My Own Political Party

Remember the Nixon mask? That Halloween costume was popular for quite a while. This year, I wonder if McCain and Obama costumes will be as popular. I have already seen a few masks on the web, so the manufacturers are betting that political costumes will be popular this Halloween. If you don't like Obama or McCain you can choose Bill or Hillary Clinton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Al Gore and even Nixon! Read More

I started watching Barack Obama's speech last night at the Democratic National Convention. First, for a party that wants to take care of the poor and the environment, having a big to-do at a stadium seems a little irresponsible. What I took in mostly from the speech is that Obama wants the government to take care of you. He wants more tax breaks for the "bottom" 95% of tax payers, he wants children to have money for college, he ... Read More

John McCain may be 72 according to his age, but his real age is something different. Dr. Michael Roizen has calculated McCain's Real Age according to various factors such as body mass index, blood pressure, cholesterol, cancer history and others. After adding and subtracting, Dr. Roizen estimates that McCain's Real Age is 63.7 years old, nine years younger. McCain tries to keep healthy, but may not be in the best physical shape as he could be. As far as I ... Read More

Obama has been the candidate of change, but now that he has chosen his running mate is he still that candidate. Joe Biden has been in the Senate for more than thirty years and the American people are not real happy with Congress right now. So, is Joe Biden perceived as hindering Obama's vision of change? This alliance reminds me of another from movie fame. I can just hear Biden whispering into Obama's hear - "Come to the Dark Side!" Read More

We have a third party running for the US Senate from New Jersey - Jason Sheurer. He will run on the Libertarian ticket. Scheurer has been quoted as saying: Runaway spending, a crumbling education system, rampant illegal immigration, corruption at every level of government, a bankrupt social security system, and a failed foreign policy make it more important than ever to offer to the voters of New Jersey a real choice this coming November. The time is now to make the ... Read More

Of all the possibilities that Obama could pick, Joe Biden was the last person on my list. Not that I am voting for Obama anyway, but Joe Biden is a crabby Senator with zero personality. Of course, I knew that Obama would pick someone that was older and had a lot of experience, not someone who needs blemish acne cream! The big kicker is that Biden, when he was running against Obama for President, stated that Obama wasn't experienced enough to ... Read More

If you love golfing, you are now able to pick up an Obama Golf Ball. You can get a sleeve of three golf balls for only $15.00. Support McCain? You can also get a set of three McCain Golf Balls for $10.00. I guess in this case McCain offers the better deal for the American public. I saw a lot of signs, shirts and bags in each of the nominees stores, but I was hoping for a ... Read More

It seems that John McCain just doesn't know how many houses he owns making a great campaign ad for Obama. Obama will try and portray McCain as being out of touch with the average working American. It was finally revealed that McCain owns eight houses/condos in three different states. McCain also put his foot in his mouth last week commented that you have to make $5 million a year to be consider rich in the country. Don't let Obama fool ... Read More

I was proud of US Swimmer Rebecca Soni when she won the Gold Medal in the women's 200 meter breast stroke. She is from my neck of the woods, hailing from Plainsboro, New Jersey. She edged out Australian swimmer Leisel Jones who was previously the world record holder. Besides rooting for the US, I always give a shout out to the Australians as well. Don't you just love the UGG Australia boots! Read More

The horses, english saddles and other equipment are shipped from all over the world for the Olympic Equestrian events held in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, the Equestrian events are not ones in which China will win a medal. Hua Tian, China's first and only Olympic horse rider was eliminated after falling at one of the jumps. Tian is only 18 years old and the youngest Olympian in the equestrian events. There is a lot of pressure on Chinese athletes ... Read More
