Der Parson's rant

Soviet diehards see red over 'betrayal' by 007 girl Olga Kurylenko - Times Online

"Kurylenko, the Ukrainian actress who plays Bond's sidekick in Quantum of Solace, has been condemned by the Communist Party of St Petersburg for aiding “the killer of hundreds of Soviet people and their allies”. Apparently oblivious to Bond's fictional nature, it accused her of assisting “a man who worked for decades under the orders of Thatcher and Reagan to destroy the USSR”."

Sergei Malinkovich, the leader of the city party, told The Times: “Everyone knows that the CIA and MI6 finance James Bond films as a special operation of psychological warfare against us. This Ukrainian girl sleeps with Bond and that means that Ukraine is sleeping with the West.”

Palin's 'going rogue,' McCain aide says - CNN.com

A second McCain source says she appears to be looking out for herself more than the McCain campaign.

"She is a diva. She takes no advice from anyone," said this McCain adviser. "She does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family or anyone else.

"Also, she is playing for her own future and sees herself as the next leader of the party. Remember: Divas trust only unto themselves, as they see themselves as the beginning and end of all wisdom."

Palin plans rally in Fort Wayne | The Journal Gazette

Oh joy, the blessed bitch is coming to Fort Wayne to save us.

Former Fort Wayne mayor candidate finally admits his guilt.

Kelty pleads guilty | Indiana's NewsCenter: Fort Wayne WPTA-TV, WISE-TV, CW, and My Network | Local & Regional: "FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) --- DEVELOPING --- Former Republican Mayoral candidate Matt Kelty has pleaded guilty to criminal charges stemming from allegations of campaign finance fraud and perjury before a Grand Jury."


The Journal Gazette has excepts from the e-mails that lead to the guilty plea. It looks to me like the GOP was setting him up for failure, or were at least not going to "have his back" when this all came out.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE ENDORSEMENT: Chicago Tribune endorses Barack Obama for president -- chicagotribune.com: "This endorsement makes some history for the Chicago Tribune. This is the first time the newspaper has endorsed the Democratic Party's nominee for president."

I can hear the cons. crying about the "liberal media" already. I'm not sure I would count The Chicago Tribune as a liberal media out let any more then I would say Fox News is fair and balanced.

The Tribune in its earliest days took up the abolition of slavery and linked itself to a powerful force for that cause--the Republican Party. The Tribune's first great leader, Joseph Medill, was a founder of the GOP. The editorial page has been a proponent of conservative principles. It believes that government has to serve people honestly and efficiently.

This is pretty funny. Gramps is getting desperate.
