John McCain has plans for Americans. He sees the crisis we are in regarding energy, and jobs. His plans are strong, concrete and visionary at the same time. He offers LEADERSHIP to an exhausted AMERICA. In fact, his ZEST is what AMERICA needs. One of the things I like the most about him is his STRONG, FIERCE SPIRIT. And his HEROIC NATURE. He is a lot like President Teddy Roosevelt, who was FEARLESS when he championed necessary reforms.
John McCain is interested in creating lots of industry in AMERICA. This is the best thing about him. He cares about US! And he wants to foster tremendous innovation here, in terms of how we produce ENERGY. He is aware that we need both short and long term plans for this, and so he offers actual SOLUTIONS for right now!
I feel that John McCain is thinking “America First” when I look at this ad. He is a maverick who won’t play along the pork barrel party line, like others have and are. We need a President we can TRUST. McCain’s stance is solid, balanced, and he brings fresh ideas in a time when American’s need a joyful burst of cultural Nationalism. This makes him a rogue, but also, VISIONARY!
One thing I loved in this ad above, was the honeycomb motif. I think all the time about the “colony collapse” disorder facing our bees, globally. To see this in the ad, shows me that the Republican Party is also aware of this. McCain has to manage the “old grid” while building “the new grid.” His nature is PROGRESSIVE, BALANCED, INTEGRATED and PLANNED.
Here is what he had to say over at the The Wall Street Journal right before the Fourth of July:
“…To get our economy back on track, we must enact a jobs-first economic plan that supports job creation, provide immediate tax relief for families, enact a plan to help those facing foreclosure, lower health care costs, invest in innovation, move toward strategic energy independence and open more foreign markets to our goods,” McCain said in a statement…”
When I read this next part of the article it was music to my ears, and I bet, music to a lot of Green Progressives’ ears as well! He believes in Green Ideas for the long run in our country. Since we have such VAST resources available in terms of solar (the sun in our deserts) wind, (our deserts, mountains and passes) and water (the sea, and our rivers) McCain will COMMAND all of these natural forces to produce the energy AMERICA needs.
“…He acknowledged the challenges facing the U.S. economy, and reiterated his plan to use energy alternatives to boost the economy. “I believe the green technologies in the United States of America will create millions of jobs, if not hundreds of thousands. I believe that green technologies — whether it be nuclear power or hybrid cars, or battery-driven cars, or wind and solar or tide – are directly the factor that will improve America’s economy and get us on our feet again,” McCain said…”
Using the power of the sea and tides is a very positive step to a green future. I was thinking of the time McCain was at sea in the Navy, from his book “Faith of my Fathers” and so I wondered about how the Navy under John McCain’s expert command, might take a look at this video, to see what is being done already to harness the immense power of the sea. This could be a part of McCain’s extraordinary LEXINGTON PROJECT in the future, perhaps… (we already have such an incredible Navy!)…
Another look at this from “GreenPeace”…. Progressives… and how it looks in action…
The place with Green Spirit, and renewables is here at “The National Renewable Energy Laboratory”
We already have the technologies available! McCain could harness all of this!
hat tip to: THE BLUE PLANET (Dynamics of the Oceans)
Things Bill Moyers had to say off “Grist” are here… it’s a good piece for Greens, and new Green Republicans…
Now Hear This
an excerpt:
“…Meanwhile, over a billion people have no safe drinking water. We’re dumping 500 million tons of hazardous waste into the Earth every year. In the last hundred years alone we’ve lost over 2 billion hectares of forest, our fisheries are collapsing, our coral reefs are dying because of human activity. These are facts. So what are the administration and Congress doing? They’re attacking the cornerstones of environmental law: the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, NEPA [the National Environmental Policy Act]. They are allowing l7,000 power plants to create more pollution. They are opening public lands to exploitation…”
My sense is that McCain is both practical and a PROGRESSIVE at heart. Hence THE LEXINGTON PROJECT!
