McCain Impulsive and Often Wrong…By His Own Admission

In a brief moment of truthfulness, John McCain calls his decision-making style “impulsive” and often “wrong”.  I couldn’t agree more…check out this clip from C&L (from the McNeil-Lehrer News Hour).

Peace out.

Okay, back to business…Harper’s last hurah? Obama, Clinton, blah blah blah…

All right, after a nice break from reality…I’m back. Hope all of you had a nice holiday break…

So here are the big ticket items to look out for in ’08…both the US and Canada will go to the polls to cast a ballot for their new national leaders…

1) Up here in the Great White North, our very own ‘Boy From Brazil’ (if you don’t get the reference, see the movie and then continue reading) Prime Minister Stephen Harper has already thrown a carrot to the masses by dropping the GST by a penny…boy, what a great guy – I guess he’s not a Bush-loving, environment destroying jackass after all!

This will undoubtedly get him a certain level of support…but hopefully not enough to get re-elected. Let’s hope that need to reclaim our strong diplomatic reputation on the world stage and the protection of our most precious natural resources (air and fresh water) will win over corporate and monetary greed this time around…

Meanwhile, south of the boarder…

2) (Predictably) Iowans and New Hampshirites (?) selected the two most mediocre candidates the Democrats have to offer…Barack (if I talk like I’m channeling Martin Luther King, I don’t need to talk about real issues) Obama and Hillary (I never saw a corporate sponsor I’d ever say “no” to) Clinton.

Let’s hope for a better showing for Kucinich and Edwards in South Carolina and especially on Super Tuesday – speaking of which…please see the next post about ABC and the corporate media subverting the democratic process in American politics…

Kucinich, the only candidate with enough guts to speak his mind…

That’s right – Dennis Kucinich is The Straight Shooter’s choice for the next President of the United States.

No candidate, Democrat or Republican has fresher ideas than Mr. Kucinich. He also has the guts to speak his mind and take a brave stand on the important issues of the day.

Unlike most of the other candidates, Kucinich isn’t already bought and paid for by one lobby group or another, so he actually stands a chance to make a difference.

For those of you who want to find out more about the man, his impeccable voting record on key issues (including the war in Iraq, global climate change, universal health care for all Americans, etc.) and his uniquely positive vision for the future…stay tuned.

Peace out.
