The Phillies have their second World Series victory. The first was in the 1980 Series over the Kansas City Royals. The second occurred on October 29, 2008 when the Phillies defeated the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5 for a 4-1 Series win and their second world championship.
The Phillies also made the World Series in 1915, 1950, 1983, and 1993 but lost each time.
The McCain quest for the Presidential race will end in a win or loss in Pennsylvania and be determined by the turnout in Philadelphia and three surrounding counties.
Yes He Can....

ReplyDelete"So he helped Mosely Braun's election.
Great.
His judgment is already in question regarding the folks he reveres and takes as mentors and contributors. Alan Dixon was a really good man; and Mosely Braun, who was cashing her mom's wefare checks while the old lady was in a State-paid nursing home, and who let taxpayers fund her boyfriend's trips to Africa with her was just the type of pol he purports NOT to admire.
Sorry, but his emphasis on collectivism has turned me off entirely."
"A state agency has revealed that its checks of computer systems for potential information on
ReplyDelete"Joe the Plumber" were more extensive than it first acknowledged."
Meanwhile, virtually ALL of BHO's records remain under seal.
To check the plumber,
or the POTUS,
that is the question.
Okay, Doug. I didn't "Fisk" your article. I did respond to it in general - and hopefully pointed - terms.
ReplyDeleteI will add that I feel for Mario Montoya. So many of these guys who have proved invaluable in the last few years did, however, come up in the bad old days and continue to fall victim to their own skeletons in the closet. You can imagine the extreme ambivalence between the desire to leave the past behind and the simple requirements of public acknowledgment and justice. That's the hardest row they've got to hoe.
Barack Obama’s Letter To The Daily Kos
ReplyDeleteTone, Truth, and the Democratic Party
by Barack Obama
Fri Sep 30, 2005
"There is one way, over the long haul, to guarantee the appointment of judges that are sensitive to issues of social justice, and that is to win the right to appoint them by recapturing the presidency and the Senate. And I don’t believe we get there by vilifying good allies, with a lifetime record of battling for progressive causes, over one vote or position. I am convinced that, our mutual frustrations and strongly-held beliefs notwithstanding, the strategy driving much of Democratic advocacy, and the tone of much of our rhetoric, is an impediment to creating a workable progressive majority in this country.
According to the storyline that drives many advocacy groups and Democratic activists - a storyline often reflected in comments on this blog - we are up against a sharply partisan, radically conservative, take-no-prisoners Republican party. They have beaten us twice by energizing their base with red meat rhetoric and single-minded devotion and discipline to their agenda.
In order to beat them, it is necessary for Democrats to get some backbone, give as good as they get, brook no compromise, drive out Democrats who are interested in “appeasing” the right wing, and enforce a more clearly progressive agenda.
The country, finally knowing what we stand for and seeing a sharp contrast, will rally to our side and thereby usher in a new progressive era. "

ReplyDeleteThanks.
ReplyDeleteJPOST is again shilling for Hussein: The Obama Family Rabbi. I'm about to trash this paper into the MSM garbage bin.

ReplyDeleteyes, but the U.S. citizens are absentee voting McCain over Obama 3-1 in Israel. Drudge says about 40,000 U.S. Citizens are living there.
GR,
ReplyDeleteTrue, but that's a separate issue. JPOST has been printing a lot of leftist crap lately. So much so, that I'm about to lose my patience with them.
And I'm not the only one to complain.
