I was wondering about what roll off the tongue, stick in your mind slogan relating to a Public Option would work with the nation.

Our movement needs a slogan that works well.

One that decimates arguments against us and makes our argument simple.

Americans understand Medicare.

"Medicare for all who choose it" explains the concept quickly and cleanly.

There are many more.

Follow below for a list from me, I'm sure you can do better.

I live quite close to the Boca Raton Resort and have just come home from the general direction of the Palin event being held sometime this evening.

The main thoroughfare in east Boca Raton is US1 known as Federal Highway, at the intersection of Camino Real and Federal is where the Palin protesters and gawkers are setting up in hopes of her driving by.

This area has little room on the sidewalks and the traffic is busy but it is now crowded with people.
About 2/3rd's of them have signs supporting Obama-Biden or razzing McCain-Palin in one form or the other. They are all over the entire area.
I tried to get a photo but my phone camera was not up to the challenge of delivering a quality product.
Only on the Northeast corner of the intersection are the few Republican supporters with their signs.
The crowd numbers about 100 or so at the moment.

I believe they all will be dissappointed.

For those of you going, you might want to stand at the rear entrance of the Boca Raton Resort on Mizner Boulevard. Why after the break;

We are witnessing the Republican Party campaigning on fabrications, lies, and distortions of epic proportions.

Today, the major newspapers are reporting about lying and Republican strategists now say that their lies and distortions are, in essence good for them and there is too little time left for correcting the images they constructed.

I have an answer BILL CLINTON

I am 56 years old, I graduated high school in 1969, the Vietnam war was raging, Richard Nixon had been elected to his first term, two genuine American heroes ML King and Robert Kennedy bodies lay in their graves fatal wounds to their heads made by assassins bullets, and America was divided by race, age, religion and politics.

There was so much happening, now 39 years later, so little change, why?

Please stick with me for a narrative from a Boomer's perspective.

This diary may be more of a collection of observations than a resourced, documented effort to inform people of news.

Observations from other diaries headlines; Republicans fear running for office this year, Republican Party out of money, Republican fundraising is weak, Clinton loses ground to other candidates, Ron Paul rakes in donations, Mike Huckabee sounds like a populist(he isn't).

What could it all mean?

More after the break.

The speculation from South Florida is Florida will have a newly appointed Senator Jeb Bush by incoming Governor Charlie Christ a strong likelihood.

I expect this will frost Katherine's pumpkin but good which will have absolutely no negative impact on the Florida Republican party as she is quickly headed for her place as a historical footnote.

Good news is that will mean a chance at Florida having two Democratic Senators again after the 2008 election.

Tomorrow the whole world will be watching to see If we are turning our nation away from the madness created by the Bush Administration.

Every person that cares about (and many who don't) the direction of our country has a stake in the outcome of Tuesday's election but, we are the only ones who can vote.

No Corporation can vote, no union can vote, no party or pac just us people that's what it is all about.

We have seen it for years on end now and may I apologize for this diary looking more like a rant than an information based tool for all to use, but, President Bush in all his glory, has begun to crack under the strain of "staying the course".

Last week's interviews and press conferences have shown all that watched that our President is so personally invested in the correctness of his vision for the world he can no longer take questioning, much less criticism, of the positions he holds.

Evolution theory tells us that adaptation to changing circumstances is the only method for life to sustain itself. More after the fold. Read More

Prevailing Wage Suspensions But Where are Profit Controls

If the President has decided The Katrina emergency justifies prevailing wage controls to be suspended then the corollary of Windfall Profits made by business need to be addressed in a WWII type manner due to this dire national emergency has passed.

This is the only correct manner to attack the problem the President has identified.

Mr.Bush should resurrect the WWII laws governing profits and excess profits before proceeding with the suspension of the rules governing the labor expense side of the equation.

Therefore I expect the President tonight in his speech to address these matters lest the remainder of the citizenry be reminded on a daily basis of the mentality that governs the GOP with all good elected Democratic Officials discussing in no uncertain terms the image of SLAVE LABOR and PLANTATION OWNERS rebuilding the hurricaine ravaged Gulf Coast and New Orleans.

Rather than a UNITED effort that encompasses hard work and sacrifice for all rather than hard work and sacrifice for the many and WINDFALL PROFITS for the CONNECTED.

Who will be the first member of the press to ask President Bush this question: If Carl Rove is indicted,and convicted(I think I remember Daddy Bush pardoned his cronies between Indictment and trial on about Dec. 25 1992)will you tell the American citizens that you will not pardon Carl Rove because pardoning criminals, who are your political partners, sends the wrong message about how a democractic republic operates?

I was at my local library today and pulled the Newsweek magazines from July 1974 just to make a comparison between today and that summer long ago.These magazines devoted page after page to the Watergate story with detail unheard of in today's media.I hope everyone will take a look back at the detail of the investigation from those times and see what we are missing from this decade's political tragedy. My quick summation is:

What we don't have; Any type of Congressional investigation

What we dont have; A minute by minute summary of all the comings and goings of the White House Staff and the President.

What we don't have; The retail Media following this story and documenting the minute details of the investigation and delivering it to their consumers in a timeline that removes the "Spin Machine" from the picture. Read More

It is about time that we begin to point out to all that will listen that there is no need in talking to any GOP spokesperson ever again.The message they COLLECTIVELY speak is always in sync with all their comrades. I use the word comrades only to illustrate that the GOP operates on the CENTRAL PLANNING model.
For a Party that glorifies the ideal of rugged individualism they operate in the exact opposite manner.I dream of the day when people in the MSM cut off any GOP mouthpiece each time the GOPer with the phrase THE TALKING POINTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN COVERED.IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU PERSONALLY CHOOSE TO ADD TO THIS DISCUSSION?
This should go for all parties to the discussion on all sides of the debate.
I believe when this happens we will be on the way to better government that serves the people rather than the sleazy characters that SERVE us today.
