Some late night RNC coverage

Agree that we Disagree? Huh?




This is going to be a short post, but I had to include this here.I was watching the RNC tonight and heard what President Bush said about Sen. McCain in regards to him disagreeing on topics and issues with him . Bush stated that he knows all about McCain and him disagreeing, how he said it kind of implied that they disagree often. Now, to my understanding, they agree 90% of the time. That wouldn't be a fact I would toss out there if I were bush or McCain, since most of the free world disagrees with President Bush 100% of the time. Am I wrong about this? are the facts spun? Or did Senator McCain beg Bush to say that? I have no clue, but I don't think it sounded right.

On the flip side, I thought the RNC tonight went well. The speeches that were given were sincere for the most part. The only exception was Laura Bush having trouble reading and or remember what the teleprompter said, when she was talking about her Husband. I loved the Reagan and McCain montages. I do respect and admire Sen McCain for his service, and I salute him as a fellow serviceman.


Like i always say, Either of the Candidates would be a good choice, it all depends what side you site on. I just like to write about content that I feel should be covered when I research throughout the day.

McCain,Palin and The Media

Family is off limits, but not when the media has nothing else to talk about.





You know there are a lot of qualities that I believe would make a good candidate, for Vice or for President. Some of them on my list include, selflessness, integrity,faith,leadership,passion, and the overall mindset to get this country back on track. What I don't include on my list, is the candidates children affairs, how many children she or he might have, or relatively small problems that we all have in our lives.

The media has gone way overboard on this matter. They are driving on the wrong side of the tracks when it comes to getting to know Gov. Sarah Palin. I have been reading all that I can on this matter, and I think the media is just plain ridiculous. Now i said it before i try to be unbias on here and talk about the good and bad in everyone. But if this is all the media can grasp a hold to for ratings, then I am very disappointed in there ability to cover stories that would be relevant in describing why said candidates would be a good choice.


Now let me state that I know Gov. Palin speaks strongly on family values, and that having a 17 year old pregnant daughter kind of sways it a little bit. But, can someone be with a child every moment of every day? Do i believe that she probably didn't condone this? Yes, she was probably mad. Since when does a parent or child making a mistake, impair the chance she has? I mean seriously if we were all perfect, then we could all run. I would love to know what these anchors and such have to hide. But i don't dig into it because it is not my damn business. That's right, not our business to know about ones child affairs.


I have read a few posts, and I reports from the public. Some of them state that we deserve to know about Bristol Palin. Well when she runs for Vice President then ask her. I believe these responses are out of the media created buzz and nothing more. The media creates stories that some of us thrive on. Its these nonsense stories that keep people going. Now i will say everyone has a right to an opinion, and i always take them into consideration, but when it comes to this side show of a report i just have to laugh at its sub par meaningless content.

Well i will some it up like i always do. People thinks really hard why or what makes you vote for someone. Think about all the imperfections we all have. I am not saying who to vote for, like i always state. I just wish that the media buzzards would reports on such well I don't have any other word right now... crap.

RNC and Gustov. Could McCain sieze the moment? Or could it hurt?




As the RNC approaches today, it was announced that it would be limited and or delayed due to the hell of a hurricane we know as Gustav.


First and foremost I would like to state, that there is nothing more important than the well being of Americas Citizens. It is my opinion that Gustav and the areas in threat should be handled above all. With that being said I'm going to talk about the well being of the RNC, and what effects Gustav might have on the Republican outcome.


As I read through the RNC updates in the news, I stumbled upon an announcement that stated, the first day of the RNC activities would be cut back drastically. I also read that key players would not be attending due to Gustav. A few on the list are, Republican Govs. Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, Charlie Crist of Florida, Haley Barbour of Mississippi and Rick Perry of Texas -- whose states lie in the path of the Category 3 Gustav . This is what is supposed to be done. But will it effect the RNC and election outcome?


My thoughts on this are, Day one of the convention is in a sense a opening day kick off. There is a lot of hype surrounding the beginning. Delaying this would downplay the whole thing a bit. Although there are several days left and plenty of agenda to go, I believe that even 1 day of a huge event like this could have some backlash. Micheal Moore is quoted as jokingly saying"This Gustav is proof that there is a god in heaven". Maybe some people honestly believe that some kind of intervention was destined to happen to the RNC. Or will McCain and the Republican party seize the moment?






If you think the outcome couldn't possibly be different, think again. John McCain has taken action on Gustav almost immediately. Being able to make quick decisions on unforeseen or unpredictable events, could play out strongly in this whole scenario. We as Americans get to take a look at his new lead from the front theme. It also does them a huge favor in keeping President Bush away from St. Paul. Last but not least it could show McCain and his party are willing to sacrifice. In a sense all these could throw a small surge of voters towards the McCain and Palin campaign, resulting in stealing some of Barack Obamas thunder.


Well with that being said, we'll just have to see whats it store for the RNC, McCain and the people.I also am also sending Prayers out for the Americans that are in Gustav's wake. Hang in there and be safe!
