		<description>Sorry, blake, I&#039;m not rewriting history.  I&#039;m calling it as i see it.

And blake, go check the record. Prior to McCain&#039;s return to DC, the House Republicans had been shut out.  Afterwards, their proposals were heard.

Obama?  Multi-tasker, hardly?  Worked behind the scenes?  Did you hear what Clinton had to say?  Obama didn&#039;t have a clue what he was doing.</description>

		<description>Come on, the campaign &quot;suspension&quot; was a political stunt.  The public saw through it.  McCain announced early in the week that he would suspend his campaign on Friday.  But all through the week, McCain lieutenants continued their interviews, McCain did his, etc.

The result of McCain&#039;s supposed work was that not enough Republicans voted for the bailout/rescue.  This embarrassed McCain.

In contrast, Obama was seen as a multi-tasker.  He campaigned and worked behind the scenes.

You can try to revise history but it doesn&#039;t work.</description>

		<description>Detroit has embraced Obamunism for the last 40 years, so it is fair to ask: &lt;a href=&quot;http://chicagoboyz.net/archives/6380.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Why isn&#039;t Detroit a Paradise?&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>&quot;A president canâ€™t do that.  He has to act.  Lacking experience in positions of executive authority, Obama has not provided us any clues how he would respond to a crisis.&quot;

What did Bush do?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The American people did not recognize McCainâ€™s commitment to action.  They saw instead Obamaâ€™s appearance of leadership.&lt;/i&gt;


I suppose because the Comrade Obama Glavlit told the people that his appearance was better. The way I saw it, both senators should have gone to Washington and carried out the duties of the job they have already.

Comrade Obama &lt;b&gt;SHOULD&lt;/b&gt; have been finished when he said &quot;Call me if you need me&quot;. &lt;B&gt;WT everlovin&#039; F???&lt;/b&gt; We&#039;re told that &lt;b&gt;that&#039;s&lt;/b&gt; leadership. It&#039;s so back assward.

I&#039;ve lost faith that anybody has any idea what leadership really is. Then again, these are the same folks who bastardized the word &quot;patriotic&quot; and continue to bastardize history and reality. Problem is, too many people listen to it and accept it as truth.</description>

		<description>I guess we&#039;re all used to those &quot;different rules&quot;!
Great comments, GPW! In some ways, I think those supporting Obama are voting for a king not a president. The election has felt more like a coronation. 

And I&#039;m reminded of the Old Testament book (Samuel 8,) where the Israelites demand a King, so they can be like everyone else. Interesting. God&#039;s comment back to the people is likewise interesting. After telling Samuel that the people are rejecting God, not Samuel, God gives Samuel the following message: Samuel 8:11-18 &quot;this is what the king who will reign over you will do: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. Some he will assign to be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. He will take the best of your fields and vineyard and olive groves and give them to his attendants. He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants. Your menservants and maidservants and the best of your cattle and donkeys he will take for his own use. He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his slaves. When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, and the Lord will not answer you in that day.&quot;

Here&#039;s a 2000+ year old account of people craving a dictator, despite the warnings that God gives them. Lots of interesting stuff in the Bible. 

Did some doorbelling today for McCain-Rossi. I see no McCain signs in anyone&#039;s yard, and almost no bumperstickers. Most of us in WA would be afraid our cars would be trashed, probably. As usual for this area (going door to door for any purpose), about half of the homes, despite there being signs of movement inside, produced no one at the door. The voters I did meet passed on the sentiment that they voted but didn&#039;t expect their vote to matter. We shall see. I remain cautiously hopeful, at least with respect to our gubernatorial race.</description>

		<description>I believe you hit on the one thing that may have lost McCain the election. He cared to act and do something and get into the thick of the action to find a bipartisan solution. Personally, I think he should have said the heart of the crisis is the mortgage loan crisis and we need to have the Lenders get together with borrowers and fix it (as it turns out JPMorgan Chase is doing that) and it won&#039;t cost the taxpayers a dime. It might have worked and said as to the banks if they have to write off the losses, they won&#039;t be penalized and if for those homeowners that still might need relief, then FHA will come along and we will extend the length of loans to say 40, 50 and if need be 60 year loans at a reasonable interest rate and the government gets a piece of the sale or when the loan is paid off in a refinance or pay off of the loan.

Nobama appeared cool by doing nothing and the fact of the matter is he profited by it and has throughout his career by doing nothing. Indeed, it has been written that Nobama decided to run this time around because his advisors told him he best run now before he has a record ala John Kerry and then get beaten up by it. 

John McCain stood up and did the right thing and tried to do the right thing...Nobama did the political thing and from that point on was able to beat McCain over the head with the economy.

sad but an excellent blog post. Now, what will the Marxist in Chief do when he is no longer campaigning and has to actually govern....which he gets very bored about doing. Interesting that the same inexperience/he gets bored argument that Democrats beat up Bush with they view as the joyous virtues of the Messiah/Chosen One.

All I can say, is Heaven help us and may the Good Lord save us from the Marxist in Chief so we don&#039;t suffer as we did during the Carter years..my guess is those years will look like Heaven after The Marxist in Chief gets done with destroying the economy and he will do it quicker then Jimmy Carter ever did.</description>

		<description>Yup.  As I&#039;ve written about on my blog, it&#039;s going to be much harder for Senator Government to vote Present on international crisis when he is President.  He&#039;ll probably defer to people with stronger views, like Ayers or Pelosi or Wright.  Obama&#039;s one talent is getting elected to office- once he is in there, there is going to be a lot of buyers remorse.</description>

		<description>Ironic: one of the slams on Bush was his indecision ( staying seated at the school when he was told about planes flying into the WTC; not responding to katrina fast enough to suit CNN). I guess there are different rules operating here.</description>
