Jon Stewart interviews Elizabeth Warren...

...overseer of the TARP Program.  Though it's pretty funny, it's also very informative and explained in a way that most people can "get" (in a Jim Cramer/Jon Stewart interview kind of way), and I highly recommend it to those who are interested.

It's a two-part video, and I believe it's worth watching, though, unfortunately, some people will probably criticize it without even bothering to watch it in its entirety).

Elizabeth Edwards is "not that fond" of Obama's health care plan.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2117818/posts

Then Obama says at one of his speeches that going to be partnering up with her and they're going to be "figuring all this out".  I thought he already had a plan?  Now he's got to figure it out?  - Go figure!

black people saying how wonderful it was that we now have a black president.  I saw pre-election clips of black people saying it was time we elected a black president - one would assume that's how they voted.  I overheard conversations in public to the same effect.  I saw folks begging royal favors (a house, a higher hourly wage) of Obama at a town meeting. I saw a woman-on-the-street interview of an African American woman saying Obama was going to pay her mortgage and fuel her car 'If I help him, he'll help me.'   Is it politically incorrect to comment on these facts? 

This is hilarious!

To all you GEICO fans out there:  Little Richard translates for Bush.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2006/09/13/video-little-richard-tra_n_29379.html

but I really am concerned that the humor and personal attacks are distracting people from the true issue of the future of our country.  It is not important to me what a candidate eats or how well they dance. I don't need the candidate to be "like me."  I want the cream of the crop, the person who reads historical biographies for fun and does crosswords in ink. We simply cannot elect the same policies over and over and expect different results. Let's hear concrete plans, not slogans.

I am looking forward to watching this interview because I am truly interested in hearing what this man has to say.

I can recall as a child growing up to the tune of We have to fight Vietnam because the Communists want to take over the world.  During those times, the worst thing a person could be called in the USA was a Communist. 

It seems to me these days the USA is the one that wants to take over the world.  It has no respect for any government that cares about its poor people or even America's poor, for that matter.  (For example, Chavez tried to provide cheap oil to the poor last winter while Bush didn't care if poor Americans froze to death.)  Any country that removes the profit incentive from medicine or education for its citizens is a terrorist nation in Bush's eyes.  We're quickly approaching the day when most of us will be poor as the middle class continues to disintegrate before our eyes.

I am suspect of everyone Bush labels as terrorist these days, and I want to hear both sides.  Bush refuses to sit down diplomatically and listen to what Ahmadinejad has to say, so I'm grateful that Mike Wallace took the time to do so.

Thank you Jon!

He is a theology professor and member of Scholars for 911 Truth (one of those on the fringe loonies they keep telling you about - you will see he is not).

Check out Tucker's new look (I am LMAO).  He is not wearing his trademark bow tie, and looks like he set his hair with curlers.

the bit about the open microphone on McCain during the debate was brilliant!!! I laughed until I literally cried!!  By the way, Michelle Obama was warm, intelligent, sincere and very much First Lady material!!!
