Watch those angry white men In election 2008, don't forget the Angry White Man. Obviously, I am female, but even I had to say amen, after reading this article. There is one group no one has recognized, and it is the group that will decide the election: the Angry White Man. The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard. (Via Cold Fury)

2nd Amendment Here's the rub: The Justice Department says the Court of Appeals ruling that overturned the D.C. ban might cast doubt on the constitutionality of existing federal legislation, including machine-gun regulations. So the administration urged that Heller be returned to the lower courts for appropriate fact-finding to determine whether rifles and shotguns in the home, as permitted by the D.C. Code, are an adequate substitute for handguns. Yup, machine guns, rifles, and shotguns are so easy to conceal and all.... (Via Lucianne)

Wizbang Blue: Obama Slams Bush as Fear-Monger

"They're trying to fool you. They're trying to scare you and they're not telling the truth," a fired-up Obama declared while campaigning in South Dakota. "But it's not going to work. Both Bush and McCain represent the failed foreign policy and fear mongering of the past," Obama said. "I believe the American people are ready to reject this approach and to choose the future."

Will:

Wonder if Obama realizes that people are voting for him because they're rejecting Hillary? You actually think that we are voting for him because we are rejecting her? lol. From a person that has studied both candidates and their policies extensively, It amazes me how little everyone actually knows. It's a race that most of you are viewing with your eyes instead of your intellect. If that is how you will vote, my advise is to stay home and let people who actually took the time to know where both candidates stand do the voting. Were in a time where petty differences over race and gender will not only tare apart the Democratic party and it's process but could lead to much bigger problems for this country. The moral of this story is think before you act and then if you still back your candidate then so be it. My vote is for Obama.

Melissa:

Laugh all you like Will, we'll see what happens TEN MONTHS from now. I really couldn't care less why people vote for Obama really, I'm not voting for him. I'm not voting McCain either. I'm voting in the elections that matter, the one wherein the power lies and that would be the senate and house elections. The president doesn't have any real power. All he can do is make proposals and veto anything he doesn't like. Checks and balances. Works everytime. Vote for your congress critters and senators who are up for re-election this time around. Take the democrats out of the majority, put the republicans back in the majority. Watch the fireworks.
