A Michigan Election Flashback - a peek into the future

Since Huckabee dropped out, I haven’t been studying the results as closely.  I’ve swallowed the pretty pills the republicans send me each week and I expect to be voting for McCain.  Bob Barr’s campaign is more fizzle than sizzle and I’ve voted for Ross Perot one to many times in my life.

Besides, once I’ve accepted my role as loyal pawn, the subliminal messages hidden in the music I downloaded from the GOP website aren’t quite so annoying.  And the 3 families of illegal aliens undocumented workers living next door to me needed my children’s bicycles more than they did.  I should buy more anyway - so China can raise its standard of living.

On to the point . . .

I think we’ve finally come to the end of the primaries for the Democrats.  Obama crushed Hillary in North Carolina.  And Hillary squeeked by in Indiana.

The ending to this tale was told on January 15th by the Michigan election that Hillary won by a whopping 15%.  I know you are asking, “How can a Hillary victory foretell her eventual defeat?”  Because, her opponent in Michigan was Uncommitted.  And Uncommitted drew 40% in a state that should have loved her.

Candidate	Popular Vote
Hillary Clinton	55%
Uncommitted	40%

Not enough evidence for you?

Candidate	Popular Vote
Hillary Clinton	328309
Mitt Romney	338316

Against Uncommitted, she won 328309 votes.  Mitt Romney out performed her with 338316 votes against 2.5 legitimate opponents in McCain, Huckabee, and Ron Paul.  (Judging by the yard signs, Ron Paul still has a strong following in Michigan.)

It’s time to get interested again.  I have MANY reservations about voting for McCain.  But, evil lurks in Barack Obama.  He is the most Pro-Abortion candidate in history.  And he must not win.

Energy Cost, Nuclear Power, and Two things I love about the French

I don’t really like paying $3.75 for gas. And pulling oil from the National Reserve is not a solution to energy crisis. Neither is Ethanol. There are better options.

I do like nuclear power. And, it is a solution.

The US Military has used Nuclear power for a very long time. The USS Nimitz is an example of that.

It:

• is powered by two nuclear power plants.
• can support 6000 people.
• travels at 30 knots (35 mph)
• has 4.5 acres of flight deck

Nuclear Power is one of the things that the French get right. They get 75% of their power from nuke plants. And they make $4.6 BILLION exporting power.

Nuff said!

Oops. I promised two things I love about the French. I give you . . . LeCar.

Who will win in Pennsylvania?

The Pro-Abortion Barack Obama or former co-President Hillary Clinton whose claim to qualification is being married to a racist womanizer.

Here’s what Drudge is predicting

Women
Clinton 55%
Obama 44

Men
Clinton 47%
Obama 53

Fox News in Negotiation with Disney

I have it on solid sourcing that Fox is negotiating with Disney to purchase the acronym ABC.

You Stupid Rubes - Don’t you know a joke

Here’s Bill Maher’s apology. I feel better now. Don’t you? Or are you to unsophisticated to recognize when someone is truly remorseful?

The Great Brain

In my last post, I commented about my little brain. It reminded me of a series of books I read in junior high. It started with The Great Brain by John Fitzgerald. The book is focused on the exploits of The Great Brain, Tom Fitzgerald, and his Catholic family living in the heart of Mormon country.

A very fun book for a 10 year old boy. Try it out. Better yet, read it to your son or grandson.

RNC Chairman Huckabee

Recently I posted about Mike Huckabee becoming Catholic.  Now, this was done tongue-in-cheek.  But, he does tend to follow Catholic doctrine.  That said, many religious do.  And, his religion is not really important to me.  His beliefs are.  That post brought me a lot of traffic, thanks to Kevin Tracy for throwing me a bone.

The long awaited release of Mike Huckabee’s new website put a new thought in my little brain.  Mike Huckabee may be the right candidate to transform the republican party as the RNC chairman for the 2010 elections.  He has the passion and message people want to hear.  He will learn how to fund raise.  And he will infuse the party with a high level of personal ethics.

At the same time, leading the Republican party to a successful mid-term election will go a long way to building support for the 2012 nomination if McCain loses to Obama.

Global Warming Hoax

You all know that I like Wattsupwiththat.  He’s a clear thinker.  And, he has a protege.  A youthful, clear thinker.

I have written many times about the hysteria of global warming.  When studying data, you must recognize that everyone’s ability to collect data is not equal.

Temperature measurement in chemical industries is particularly difficult.  You have to make many decisions.  Sometimes the most difficult to answer is what level of accuracy do you need?  If you are separating two components with very different boiling points, accuracy is not that important.  If you are measuring a reaction temperature that is critical to quality, accuracy is very important.

Take a look at how the GLOBAL WARMING data is being collected.  If you think this data is credible, then you need to spend a little more time on Kristen Byrnes’ website or at wattsupwiththat

“Bill Maher is an Idiot” or ‘Nazi Pope?’

I couldn’t decide the title of this post. So, I put both.

What is it about Bill Maher that is so entertaining? His latest hate speech involves the Pope.

Why does someone like this deserve his own show? Why does he continue to get attention?

When Mike Huckabee asked the question, “Don’t Mormons believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?” he was scorned by the media and lost some of his momentum. At the time, I thought the question showed a momentary lack of judgement on Huckabee’s part. But, I didn’t think (and still don’t) that is was a slur of any sort on Mormonism. The media spun it into one and in my opinion helped unravel Huckabee’s campaign.

Yet, Maher gets a pass on his comments. Nazi Pope, organized pedaphilia. What could he say that is more discriminatory? He’s disgraceful and should not be on TV, radio, or in print.

I hope none of you support him.
