I Remember 1964

When Sen. Barry Morris Goldwater ran for President in 1964, he criticized Lyndon Johnson for the moral decay in the U.S. under Democratic leadership. With his surrogates John Wayne, Raymond Massey and Irene Dunne, he harped away on this.
John Wayne had to be kidding. Did he not impregnate actress Gail Russell? When he refused to marry her, she killed herself. Massey and Dunne were from a bygone era. Their careers finished, they thought back of the days of mom and apple pie and all other sort of nonsense.
The Conservatives would be ready to kill the liberals if a daughter of the latter group found herself in trouble. It's just amazing how they now distort the situation to serve their own needs. The amazing thing is that there are plenty of right-wing wackos out there who will identify with this situation and agree with the Palins in general. Why wasn't Sarah for sex-education being taught in the schools? Perhaps, daughter Bristol and beau Levi Johnston wouldn't be in such a pickle now. Excuse me, Bristol shall soon or already be craving for pickles.
I object to the Conservatives with their holier than thou approach to life. Don't shove your attitudes on the rest of us.
Nothing like trying to keep yourself warm on a cold Alaskan night.

To Be Right Wing and Mishuga

Remember how we all worried that Sen. Obama would not be the best choice for our beloved eretz Yisroel? Isn't Sen. McCain supposed to be a firm supporter of eretz Yisroel? Did you know that Gov. Sarah Palin supported Pat Buchanan, the worst of anti-Semites, for president in 2000?
This Baked Alaska plays well to the far-right wackos. Hopefully, that's about it. Besides talking to these right-wing fanatical sickos, it will be Hush...Hush, Sour Sarah throughout the campaign.

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.
