Sorry for ranting. I could fill a page with these

Liked you rant - it would make a great stand alone post... Maybe other freepers would like to add to the list.

I had a liberal tell me once that patriotism was the willingness to criticize your country.

Facts do not matter if you are a demo-rat. Just make stuff up on the spot to make yourself look smarter.

I recommend reading George Orwell’s book “1984” on a “hypothetical” society that lives in a world where no truth is spoken and everything is based on a lie. It will remind you of demo-ratic campaigning.

Hey! I could "buck up" just fine if I hadn't been through Schwartzenfrauder already here in Cauleeforneeah!!! Geesh!!!

Both he and Juan McGore have some terribly strange ideas about how a Republican should act and absolutely no allegiance to conservative principles whatsoever!!!

Yes! Palin is the only possible bright spot on the current horizon and she is being dragged down by the sensless stuff from the "maverick" smaverick AZ Senator!!!

It's hard to watch, let alone be "buck up!" I'm thinking we're already pretty bucked-up and whistling in the dark as it is!!!

You are right....this campaign, if the gloves stay on, will have to rank as one of the worst ever run.

Let’s see, how can I continue to PISS off the base. Al Gore? CHECK...Cuomo? CHECK.

My friends, I’ve even succeeded in making BOBTHENAILER very angry that he contributed. I’m such a maverick, heh, huh, heh,heh heh.

I like it as much as the one on the Trib-Dem. Which one do you want to go with? I’m going to have to post either one in blogs.

It baffles me why Thomas Sowell is not a key advisor
to McCain or other Presidential nominees.

The main question is why the Republican Party nominates people who do NOT make Sowell a key advisor - if not, in times past, their VP nominee.
