The growing one word problem of the 2008 election

admin @ October 31, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
There are few things that can be named that are the bane of not only multiple Presidents of the past, but the current and future President as well. Perhaps the most serious issue is the most complicated as well. Iran.
In one word I describe a key exporter of oil, a terrorist supporting […]

Don’t ban Dihydrogen monoxide, pick a President

Written by Michael Vass
I’m on a bit of a Penn & Teller kick today (used clips from their program in a few posts found at Real Simple Blog, All American Blog, Black Entertainment USA and Vass) so bear with me.
Given that, I noticed a simple thought. Sometimes what you hear is not what you […]

Who has the best plan for your health?

admin @ October 24, 2007 # One Comment

Written by Michael Vass
Everyone knows what the hot buttons are in this 2008 election. Few things are spoken about except immigration, healthcare, and Iraq not in that order. Yet it has only been recently that cohesive comments, and parts of actual plans, have been announced by the leading candidates.
To that end I found a list […]

Stephen Colbert for President - sort of

admin @ October 23, 2007 # 2 Comments

Written by Michael Vass
I’ve mentioned that I would present an unbiased view of all the Presidential candidates. I said I would attempt to provide as much information and resources as possible to allow every American citizen the means to decide who has the best plan and outlook for America after the election in November 2008. […]

Presidential candidate descriptions with levity

admin @ October 22, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
For those tired of the wordy, political, often ham-fisted descriptions of the various candidates, I have found a much shorter and average joe styled summary. I won’t say it’s comprehensive, nor overly informative, but it is another view. You may enjoy it, or just laugh. Either way I thank Mishmash.com for making […]

More on the candidates tax plans

admin @ October 22, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
As you may recall I have been providing various tools, charts, and polls that can help you decide which candidate is the most inline with your thoughts and goals. It’s been a lot of information. And while I will continue to seek out this information, I want to mention a bit about […]

A quick thought on the Florida Republican debate

admin @ October 22, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
Am I the only one to notice that the test group used by Fox News to rate the Republican candidates on the Florida debate were all White? Not one African American or Hispanic in the group. What is that about?
Why is everything the Republican Party is doing in these debates seems to […]

Will political ads buy your vote?

admin @ October 17, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
As we approach of the primaries and then enter the Presidential race of 2008 in earnest, more Americans are beginning to pay real attention to who the candidates are. It’s given that there have been multiple debates on each political side, and many organizations have made standpoints on issues they believe are […]

The distraction color provides

admin @ October 16, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
Sometimes you learn something useless and you wonder, why in the world anyone would ever bother to consider the subject you read. If it was a waste of time to read how much worse was it to write, or even research. I’ll give you an example.
Imagine pomegranate red, peacock blue, buttercup yellow, […]

What choice is there for President in 2008?

admin @ October 15, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
I was reading through the various blogs about the Presidential candidates, as I do on a daily basis and I found an interesting thing. Everyone is upset about the Presidential candidates of 2008. That’s Democrat, Republican, Independent and whatever else you choose to call yourself.
It’s an accomplishment devoid of cheer.
Republicans are upset […]

Where will taxes go after 2008

admin @ October 12, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
Death and taxes. The 2 things that everyone is guaranteed to encounter in life, as the saying goes. There isn’t anything anyone can do about the first, science fiction plots aside. But there is a lot that can happen with the first.
Presidential candidates know it. In fact they count on it. They […]

What happens when emotions rule politics

admin @ October 11, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
Some people truly scare me. I mean they are just terrifying. Here is one case, where we see a lopsided, targeted attack against Republican candidates. But if you care to read the comments it’s apparent that this individual not only dislikes Republicans, but also Democrats, Congress and basically very politician since perhaps […]

Insane reasons to pick a President

admin @ October 10, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
If you have never worried about politics before, if you never really paid attention to Presidential primaries and nominations, start. If you don’t you will be very afraid once the nominees are finally selected.
I say this because I just read possibly the worst reasons I have ever heard for anyone to be […]

The stars know who will be President

admin @ October 8, 2007 # 2 Comments

Written by Michael Vass
Well I’ve covered many different aspects of the Presidential candidates. I’ve shown charts and online polling among other aspects of the candidates. But this is something you really may not have thought of.
For those that find it of importance, and just an interesting side thought for the rest of us, I present […]

Grab the remote

admin @ October 5, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
Speaking of our choices on who will lead the nation on January 2009, I read a very interesting piece from Jon Schwedler. The point of the piece is the lackluster ideals promoted by the leading candidates and the desire in the nation for none of the above. As obvious as it may […]

Pick a stance on Immigration

admin @ October 5, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
Immigration. It’s a powerful word and it is one of the key issues of the Presidential election of 2008. There is no good answer to what to do, or at least none has been offered to date.
There are those that want to lift all restrictions and accept all illegal immigrants (or undocumented […]

Republicans forget, Democrats fabricate, America may be in trouble

admin @ October 2, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Written by Michael Vass
When you think of the President of the United States, you think of the leader of the nation. The key here is leader of the nation, not a political party or a portion of the population but everyone. That is what the highest elected position in America demands.
Given that thought, one would […]
