ElectionSnark (27 April)

April 27th, 2008 By: Jason, Managing Editor | Tags:

Obama is still dealing with allegations that he hates the flag. Next on the agenda are questions of whether he also hates baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, or Chevrolet.

Now that he is the certain Republican nominee, the New York Times doesn’t like John McCain anymore. In other news, water found to be wet and Ron Paul still found to be hanging on like a fungal disease that won’t go away. (EEK.  We said Voldemort’s name!  Here come the Paulbots!)

Obama’s endorsers continue to be his worst enemies. No news on whether Hamas members will need driver’s licenses to vote, or whether a electrical bill for their bomb making factory will be enough.

Hillary Clinton proposes a Lincoln-Douglas debate with Obama. Apparently, Clinton has forgotten (1) Lincoln was from Illinois and (2) Douglas lost.

The French are on Obama’s side. Surrender imminent.

    Just a suggestion: can you put the memeorandum link permanently on the home page again? I sometimes click over to Independent Liberal to get to it (not sure if that has equal effect on the hit count) and other times go through other blog’s links or directly from a bookmark to get to memeorandum.

PoliGazette Comments Policy

PoliGazette encourages comments from all viewpoints, especially those that disagree. Comments submitted must, however, adhere to the following standards. Comments that violate these standards may be edited or deleted without notice at the sole discretion of the editors. Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.

(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should not be posted.

(2) Comments should avoid vulgarity as well as racial, ethnic, religious, or sexual bigotry.

(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.

(4) Comments should reflect the contributions of the commenters themselves and should not include extensive cut-and-paste reproductions of others' words except insofar as necessary to supplement the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.

(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements. Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat slogans for or against a candidate without engaging in substantive comment are not welcome.

Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors by email only.
