President Obama set a new high/low for a president of the USA for being out of touch with the country. Let us ignore all the absentee decisions he has made concerning the economy and the attempt to make former President Bush's efforts during the Hurricane Katrina experience look "right on top of things' compared to his laughably "depend on God and pray" effort. Let us examine timing of his recent speech.

The prostitution of sport's values reached a new low with the Philadelphia Eagles buying someone who tortures dogs. Imagine your children in the grade school visited by the NFL heroes their impressionable minds have been programmed to idolize. Among them stands a player who hung dogs by their paws and whipped them and beat them with clubs and electric stun guns to destroy any niceness qualities the dog was bred for. What will they be thinking?

The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has stated that the Nuremberg conviction of Nazi war criminals was illegal because they were falsely convicted. This is logically based on their ruling stopping the State of Washington from blocking the enforcement of laws against Pharmacists pleading "conscience" to keep from dispensing an abortion medicine.

The Obama & congressional stimulus package is a stunning repudiation of former President Bill Clinton and vice president Al Gore.

In a clever move to retain a chance for the presidency after Barack Obama is revealed to be ineligible to be president, democrats moved Biden to the presidential spot and Hilary Clinton as his vice presidental candidate.

With the help of supportive newspapers anything can be shown as a change. Since people don't pay that much attention until an election year the idea theft is easy to miss. So let's take a look at some of the latest ideas the democrats are floating that are really reinventions of the wheel under a new name.

The April issue of Discover magazine on science, technology and the future features an interview with a brilliant physician named Robert Lanza. The article begins by stating that this pyhsician is developing tools to reverse paralysis, regenerate the heart and undo autoimmune disease. The article then asks the question "What is holding him back/"

The article goes on to say the replacement of any tissue without the fear of rejection can be done if you can create embryo stem cells to transfer to the target adult. But getting embryo stem cells produces an ethical problem.

The republicans have a feisty Ronald Reagan in skirts. They should take a tip from the Truman campaign and have her on the road every day speaking to crowds of people all across a targeted state. Instead McCain's campaign advisors have her meeting as often as possible with groups of reporters answering loaded questions on foreign policy. What a waste of time. It is like burying a flaming lantern in a manhole. She is a people person and people of both genders relate and respond to her.

The defeat of the House bailout bill is another contrived disaster as seen by the media with the economic intelligence of lemmings. Democrat House leader Pelosi put on the housefloor a bill so loaded with poison pills for republicans it could not pass and she knew it. The way to save her reputation was a scheme to enrage republicans by calling them traitors if the bill was not passed in this emergency. It worked because republicans voted against the bill.

McCain & Obama are squabbling over postponing their debate. The solution is logically obvious. Many democrats are asking if America can afford to send Palen to debate Putin of Russia. Here is a chance to see how she might fare. Don't postpon the debate. Send Palen to take McCain's place. It would be a perfect showtime presentation. Obama the muffin man debates Palen the pitbull with lipstick.
