Politics Trumps Math, Everytime.

Watch this video before continuing, it's Barack Obama's campaign ad talking about tax breaks to the average American.



100 Million Americans get NO TAX RELIEF AT ALL!!!

Barack Obama pledges to give us 3 TIMES Nothing, unfortunately, last time I checked, that's still nothing.

I'm definitely no economist or even a math whiz, no poli-sci major, no lawyer, I'm just undecided average Joe. Sure, that ad hit hard when I first heard it, then I started thinking how much sense it didn't make.

Just throwing that out there.

And before everyone jumps on the "OMG Conservative Blogger!" Bandwagon, take a look at some of my other posts, I don't hate Obama, I hate politicians.

McCain's New Advertising Strategy

With only a few weeks left in the presidential election 2008, John McCain is falling behind in the polls, most people say it's due to his linking with unpopular President Bush, I personally think it's because he has his advertising all wrong. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you McCain's new strategy:

Sarah Palin, VPILF

Although it's not actually correct, she's more like a VPCILF, since she's only the candidate, VPILF sounds better. (I Pronounce it V-PILF, please correct me if I'm wrong). I decided to throw together some posters for the lovely couple in honor of their new role as presidential and vice presidencial candidates.





These were literally thrown together in 15 minutes between google searching for pics and randomly thinking of a tagline. I'll gladly accept any ideas, email me your tagline at 02sense@live.com, you can send the full picture or just the tagline and what you want it to look like and I'll eventually have a post of just submitted posters, enjoy.

How to be a Good President

Let this be known, this is not advice for Bush, he's too far gone, this is for McCain or Obama, whoever wins in 2008 and anyone after them. I'm not going to go political on you guys, so if you want something to flame the comment section about, go elsewhere, this is strictly humorous or possibly serious, depends how you want it to be.

Here's the list:

1. I would have a person in my cabinet, or even just a normal adviser who is the exact opposite of me. If you're a republican, get a member of the ACLU to be on the board, if you're a democrat, perhaps an NRA member. But the point is, that this person's job would be to disagree with you on everything, causing you to make sure you think of all aspects before making a decision.

2. Run a blog, with the rise of the internet, and as long as we keep Net Neutrality, most people can access the web. Sure, we've had maintream media for some time now, but honestly, not many of them can be trusted, ex. "Liberal Media" and "Faux News". Who to better hear it from them the President himself?

3. On the topic of blogs, have a person, or group of people in charge of blogger/internet relations, McCain had a similar version of this with his 'Townhall' style of campain, but lost it as the race got bigger, but wouldnt it be easier to email ThePresident@whitehouse.gov and have someone read it and then give a report to the president? Goes back to thinking things through before acting.

Fourth, last, and most importantly.

Get my head out of my ass. Sure, I'm the president, but there's no point in having my head in the clouds. The common theme here is that there is no reason not to look around and see what people are saying about you, if you make an unfavorable decision, address it. Guess what, half of the country will likely disagree with what you have to say, and the president that finally does, will have the highest approval rating of any president, EVER.
