Biden vs Palin, 50 to 70 minutes

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

They are still on foreign policy. The subject has been on the Middle East for several minutes now. Again, both of them are going at it, toe to toe. I am amazed at the high level of debate that has been expressed in the last few minutes. I feel like I am getting much more […]

Biden vs Palin, 30 to 50 minutes

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

Gov. Palin is going right after Sen. Biden, while, so far, Sen. Biden is being much more cautious with Gov. Palin. (In passing, the moderator is a very strict time-keeper, and, so far, she is asking the hot-button questions for both sides.) Now here is something unexpected! Both sides just spoke out for civil rights […]

Biden vs Palin, first impressions

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

You will notice that there is no post for the first 1/2 hour of the debate between Biden and Palin. That is because I was at a Bible Study. And, yes, I think a local Bible Study is of more significance than a national debate. Because I missed the beginning, I can only say that […]

Descarados Republicanos

30 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

Descarado is a Spanish word that may have several meanings, but one of them is shameless. The root of the word is cara, which means face. So, a descarado is a “faceless” person, that is a person without honor, in other words, a shameless person. For those of you who are into cultures, this word […]

I don’t understand

29 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 2 Comments

OK, I do not understand. The majority of the Democrats vote for the 700 billion dollar rescue bill. The majority of the Republicans did not. Now the Republican party is blaming the Democrats for the failure to pass the bill. Supposedly, it is Rep. Pelosi’s fault because she made some objectionable remarks. Does this mean […]

Palin prevarications

27 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

Back on 31 July, I posted a blog commenting on receiving yet another anti-Obama e-mail that turned out to be false. In fact, on the Urban Legends Reference Pages, Obama rumors are still the number one source of Urban Legends, bar none. But, he may not get to keep the number one spot for long. […]

McCain vs Obama, next morning hangover

27 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

I thought I would wait until the next morning to sleep then write a final very short post. My initial impression is still my impression today. There was no clear winner of the debate last night. Interestingly enough, the comedian Chris Rock is saying the same thing today. However, it must be kept in mind […]

McCain vs Obama, timeline 70 minutes to end

26 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

They have moved on to Russia, but I am afraid that my eyes are glazing over. I am afraid that right now it is tit for tat. Unfortunately, Sen. McCain has just repeated the mistaken notion that Russian invaded Georgia without any provocation, despite the many articles that have been published in various USA newspapers […]

McCain vs Obama, timeline 50 to 70 minutes

26 September 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

The subject has just shifted to Afghanistan. Here Sen. Obama has made his most “warlike” remarks and insisted on a thorough involvement. Sen. McCain clearly stated that he regrets the great mistake that was made in ignoring Afghanistan. The people in the room just gasped because his criticism was so strong of President Bush’s policy. […]