Coming from the same time Moyers did, Progressive Republicans would want the same reforms as Greens I bet. It’s just that we all are aware of what faces our planet, right now. How to emerge from an “old grid” to a “new grid” is what McCain will be best at shepherding. It’s on his web page, for all of us to see…
I think a lot of us feel very scared about nuclear, because of the waste. Could that industry make the shift, using all its engineers to a different model? Here is more on the power of the Ocean from “The Ocean Energy Council.”
“…The waters off the Pacific Northwest are ideal for tapping into an ocean of power using newly developed undersea turbines. The tides along the Northwest coast fluctuate dramatically, as much as 12 feet a day. The coasts of Alaska, British Columbia and Washington, in particular, have exceptional energy-producing potential. On the Atlantic seaboard, Maine is also an excellent candidate. The undersea environment is hostile so the machinery will have to be robust.
Currently, although the technology required to harness tidal energy is well established, tidal power is expensive, and there is only one major tidal generating station in operation. This is a 240 megawatt (1 megawatt = 1 MW = 1 million watts) at the mouth of the La Rance river estuary on the northern coast of France (a large coal or nuclear power plant generates about 1,000 MW of electricity). The La Rance generating station has been in operation since 1966 and has been a very reliable source of electricity for France. La Rance was supposed to be one of many tidal power plants in France, until their nuclear program was greatly expanded in the late 1960’s. Elsewhere there is a 20 MW experimental facility at Annapolis Royal in Nova Scotia, and a 0.4 MW tidal power plant near Murmansk in Russia. UK has several proposals underway…”
John McCain has already proven that he is concerned about conserving our natural resources, and he cares about the BEAUTY we in the WEST care so deeply about. Here is his take on that, from his own web page!
Stewards of Our Nation’s Rich Natural Heritage
“…John McCain has a proud record of common sense stewardship. Along with his commitment to clean air and water, and to conserving open space, he has been a leader on the issue of global warming with the courage to call the nation to action on an issue we can no longer afford to ignore.America has been blessed with a rich and diverse natural heritage. In the tradition of his hero, Theodore Roosevelt, John McCain believes that we are vested with a sacred duty to be proper stewards of the resources upon which the quality of American life depends. Ensuring clean air, safe and healthy water, sustainable land use, ample greenspace - and the faithful care and management of our natural treasures, including our proud National Park System - is a patriotic responsibility. One that must be met not only for the benefit of our generation, but for our children and those to whom we will pass the American legacy…”
Click on that link above and you can watch him speak in a video, right on the page!
They don’t call John McCain “The Straight Talk Express” for nothing. This is why people LOVE him, especially reporters. He isn’t going to doublespeak. He isn’t going to waffle around, hoodwink, baffle or bamboozle AMERICA.
He’s a WESTERNER. HE HAS ETHICS! He has CHARACTER! He is going to be honest with Americans, and straight with his plans. Don’t miss his video! And read about how he feels about the earth!
A WESTERNER IS ALWAYS GOING TO GIVE YOU STRAIGHT TALK! ALWAYS!
That’s why I place my trust in John McCain, why I have left the Democratic Party, and have decided to devote my energy and ideas to the GREEN REPUBLICANS from now on! I have seen the absolute corruption within the Democratic Party and its Dirty Politics. I don’t want any part of that, EVER AGAIN.
As far as I am concerned Hillary and Bill Clinton were the last decent Democrats. And the Democratic Party tried to ruin Hillary, before my very eyes in 2008.
I’m picking a PRESIDENT who understands just what we need in America. John McCain!
This is a platform I can believe in!
