McCain's Double Standard

Yes, I agreed when Sen. McCain criticized Sen. Obama for lack of experience. Now, McCain wastes the criticism by turning around and nominating soccer mom Gov. Sarah Palin to be his vice president. He must be kidding to do this.
She is under investigation for firing her brother-in-law, a state-trooper, who was going through a messy divorce with Palin's sister.
The choice of Gov. Palin has to be up there with the horrible choices of Sprio Agnew and Dan Quayle respectively for vice president.
Any woman voting for McCain because Hillary Clinton is not on the Democratic ticket should have their head examined. Hillary's views are about 100% contrary to Gov. Palin.

Karl Rove Does It Again- The Bigoted Stinker that he is

I'm not surprised. It has been reported that Karl Rove telephoned Sen. Joseph Lieberman and asked him to remove his name from consideration for being John McCain's V.P. choice.
Mr. Rove, you're nothing more than a bigot. Infact, you look just like a bigot. You probably belong in 1930s Germany.
By choosing Sen. Lieberman as his running mate, Sen. McCain would show that he is an open person. Naturally, he will probably name some safe choice, especially one who is anti-abortion.
What would the south do regarding Obama and Lieberman? A black person and a Jewish person might be too much for the bigots down there to swallow. Imagine a Biden-Lieberman debate? That would be absolutely fascinating. Unfortunately, it will not happen. If it did, we would all see that the bottom of the tickets are far superior to the people at the top. Dream on Mr. Greenspan. That's why I'm still and will always be so green.

Memory Lapses When Convenient

So, John McCain doesn't know how many homes he has and Mayor Bloomberg can't remember how he voted regarding term limits. Hope they're not getting into the Margaret Thatcher category.
You can be rest assured that the mayor voted for term limits. In this way, he could make it to City Hall even faster.

Lady Sings the Blues

Should Barack Obama lose in November, I don't want to hear Democrats blaming Hillary Clinton for his loss. Sen. Clinton has gone out of her way to be most conciliatory following her loss.
It is now up to Sen. Obama to give specifics as he attempts to become our nation's 44th president. Will the Obama-Biden ticket succeed? Only time shall tell.

Mexican Shiva

I cannot believe that a film has been made dealing with a Mexican Jewish family trying to observe Shiva. Shiva is the solemn procedure observed by Jewish people following the death of parents, brothers, sisters and children. This should not be made into a movie. Enough is enough already.

Let's Make it Harder

Yes, let's make it harder for New York City teachers find parking. Mayor Bloomberg, how about your staffers forfeiting their placards? They could also take the subway. What do you want? I know you want teachers to come late so that it will be easier next June to rate them unsatisfactory.
Where is Ms. Weingarten in the matter? Instead of arguing with the mayor, she takes her usual conciliatory 3rd grade-like tone. What else are you giving up Randi? How much more can teachers take? They're treated like dirt.

Testing 5 Year Olds

The brilliance of Joel Klein, N.Y.C. school's chancellor, never fails to amaze me. That is, his complete ignorance of educational matters. This is a great one. Klein and our mayor are adamant about testing 5 year olds. Why not test them while they're in mother's womb? Unfortunately, many of them are wild there already. Let kids be kids. Imagine, they'll give up finger-painting to prep for the exam.
Mr. Klein, after you leave the chancellor's position, please teacher in one of our many surr schools. You taught for 6 months in a Queens intermediate school prior to fleeing from the system.
