Think the Republicans use a lot of retreads? I read somewhere that in November 2008 in Texas was the first time in 28 years that there was no one named Bush on the ballot or sitting as president, vice president or governor. Actually George W. Bush was sitting as president for a few more months at the time.
A good quote on Barack the Media Heartthrob Obama on MichaelMBates.com 2-14-08:
“His lack of substance has transformed him into today’s John F. Kennedy, another empty suit who realized you don’t have to fool all the people all the time, just half of the voters plus one.”
Mike M. Bates
Mike Bates also writes for MichNews.com - a great writer. He lives in suburban Chicago and knows corrupt Chicago politicians well.
“I’m not going to tell you how to vote, but don’t buy the conventional wisdom. It will drag the party into the sewer.”
Laura Ingraham
Dan Magill, a great fellow and a fount of sports knowledge at age 89, writes good columns for the Athens, Ga. newspaper (onlineathens.com). He says the old style rounder football was changed to the present “oblate spheroid shape” in 1931. Remember those old pictures of pumpkin shaped footballs?
“I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Party has adopted our platform.”
Norman Thomas 1944
Norman Thomas ran for U.S. president six times on the Socialist Party of America ticket. His grandson Evan Thomas is an editor of News “Weak” magazine. Does that tell you something about the political philosophy of that magazine?
“In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress.”

Writer-commentator Charles Krauthammer says the myth of 2008 was destroyed in the recent elections of November 2009.
“November ‘08 was one-shot, one-time, never to be replicated. Nor was November ‘09 a realignment. It was a return to the norm - and definitive confirmation that 2008 was one of the great flukes in American political history.”
“The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.”
Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood
Ross Perot, hyped as a “conservative” is a big supporter of Planned Parenthood.
“Liberals are not bright people. That’s why they are liberals. They believe the obvious lies or are too stupid to know the difference.”
