Bad Grammar We Can Believe In

You know, the phrase 'Change We Can Believe In,' is actually some pretty poor grammar for a supposedly Harvard educated guy. You'd think he'd know better than to dangle that preposition way out there like that.

If this is an example of an affirmative action Ivy League education, what, pray tell, can we expect from an affirmative action presidency?

When Sen. Obama said he would take the high road in his campaign, he must have been referring to the cocaine induced high of his school days.

"You know, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig." ... "You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called 'change,' it's still gonna stink after eight years."
-- Barack Obama; Sept. 2008

Unity candidate?

At this point, Obama must apologize for his gaffe, condemn the sexist coverage of Sarah Palin in the mainstream media and totally reject the support of hard left blogs for spewing divisive hate speech and vitriol.

UPDATE: The McCain campaign posted a video on YouTube in response. However, CBS forced the ad's removal. Here it is: Web Ad: Lipstick

Media Armegeddon: The Culture War's Decisive Battle has Begun

Writing today in The American Thinker, Herbert E. Meyer says that in every war there is one decisive battle. This battle doesn't end the war; a great deal of hard fighting lies ahead. But in retrospect it's the moment when one side's ultimate victory -- and the other side's ultimate defeat -- were sealed. In our Civil War this decisive battle was Gettysburg. In World War II, it was Midway.

Unexpectedly -- perhaps even astonishingly -- this year's presidential campaign is shaping up as the decisive battle in the Culture War that's been tearing apart our country for decades.

On one side are the Traditionalists. We believe that church and State should be separate, but that religion should remain at the center of life. We are a Judeo-Christian culture, which means we consider those ten things on a tablet to be commandments, not suggestions. We believe that individuals are more important than groups, that families are more important than governments, that children should be raised by their parents rather than by a village, and that marriage is a sacred relationship between a man and a woman. We believe that rights must be balanced by responsibilities, that personal freedom is a privilege we must be careful not to abuse, and that the rule of law cannot be set aside when it becomes inconvenient.

We believe in economic liberty, property rights, and in giving purposeful and industrious entrepreneurs the elbowroom they need to start and run their businesses -- and thus create jobs for all the rest of us -- with a minimum of government interference. We recognize that people in other countries see things differently, and we are tolerant of their views. But we believe that despite its imperfections the United States is history's most blessed country, and when attacked we will defend this country with our lives.

Meyer concludes that this election isn't really about these issues. This election is about who we are.
