McCain Has The 'Big Mo' (reprint)
Here is an article from Newsmax that really got my attention: (my jabs are in yellow).
McCain Has the ‘Big Mo’ in Arizona Race
By: John Mercurio
Using the political calculus of today, Sen. John McCain should be facing the political fight of his life.
Instead, the four-term incumbent holds a significant lead over his main opponent and appears to be breezing toward a big win in Arizona's Aug. 24 Republican primary.
The Arizona Republic newspaper recently summed up the trend, headlining that McCain held a “devastating” lead over his challenger, former GOP Rep. J.D. Hayworth. A July Rocky Mountain poll by the Phoenix-based Behavior Research Center showed McCain with a whopping 64 percent of the vote, compared with 19 percent for Hayworth.
At first, pundits thought the war hero and Arizona Republican would face a tough challenge from Hayworth, who became a Phoenix radio talk show host after losing his congressional seat in November 2006.
But McCain is one of the few Washington Republicans riding high on the tea party wave, and he probably will not suffer the fate of Utah Sen. Bob Bennett, who was ousted by grass-roots conservatives at the state's GOP convention in May.
According to McCain's supporters, he was a “tea partyer” long before the term became fashionable, having acted as a fiscal and deficit hawk in the Capitol for decades. For example, McCain is one of a mere handful of senators who has eschewed political-pork earmarks.
He also earned praise for being one of President Barack Obama’s fiercest critics from the earliest days of the new administration. GOOD FOR JOHNNY MAC! HE GIVES ODUMBO A POLITICAL "CAINING!"
"I am proud of the leadership position I have taken fighting this administration," McCain said during a recent debate in Phoenix. DID OBAMA FEEL THE "CAINING", OR DID HE STUFF HIS FAKE BIRTH CERTIFICATES IN HIS PANTS TO PAD HIS 'FANNIE'?
During his more than two decades in the Senate, McCain has not been a hard-line partisan. So his criticisms of Obama’s uncompromising ways are striking a nerve.
In a July New York magazine article, McCain expressed his frustration with Obama, saying: “This administration has decided to govern from the far left without any consultations or negotiations or any compromises to be made with the other party! You know how many times I’ve been asked to go over to the White House to negotiate on any issue? Zero. Zero."
During his first debate with Hayworth on July 16, McCain went on to recite a litany of ways he's fought to defeat the "change" agenda that carried Obama to victory two years ago. Hayworth had a sharp response.
"John, if you had told the truth about Barack Obama the way you're spreading falsehoods about me," he quipped, "you might be president of the United States right now."
But Hayworth’s invective against McCain hasn’t been gaining traction with Republican voters.
Hayworth has tried to present himself as the tea party candidate. But he experienced a serious setback in March, when Arizona's four largest grass-roots organizations — the Tucson Tea Party, the Greater Phoenix Tea Party, the Flagstaff Tea Party, and the Mohave County Tea Party — issued a joint statement that they would not be making any endorsement.
Meanwhile, Sarah Palin, one of the tea party’s de facto leaders, strongly endorsed McCain. In a joint campaign event in March, Palin declared the tea party phenomenon "a beautiful grass-roots movement that is putting government back on the side of the people . . . Everybody here today supporting John McCain, we're all part of that tea party movement."
While conservatives have had some differences with McCain through the years, Hayworth also has a Washington record after 12 years in Congress. Some tea party activists say Hayward does not completely reflect the small-government emphasis that they are pushing.
"The tea party is a nonpartisan, grass-roots movement that stands for limited government, free markets, and fiscal responsibility," said Robert Mayer of the Tucson Tea Party.
Everett Wilkinson, a member of the national leadership council of Tea Party Patriots, tells Newsmax that his organization has chosen not to endorse candidates in Arizona or elsewhere.
"We think it's in the best interest of our country and our movement to allow activists and local groups to endorse," he says. "We're a bottom up rather than a top-down organization. As a nonprofit, there are certain legal hurdles that we have to overcome to endorse candidates, and we've chosen at this time not to deal with those."
Hayworth claims endorsements from about a half-dozen tea party organizations. A third candidate for the nomination, Navy veteran and conservative Jim Deakin, is considered a long shot. Deakin has received limited tea party support.
The polls seem to show the momentum is with McCain. In addition to the Rocky Mountain poll, a June Rasmussen Reports survey showed McCain enjoying a commanding lead of 47 percent to 36 percent.
That's impressive considering that Arizona's most controversial issue this year is immigration. In April, the Arizona Legislature passed SB 1070, requiring law officers in the state to determine a citizen's residency after a "lawful contact" or arrest, when a reasonable suspicion exists that the person is
illegal. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer quickly signed the measure into law, and the Obama administration has filed a lawsuit on the grounds the law pre-empts the federal prerogative to protect the borders and control immigration.
Hayworth often notes that McCain strongly backed a moderate immigration compromise as recently as 2006. But McCain acknowledged almost two years ago that his support for the immigration bill was a mistake. He said that he should have demanded that a border security program be implemented first and has made that a legislative priority.
McCain also strongly embraced SB 1070, and has won Brewer's endorsement.
"We have to address the issue of the people who are here illegally. No amnesty,” McCain declared on the “Jon Justice Show,” a popular radio program for conservatives in Tucson. “Many of them need to be sent back.”
McCain has likened himself to Theodore Roosevelt, a popular Republican who occasionally broke with his party on some issues but was revered for his staunch Americanism. McCain likes the populist and “straight talk” tack, one that seems to be working this year.
Interestingly, McCain garnered support from another plain-spoken celebrity: Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi of MTV's "Jersey Shore" show.
Polizzi recently told McCain's daughter Meghan she voted for him in 2008 because "he was really cute and I liked when he did his speeches." REALLY CUTE? OH MY!
That prompted McCain to quip on Fox News: "'Vote for me, I'm cute.' I think the days are long past when I could use that as a slogan." HA HA!
And this year it won’t help. Voters are looking for fighters who won’t accept the establishment line. McCain appears to fit the bill.

