Kerry Concedes

By ⋅ November 3, 2004 ⋅ 4 comments

Wow.  What a night.  I was up to 2:00 am EST waiting for NM or NV to go to Bush, but it didn’t happen last night.  In fact, I almost believed that we were going to go the litigation route with the provisional ballots– but Kerry is going to act statesmanly and concede at 2:00 [...]

Election Day

By ⋅ November 2, 2004 ⋅ One comment

So, who’s it going to be, Bush or Kerry.  After all of the campaigning, October surprises, debates, and everything it comes down to our votes.  Living in one of the states that appears to be a lock, it would be easy to not vote– and yet it’s our duty to let our voice be heard.  [...]

Bush vs. Kerry – Round 3

By ⋅ October 14, 2004 ⋅ 2 comments

I had watched every debate, including the VP debate, in totallity live up until this one.  Given the momentum in the debates, I figured Bush would consistantly do better, and since part of the strategy during the last campaign and this presidency was to co-opt democrat ideas so he could claim he got things done, [...]

Debates and things

By ⋅ October 5, 2004 ⋅ One comment

There are a lot of heartening articles out there.  My favorite is one from Dennis Prager.  Here’s the part I like the best: Here are direct quotes from John Kerry in the debate. On staying in Iraq: “I’m not talking about leaving. I’m talking about winning.” “Yes, we have to be steadfast and resolved, and [...]

Bush vs. Kerry

By ⋅ October 1, 2004 ⋅ 6 comments

Last night’s debate was long!  My wife left about two thirds of the way through for bed.  In my opinion, it was too long on Iraq without saying much!  The other thing that debates miss is fact checking during it.  What I would really like to see is a buzzer sound every time someone gets [...]

Voting on Election Day

By ⋅ September 23, 2004 ⋅ One comment

Bert Prelutsky has an article today about voting– something I’ve been thinking around for a while.  The Founders definitely wanted people with a stake in the game to be voting.  Now we’ve come so far as to herd people like cattle to the polling place telling them to vote for our guy.  My feeling when [...]

John Kerry and the Lack of Oxygen

By ⋅ September 21, 2004 ⋅ 2 comments

I remember back in the good ole days of Sierra computer games that there were a lot of creative software titles as well as creative fake titles in games.  My favorite series was the Space Quest Series which followed the path of a man who started out as a janitor but ended up the hero [...]

Swift Boat Controversy

By ⋅ August 20, 2004 ⋅ One comment

In my opinion it looks as if Kerry is going to be plauged by flip flops for the entire campaign.  Let alone the fact that he can’t get straight when (if ever) he was in Cambodia, now there’s a new Swift Boat ad!  This ad is hard to refute, for even Senator John McCain of [...]

A case of Mistaken Identity

By ⋅ August 17, 2004 ⋅ One comment

John Kerry’s crew has a case of mistaken identity.  Let’s see if you can tell the two apart: Which of these is running for President, and which of these was vice chairmen of the Senate intelligence committee?

Who are you going to vote for?

By ⋅ July 30, 2004 ⋅ 2 comments

It’s interesting, thinking about the upcoming Presidential election and who to vote for.  I’ve heard and read of many people on all sides of the issues bemoaning the fact that the two major candidates are either fuzzy about who they are as a ploy to get the center votes.  Either that, or the idea that [...]

Smear Attempt?

By ⋅ July 24, 2004 ⋅ One comment

John Kerry in a space suit.  This is some pretty funny stuff.  It appears that he posed for these pictures, so he had to know they were taken.  Did he think they were private?  Did he think they may make him look good with John Glenn?  What is his take on the timing of their [...]

The Lack of Space

By ⋅ February 17, 2004 ⋅ 2 comments

In case you are seeing what I am seeing– it appears that my last post suffers from a lack of space– or spaces. I’ve tried twice to fix it, but to no avail. I will endeavor to fix it in the near future. Just so you don’t think that I’ve missed it or have a [...]
