BARBARA'S DAILY BUZZFLASH MINUTE

Hmm, ‘favors for campaign donors,’ not as alien to John McCain as he would like the public to believe!!!! “Sen. John McCain championed legislation that will let an Arizona rancher trade remote grassland and ponderosa pine forest here for acres of valuable federally owned property that is ready for development, a land swap that now stands to directly benefit one of his top presidential campaign fundraisers.” No matter what McCain says, corruption comes in many forms, and includes favors for funds!

* * *

From the McCain campaign, a Freudian perception: "He used the words 'losing his bearings intentionally,' a not particularly clever way of raising John McCain's age as an issue.” I want to point out that the McCain campaign was the first to mention “age”, in this most recent “dust-up” that has their boxers or briefs in a knot!!! Apparently McCain and his guys are super hypersensitive about how really old John McCain is in his run for the presidency, otherwise why in this world would they equate Obama’s comment regarding “bearings” to mean “age”!!! By creating controversy and feigning indignation, they are trying to drown out McCain’s offensive remarks, actually the lies McCain threw out there regarding Hamas!!!

* * *

“MICHAEL CROWLEY, SENIOR EDITOR, ‘THE NEW REPUBLIC’: ‘McCain now, for the first time, has started getting in on the victim act ... now McCain sort of wants to get in on the action, saying, they are calling me old.’” Actually McCain is trying to cash in on his age, and garner the retired citizen’s vote, by becoming a “victim”! He and the members of his campaign are the ones making much ado about age old nothing!

* * *

So he calls it the “straight talk express” does he -- I imagine John McCain is attempting to project an “on the bus” kind of integrity and image that Paul Wellstone possessed! I have studied Paul Wellstone, and “believe me” McCain, “you are no” Paul Wellstone! Paul Wellstone could be counted on to express his opinion and stand up for the American people no matter the consequences politically! Paul Wellstone was a very rare individual in Washington’s political circles, he was a true statesman!

* * *

Can anyone say “media hog”? Mitt Romney will do and/or say anything to maintain a media presence! Would someone please tell him his 15 minutes of fame is over, and that he’s only making more of an ass out of himself than he did before he lost the primaries! Romney would be doing himself, as well as America, a service if he’d just go back into obscurity!!!

* * *

I am relieved to see that most of the people who proudly call themselves Democrats want no part of the racism that the Clintons and the Clinton campaign is pedaling in a last ditch effort to win a race she’s already lost!