“REFORM, PROSPERITY, PEACE”
Well, well. I read that fabulous article in The Guardian on McCain the other day, and funny thing. I came across two names in a couple of those paragraphs, and one of them seems VERY afraid of a HERO who is as honest as McCain will be! It’s this guy:
“…That sentiment was echoed by Mississippi Republican Senator Thad Cochran, who told a Boston newspaper: ‘The thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine. He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me…’
So, why would this Cochran guy be so damn scared of a good guy like McCain? Maybe he has some reasons to have a cold chill running down his timid little spine, no? Because, if you look at this article on him from the wikipedia he certainly does seem to have his little fingers all over Washington’s pie, doesn’t he?
Like for instance, he’s involved with all this stuff!
- Appropriations (Ranking Member)
- Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies
- Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies (Ex-Officio)
- Subcommittee on Defense
- Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development
- Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government (Ex-Officio)
- Subcommittee on Homeland Security (Ranking Member)
- Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies
- Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies
- Subcommittee on Legislative Branch (Ex-Officio)
- Subcommittee on Military Construction and Veterans’ Affairs, and Related Agencies (Ex-Officio)
- Subcommittee on State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs (Ex-Officio)
- Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies (Ex-Officio)
- Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry
- Rules and Administration
That’s a lot of stuff isn’t it? To be involved with…
Maybe McCain scares him because he might want to investigate that little melamine dog food problem we seem to have just transcended, no? That killed all those people’s dogs over here. Could he have known about the Melamine being introduced into kibble?
If I were him, I’d be a little scared too.
Because of this! Just a little something I got off of the ol’ Muckraker!
“…Sen. Thad Cochran (Miss.), ranking Republican on the Senate Appropriations Committee, has collected $774 million worth of earmarks in 12 spending bills. After Cochran, Sen. Ted Stevens (Alaska), the second-ranking Republican on Appropriations, secured more money for special projects than any other member of Congress: $502 million…”
I wasn’t exactly sure what all these pork things and earmarks were about, but, I know my personal hero, the MAVERICK JOHN McCAIN doesn’t like them!
So, I found this great article right here! (It helped me understand what all of that porky piglet stuff was about) and then, I thought I’d have a look at what McCain had to say about all this over at his place!
Well, well! Here is what he had to say!
Lobbying and Ethics Reform
Seal the Pork Barrel
“…Among the most glaring abuses in Washington is the willful setting aside of taxpayer dollars for the pet projects of special interests, often through last minute additions to appropriations bills. Pork barrel spending is an insult to taxpayers, a waste of public resources, and an abdication of our leaders’ responsibility to be good and honorable stewards of the public treasury, for the benefit of all Americans, not just a few.Too often it appears that elected leaders use the treasury as a campaign kitty, channeling taxpayer dollars for pet projects to preserve incumbency rather than to meet national needs. John McCain has been a tireless warrior against wasteful spending, and one of the few leaders who has the guts to challenge abusive Congressional earmarks and the pork barrel politics that grip Washington. John McCain understands that, fundamentally, wasteful spending is an issue of ethics.
As he pointed out recently as part of his longstanding, principled, and often lonely vigil against pork barrel earmarks in Congress: “Earmarked dollars have doubled just since 2000, and more than tripled in the last 10 years. This explosion in earmarks led one lobbyist to deride the appropriations committees as favor factories. The time for us to fix this broken process is long overdue.” As President, John McCain would shine the disinfecting light of public scrutiny on those who abuse the public purse, use the power of the presidency to restore fiscal responsibility, and exercise the veto pen to enforce it…”
Now do you see why he is my hero! He’s going to fix things around that ol’ Washington right where it counts! It occurs to me that there might be many in Washington who are absolutely scared shitless of him right now. Especially all those “special project” types, no?
Like say those Chicago Slums we talked about yesterday, and how Obama is involved with that guy Rezko, and stuff. Just to refresh your memory, here is that story again off the Boston Globe!
How interesting! Looks like our hero’s competition is involved with those earmarks and porky stuff too. But I guess that’s just the way they like to “keep house” up Chicago way. Let poor Black people suffer in rat infested slums while building gigantic Aquariums! Hmmmm….
