Obama rejects McCain call to delay debate

It sounds like John McCain is not only talking the talk, but walking the walk of what a President should be doing. By the way, are John McCain and Sen. Barack Obama still getting paid for their job? If they are, then who is pulling the cover over whose eyes (John McCain is working for his money).

Democratic Sen. Barack Obama rejected Republican Sen. John McCain’s dramatic
call Wednesday to delay Friday’s presidential debate because of the economic
crisis. The McCain campaign said McCain would not show up for the debate unless
a deal to address the crisis was reached.
The Commission on Presidential
Debates and the University of Mississippi, the scheduled host of Friday night’s
first debate, said the debate would go forward. They did not say what they would
do if McCain failed to show up in Oxford, Miss.
Speaking to reporters
in Clearwater, Fla., Obama said he and McCain agreed on the need to issue a
joint statement of support for legislation to rescue the banking industry. But
he declined McCain’s call to postpone the debate.
“This is exactly the time
when the American people need to hear from the person who in approximately 40
days will be responsible for dealing with this mess,” Obama told reporters in
Clearwater, Fla.
“In my mind, it’s more important than ever that we present
ourselves to the American people and describe where we want to take the country
and where we want to take the economy,” he said.

It sounds like John McCain is trying to SHOW us where he wants to take our country economically, not just debate about it.Late Wednesday, the candidates issued a joint statement.

…”This is a time to rise above politics for the good of the country,” their
statement says. “We cannot risk an economic catastrophe. Now is our chance to
come together to prove that Washington is once again capable of leading this
country.”

Who’s in Washington rising above politics? John McCain. Who’s in Washington, doing THEIR JOB? John McCain.

McCain adviser Nancy Pfotenhauer said McCain is just following his belief in putting the country first. She noted that he suspended the Republican National Convention when Hurricane Gustav hit the Gulf Coast and supported the unpopular troop surge in Iraq by saying he would rather win a war than win an election.
“We all watched the [Senate] hearings yesterday. … The bottom line is he did not think we would reach a conclusion and it’s absolutely imperative that we do so. This is vintage John McCain. He is going to put the country first and suspend the campaign,” Pfotenhauer told FOX News.

What causes ear wax? So what is ear candling and when is it necessary?

I was just cleaning my ears and I thought? Why does sometimes when I’m on certain phones my ear feels like it’s leaking something afterward? It’s probably the heat created by cell phones and cordless phones that I used to use. Now I have a corded phone and don’t have any problem with it. But we’re going to be getting a Stealth Radar Shield soon so when we get a new cordless phone I will know that the radiation will be 98% taken care of (which is better than 0% taken care of).

What causes ear wax?

The skin cells lining our outer ear canals include tiny glands, similar to sweat
glands, which produce wax. The point seems to be that this acts as a protective
layer, which traps dust and other particles which get into the ear. The wax
slowly works its way to the outside, taking the trapped dirt and dust with
it.

What do people need to do to clear it?

Most people’s ears clear the wax, which probably comes off on our pillows and
towels etc., at a rate which means that it does not build up. Some people may,
at some stages in their lives produce wax at a faster rate. Other people have
either one or both ear canals that is narrow, or that is at an angle which slows
the natural passage of the wax. In these people the wax builds up.

What should people not do to clear ear wax?

Do not try to clean out your ears by using a cotton bud. (Ear Nose and Throat
specialists sometimes say “You shouldn’t stick anything in your ear that’s any
smaller than your elbow!”) This may merely act like a ram rod, and could damage
the ear drum. It may help to wear ear plugs if you work in a particularly dusty
environment. If you keep getting ears blocked with wax, it may be worth using a
couple of drops of olive oil into each ear once or twice a week.

But what about ear wax candling…?

Ear candling is not recommended. It is a hollow cone made of paraffin and
beeswax with cloth on the tapered end. The tapered end is placed inside the ear,
and an assistant lights the other end, while making sure your hair does not
catch on fire. In theory, as the flame burns, a vacuum is created, which draws
the wax out of the ear. Limited clinical trials, however, showed that no vacuum
was created, and no wax was removed. Furthermore, this practice may result in
serious injury.

So with ear candling they actually light a flame by your hair? That sounds dangerous. Wow!

Josh Howard just can’t get enough of it , you know, controversy . This one while attending a fund raiser shows Howard, as the national anthem is being sung, saying: “‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ is going on. I don’t celebrate this [expletive].

Researchers looks into collections of tapes hoping to get deeper insights of Bin-Laden. sounds not too promising. read on here

“SACRAMENTO, Calif. _ For five years, a University of California, Davis, researcher has been replaying hundreds of hours of audiocassettes that, he says, yield deeper _ and more complex _ insights into the intellectual development of Osama bin Laden.
A collection of 1,500 audiocassettes was carted away from bin Laden’s compound in Kandahar, Afghanistan, in 2001 and provides a glimpse into bin Laden’s rise leading up to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Certainly, few would dare humanize the man the United States calls its most wanted, who seven years after the country’s deadliest terrorist attacks is still being sought dead or alive.
Seven years after the attacks, the most brazen ever carried out anywhere in the world, bin Laden still looms large on the American psyche, its politics and public life.
Nearly 3,000 people died in attacks when four hijacked U.S. jetliners crashed into New York’s World Trade Center, the Pentagon and into a rural field in Pennsylvania.
In the years since, the Osama bin Laden who Americans have come to know and demonize has arrived in video dispatches _ monologues excoriating the United States and filled with promises of further violence on American soil.
The audio tapes, some dating back to the 1960s, “show his evolution from a relatively unpolished Muslim reformer, orator and jihad recruiter to his current person,” said Flagg Miller, an assistant professor of religious studies at UC Davis and the first academic researcher to study the tapes.
“It makes it difficult to separate yourself and realize that this is what led to such horrific things as the 9/11 attack,” Miller said.” -

ok stop, are you serious? it is not that difficult to realize that Bin laden wants nothing but destruction towards the US and its citizens, why are they so called experts does not look into Bin Laden’s and other extremists core beliefs? I mean here one of the hint .

continue…
“You get a sense from these tapes of a man who’s seeking. He’s a seeker. He hasn’t figured it all out. We only have the faintest outlines of the logic,” Miller said.
Miller said that bin Laden took many years to hone his message and political platform. At times, he has referred to non-Muslims as “dogs,” but has also urged followers to engage civilly with Western governments by launching letter-writing campaigns to protest Israel’s policies toward Palestinians, most of them Muslim.”

well he’s all not that violent after all.. what a load of ‘you know what’. Letter-writing campaigns? I supposed it was just some love notes.

So how low can they go?

She’s the woman who shows up at the kid’s birthday party and starts opining
about everything from politics to lawn care. This is the woman that knows it
all. Will shout you down, will get revenge on you. That’s who she is.
She’s
friends with all the teenage boys. You have to say no when your kids say, ‘can
we sleep over at the Palin’s? No! NO!’

Pretty low!

Haters are everywhere! especially Palin’s Haters. Howie carr of Boston Herald explains.

It’s become a regular “60 Minutes”/Texas Air National Guard feeding frenzy
of bogus reporting out there. The whoppers about Palin are piled up so high in
the moribund mainstream media that the wrinkly newsreaders have taken to blaming
their most scurrilous, sexist screw-ups on those nefarious unnamed left-wing
“bloggers” - you know, like Brian Williams.

Update: Speaking of hate
Comparing Palin to Fundamentalist?
