Oh How They Love Each Other

Joe Biden: "I don't think there's a prejudiced bone in John McCain's body."

McCain Tries to Put Out a Fire He Started

Ruling Class Media Turns Against the Republicans

Finally! Though it's been evident for about two years now that there's been a major shift of ruling class support away from the Republicans (who've fouled things up not a little for the American Empire), I've been quite disappointed so far this election cycle with the timidity of ruling class attacks on the conservatives. Remember Mark Foley in 2006? Why haven't the institutions of ruling opinion begun trotting out the skeleton's in the Republican closet yet this time around? While I don't have an answer for that, I think it is has finally begun.

CNN has regularly been carrying "Fact Check" segments where it subjects McCain campaign claims about Obama to empirical verification, where they typically come up quite thin. The latest regards Obama and gun control.

McCain's campaign hasn't helped itself by going on the attack against the ruling class media, calling the New York Times "a pro-Obama organization that every day attacks Sen. McCain, attacks Gov. Palin, and excuses Sen. Obama.” The irony here is that there is a rational kernel to McCain and co's conspiracy theories of the liberal media. The media's owners have made a real shift to the Democrats, and the Republicans are finally beginning to pay.

Sarah Palin: Anti-woman trogolodyte

Here is one of the more appalling nuggets discovered about McCain's VP: as Mayor of Wasilla, she oversaw the policy of having rape victims pay for their rape kits (that can run as high as $1000). See multiple sources here and here.

The fact that the Obama camp can't muster any kind of response is simply disgusting. The Democrat's are showing themselves to be impotent to this neanderthal. The election is still theirs to lose, but if the so-called "party of the people" cannot figure out how to win in November, the coffin in which the Republicans should have been buried might see a different occupant.
