Political Incorrectness at PC Demon
While I hate using the word "demon" in any form, I had to pick up this lens. I've been wanting to post about the wonderfully incorrect things that happen in politics, and this URL happens to be the only Squidoo URL that has ever hit the front page of Digg. As weird as that may sound, it appears that Digg has Squidoo on the mythical autobury list, so this will also probably be the last one that hits.
Here, we will link to some of the best, most politically incorrect content on the internet. Check back often - this will not be a static lens but one that is updated regularly.
Cheers!

John McCain's Rage is a National Security Concern
http://bravenewpac.org/rage Digg it!: http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/John_McCain_s_Rage_is_a_National_Security_Concern During last night's debate, John McCain said we need "a cool hand at the tiller," but McCain has proven to be a loose cannon. He has accosted his Congressional colleagues on both sides of the aisle on everything from the federal budget to diplomatic relations. He is known for hurling profanities rather than settling disagreements calmly. His belligerence is legendary. Even conservative Senator Thad Cochran of Mississippi has said, "He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me." When someone earns the nickname "Senator Hothead," the public ought to call his character into question. McCain's propensity to explode undermines his abilities as a rational decision maker, particularly on national security issues -- which could prove disastrous considering our country is already involved in two wars. McCain's temper is critical to his decision-making abilities, and his character must be discussed. As Drew Westen writes, "The political brain is an emotional brain. It is not a dispassionate calculating machine, objectively searching for the right facts, figures and policies to make a reasoned decision." That why it's so crucial people know the real Senator Hothead.

- Sarah Palin VP
- This blog compiles and breaks down stories about Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Mostly compiled from Digg and other sources, this blog acts as a balanced view of how the media looks at her and the potential she brings to the GOP ticket.
- In Obama's Choice, a 'Very Personal Decision'
- On Saturday, as the two men embraced before a crowd in Illinois, the new Democratic partnership made its debut. Yet in a moment that could have showcased Mr. Obama's decision-making, his top advisers made a concerted effort not to disclose how he made his choice, instead choosing to showcase the life stories of the two men on the ticket and to present Mr. Biden as a forceful new critic of Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona.
"It's a very personal decision," said David Axelrod, the campaign's chief strategist, in a brief interview Saturday. "He approached it in a very serious, sober and reasoned way." - Palin is seemingly unaware of McCain's Iraq plan.
- In an interview with Time Magazine today, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK), Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) running mate, suggested that McCain has yet to share his plan for Iraq with her. Palin, who has not been to Iraq, said she does not know "what the plan is to ever end the war." She later said its "tough" to "talk about the plan for the war" because her son will be deployed to Iraq this September. "Let's make sure we have a plan here," she said. Palin then added, "respecting McCain's position on that too though."
