A SHORT TAKE ON RESPECT

Friday, October 31st, 2008

IF YOU SCRATCH A REPUBLICAN, ALMOST ANY REPUBLICAN, YOU WILL UNCOVER A POLITICAL DIRTY TRICKSTER
I have never agreed with Senator John McCain on most issues. I am a liberal Democrat, and he is a conservative Republican. There is very little common ground between us other than the fact that we both profess to […]

A SHORT TAKE ON RACISM AND RON PAUL

DISCLAIMER: THE MANAGEMENT OF RECOVERING LIBERAL WISHES TO STATE THAT THERE IS NOTHING IN THIS SHORT TAKE THAT IMPLIES THAT RON PAUL IS A RACIST. YOU WILL ONLY GET THAT IMPRESSION IF YOU DON’T ACTUALLY READ THIS ARTICLE.

A SHORT TAKE ON THE TRUTH

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

AND MAYBE THAT’S THE SADDEST PART OF ALL

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

OSAMA HAS GIVEN HIS ENDORSEMENT TO JOHN McCAIN. AIN’T THAT PEACHY?
John McCain may have gotten the biggest endorsement of the campaign today, but the question is, does he really want it?
According to the Associated Press, it seems that al Qaida has put out the word that it likes Senator McCain. It really, really, […]

SHORT TAKES ON OVERCONFIDENCE

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

WE NEED TO BE WARY
In 2000, a few years after a friend and I started our first political Blog, we Democrats were certain that Al Gore would become the 43rd President of the United States. We were wrong. We didn’t understand the impact of voter nullification. We never figured that over 100,000 […]

SENATOR McCAIN WAS A FIGHTER PILOT WHO MANAGED TO GET SHOT DOWN 4 TIMES BEFORE BEING TAKEN PRISONER

MAYBE THERE ARE MORE JOE THE PLUMBERS IN AMERICA THAN WE’D LIKE TO THINK
