While yellowcake alone is not considered potent enough for a so-called “dirty bomb” — a conventional explosive that disperses radioactive material — it could stir widespread panic if incorporated in a blast. Yellowcake also can be enriched for use in reactors and, at higher levels, nuclear weapons using sophisticated equipment.

So, in a way, Carter didn’t lead to Reagan, as much as Reagan came to power after Carter because Reagan was a good republican who was a great man with outstanding conservative principles who convinced so many people to vote for him because they saw just that and he communicated extremely well. and he was an outstanding president.

Today’s Republican Party doesn’t have it in them to nominate a man with outstanding conservative principles, who communicates extremely well.

Obama or McCain – either way, we’re doomed.

I wasn’t asking those entities. Regardless, If things go the way they are going you are probably going to have your alternative to McCain. I wonder if he will pander to the liberals…

At the rate McCain is going-by his own volition, he may well give us the alternative no one wants.
Do not put this as “my alternative”, Bill.

If he gets really stupid and puts on Bloomberg as VP (in order to keep up with Obama’s funding)-the game is over-he’ll be so radioactive no one will touch him. He will be viewed by the “reform” crowd as a phony-since he made his career there with McCain-Feingold and such, and more to that point he will at that point so alienate the NRA ad nauseum-he will become radioactive to probably the only conservative group that hasn’t written him off yet.

There won’t be a thing you or I could do to save him at that point.
Hopefully he will not step into that particular “Elephant Trap”….we don’t need anymore problems.

The election frankly is McCain’s to win or lose-we shall see what happens.

“Obviously, Bill, you either have not been paying attention to Michelle’s blogs or other sources of news over the years or you just don’t care…”

Specifically, what has he done to pander to them?

Obviously, Bill, you either have not been paying attention to Michelle’s blogs or other sources of news over the years or you just don’t care…this of course is your prerogative.

“I’m still seeing the “If you don’t vote for McCain, you’re voting for Obama” which is still the most disingenuous argument on the block.””

Gee, thanks. So who is the other viable candidate?

“And it’s not helping MO’s kids either.”

Well, that is of course the paramount concern for all of us.

“McCain wants us to judge him by the company he keeps, correct? How do people who support this candidate explain this connection away?”

His Connection to Richard Armitage? I am not sure it is my role to “explain away” things. I will say that McCain probably hasn’t asked him to for advice on how to keep his mouth shut when talking to reporters. I suppose, at the end of it the question you have to ask yourself is whether or not Armitage leaked deliberately or by accident. If he did it deliberately, even if he was “just following orders” then it was an inherently dishonorable act and should be cut lose. If he misspoke, it was a stupid thing to do but does that negate his previous service and talents? Again, that is your decision.

Here: his biography.

I would go on to say that while we are “judging people by the company they keep” let’s not forget Tony Rezko, Nadhmi Auchi. William Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, Rashid Khalidi, George Soros, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Michael Pfleger, yada yada yada… but that might not help MO’s kids either. Hope you had a nice weekend.

Catching up from the weekend.

As an undecided…all of the discussion, and all of the rhetoric, isn’t helping me decide to vote for this man.

And it’s not helping MO’s kids either.

Again, the Straight Talk Express looks like it took a detour.

08 sucks politically and I fear 2012 will be worse.

“It isn’t lying about McCain that gets all you little McCainiac lemmings in a tizzy. You could rebut lies.”

LOL, when they do get rebutted SOME folks declare that “the conversation is over” and retreat only to pop up with the same rebutted argument later.

“The problem you have is that people tell the truth and you have to try to Clinton your way out of it.”

Nope, the problem is that some of you have bought in to a DNC PR campaign designed to cleave off the hard right wing of the republican party in the mistaken idea that it will make the GOP stronger to lose elections.

Losing elections doesn’t make a political party stronger. Indeed, electing this dangerous grifter, this appeasing islamist appeaser Barack Obama wont leave a whole lot for ether party to be fighting over once he runs things in to the ground.

” So can you tell me why in the h#ll is he trying to pander to them at all???”

Specifically, what has he done to pander to them?

“Being the nice guy I am, I will state to you again that I am on the fence with respect to McCain.”

I hope you and the rest of the country can be won over. If seeing the opposition isn’t enough to do it I honestly don’t know what it is going to take.
