We have no problem with adults viewing legal erotic materials in the privacy of their home, but to be sending them around law enforcement offices like a snickering teen-age boy shows a striking lack of maturity. Mike Sharp has admitted to this kind of juvenile behavior. (Update: registration with the Star might now be required to see the article.)
Perhaps we should look to a person with better judgment to revive our struggling county Sheriff's department. Besides, as we noted below, Sharp is most likely a Republican anyway.
UPDATE: Saturday, the Kansas City Star, which endorsed Sharp last week, withdrew its endorsement and instead recommends John Bullard for Sheriff. We agree. Too bad the Star had to base their initial choice on their usual 'what-big-wigs-support-him' method, and not the obvious skills and experience Bullard has that Sharp does not. Might have saved the paper some embarrassment...

The only good Republican...
...is an indicted Republican. Senator Ted Stevens, (R-Alaska,) is now a good Republican. As Crooks and Liars says, so dirty, even the Bush Administration had to indict him. Here's the poop...
Sharp is a Republican
Have you noticed that Mike Sharp, candidate for Sheriff, almost never puts the word "Democrat" or the party graphic on his signs or billboards? You would think that would be a plus in a Democratic county, in a Democratic year.
Well, I think he got wise, because the new billboard at 75th and Wornall does mention the party. But mostly, in Eastern Jack, we see sights like this:

So it looks like Sharp is asking all his GOP buddies out in Lee's Summit to pull a Democratic ballot just to elect him Sheriff. It will be interesting to see how that works out for him with a nasty GOP gubenatorial primary...

Kraus will lie to you.
Will Kraus will do whatever it takes to escape the GOP brand this year. He will pull out labor endorsements, put fake Democrats on his mail pieces, and just flat-out lie about his "independence." It did not work in Raytown in '06, as the Moreno campaign convinced Raytowners of Kraus's deep Republican connections. Kraus lost the Raytown vote, and the Kansas City vote. Only the right-wing folks who came out in Lee's Summit to vote against the Stem Cell initiative kept Willy Boy in office.
Remember, KRAUS IS A REPUBLICAN, and HE WILL LIE TO YOU about it. Count on it.

Dobson is a hypocrite
Today right-wing mulluh James Dobson, who a year ago said he could not vote for John McCain because of the flagrant infidelity he inflicted on his first wife (you know, the woman McCain dumped because she lost her hottness after a car wreck) has now changed his tune. In a half-hour screed against Barrak Obama, Dobson dropped the bomb that he could support McCain. This proves that Dobson and the folks at Focus on the Family are nothing more than a tax-exempt arm of the GOP political smear-machine.
Being a hyper-partisan Republican, Dobson has decided that who sits on the Supreme Court is more important than his own conviction or integrity. I guess McSame's screwing around does not have the importance to Dobson that it once did, so long as he gives the uber-Christians the judges they want.
Dobson is part of the old guard of evangelicalism that is thankfully being more and more marginalized by younger evangelicals. The day when no one in the Christian world cares what James Dobson says or thinks will be a great day for our nation, and for the faith.

This has a really nice ring to it
There's a ballot measure to rename the San Fran waste water treatment plant after Dear Leader W. A little spiteful perhaps, but far more than the schmuck deserves. We think this measure will pass. Deservedly so.
The folks who put this together have a great sense of humor, AND they despise Republicants. We applaud.

Alabama AG has a hobby, it seems...
Alabama's anti-gay and anti-sex-toys Attorney General, Troy King, is about to resign, it seems. No official reason given, but everyone in Alabama knows its because his wife had sad occasion to stumble upon him with another man in their marital bed.
We feel sad for his wife, but is not the hypocrisy beautiful? This bozo made a career of suckering the religious right, pandering to their every puritan desire, and here he is doing some other guy in his own bedroom.
And oh, yeah, I imagine he is going to lose his job as the chairman of John McCain's Alabama Leadership Team.

Yup, Global Warming not happening, it's all just in Gore's imagination, because liberals hate biddness...
Tell that too the Russians up at the North Pole who have to get the hell out of dodge because the ice is getting too thin. AT THE NORTH POLE!!!!!!!
But no, Hannity and Limbaugh and all the other right-wing nozzles say that it's all a hoax by folks how hate your freedom, or something. I wonder how much loot those right wing mouth-breathers get from Big Oil to spout the corporate line...
Republicans, on their knees for corporate America and making you and your kids pay for it. Join me in despising them and voting them out of power.
