Sexism, What about AGEISM?

Posted by Right Fielder on Thursday, September 11, 2008 9:53:16 AM
The political party that portays itself as the defender of our (selective) civil rights (both constitutional and judicially granted) has no problem in this election practicing a rather disgusting and disappointing, yet widely accepeted form of discrimination, i.e. AGEISM.
 
"He is old", "he is 72", " He is out of touch with the new generation," "she would be just a heartbeat away from the presidency"NOW the latest by Mr. Obama calling Mr. McCain an old fish....all statements by the fear mongering left using Mr. McCain's age to try and discourage/scare voters from voting for him since he will more than likely die or become incapacitated....If I fail to train or promote one of my employees because of their age, guess where I will end up?, IN COURT....

So much for talking about issues....

McCain Running Unopposed...

Posted by Right Fielder on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 10:03:26 AM
The left are in extreme panic mode and it is fun to watch.  Obama is running against Palin, Biden is trying to run against Palin but has become nothing more than an after thought to this point in the election.  Then you have McCain, virtually running unopposed and continuing to dodge a lot of the extreme media scrutiny that is usually ratcheted up during the homestretch as they (the media) continue to try and hammer Palin to no avail.  I wonder if the left will ever come to their senses and realize Obama is not running against Palin, or George Bush and redirect their efforts into attacking McCain...lets hope their hatred for this female politician and what she stands for continues to occupy them from what they should be doing and that is competing with McCain....

Great Paglia Read....

Posted by Right Fielder on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 10:01:36 AM
A Great read from Camile Paglia regarding the current election...I hate to admit that I agree with a self descirbed athiest/independent, but many of the points she makes regarding modern feminism, Palin, McCain, Obama, Hillary, Biden etc are spot on.... Link below.

Politics of Personal Destruction Alive and Well

Posted by Right Fielder on Tuesday, September 09, 2008 11:41:44 AM
Good to see the issues are no longer the subject matter of this year's election for many (once again)...just a popularity contest between Obama and Palin....and Palin wins hands down....
Good to see the Clintons influence in american politics still resonates with many on the left....from CNN's "expose" on Palin and her religious beliefs last night to the left wing bloggers going crazy today, looks like we are in for another republican win....

Can McCain "Triangulate" like Bill Clinton?

Posted by Right Fielder on Thursday, September 04, 2008 12:58:38 AM
Can John McCain learn and execute the art of "triangulation" during the next 60 days to marginalize Obama and win the Whitehouse?  While all of the pundits unwittingly continue to insist on comparing the DNC's top of the ticket guy to the RNC's number two "gal", this leaves senator McCain with the opportunity to stay "above the fray" and let his VP choice continue to hammer Obama on his obvious shortcomings all-the-while taking the punches herself that should be reserved for McCain.  This should leave Mr. McCain free from the concentrated scrutiny that normally would be headed his way from the liberal media coming down the homestretch and allow him to stay on message virtually unchallenged by his opponent.  Let's hope Obama's campaign continues down this road to nowhere. Oh yeah, by the way, has anyone seen Senator Biden???
