RIGHT-WING HYPOCRITS HIT BY LIGHTNING, THREE TIMES

MCCAIN TRIES & FAILS TO EXPLOIT HURRICANE VICTIMS; CONVENTION CURTAILED; VP BAD MOM, LIAR


Tame Corporate Media Spin All This As "A Good Thing"

Yeah. Right. Those "highly moral" born-agains & evangelicals, you know, the vast majority(?) of Americans(?) that are Republican(?) Jesus freaks, will love Palin & McCain even more now that they know Palin's family doesn't use birth control or STD-protection of any kind, and no sex-education, either. Of course, that will trump the self-righteous bible-belters' disapproval of pre-marital sex, teen immorality, and parents who don't know or can't control what's going on in their own kids lives; or in their heads, for that matter, right?

No shock and awe over Palin lying by omission or commission to McCain's vetters, either, hunh? Or any discomfort and disbelief that McCain actually knew in advance that his VP's minor child was going to have a kid out of wedlock? Why, it just shows that the whole gang of 'em are human after all, and in need of spiritual guidance from, say, some guy with a big make-believe church on TV. Wait for it. McCain may have to become "born again" himself after all this. Shall we gather at the river? Careful where you baptise, I'll be puking. Best go upstream, brethren.

Speaking of morality, and water, and revolting spectacles, how 'bout John & Cindy McCain & Alaska's "Neglectful Mom of The Year" rushing to Missisippi in Cindy's private plane ("C*NT" ONE), down to the Delta where Obama has traction, (where McCain's family owns, or owned slaves), to pretend to be doing something about the various hurricanes Dubya's global warming has caused, while interfering with real preparation, relief and evacuation efforts, WHEW! Thank Gawd there was an extra Senator there, to bloviate at the hurricane. Let's hope he gets some votes out of it, hunh?

After all, he just wanted a chance to show that Repukelickins really do care about reg'l'r folks that're struck by disasters like Hurricane Andrew or Katrina, or the recent Midwestern floods, or the cyclone in Burma, the earthquakes in China, the genocide in Darfur, Zimbabwe, Georgia, etc, etc, etc. Even if they did absolutely nothing right when those disasters occurred. Even if they still don't give a sh*t to this very day about any of the victims and refugees anywhere, like in New Orleans, where new winds & waves are striking neighborhoods that were never rebuilt, overtopping levees that have not been replaced, sending refugees fleeing helter-skelter like in Katrina, which was THREE years ago, yawl. But then, them people was sinful black Democrats, and Gawd punished 'em cause of that, is how yer "born agains & evangelical" sick f*cks see it.

Let's hear how they see Gawd's intervention in their Convention. The one where they pretend to care, to want to help, to be effective in disaster relief, with their "No Big Gummint" bullsh*t.

See, Gawd ain't cooperatin'. The storm has passed Nawlins, mostly. The Repukes won't be able to capitalize on a new disaster. Their thunder has been stolen by the storm, making them its' principle victims. Now, will lightning strike hypocritical right-wing lyin' slut-Mom Sarah "The Barracuda" Palin? If there's a God in Heaven, you better watch out, you blaspheming, Jesus-pimping, anti-christian 'Pukes! What would Jesus do? He's already doin' it, sinners, He's already a-doin' it! They's ANOTHER storm headed right fer vote-rich Florida. Think you can exploit this? Remember, God is always watching. And He doesn't watch FuxSnooze!

"McCain Plans To Make Natural Disaster Backdrop Convention"



THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR
"Palin daughter’s pregnancy shocks GOP convention"
Republicans want to put ANOTHER bastard in the VP's office.

' In a convention already thrown off-kilter by hurricane Gustav, the news that GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s teenage daughter is pregnant has added yet another wrinkle to the proceedings. Palin’s oldest daughter, 17-year-old Bristol, is five months pregnant and will marry the father of the child, Palin and her husband disclosed Monday. The Palins decided to make the announcement to quell Internet rumors that Sarah Palin’s fifth child, four-month-old Trig, is in fact her daughter Bristol’s baby. The Palin announcement reopened the question of how closely GOP presidential candidate John McCain had vetted Palin before selecting her as his running mate, a move that surprised the political world last Friday. If he had not known of the daughter’s pregnancy until now, what would that say about the thoroughness of Senator McCain’s scrutiny – and about Palin’s judgment? Two top McCain advisers, Stephen Schmidt and Mark Salter, told reporters in St. Paul Monday that Palin had indeed informed the campaign of Bristol’s pregnancy during the vetting process, according to the Associated Press. '

THE INTERNATIONAL HERALD-TRIBUNE
"Day of stunning Palin disclosures"
And this was the BEST woman for the job? Don't the 'Pukes have even ONE other woman, just ONE who's not a mess?

' In a day of stunning disclosures, John McCain's running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, said Monday her 17-year-old unmarried daughter was five months pregnant, and it was revealed that an attorney was hired to defend the governor in a probe into the firing of her public safety commissioner. The revelations threatened to steal any remaining thunder from Day One of the Republican National Convention, which already was overshadowed by Hurricane Gustav — and brought unwanted attention to the 44-year-old governor, who has little experience on the national stage. The Republican convention, taking place just three days after McCain named Palin has his running mate, had already been scaled back because of the hurricane. Coming after the randomness of Gustav, the revelations added to the sense of unscriptedness hanging over the convention. The national convention, which a political party counts on to send its candidate surging into the fall campaign, already had been relegated to a distant second to the hurricane on TV, in newspapers and on Internet Web sites. As for the Alaska probe, a Republican-dominated legislative committee is investigating whether Palin dismissed Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan after he refused to fire a state law enforcement official who had divorced Palin's sister.

