They Moved First
This is another one of those Republican Typicals. The McCain Campaign (or at least one of their staff) admitted that McCain will lose if the country stays focused on the financial & economic mess.
So what do they do? They start smearing Barak Obama. They attack his middle name, as if that alone implies anything at all. They’re sowing fear. Doesn’t matter if the fear is justified or even that there’s any agency at the target-end of the fear, there just has to be fear.
Of course the McCainers will return fire on you by bringing up the web video on the Obama website discussing McCain’s participation in the last bailout (S&L anyone? Bueller? Bueller?).
This is the part where the Republicans excel: initiate the attack, then trot out The Shrug, and in so shrugging, they manage to slip through the holds and attempt to stand there, wounded that someone attacked back. Except they drop the “back” part: O, Woe is Us! They’re trying to unfairly attach us to the Keating Five thing-thing! Why, oh, Why would they do that if they’re not evil????
Reprehensible.
Senator McCain, can we please talk about, like, the world falling down around us? Pleeeeease?

I think you are the author I'm looking for. Could you tell me how to get a copy of RocketLibrarian for my wife's ebook and old iMac? It still uses classic and I lost it when the computer imploded. Any help would be great. I kept the main folder but I get errors now about UUID not found. I assume it is something in Control Panels or Extensions. Thanks.
