BTW….. the am & evening news are reporting about McCain’s low poll numbers here in AZ….. calling the race a “dead heat” with the latest numbers - McCain 44% & Obama 40% with margin of error 4%….. AND they are reporting McCain’s poor fundraising….. and how the Repugs are pissed that McCain NEVER shows up to work….. Oh it sure is fun….. I think we get fairer reporting here than on MSNBC…

I wonder if the DHS is going tos start checking all the campaign’s devices when they go overseas now:U.S. agents can seize travelers’ laptops: report

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. federal agents have been given new powers to seize travelers’ laptops and other electronic devices at the border and hold them for unspecified periods the Washington Post reported on Friday.

Under recently disclosed Department of Homeland Security policies, such seizures may be carried out without suspicion of wrongdoing, the newspaper said, quoting policies issued on July 16 by two DHS agencies.

Agents are empowered to share the contents of seized computers with other agencies and private entities for data decryption and other reasons, the newspaper said.

DHS officials said the policies applied to anyone entering the country, including U.S. citizens, and were needed to prevent terrorism

Creepy campaign poster?

The McCain campaign’s Acme self-hoisting petard is replicating faster than hydra heads in a Herculean sword fight. This may very well be the most inane, vapid and useless attempt at parody gone flat that I’ve seen in a long, long time. Jeebus.

LOL! Thanks for badly needed end of the week laughs Christy. Now back to follow all the links.

So…what’s your suggestion for the McCain campaign theme song

a nice little war youtube perhaps

“two faces have I” by ? Christie?

OT; McCains been talking a lot about how safe nucler is; CNN has article about sub leaking all over the pacific and http://www.spiegel.de/internat.....67,00.html

nice song, but it’s by Citizen Kings

this one’s a little sideways - maybe a message from Obama to JohnnyMac:

Blame it on the Bossa Nova

– Creepy campaign poster? Oh yeah.

Oh my god. All war, all the time. And the slogan - peace is born of wisdom - sounds nearly biblical.

Very creepy indeed.

“Oh! ye’ll take the high road and
I’ll take the low road,
And I’ll be in Scottsdale afore ye”

Funky Western Civilization by TonioK

Fool on the hill

Day after day, alone on the hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still.
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he’s just a fool.
And he never gives an answer …..

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down.
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning around.

Well on his way, his head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices, talking perfectly loud.
But nobody ever hears him,
Or the sound he appears to make.
And he never seems to notice …..

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down.
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning around.

And nobody seems to like him,
They can tell what he wants to do.
And he never shows his feelings,

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down.
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning around.

“Running To Stand Still”? “Send In The Clowns”? “I Can’t Get Started”? “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door”? “Ain’t Too Proud To Beg”? “Reelin’ In The Years”? “What A Fool Believes”? “Don’t You Worry ‘Bout A Thing”? “What Is And What Should Never Be”? “It’s The End Of The World As We Know It”? “Somewhere Down The Crazy River”? “Shiver Me Timbers”?

Brilliant!

So…what’s your suggestion for the McCain campaign theme song

American Idiot

Got away from me . . .

Blame it on the Bossa Nova revisited as Blame it on Barack Obama

it’d be fine but I really don’t want to ruin my appreciation of any beatle song by associating it with any republican

Ah, Psychotic Reaction HAS to be one of the options.

Hi All.

I saw this post over at Jake Tapper’s ABC by JAB:

Let’s see. Today we learned that we have the highest unemployment in four years. One big oil company has already announced the largest quarterly profit in U.S. History. Ordinary Americans are losing their jobs, homes, pensions and health care. They are and paying large amounts for gasoline with the oil companies wanting more drilling rights to continue raising the price and the profits. People are having trouble paying for their children’s education. Meanwhile corporation executives are getting huge golden parachutes. The U.S. is losing in Afghanistan and spending ten billion a month in Iraq, and this year we will have an almost 500 billion dollar projected deficit. If I were a rich Republican running for office and I owned eight houses, a private airplane, and millions of dollars in beer company profits, I’d try to switch the subject to the Old Testament times and Moses too.

I thought this was a brillian post that the Progressives can try to keep pushing forward.

Going for subtle here: Keith Urban - Stupid Boy

John Prine’s “Your Flag Decal Won’t Get You Into Heaven Anymore.”

You have to go back to McCain’s almost-failed primary campaign to get a sense of his incompetence. He won because he was the Last Asshole Standing. The other candidates self-destructed before he did. He’s self-destructing now, before the eyes of the press. Must be very tough for Brooksie at the Times to swallow. His only chance is to nominate Lieberman as running mate. Sequel to Grumpy Old Men.

And for Cindy, INXS’ “Suicide Blonde“

John McCain’s answer to whether he is too old.

mwee heee — “Last Asshole Standing.”

I will go with the obvious yet not to be spoken:

John Fogerty. The Old Man is down the road

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-b63FdW8wiY

Have folks watched the ad in that first link in the post yet? I just sat here with my mouth open trying to figure out what drunken stupor someone must have been in to suggest that — and what the entire campaign must be huffing to put it into production. Are they utterly daft — or just assholes? Or am I being too critical of what I think is a crap ad on the heels of a series of crap ads from McCain?

Ooops — second link in the post — forgot I had that link to Swopa’s post in there first…

I think in the campaign poster they’re trying to make his hair look like George Washington.

