McCain or Obama? OBAMA Of COURSE!

It is baffling to us after eight years of Bush, how anybody can seriously think of pulling the Republican lever for President. It is not simply that George "Herbert Hoover" Bush has put the U.S. economy into a coma, or that he has plunged this country into a senseless, endless, catastrophic war in Iraq; it is that he is not even dimly aware of his horrendous mistakes. He reminds one of the Bourbons of Old: "They never learned anything; and they never forget anything."

John McCain, Bush's strongest acolyte, seems more "McCarthy" than McCain with his jingoistic attacks on Obama. In the same vein, Ms. Palin has become "Ms. Apalling." Three cheers for Mr. Obama's intelligence and coolness under fire. He is one of the best Democratic nominees in history.

McCain claims Teddy Roosevelt as his hero. There is a big difference, however, between Roosevelt's "bully pulpit" and McCain's "pulpit bully."


OF COURSE OBAMA!

 
Peace Now is the mission of this blog.  Political action is the medium.  With the war in Iraq still raging and 2008 an election year, the possibility for dramatic political change exists if the opportunity is seized.  Bush's bungling on the war is breathtaking.  His failures on everything else, from Kyoto to Katrina, are catastrophic.  He is afflicted with reverse Midas.  Administration fiascos have become so commonplace, Calamity George has replaced Calamith Jane.  Peace Now is a sleeping giant in this country.  This blog will attempt to wake him up.  The anti-war movement has been anemic and ineffective, and that needs to change.  This blog hopes to do just that.
