCain’s choice of running mate. Mainly that I didn’t know my party as well as I thought I did. First they nominated McCain, [...]

Today’s column at WorldNetDaily is basically a thank-you note to Sarah Palin, John McCain and the mainstream media for helping provide conservatives with the first genuine good time we’ve had in well over a decade.
Give a read to “Conservatism we can believe in” for more on the woman who shakes things up so well that [...]

It’s tough to get lower than this. At least they’re discussing something they know a lot about: Mental handicaps. Trig Palin will obviously be loved more by his parents than this insipid douche ever was — hence the bitterness and jealousy directed toward higher quality human beings.

Men’s Righters should enjoy INFERNO 74 which concerns Sarah Palin and feminist orcs.

The cleaning crews hadn’t even started their work in St. Paul following the end of the Republican Convention, when the knee-jerk leftists at Amnesty International released their statement accusing police officers of using excessive force against the misfits and miscreants creating havoc outside of the convention center.
Amnesty International is concerned about “allegations of excessive use of force and [...]

Yesterday, John McCain and Sarah Palin were here in Michigan and drew an overflow crowd exceeding 10,000. I understand though that a few dozen of those included people fleeing Detroit who got caught up in the moment. The more the merrier.
Check out the reception several thousand people gave Sarah Palin in Colorado Springs. Reactions like [...]

Chuck Canterbury, National President of the Fraternal Order of Police, today announced the organization’s endorsement of Senator John S. McCain III for the office of President.
 
“The FOP carefully considered the records and the responses of both candidates and, in our evaluation, Senator McCain will provide greater leadership for our country and for our nation’s law [...]

The “Hitler” stuff continues to follow Palin around. Hey, at least this is taking some of the heat off Bush.
The newest lie is that, in 1996, Palin “ordered” the Wasilla Public Library to ban a bunch of books. The real funny part? Many of the books Palin supposedly tried to have removed from libraries in [...]

There’s pretty much nothing sadder than a really old person spouting new-age pablum, as evidenced by Shirley MacLaine, who spoke at AARP’s 50th’s anniversary party in Washington, DC. That’s right, AARP’s now old enough to join AARP.
So, Shirley, what do we do about “terrorism”? Just relax and let ‘em terrorize, because they might be trying [...]

It took longer than I expected for somebody to hit Sarah Palin with a Nazi comparison, but it finally happened. Frankly I’m a little disappointed that it took so long. The left is getting lazy — but fighting make-believe Nazis takes a lot out of you.
Perpetual idiot with the dreadlocked synapses Whoopi Goldberg is one [...]

Last week a friend stayed with me, and while she was here, a cut on her leg became infected, so I drove her to a nearby clinic. I saw a troubling slice of life while waiting in the lobby. The door to the examination rooms opened and I looked up from my book to see [...]

Boy, you just can’t win. The left always says that Republicans have no heart, so when McCain and Palin try to get heart, they receive a cease and desist order.
From TMZ:
Ann and Nancy Wilson are pissed at the Republican Party and have fired off a cease and desist letter to the McCain/Palin campaign.
Specifically, the Heart [...]

A while back, I signed up for email updates from the Obama campaign. Yes, I’m that ill.
Here’s what ended up in my email box last night from Barack Obama just prior to McCain’s acceptance speech, obviously in response to Sarah Palin’s speech the previous night:
Why would the Republicans spend a whole night of their convention [...]

Part of it seems to be (and not just on the part of women) that some people look at politics like they look at sports. People mostly cheer for a team just because it’s from their state or their alma mater, regardless of its actual qualities or the character of its members. In sports, this [...]

More than 900 criminal aliens, immigration fugitives, and immigration violators have been removed from the United States or are facing deportation today following a three-week enforcement surge by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Fugitive Operations Teams in California.
During the special operation, which concluded late yesterday, ICE officers located and arrested a total of 905 [...]

The Reverend Jesse Jackson was admitted to a Chicago hospital last night after complaining of severe stomach palins… er, I mean pains.
Fortunately though he’s feeling better, and doctors expect him to be up and extorting in no time.
I’m sure that Jesse’s stomach pains happened during the wildly successful Republican veep speech that created more incontinent [...]

French workers are in a daze! The government mandated 35-hour work week in France has been scrapped.
People having lots of free time and tons of vacation days proved to be tough on the economy — go figure.
France originally limited the work week to 35 hours in an attempt to lower the unemployment rate. The [...]

Speaking Wednesday evening leading up to the Palin speech, Mike Huckabee had one of the memorable lines of the week: “I’m tired of hearing about her (Palin’s) lack of experience. I want to tell you something — Sarah Palin got more votes running for Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska than Joe Biden got running for President [...]

It’s 9:39 p.m. and Mike Huckabee is speaking right now, and so far has one of the memorable lines of the week: “I’m tired of hearing about her (Palin’s) lack of experience. I want to tell you something — Sarah Palin got more votes running for Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska than Joe Biden got running [...]

(The following report is based on material obtained by the National Association of Chiefs of Police.)
 
A 23-year-old Michigan man was charged last week in federal court for illegally possessing Molotov cocktails, which he allegedly intended to use at the Republican National Convention.
 
Matthew Bradley DePalma, Flint, Mich., was charged Aug. 30 with one count of possession [...]
