The 2004 Election Blog Entry 1

It has begun, Kaitlyn. I refer to the countdown to 11/2/04 when the fate of our country, and your future I may add, will be decided. Will you be wearing burquas in your future and be stripped of all individuality, pride and courage? Or will you live and thrive in a great America as it has always been? For if John Kerry is elected it will be choice 1. If George W. Bush is elected then you will be able to read this missive. John Kerry, Kaitlyn, does not like any printed words that offend him. If he wins, Grandmother’s tome to you will likely be removed from the conscious world.

Do not forget, Kaitlyn Mae, that as Grandmother writes these daily missives with her wise observations and conclusions of the Great Election of 2004, it gets closer to that 60 day window when folks like myself, independent and with no affiliation with the media or the vaunted 527’s, might be breaking that freedom-loving law-the Campaign Finance Reform Act of 2003. Grandmother will write her entries and will criticize that candidate that she does not like, all of this in violation of that horrible legislation passed to assuage the monumental ego of John McCain and any incumbents who wants re-election more than they desire the preservation of free speech.

Grandmother shall risk her very freedom from the bars of the jail, all so Kaitlyn Mae will always know the truth of this country’s past during Grandmother’s reign of terror.

Okay, it was only the Sunday before the Republican National Convention officially was to begin but there were plenty of signs on the horizon. Some funny. Some not so good.

Let’s begin with Madame Hillary Clinton, Kaitlyn. Who might well be your President when you read this Kaitlyn, God forbid. This woman is a flaming socialistic shrew who will take all of your money and give it to the more deserving. Who would be herself and that sex-maniac husband of hers, William Jefferson Clinton. By the way, Willie J was also out yesterday and that’s the whole intent.

For while Madame Hillary rarely consents to any sort of in-depth interviews, yesterday she was on all the talk shows and yes, she’s as shrewish and as bitchy as ever. No matter what subject that woman is addressing, Kaitlyn, she always mentions Haliburton or Enron. Haliburton, Kaitlyn, in case you won’t know, is the company formerly headed by current Vice-President Dick Cheney. When Dubya announced Cheney as his running mate in 2000 the Democrats howled as if stuck with ten thousand pins over his alleged “conflict of interest” with his former employer. So Mr. Cheney removes himself from any association with the company AND, get this, Kaitlyn, takes out an insurance policy to protect his retirement stock should the company dissolve. In other words, no matter what Haliburton does or does not do, Cheney’s money is protected. The idea was to prevent any government decisions as regards contracts for Haliburton from affecting Cheney’s interest one way or the other. The Democrats demanded he do this and the very honorable Mr. Cheney did.

STILL Madame Hillary, no stranger to the “buzzword” of the day, continues to mention Haliburton in every interview that us dummies out here in la-la land do not miss her implication that Dick Cheney’s former company is suspect and indeed, perhaps even Mr. Cheney himself.

Haliburton must also be part of the recently distributed Democratic talking points as the protesters who marched in front of NY’s Madison Square Garden shouted HALIBURTON as they carried their silly signs and ranted against the President. Yes, Kaitlyn, there is expected to be a whole bunch of disheveled and whacko individuals protesting the Republican convention. Not that the Republicans shouldn’t be allowed to have a peaceful convention like the Democrats did but that’s how it is in this day and age. Democrats get free pass to commit any crime imaginable and the Republicans must remain polite.

Grandmother also heard many of the protesters shouting, to my disbelieving ears, “Fox News Has Got to Go”. Fox News, Kaitlyn, is a cable news network known for his conservative leanings. Should there be a President Kerry there will likely be no more Fox News as they sometimes talk bad about him and we know he doesn’t like that. Allow Grandmother to document the cable network’s existence just in case.

I asked myself in the silence of my kitchen that why on earth does Fox News have to go? Sure, their conservative bent is no secret but golly, it isn’t as if the liberals don’t already have
ABCCBSNBCMSNBCCNBC in their pocket. They can’t allow us to have one measly network?

Madame Hillary had one more spin and I heard her repeat it several times. “According to the 9/11 commission (see entry title “The 9/11 Commission Report-A Holy Day “, dated 7/24/04 ), there were six instances of overlooking terrorist activities during the first eight MONTHS of the Bush administration and four instances of same in the eight YEARS of the Clinton administration.”

This is such bologna, Kaitlyn. The Madame never mentioned that the four instances her administration missed were all terrorist ATTACKS. The Bush administration might have missed a memo. But then the Clintons were entirely too busy, what with Bill’s oval office oral ministrations, the theft of the White House furniture and granting pardons to criminals.

The point is, Kaitlyn, the Clintons have no class and have never had any class. While the Democrats held their very sad convention of lies, Republicans did not form massive protests and send Republicans on the air to broadcast lies.

I heard, Kaitlyn, via the Internet grapevine, that John Kerry didn’t even want the Clintons out and about but the head of the DNC, one very honest Terry McAuliffe, sent them out as part of a “truth team”. Neither of those Clintons would know the truth if it came up and smacked them in the face.

Stay tuned, Kaitlyn, and cross your fingers that a)Grandmother doesn’t go to jail for posting her opinions on a public forum and b)there is never a President Kerry mentioned in your history book.