The little planes flying around his head look like either bats or stars in a cartoon when the character runs into something.

Obama=Moses=Paris=Brittney=?
Stupid

I have to agree. That is stunningly bad but has great pictures of Obama. The campaign is being run by teenagers who think this is cute, I guess.

not a song, but …. McCain has lost touch with reality.

I’m a Loser

3 Doors Down

No matter how dazed and confused the McCain campaign keep in mind the American public is beyond dazed and confused. They are outright ignorant. Ignorance is what wins elections in the U.S. of A. That and voter suppression and Diebold.

Yes, but the song kinda gives praise to the “old man”, doesn’t it?

I’m hearing Neil Young lamenting the ‘Old man lying by the side of the road.’

What would Charlton Heston think about being in this McCain attack video with Obama?

Britney’s revenge…heh:

speaking of Tom Waits - What’s he Building?

This is the kind of shit no self-respecting 527 would have put out in prior years. They have forgotten the first rule of teevee, and I think it’s Karl Rove’s rule: television is all image, not words. Most teevee ads — especially political ads! — are watched MUTEd. The images in this ad are very favorable to Obama.

They are idiots.

That’s Don’t Let It Bring You Down.

In politics you never want to become a joke and McC is almost there. Of course, for us he always was but this week has just be pathetic for him.

But wait….Laura Ing. was telling us this morning how much Obama is falling in Fla…Mc back in the race, polls closeness makes invalid to call. What say you?

Then, hearing Mc this afternoon that we know Obama’s statements were racist because his campaign has retracted those statements. True?

Of course, Mc also rejected a comment about FactCheck. org. b/c he wasn’t going to comment on some “blog” he “doesn’t know anything about.” Take that, you fact Check.

Emphasis on “Down the Road”…:-)

Middle of the Road?

From TPM Election Central:

[McCain} Blamed Obama for bringing up the issue of race in the campaign, and repeatedly said that Obama had “retracted” his charge that McCain is using race. It was obvious by the repetition of “retracted” that this was a cooked up talking point, and it was apparently a reference to the fact that the Obama campaign said it didn’t think McCain had used race in the campaign.

But this wasn’t a “retraction” at all: The Obama camp hasn’t conceded he said that in the first place.

OT - Just got a Robocall from Steve Austria who’s the GOP option for our local Rep. It’s amusing, because 240-696-7345 is a Maryland number (what, there’s nobody in Ohio low enough?) with a reputation for annoying political calls. And he he starts off griping about democrats. Yeah, we’re going negative.

Well, to all the fine suggestions, I can only add one:

Helter skelter (The Beatles)

When I get to the bottom
I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and turn
and I go for a ride
Till I get to the bottom and I see you again
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Tell me tell me come on tell me the answer

Go helter skelter
helter skelter

Look out
Helter skelter

helter skelter
Yeah, hu, hu

Ewwww…now that brings up some mental images of McCain that I’d rather not have… *g*

New McCain ad. Now Obama is MOSES!!!

From my cold dead hands.

-G

They are pretty cold at the moment.

He, and the entire Rethuglican Party, should embrace Ladytron’s “Destroy Everything You Touch”. It even has this military march cadence, give it a listen:

Destroy everything you touch today
Destroy me this way
Anything that may desert you
So it cannot hurt you

You only have to look behind you
At who’s undermined you
Destroy everything you touch today
Destroy me this way

Everything you touch you don’t feel
Do not know what you steal
Shakes your hand
Takes your gun
Walks you out of the sun

What you touch you don’t feel
Do not know what you steal
Destroy everything you touch today
Please destroy me this way

Damn. If McCain recognizes Moses, he’s even older than we thought.

The McCain camps gambit this week was to innoculate themselves from racism by calling Obama a race card player.

Scumbags.

Thanks…how convoluted is that? I think McC is dangerous to our mental health. He thinks he makes sense…scary.

I just heard these remarks again. What the hell is he saying was retracted?

One more - Jilted John by Jilted John:

Oh, she is cruel and heartless
to pack me for Gordon
Just cos he’s better looking than me
Just cos he’s cool and trendy

But I know he’s a moron, Gordon is a moron
Gordon is a moron, Gordon is a moron

Here we go, two three four

Oh she’s a slag and he’s a creep
She’s a tart, he’s very cheap
She is a slut, he thinks he’s tough
She is a bitch, he is a puff
Yeah yeah, it’s not fair
Yeah yeah, it’s not fair

(I’m so upset)

I’m so upset, I’m so upset, yeah yeah

Curious…A new book is coming out that paints McCain as the ‘anointed’ of the GOPrs. It was accepted by the US Copyrights office before the July 4th weekend. With the blanket authorization of the just passed FISA, who’s to say that McCain does not have his hand in the cookie jar…

Title is: GENE X and the PORTRAITS OF THE LIBERAL BLOGGER

(2 volumes in one).

Stay tuned!

Late to the comments today because I had to go to the airport.

The Zappa link above talks about Zappa’s “Abnuceals Emuukha Electric Orchestra” and performances in September 1975 at Royce Hall. I actually attended one of those performances. It was amazing and yes, I am that old.

Thanks to Christy for finding the link.

Feeling wet blankety after listening to Mrs. Greenspan on Nightly News pontificate that McCain has Obama on the defensive…it’s “out there” now. The Villagers have ruled.
