| Diane Feinstein's video opposing Prop 8 | Our Greatest Fear - President Sarah Palin |
He writes music for films that tap into some of our greatest nightmares, but what is acclaimed composer Danny Elfman's greatest fear? President Sarah Palin. And that is the heart of a powerful new TV ad airing today, produced by Elfman's newly formed political action committee (PAC), OurGreatestFear.org. "Undecided voters need to think about the fact that John McCain's advanced age and his continuing battle with cancer mean that the probability of him not completing his term simply too high. And the very real possibility of Sarah Palin at as Commander-in-Chief of the most powerful military force in the world is unacceptable-- even unimaginable." Elfman, who has never participated in politics before, believes the ad's message will resonate with millions of voters who understand that a vote for McCain is far too likely to deal America an unpredictable wildcard at time of national crisis. |
As Ben at The Politico notes, one of the celebs is washed up SNL vet Victoria Jackson, who has this ace wingnuttia about Obama up on her personal web site. Again, this is so ridiculous that it looks like satire. Alas, no.
I don't want a political label, but Obama bears traits that resemble the anti- Christ and I'm scared to death that un-educated people will ignorantly vote him into office.
You see, what bothers me most, besides being a Communist, and a racist (Obama writes in his book, From Dreams of My Father, "I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and and animosity against my (white) mother's race.") (Obama's "religion" of the last 20 years is Black Liberation Theology. What is that? "It is simply Marxism dressed up in Christian rhetoric. But unlike traditional Marxism, Black Liberation Theology emphasizes race rather than class. It's leading theorist is James Cone who says Jesus was black, African-Americans are the chosen people, and whites are the devil. Cone says, "What we need is the destruction of whiteness, which is the source of human misery in the world." The McAlvany Intelligence Advisor), is that he is a LIAR. He pretends to be a Christian and he incriminates himself everytime he speaks about Christianity. To lie about being a believer in Christ is very dangerous. Lightning could strike him at any minute! But seriously, he doesn't have a clue what the Bible says and yet he pretends to be a church- going Christian to win votes. That is sooooo evil.
For the past two months, a major American magazine and an allied news service have been engaged in a legal battle with the United States Navy over records that they believe show that John McCain once was involved in an automobile accident that injured or, perhaps, killed another individual.When officials start stonewalling on issues that are obviously in the public interest by claiming they aren't, you know the story has merit. If there was nothing to this story, the records would have been released immediately and the issue would have simply disappeared without ever being reported on. Now that the incident has come to light, the Navy will try and "run out the clock".Vanity Fair magazine and the National Security News Service claim to have knowledge "developed from first-hand sources" of a car crash that involved then-Lt. McCain at the main gate of a Virginia naval base in 1964, according to legal filings. The incident has been largely, if not entirely, kept from the public. And in documents suing the Navy to release pertinent information, lawyers for the NS News Service allege that a cover-up may be at play.
"Plaintiffs have also obtained documents showing that law enforcement officers were ordered back to the accident scene to retrieve personal physical effects. The Navy has never publicly acknowledged this information," one document reads. "This request involves federal government activity, as it addresses what may be an attempt by the Navy to protect by concealment the involvement of a former Navy officer, sitting Senator and Presidential candidate in a serious incident involving the injury or death of another human being."
The first request for information concerning duty assignment logs to Portsmouth Naval Hospital -- where McCain was allegedly brought after the accident -- came in the form of a Freedom of Information Act request on August 28, 2008. The Navy acknowledged receipt of the request and advised that it had located the relevant information a few weeks later, only to deny the FOIA on grounds that it didn't prove an "imminent threat to the life or physical safety of an individual" or satisfy the criteria of "a breaking news story of general public interest."
Unlike Bush's DUI, if someone died because of McCain's notorious recklessness, this has a DIRECT bearing in the election.
(And personally, I think Bush's DUI was germane, and revealed a deep character flaw, especially his attempts to minimize it.).
How about this winning forgery, purportedly from the Virginia Board of Elections, tells recipients that the polls will be so jammed that on November 4, independents and Republicans will vote, and Democrats will go to the polls on November 5. Voter suppression, my friends? It even uses fake letterhead to make it look official. (Raw Story):[T]he flyer says "All Democratic party supporters and independent voters supporting Democratic candidates shall vote on November 5th." That's one day after Election Day.Well we know who ISN'T circulating it -- Democrats.Whoever is circulating the flyer seems concerned with electing Republicans. The phony information tells "Republican party supporters and independent voters supporting Republican candidates" to vote on Nov. 4, the real day of the election.
...The flyer was circulated around several locations in Hampton Roads, according to the paper.
Hampton Roads, in southeast Virginia near Virginia Beach, sits in the commonwealth's 2nd Congressional District, where Democrats are in a hard-fought race to unseat incumbent Republican Rep. Thelma Drake, who won re-election two years ago by a margin of just 5,000 votes. The latest poll in the district shows Drake leading by just 5 percent.
It is unclear who is circulating the flyer, but state police are investigating.
