This is probaby about the only forum where I'll get a chance to give some adnice (maybe, with a lot of help) to the Obama campaign. This doesn't have anything to do with lipstick, or lapel pins, but on something that matters. On something that is important. And on an issue that affects every American and a place where Obama can bring about real change by simply being elected.

This one looks pretty straighforward. We've been hearing about the wonders of small town life the last few days. As someone who has spent more than a fair bit of time in small town Texas, I know how it gets in some of the smaller places in the bigger states.

And I know how people in those kinds of town talk, and don't talk. So it's not a surprise where this quote comes from.

I saw a quick bit on CNN about something so I decided to do a bit of personal research.

This is really quite funny. See if you can spot the special difference...

It's looks like John McCain's radical pick for VP has vaulted, nay, catapulted his campaign to the top of the "change" platform. Gone is the idea that experience matters, now it's all about being crazy and different.

My congrats to McCain, who had experience as a POW, for catching up to the main theme for what Americans want. Yes, things need to change.

With Palin on the ticket, McCain has guaranteed that something will change with this election. New ground will be crossed, be it in the form of Obama or Palin. This was a masterful political move on his part. Truly, it was. Now both sides are running for history. And for change.

So then the next obvious question, which won't really ever be addressed on corporate TV, as it would take too long to go beyond one word analysis....what is the change offered?

I was just doing a bit of reading about John "Yes, I'm that crazy" McCain's pick for his running mate, Sarah Palin. (that is Newsweeks' interview, here's my previous coverage).

I was reading a bit about her fighting corruption and crime when she came into office, which is no doubt something many will claim to be a strength for her in the campaign.

Then I started to think a bit about Alaska, the type of people there, the type of government there, and a bit of the history of the place.

I spent some time this evening watching the Democratic National Convention in Denver. I saw Hillary's powerful speech and thought she did a very good job of pointing out to her supporters that the worst thing they could do with their bitterness regarding her loss is to turn it into a vote for McCain.

Those are my words, of course, but she made that point very clearly. She made a number of other ones, and had some catchy slogans. That's not the point of this diary. Here I'm trying to make a simple point.

Let's start with everyone's favorite topic...How are we torturing people today? Oh wait...we aren't...

"This government does not torture people. We stick to U.S. law and our international obligations," Bush told reporters in the Oval office. "There are highly trained professionals questioning these extremists and terrorists."

Wait a second...when we we start the "War on Extremism"? When we expand the war to a whole new set of people? I remember declaring the war on "terror" (and therefore "terrorists"), but when did we expand it to a war on "extreme" (and thefore the abovementioned "extremists"?

Repost of a blog covering the stuff in the title. I normally don't do intro text, so this is just filler. I will say that if you read this post all the way to the end, you'll see why the lynching of Don Imus is retarded.

I was just reading a bit about the 400 or so Iraqis that got turned into ground meat the last few days and realized something that seems to have been missed in this whole war discussion.

I woke this morning dreaming of blood and oil. It is no surprise, in retrospect. Much of my reading and thinking of the last four years has revolved around the two topics. Both are incredibly importart to modern life, one because it is the lifeblood of the body human, the other because it is the liefbood of the modern state.

And so I woke thinking...

In this diarly, the author ties together a "method of operation" regarding Dick Cheney's approach to government and how that approach has worked out so far. In one sense, Great. In another, Horribly. The first sense in for Dick Cheney himself. The other sense is for everyone else.

the author has written extensively on the clusterfuck the Bush Administration has made of the Middle East. He is a writer, forensic accountant, and all around interesting chap. He is putting this here because the main story doesn't have an "intro" per se, and copy and pasted it below.
