Why I’m supporting Obama. Part Something in an ongoing series.

Under the McCain plan, the rich get richer, and everyone else gets… All their services cut to pay for rich-folk taxcuts. And since the economy depends on everyone not-rich pooling their resrouces to defend themselves against the depredations of the rich, we’re screwed under McCain’s plan.

Unless anyone thinks the traders at Lehman Brothers, brokers at Enron etc couldn’t have spared a few hundred thousand of their millions.

Of course, under Obama’s plan, all but the top .1% of income earners do better than today. For the other 99.9% of us, Well, we get to buy things to fuel the economy. Neat, huh?

There’s only one problem with this ad…

The name “planned parenthood” will turn off a lot of people…

What we know about Palin: She’s Anti Choice, has no problem using political power for personal reasons, hates Polar Bears, and is a creationist.

We also know (see photo above) that she would look fabulous with a nose ring…

What a wonderful world…

Living in a State that is reliably blue– a City that is pretty much synonymous with “Liberal”– we don’t get campaign ads. This one strikes me as pretty good.

Remember: Republicans are bad for the economy. Consistently, historically, thoroughly. If your goal is to destroy government credibility, that you would naturally support Republican politicians. If your goal is the welfare of the American People, however, you’ll be voting for the Democrat…

McCain’s campaign is encouraging trolls. They’re literally giving trolls “points” for leaving pro-McCain talking points in the comments section of various blogs. Their view of the blogworld is fairly skewed, they list Glen Reynolds (Instapundit) as neither right, nor left, nor moderate, but “other” (he’s a fairly doctrinaire conservative).

This isn’t the worst idea in the world– many large companies employ trolls to get their own word out. Its just so transparent and icky that I can’t think it will do much good. Yes, this blog is a bit annoyed not to be included on the hit list.
