The Sunday news shows

As I flipped through the Sunday news programs this last weekend almost every one of them were trying to criticize The Honorable Senator John McCain (THSJM) and Governor Sarah Palin (GSP). Just some facts – as I see it (in other words some – Gallologic).

- THSJM stopped his campaign to re-join the Senate to work on the bailout package. And even though I am unsure if I agree with his vote to approve, he demonstrated that he at least was willing to do the job that he was elected to do. He is still in the roles as a US Senator after all. While Barrack H Obama decided to wait for someone to call him and he was standing by to be "helpful". I guess this was based on his 193 whole days of experience as a US Senator. You have got to be freaking kidding me!

Then he (BHO) spun it to say that a president should be able to work on many things at once so that by continuing to campaign was demonstrating his "presidential abilities". The thing is that as he was being helpful, McCain was jumping into the fray. I just don't get how anyone could see what THSJM did as a bad thing.

- It was the Dems (Nancy Pelosi - the supreme leader) who during a speech prior to the house vote on the bailout who made the whole event political. She blasted Republicans for voting against the first bill. But as I see it these honorable congressmen )liek Marsha Blackburn of TN who voted against it both times) were voting as dictated by their constituents (1,000s of emails and calls will kind of make you take note). Isn't that why we have a democracy? Isn't that why we have proportional representation in the house? Because Pelosi is elected by a commune and by committee in the socialist city of San Francisco she does not understand how the rest of the country feels we have the right to bring our concerns to our ELECTED officials.

- Why does the media had GSP? I mean who gives a doody what specific newspapers she reads? She stumbled through that question by Katie Couric, but what not everyone realizes it was a trick question. Just days previous BOH was criticized for texting to his fan base to make sure they watched the debates on CNN. For all the possible things the media can pick up and really dig deep on, they chose this- the fact he "endorsed" a specific network. Of course it was really just jealousy, kind of like a family of kids fighting for their parents attention and getting mad when the parents focuses on one even if for a moment. So in short Gov Palin was just trying to be politically correct and avoid the same treatment. I guess that was the first time I was disappointed with her. Screw being PC, just tell then that you read the Washington Post and the NY Times like you would any enemy propaganda – that it is good to know the enemies of your country.