My HERO, John McCain? I don’t think he’d like that kind of thing, do you?
Look what I found over at the SWINE LINE! wow!
Fishing for Tax Dollars
You know, rather than helping tourism? You better fix those rat-filled slums, pal. Like my HERO would.
And now a little song for all those lil porkers! (from one of my fave artists) just double click that arrow in the middle of it and be magically swept to a place where you can hear it! I’m playing it for my hero! Umm, hmmm… ’cause just like me, he’s a Westerner, and ummm, we just don’t abide with things like the above. No, we don’t. Why you ask? Because they are UNETHICAL!
Gee, I can’t help wondering what Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Ralph Nader and the fabulous ghost of Teddy Roosevelt would have to say about all this! You know, John McCain is just like Teddy Roosevelt, isn’t he?
Beloved! By a lot of pumapeople, everywhere! It’s high time we had somebody with his kind of ethics take the helm!
Pumaliciousness for dumbzillas, 101!
June 30, 2008
A little roundup from Pumaville, plus… unlike those of you “fauxgressives” we are something else!
(as in tail end baby boom) but we’ve been over that before, no?
We, protested the war in Vietnam, segued through punk rock, became artists, (always) because we probably had FABULOUS Liberal Arts Educations at the best kind of schools, and we think for ourselves!
After the last eight years of politics? We are never, never, never, going to have another hanging chad stuffed down our throats again. We are going to CHOOSE! Just like we always have, when we vote. I for one, am never going to support corrupt Chicago politicians with connections to slum landlords who think they can dress up ala 60’s in faux baubles and trash the one politician (Hillary Clinton) who I felt was actually going to be able to do some good for this country, and the state we presently find ourselves in, as the year 2009 approaches…
You and your cronies? You never saw actual war, did you? No, you’ve had a phat little life, except, your job bores the hell out of you doesn’t it? You sit in a little cubicle someplace, and your only joy in life is trying to get bossy because you really don’t have any ACTUAL power! It’s true isn’t it?
Under 30? What meds are you on? Chances are, these were target-marketed to you since childhood.
The question is, can you think for yourself? Or are you brainwashed? Your generation has been target-marketed to for the last 30 years, so, you feel comfort in going with the mass decision, don’t you?
Well we o’ the pumaclan are so much luckier than you! We are real rebels — because, the rock and roll we listened to all our lives just reinforced that. We don’t need to fit in with the masses. We wouldn’t want to anyway. Because almost everyone in this generation is proud of the fact that they are individuals!
In fact, that’s the reason I’m going McCain. It’s because he is a TOTAL MAVERICK! Just like me! See, his generation had their share too, of people who didn’t want to completely conform. The super-conformists are the people who are turning against him now, over on the far, far, right. But, they are only a teeny weeny little contingent that is the utter vastness of Babyboomsville!
To try and put the Republican mind at ease, I’m quite sure the Republicans have a lot of heterosexual green minded recycling types like us in their Party. The Baby Boom in toto is a GIGANTIC and UNPREDICTABLE demographic! We like it that way.
Check this out! (on trying to target-market to us!) Then, for a PERFECT, lucid, take, check out how Klownhaus feels! One look at that graphic? Don’t think so…. for one thing, we’ve had black friends! Right when your lil candidate was sitting dreaming about whether he could screw some white chicks, or not! (Over in his teenage years, in Hawaii)… Unlike him, and his afrocentric wife and cronies living up in frigidville practicing his hate-filled religion in the grimmest looking (architecturally styled) CHURCH I’ve ever seen) we aren’t like that!
I guess because post the 60’s everybody was INTEGRATED! So that bullshit about racism is so full of holes in the first place, get over it. Our generation respects each other! We come in all colors, and all sexual persuasions, and those that are LGBT are for the most part out o’ the closet in this generation! Yep, we knew who was going which direction by high school, didn’t we? Yep. So, you start showing us your Chicago-style, racist homophobic BS? We just laugh at you!
