by Frank James
The autopsies of Sen. John McCain’s failed presidential bid continue to roll in.
This morning, National Public Radio’s “Morning Edition” aired an interview with John Weaver, a former McCain strategist who left the campaign last year when the Republican presidential nominee’s campaign first imploded during the primaries.
Among the McCain campaign’s mistakes, according to Weaver, [...]
And Now For Something Completely Different
John Cleese is not a conservative. Now the hard question: Does European disdain help or hurt McCain at this point?
UPDATE: Meanwhile in Kansas, the Democratic Senate candidate, Jim Slattery, has broken new ground by cutting an ad that depicts Sen. Pat Roberts pissing on voters. I can’t wait for the next ad, featuring “Number 2.”

We were driving down the street this morning and we noticed three men putting in a retaining wall. We saw a couple of shovels and a wheelbarrow. There were stacks of those pre-formed hex-shaped concrete ’stones.’ The men had dug out the bank and were placing the stones in place. No more mowing of a [...]

Congressman John Lewis has condemned the McCain Campaign for ‘…sowing the seeds of hate and division..” and he mentioned the segregationist Governor George Wallace. John Lewis is characterized as a ‘measured man’ – careful with his language… There are few men in Congress as respected as John Lewis.
This writer believes that John McCain has [...]
McCain’s RNC speech – text & video, 2008
I don’t mind a good fight. For reasons known only to God, I’ve had quite a few tough ones in my life. But I learned an important lesson along the way. In the end, it matters less that you can fight. What you fight for is the real test.I fight for Americans. I fight for [...]

Well now, John Cusack is up in arms. Cusack is that actor who used to make the chic flicks that even the men enjoyed watching. My favorite is ‘Serendipity.” But I like his latest work also. Check this out:
My first take was wondering what had gotten into John Cusack. I had never seen him as [...]

Son,
Humor is the essence of sanity. Check out these videos. Humor has been my salvation, relieving me of the insane conflict of being a human – aware of myself and others – and aware of faith as both inspiration and superstition. Christian jokes abound – fueling awareness of human conflict. But what is humor – [...]
John Wayne talks about America
Son,
When I was growing up John Wayne was the great American Hero. He embodied everything that it was to be a real man, to be a real patriot, to have honor and to honor tradition. Who are the heroes of today’s youth?
John Wayne was replaced by John Lennon. Then Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger came [...]

Son,
Jimmy Dean was singing metaphorically about the New England Patriots. “There was only one left to save.” Big Bad John.
This is the story of the Super Bowl for this year – will they come out of the mine, or not.

2Feb2008 | Ohg Rea Tone | 0 comments | ContinuedThe John McCain Shelter for Abused Conservatives
John McCain has brought sanity back into the Republican Party. McCain is the realistic optimist of Ronald Reagan. The Reagan Revolution has been hijacked by abusive personalities who hope only for power and control. When an abused spouse cries out for help we provide an Abuse Shelter. We provide a place of sanctuary. We provide [...]

Son,
The Republican debate is on CNN tonight. It is being hosted by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. John McCain, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, and Mike Huckabee are participating. I missed a few minutes because of a black tie affair that I could not get out of.
The question is what about 100 year involvement in Iraq.

Caroline Kennedy or Michael Reagan
Son,
Presidents have sons and daughters. Sometimes the children grow up to engage politics, sometimes they don’t. Think of Caroline Kennedy, daughter of John F. Kennedy, and an image comes to mind. Think of Michael Reagan, son of Ronald Reagan, and another image comes to mind – hopefully not for long.
Do the children of past Presidents [...]
McCains wins Florida – huge for his candidacy
Son,
Based on exit polling – John McCain has scored a huge victory. His totals look like they will come in around 31%. It is huge because this give confidence to the people with the money.

John McCain on Iraq Strategy – Meet The Press
Son,
I am in no way an advocate of the war in Iraq. With that said our country is engaged in a War. A war whose outcome has serious consequence for America. John McCain is a man who understands war.
Mr. McCain is not a war monger. He is not a cruel man. Mr. McCain is a [...]
A Sense of Hope, A Sense of Destiny…. Kennedy
Son,
Inspiring events are happening in America. Civil Rights, Social Justice, workers, disabled, education, voters rights, quality Health Care, Senator Edward Kennedy. There is a movement afoot, and the Republicans will not be able to stop it.
Senator Kennedy is endorsing Mr. Obama as I write and I can barely keep up.
“…Courage, insight, bold understanding, power of [...]
What’s his name, that Black Golfer?
Son,
There is some guy playing golf like it is nobody’s business. I am getting old and cannot remember names very well. But I will try to recount some of the legends. Then I’ll tell you about the new guy.
That guy Jack could hit a nickle on the green. Gary was a player. Arnie palmed the [...]