Nancy Pelosi
PELOSI
It's All In How You Say It
Nancy Pelosi was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car. Suddenly, a cow jumps out into the road, they hit it full on, and the car comes to a stop. Nancy, in her usual charming manner, says to the chauffeur:'You get out and check - you were driving.'
The chauffeur gets out, checks, and reports that the animal is dead but it was old.
'You were driving; go and tell the farmer,' says Nancy

Two hours later, the chauffeur returns totally plastered, hair ruffled with a big grin on his face. 'My God, what happened to you?' asks Nancy.
The chauffeur replies:'When I got there, the farmer opened his best bottle of Scotch whisky, the wife cooked me a great meal and the daughter made love to me.'
'What on earth did you say?' asks Nancy.
I said to them: 'I'm Nancy Pelosi's chauffeur, and I've just killed the old cow.'

John Kerry "I Have A Slam!"
Talk about sour grapes, here is a slam delivered by John Kerry to George Stephanopoulos published in Newsmax:
John Kerry: Rush Limbaugh Forced Palin Pick
Monday, September 1, 2008 5:21 PM
By: Phil Brennan
According to Massachusetts Democratic Sen. John Kerry, John McCain didn't choose Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin because she knows more about energy than just about anybody else in politics. John McCain didn't choose Sarah Palin because she is a hard-nosed, take-no-prisoners reformer. He didn't choose Sarah Palin because she is a skilled debater and campaigner. According to Kerry, Rush Limbaugh made him do it. NewsBusters reported that Kerry told ABC's George Stephanopoulos on Sunday's "This Week" that "John McCain wanted to choose Tom Ridge. He wanted to choose Joe Lieberman. He wanted to choose another candidate, but you know what? Rush Limbaugh and the right-wing vetoed it. And John McCain was forced to come back and pick a sort of Cheney-esque social conservative who's going to satisfy the base. What John McCain has proven with this choice is that John McCain is a prisoner of the right-wing, not a maverick."
Asked by Stephanopoulos if when he said that McCain is erratic he meant it was because he chose Gov. Palin Kerry said "Absolutely. Because what has happened is that John McCain . . . You know, we've been warning against the third term of George Bush. "With the choice of Governor Palin, it is now the third term of Bush-Cheney. Because what he's done is chosen somebody who actually doesn't believe that climate change is man-made. He's chosen somebody who has zero, zero experience in foreign policy. The first threshold test of a president, of a nominee, in choosing a vice-president, is to prove to the American people that the person that you've chosen can fill in tomorrow. "That they come with the requisite experience to lead the nation in foreign policy and in national security. You know, she may be, I mean I'm sure she's a terrific person. I'm not attacking her. I think John McCain's judgment is once again put at issue because he's chosen somebody who clearly does not meet the national security threshold. Who is not ready to be president tomorrow."

The far left wing will be miserable when John McCain and Sarah Palin take the White House, because their free ride will be over! So don't cry over spilled ketchup Senator Kerry! The government will stop subsidizing all your rotten tomatoes!

Scripture To Think About: Psalm 63: 1-4
O God, you are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you,
my body longs for you,
in a dry and weary land
where there is no water.
(2) I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
(3) Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
(4) I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
It's been a few weeks since I last posted any scripture on this site. I have been through a bit of a dry spell to figure out what to post for the site. With the crazy politicking going on in the nation, I do admit I did write one wacky post. I heard a few of you readers have seen the post and got a laugh or two out of it; yet I must be careful to not cross the line, at least not too often. Hopefully, I'll have a few more scriptures to post quickly this week. I hope this one helps!
