False Claim of Sexism
September 13, 2008 by ItheConsumer.
Before the Republicans start accusing others of sexism they may want to explain why the GOP has done nothing to stop the “School Girl Palin” action figure from being sold. True, the word “Lipstick” may have created a diversion in the media, but as a shot of reality. I have to ask the Conservative Ladies of Society if they believe that it is appropriate for their first female VP Candidate to be shown in such a demeanor.
Yes, it seems IMHO that a false claim of sexism has been leveled against Obama just to cause a divide in the country. For unless the Right is willing to admit that they do not know the difference between a pit bull and a pig than I do believe that the Republican Leadership has a lot of explaining to do. Because given the Argument of Class, does having their VP Candidate and a Governor of a State dressed and sold as a School Girl?

Pigs Pitbulls and Hockey Moms
September 10, 2008 by ItheConsumer.
Waking up to hear that the Republicans cannot tell the difference between pigs, pit bulls, and hockey moms made me laugh. For given the argument of poor judgment I do believe that this fake outrage shows the ignorance of the right about a saying that is old as the hills themselves. For other than the word “Lipstick” what other words spoke by Obama even mentioned Palin?
No, as a Gentleman I will let the Ladies of Society fight over the Stupidity of the McCain Ticket to use this tactic as a way to avoid the real issues that face our nation. Because why Obama statements clearly are referring to the policies and positions of the Republican Leadership, I do believe that the women of the right need to open their eyes and see that Mrs. Palin is being used as a pawn in this game of politics. For other than securing the Base of the Party, can a real Conservative tell me what else she brings to the party?

233 Years of Principles and Standards
September 6, 2008 by ItheConsumer.
Wanting to remain neutral in this election I ask my fellow Americans if they can show me any time in our history were a party ticket was formed with a candidate under active investigation for violation of the Law in which they will be sworn to protect and serve? No, than how can Senator McCain and Governor Palin claim to be Conservative? For even now she is receiving special treatment by her state general assembly by having the case against her fast tracked is she not? Therefore, I seek to ask the Republican Citizens and Lawyers how they can support such a ticket knowing those 233 years of Principles and Standards has been broken. Does this not cross the Line of Ignorance and demonstrate that the Change they claim to want to bring to Washington is that born of Stupidity?
No, I do not seek to destroy the Republican Party nor throw my support to the Obama/Biden Ticket this year; however, having watched both Candidates Presidential Candidates take on their respective Party Elders for the chance to seek the Highest Office in the Land. I cannot believe the average American Citizen would be so color blind (Red vs. Blue) as to give Al Qaeda and others in the World who stand against America and that for which SHE stands the very weapon that they have used against their Leaders. For why Governor Palin may be perfectly innocence in the charges leveled against her. So before you pull the lever this November ask yourself one thing. Are You Willing to Throw Away 233 Years of Principles and Standards based on your Party Beliefs or that which you know to be Right & True Regardless and still claim unequivocally you are an American Citizen?

Arrogance not Compassion Ruled the Night
September 4, 2008 by ItheConsumer.
Watching Sarah Palin speak last night, I wonder if arrogance not compassion ruled the night. For why I am sure the diehard Republicans thought that she was great, I do not believe that she made the mark of a VP of the United States of America. Sure she introduced her family, but did not touch on how such an appointment had affected their life. No instead I saw a woman who was more worried about stroking the very establishment she is said to have stood up against in Alaska. So I dare the Right to show me how this Maverick is going to change Washington when she was afraid to stand up to the Status Quo of the Republican Party.
Yes, her comment about hockey moms did make me chuckle; however, like a pit bull I do believe that America would be better served if she was kept on a chain. For hearing her quote the Talking Heads Points on Obama and the same old BS about the Democratic Party without offering a single plan of her own or Senator McCain. For except the fact that Sarah Palin is the first Female GOP who has reached this mark of evolution, I cannot see any other logic and reason for her appointment. Unless the Republican Citizens believe the only role that she can fill is the Political Attack Dog.
Sure, the Right can rest assure that the Left will call into question the judgment of Senator McCain and the Leadership of the Republican Party since history will point out the fact that Sarah Palin will be the first candidate in America to be sworn in under a cloud of Ethics violation. However, this Independent Pundit has to ask myself if “the Good Ole Boy” System has not just handed the Conservative Ladies of Society a blank. For if the Debate of Being President keeps to the Argument of Issues and who has the better judgment. I do believe the ticket Obama and Biden will walk right though the ticket of McCain and Palin. For unless the Old Maverick can pull a rabbit out of his hat.

Palin’s Missing Wedding Ring
September 3, 2008 by ItheConsumer.
If the extreme left is looking for “Red Meat” than they need to look at the video of Senator McCain landing in St Paul around 1:00 pm. Because why it may be a wardrobe malfunction, I noticed that VP Candidate Sarah Palin was not wearing her wedding ring. And why not married myself, I do find it out of the ordinary that she would be in public with having the ring on her finger. For knowing enough men that would be nailed to the Wall of Shame for such an offense, I am amazed that the MSM missed a perfectly good change to match the story of Senator Obama not wearing a flag pin. Yet, seeing that all is fair in Love & War and being a little bit ornery I wonder how well Governor Palin will handle the question “Where is your wedding ring.”

An open letter to Mr. Pickens
September 2, 2008 by ItheConsumer.
Dear Mr. Pickens,
As a Child of the 70’s who told his Elders and Powers-that-Be what they could do with their Democratic and Republican Parties I am proud to support your plan. Since as an Unlearned Unbridled Anti-Authoritarian Child of the 70’s by Freewill & Self-Nature I can offer to cover the other 80% of the Market for My Peers and the Children of the 21st Century. So please read “Given a Twist of American Orneriness” at my website IndependentPundit.com as I do believe that I can help you take on the Nimbyness Factor to your plan. For why a 75 foot tower in my backyard is not appealing, let me ask you and our Democratic and Republican Experts how many Windmills can fit into a Wind Tunnel?
Because able through Common Sense to come up with 4-6 (top, bottom, and both sides), I am sure that it will only take one to create the 75-200 mph winds needed to turn the others. So why I realize now why My Peers and the Children of the 21st Century will not be allowed to build a 128 Giga Watt Society in the next 10 years. Having the Self-Knowledge that if every American could produce 2500 kW of Electricity and sell it for a nickel a kilowatt they could make a million dollars, I wonder just how far the Children of the 21st Century can take Their Argument of Stupidity against My Peers before being saved by their Grandparents. Given that as an American Layman Citizen, I will not intervene in their Debate of “Pure Carbon and Crystal Motors. No sir, I do not want your job or can be bought for a shingling due to the Blessings of My Community Elders and Peers to see just how far I could take Our Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders by those who have shown me My Guaranteed Civil and Constitutional Rights. I do believe that with Proper Guidance and Wisdom many of my fellow citizens will be shocked to learn the Cardinal Knowledge and Wisdom passed down to Each Generation as they learn to stand up to the Short Comings of their Elders and Parents. So why I may not know or understand that Debate of Knowledge and Wisdom held by My Parents, I do see and have been promoting your plan to help cover the Fair Share required by the Establishment.
Therefore, I hope that I contribute to the Left and Right of Society understanding of the many possibilities that exist in the 21st Century and beyond. For from one Ornery Gentleman to another, I would like to hear My Elders and Peers of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s explain to their Grandchildren why a 10-Year-Old Child can never be more Right than their Parents. However, I will not hold my breath on that one. So let me know if I can help move your cause forward.
Sincerely
Henry Schlatman
