Mark’s Soap Box

… or do they? We were told that Obamassiah would bring Peace to the world, restore respect to the US, end hunger, end recession, and make us all safer merely by being elected. In other words he was the “second coming” and all would be right in the world.

Well, he is not even President and the lies are now being brought into the light, and it’s not Obama. It’s the light of Truth.

That would be a hate crime in the US. If it were George Bush or any other White Person, it would not be since hatred towards Whites is o.k.

The caption was:

When they were burning Bush anything, they were not “hardline demonstrators,” they were “student demonstrators” or something more innocuous.

The Barry O fan club

More images of the people Barack Obama supports. Remember, these people were doing all they could to get him elected. He has constantly sided with them, and wants to help them destroy Israel.

Is that a “drive by?” Oh that is racist! Funny that the terrorists are turning on the person who wants to destroy Israel for them.

This is sort of like Selma ‘back in the day.’ Oh there I go again, pointing out the hypocrisy of the left.

Now how is that for tolerance? Funny how that is not considered Racist by the media or the Obama camp.

More Obama supporters. Amnesty International is back at it, siding with Terrorists. The media, of course, is on their side.

Funny how only when Terrorists and their enablers are being killed, Amnesty International suddenly can voice outrage. If it’s Jews or anyone who is Christian, they are nowhere to be found. Of course the liberal media flocks to cover the support of Terrorism calling it Humanitarian.

That is the attitude of Obama administration and the liberal media.

The left is whining — and this includes Shepard Smith of Fox News — that the media is not in Gaza; clearly they are there and doing the bidding of the Palestinian Terrorists.

We told you they would never be satisfied, and you didn’t listen. Hey America, feeling stupid yet for listening to the “rest of the world?” You should be.

This is too funny. Liberals just can’t stand it when the public has any say. In an editorial in the San Diego City Beat, the “editors” posted this doozy.

We’ve lamented repeatedly in this space that private money over and over again gets in the way of good public policy at every level of government, and we’ve registered numerous times our wish that such money could be eliminated from elections altogether. The problem is, contributing to political campaigns falls under the umbrella of free speech.

Yes, it truly does suck for liberals when they can’t control us little people. Unreal.

… and thought I had the wrong day. There were 3 workers and 1 person ahead of me and he was having his registration straightened out. It seems it had lapsed, or something like that. So they were busy reviving it.

Any way the arrangement was different this time. We didn’t have the spacious arrangement we did at the last election. It was much tighter, although not bad considering there were 7 voting stations for the 2 of us to choose from. *loll*

So I get my paper ballot, which is in a folder … weird. Walk over to the station, and it’s cardboard. Wow that’s eco-friendly. Why not use something that is reusable? Oh hell no, we need disposable since we live in California and hate those bad ol’ oil companies. Sheesh. Now you may be wondering how can you use a paper ballot on a cardboard stand. It was tricky. I have no doubt that someone is going to destroy one, soon. Either they are going to stick the pen through it or they are going to lean on and ‘boom’; hospital bound.

Which brings up another point. How tall are the people who design these things? 3 Feet? I am 6′ 1″ and it was a bit low for me. Not terribly bad, but not fun either. Guess they have not designed the adjustable cardboard polling station.

Anyway, I voted. Romney for the Republican Nomination, and no on all the idiotic amendments. Then traverse the 4 feet 6 and 1/8 inches back to the polling folks, and hand them my ballot all neatly tucked into it’s manila folder. The lovely lady working there, tore off my receipt — no kidding, it had a receipt on top of it — and then gave me my sticker, and as I walked off said:”Wait, make sure I put it in.”

Get your mind out of the gutters people.

So she slides in while I am saying:”I trust you, not worried about it.” It was nice to see people following the rules for once. Refreshing change from the Clintons and McCains.

UPDATE: It looks like McCain will gain many of the delegates here, and that is bad. The good, is that Huckabee stuck it to McCain in several states.

Well Roger Clemens finally came out personally to “deny” using Performance enhancing drugs” (PED). Little late there, Rog ol’ boy.

Wow! way to man up! Not. Can you be any less enthusiastic? You need to fire your PR flack, and lawyers. Their advice sucks, and is killing your rep. You are not helping, either.

Clemens’s video release comes five days after he said in a written statement issued by his agent that he never used banned substances.

It took you over a week to issue the written denial, now another 5 days to put up a video. Does it not mean anything to you that your entire career has been trashed? You seem to not care. So I have to assume that your response, which is strikingly similar to Barry Bonds’ responses means you are just as guilty.

You don’t lead with the credits. You come out swinging; WHEN THEY MAKE THE ALLEGATIONS. You have a long way to go to convince me that your are innocent.

Curt Schilling is also discussing this issue, and has come really good takes on it.

This is too funny. Some of the commentors are going nuts.

Innocent Until Proven Guilty … or not

Is Sen. Mitchell going to investigate commentors for steroid use? Check for something, please!