Now, I’m straight, and female. My choice in life. Other people I know aren’t. But guess what? Did you know there are GAY REPUBLICANS, Oh my! Yep. I could be friends with them. I’ve been friends with GAY DEMOCRATS, too! In this lifetime. So the Chicago camp thought it was going to be able to segregate people by sexual orientation, grab all that moolah, and cut and run. We see right through your crap, Axelsh*t. Right through you! And your kind of marketing is about to crush you in backlash, kiddo. That is where you really F*CKED UP! It’s actually LAUGHABLE, to the sophisticated set…
In fact, let’s talk San Fran’s mayor! Gavin Newsom! You refused to pose with him you hypocritical little sh*t. What you wanted was all the money in that little goldmine, no? But you aren’t his actual friend! Are you? Not even for a picture! You’ve got some nerve, saying you’ve got game, no?
It’s what your game actually is though? That we all question… like the SLUMLORD BUSINESS! Up Chicago way… You know who has your number? Mr. Ford… And ummmm, all that marketing to Native American Indians? Did that have something to do with VEGAS-style, gambling? Just wondering… or did you really care about the INDIAN populations in AMERICA? See, we all kind of dig Indians too — in fact, lots of us heavily identify with their ideas, religions and mythologies, not to mention liking their taste in art, or the artifacts they make…
What you appear to be is a hustler and a user to a lot us! Not to mention rude and a sexist pig!
Apparently this is some FLORIDA backlash, that just started up. It’s very sad to me to think about what all of this could turn into for you. What Axesh*t has done? Big problems for you and your camp… I find that sad, but you see, you caused it! It was the target-marketing!
Watch Flineo’s “The Kingmaker” at this particular juncture…
or say, this one… “Reality Infection Program”
and watch sporeville happen, Axlesh*t style….
Nah, I’m going McCain because he is a HERO! McCain is a MAVERICK! McCain is a REBEL! McCain is TRUTHFUL! McCain is going to be one of the GREATEST PRESIDENTS THIS COUNTRY HAS EVER HAD! Because he is HONEST! In fact, he may be about the most honest politician the tail end Baby Boom has had in its lifetime! Plus, he has a little thing called scruples, that you seem to lack…
For one thing! No associations to slums, Marxists. Communists, and I won’t use the T word, but, believe me. I want an AMERICAN for president, not somebody with a potentially forged BIRTH CERTIFICATE manufactured in the web! Frankly, If I were you, I’d be a little scared right now. I think the CIA over at NQ has alerted those in the know about what we are all witnessing come to life right here on our soil, and I can tell you this, we aren’t going to have your sort running things here…
Are we?
No, we’ll take an American Hero every single time…being Americans and all…
Censorship? Well, your little paid for minions thought they could pull that off, but? No. that didn’t work either. The Cannonfire himself has all the notes on P.U.M.A. (plus other things) you need to know!
In fact, maybe it’s a good thing if the Democratic Party self destructs at this point. It’s kind of like who needed it anyway? The Clintons were the last decent part of a VERY LONG DEMOCRATIC TRADITION and you are like so, majorley flawed…fakir!
File under category of “Boy are you dumb when it comes to advertising, and that hair really sucks! Watch the backfire happen!”
It wouldn’t surprise me after this if nobody ever hires you ’round Washington for another campaign, after what you did with this one! Talk about not understanding demographics! Oh my!
For one thing, all those poor ol’ blue collar male working class stiffs you just offended no end? Well here is a classic Hollywood film that shows you what they think about your camp right about now…One of these dudes is a Veteran, another is a classic surfer type, and there is a sensitive one too! (All representing a cross section of American manhoodly goodness…) and possibly many, many American male’s mindsets…right about now!
Welcome to realsville!
Oh dear! Oh my! (Can’t you just imagine what is being whispered about your set across all the States, about now?) Pumafemmes everywhere are watching! — as the teleprompter turns…