RADAR ON LINE
"Palin Daughter's Babydaddy: Some Dude Named Levi, Reports Enquirer"
The girl likes a guy in pants. Not just any pants. She's particular. Gotta be Levi's. The VP's daughter loves a guy with a button fly, no new-fangled zippers to figure out. Cheap & easy, that's our girl!

' Make that 2-0 for David Perel. Fresh off his success with the John Edwards story, sources tell Radar that an aggressive 36-hour push by Perel's National Enquirer reporting team forced Alaska Governor and John McCain's vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin to announce that her 17-year-old daughter Bristol is pregnant, an announcement which effectively puts an end to the Internet rumor that Palin had faked her own pregnancy to cover up her daughter's. (Or does it? There are already conspiracy theories that this pregnancy is being faked to dispel the rumors that Trig, Palin's 4-month-old, is really Bristol's child. Kinda crazy, right?) Radar has also learned that the father of Bristol's child, as well as her soon-to-be-husband, is a 17-year-old hockey player named Levi Johnston. '

MARKETWATCH
"Gustav passes New Orleans with levees intact "
Praise the Lord! Uh, well, maybe the other hurricane will get the 'Pukes some votes. Gawd willin'!

' Hurricane Gustav moved past the New Orleans area Monday, and though it still threatened to flood some areas with storm surges, the city's levees and floodwalls apparently braved the worst the storm had to offer with minimal damage. The front end of Gustav was working its way toward northwest Louisiana and had been downgraded to a tropical storm, although there were warnings the storm's back end still featured hurricane-force winds. Gustav hit Louisiana three years and three days after Katrina struck. Katrina created a storm surge from Lake Pontchartrain that shot water into New Orleans' outfall canals and caused levees to fail. Three-fourths of the city was underwater. It's still trying to rebuild. '

WASHINGTON POST
"GOP Opens Convention With An Eye On Gustav"
Republicans desperate to capitalize on human misery. As usual.

' As Hurricane Gustav battered the Gulf Coast, Republicans today completed an enthusiastic but abbreviated first session of their national convention with headlining appearances by the current First Lady and - Republicans hope - her successor. Bush emphasized that "we are all Americans" today and that partisanship should take a back seat. But when she introduced a video compilation of appearances from governors of Gulf Coast states, Bush did mention that "they all happen to be Republicans." '

"Money Trail: What Hurricane? Lobbyists, GOP Party On"
Let them eat cake! Lots of cake!! More cake, please!!! WOO-HOO!!!! It's A Cake-Vention!!!!!!! CAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!!!!

' As residents of New Orleans were fleeing Hurricane Gustav, top Republican party officials donned pink boas and swigged vodka shots at a wild whirl of corporate and lobbyist-paid parties this weekend in Minneapolis-St. Paul. More than a hundred people jammed a Minneapolis restaurant where waiters wore pink wigs and guests wrapped themselves with pink boas, on the weekend before the start of the Republican National Convention. Many corporate sponsors and their lobbyists carried through with plans for lavish entertainment of GOP lawmakers and others despite calls from the campaign of Sen. John McCain that Republicans should tone down the convention festivities. "We will be contacting corporations and others to ask them to be respectful of events in the gulf," McCain campaign manager Rick Davis said Sunday afternoon. Yet, last night lobbyists for the National Rifle Association, Lockheed Martin and the American Trucking Association put on a raucus six-hour party at a downtown bar featuring music by the band "Hookers and Blow." There was no evidence of any actual prostitutes or cocaine. Along the Mississippi last night, corporate lobbyists for the chemical industry were entertaining Ohio Republicans on two large yachts. Sen. George Voinovich (R-OH), one of about 700 guests, said he "could not remember" who paid the costs of the river cruise. Saturday night, 22 big corporations sponsored a pig roast and "booze cruise" for California Congressmen and delegates on Lake Minnetonka, west of Minneapolis. Many delegates at a party Saturday night for GOP convention CEO Maria Cino said they saw no reason to stop the good time because of events in New Orleans. "Everyone goes through hard times," said Wisconsin delegate Jeff Larson. '

"McCain-Palin tour storm zone, stump in Mo."
Better bring your ass-hat, too, McSame. Guess Republican hats aren't American hats. Prob'ly made by political prisoners in China.

' As the Republican Party revamped its national convention, John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin split their attention Sunday between campaigning and showing support for Gulf Coast residents threatened by Hurricane Gustav. "We will put aside our political hats and put on our American hats," McCain told a packed minor league ballpark about 35 miles west of St. Louis. The Arizona senator said the same line when he spoke via satellite to a news conference in St. Paul, where Republicans are gathering to officially nominate him for president. '

"Obama Cancels Speech During Gustav"
Obama does the right thing, as usual.

' Barack Obama canceled a speech in Detroit Monday out of respect for the victims of Hurricane Gustav. “I apologize for this change in plans, but instead of a political speech, I’d like all of us to join together in silent prayer,” he said. '
