First dog.

Now this is interesting news.  In fact, this excerpt below mentions Fluffy’s breed the Bichon Frise.  And, without a doubt a very good choice for anyone looking for a robust lapdog.

“Relatively common no-shed breeds include poodles, bichon frise, Portuguese water dogs and Maltese, but these breeds need professional grooming, which can be expensive. Other breeds that have a tendency to shed less are Schnauzers, Westies (West Highland white terriers) and Scottish terriers, Zawistowski says.”

And most important about this article is the following:

"I'd like to know that President Obama has a dog," Zawistowski says. "When he has a bad day, what's better than having a dog walk over and say, 'Hey, things aren't so bad?'"

Sleeping Beauty

That's the way the Republican Party wants it.

In an attempt to get you more interested in this article a small excerpt is needed------ "As McCain and Democrat Barack Obama made their final pitches to voters over the weekend, Bush spent time at the Camp David presidential retreat. He has no public events on Monday or Tuesday, not even an Election Day photo op."

Gov. Sarah Palin

Gov. Sarah Palin speaks with a handful of reporters in Manhattan on Thursday.

Fellow Voxers following the American presidential race do you also view Gov. Sarah Palin as a politician that has something to hide from the world when she avoids the press like it is the Bubonic plague ?

For example according to CNN:

On Wednesday, the Republican vice presidential candidate gave her 3rd network interview, this time with CBS' Katie Couric.

In comparison, Sen. Joe Biden has given his 89th national and local interview recently, according to the campaign.

And now to add insult to injury (the kind that Palin is dishing out), the article states:

"I have never seen a presidential or vice presidential nominee, in my lifetime, be so inaccessible to the national media," said Howard Kurtz, a Washington Post and CNN media critic.

"The McCain campaign says that she is entirely qualified to be a heartbeat away from the presidency. If that's the case, surely she can handle some questions from mere journalists," Kurtz said.

Fellow voxers you know it is bad when:

Even former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said recently the country cannot afford tax cuts of the size and scope that the Republican senator from Arizona is proposing.

And to add insult to injury:

On deregulation, “Over the last several years in Washington, the Bush administration has been engaged in an effort to reduce regulations. McCain has supported that effort.”

And for you ones out their (world wide) that say -----I could care less about the US financial market----- you might want to rethink that thought for the domino effect might reach your mega city or even small village and cause you difficulties.

Consequently, advise your American friends to Vote for Obama for he truly represents "Change we (all) can believe in"

Now, after careful thought which one are you?

It is not often that I take the side of the GOP (source) but I also denounce this housing legislation as a bailout for irresponsible homeowners and unscrupulous lenders. However, through deregulation and “let the market be” approach that many conservatives hold dear to their hearts didn't help the present situation much. That said, I have a chance to hop upon my soap box and proclaim once again that: your one stop shopping religion “Deism” teaches self-reliance and encourages people to constantly use their reason for an iota of prudent thought could have prevented this mess in the first place.

Lastly, Deism teaches to "question authority" no matter what the cost. And asking the probing questions and weighing them against facts not fiction would save the tax payer much more in the long run than a bail out from the Government in the short run.
