Today, in Colorado Springs, John McCain and Sarah Palin handed out thousands of flags rescued from the trash thrown away by worshippers at Obama’s coronation in Denver.

They were being proudly waved by the more than 10,000 who crowded into a hangar for a McCain/Palin rally.





So much for the “We love our country too” crowd.

Drudge is reporting that the RNC viewer numbers were…

FOXNEWS 9.2 MILLION
NBC 8.7 MILLION
ABC: 6.0 MILLION
CBS: 5.3 MILLION
CNN 4.8 MILLION
MSNBC 2.5 MILLION

and more than any other network! 

I’m just sayin’…

There have been several contributors to SAB who have argued in heated and even vitrolic language that it is somehow racist to even suggest that there are substantial numbers of African-Americans who will support Senator Obama - no matter what - because he is one.

Oprah has probably settled that issue once and for all by her refusal to have Governor Sarah Palin, John McCain’s running-mate, on her show before the election.

Here is the nation’s most successful black woman who has twice had Barack Obama on her show and publicly campaigned for him, refusing to have a white woman who may threaten his prospects on her show.

There will come the same bloggers trying desperately to defend Oprah and paint this pig with every shade of lipstick they can find, but at the end of the day… it will still be a pig, and a racist pig at that.

WOW!!!!!

Michael Moore - liberal mouthpiece and sleezy film-maker - has already opined that hurricane Gustav is God’s will aimed at the GOP convention - as though Moore actually believes in The Almighty.

But his is only the opening salvo of what will become a Democrat litany: “Katrina victims get their revenge.”, etc., ad naseum.

Should Gustav make landfall with anything approaching the ferocity of Katrina, people will die, lives and property will be severely damaged and the Democrats will jump for joy.

And make no mistake, even if Gustav is reduced to a mild wind-storm, the MSM will still use it as an excuse to ignore the Twin Cities convocation.

Downed power-lines and fallen palm trees will be used to trump McCain and Palin’s moment.

Thus, if all this happens, the GOP and John McCain, along with his running-mate, Sarah Palin, will be put to the test. Can the maverick from Arizona and the barracuda from Alaska rise to the occasion?

Here’s a hint:  While Barack Obama and Joe Biden are wowing the locals in rural Ohio high school football stadiums, McCain and Palin are making their way to the eye of the storm!

But then, that’s exactly what real leaders are supposed to do, isn’t it? 

Look for Obama and friends to scurry south soon, following in the wake of a man who didn’t hesitate to interrupt his schedule - in which we see the clear difference between a leader who acts, and an opportunist who reacts.

And is anyone surprised that the “liberator” has morphed into the conquerer?

I had a thought last night… this may be the first election I know of where all four candidates can return to another government post if they lose.

Thus, Sarah Palin, whose strengths in this race are vastly impressive, would return to being…

The Governor of Alaska.

The Commander of The Alaska National Guard.

A Former Mayor.

A Mom who not only believes in the right to life, but practices it.

A solid conservative thinker.

A fiscal conservative.

A problem-solver who believes our energy crisis can and will be eased by drilling here and now.

An un-hysterical climate realist.

An ardent supporter of the Second Amendment.

A woman whose life is proof that talent is recognized in the GOP and talked about by the DNC.

A leader with proven energy, experience, resolve and toughness.

Which is why John McCain and Sarah Palin will NOT be returning to their old jobs!

Mr. Obama, on the other hand, may finally get to be an actual senator, learning on the job next year.

In what may prove to be a chilling preview of life under an Obama presidency, Obama’s campaign team is in full attack-mode to shut down Stan Kurtz, the popular conservative talk-show host on Chicago’s WGN.

Could this be step 1 to a new “Fairness Doctrine”?

Today’s Gallup poll results - right in the middle of the Democratic Convention is great news for republicans!

For the first time, John McCain is leading Barack Obama among registered voters by 46% to 44%.

But wait, there’s more!  87% of registered republicans say that they strongly support McCain, while 78% of democrats make the same claim about their candidate.

An event that would be too horrible to contemplate.

If John McCain wins, die-hards can grouse that he did it by abandoning his base.

If McCain loses, die-hards can crow that he lost because he abandoned his base.

Either way… for die-hards… it’s a win/win!!

Just a thought for a lovely Saturday morning here on the right coast.

A caller:  “Why should I vote for this guy?” [John McCain]

Rush:  “That’s easy… two words… ‘The Messiah’.  [pause for effect] We - can’t - let - Barack - Obama - get - anywhere - near - the - White - House!”

Exactly what many of us on SAB have been saying. Not voting is a vote for Obama!

Only in America could this happen.

... well, at least some do.  Check it out at
