McCain making sense
Behold! John McCain actually made sense for once when he offered his two cents in opposition of the automakers’ bailout.
George W. Bush has approved the bailout of $17 billion this morning. Barack Obama is supporting the bailout and the President’s decision. It’s strange that McCain would disagree with Bush and Obama, maybe he’s just having an “opposites” day.

McCain won’t regulate greenhouse gas emissions
The truth spills out!
John McCain and Sarah Palin seem to be supporting technology that would help decrease the rising greenhouse gas levels, or so says their official website. What McCain’s “climate change” position doesn’t tell you is that John doesn’t plan to do a thing about global warming. Sure, he’ll tell corporations to “set limits on greenhouse gas emissions,” but these limits are voluntary, not mandatory.
It’s like asking metro passengers to move towards the center of the train car in order to allow for more people to cram into the train. Some passengers will do it automatically, but others will stand near the doors blocking everyone else’s way in and out of the train car.
A voluntary cap-and-trade system, optional wind and solar technology, and a recycle-if-you-feel-like-it mentality will not save the planet. If reduction of GHG emissions will not be a law, it won’t mean much.

The ship is sinking, Senator.
In order for you guys and gals to be informed about Senator McCain, you’d have to dig deep to discover the dirt and the truth. Thankfully, the Rolling Stone is a time-saver. Tim Dickinson (genius that he is)Â wrote a mini-biography of John McCain that could be consumed over a long lunch, all 27 printer-friendly pages of it.
I’m sure that many of you don’t have that kind of time on your hands. Luckily, I do. Read on for a few insights into the senator’s hush-hush break-up with first wife Carol Shepp, his recklessness in the armed forces, and the temper that earned him a nickname “mean little f*cker.”Â
Warning: the article is explicit.
Of false promises and empty suits
There have been numerous videos made and many folksy songs written about McCain and Palin and their oh-so-crazy world. And now there’s a silly, but true, poem by Bruce Tenenbaum of the Huffington Post.
Read ahead for Bruce’s poem (don’t worry, it’s pretty short)!
