Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi meets with anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan in the United States Capitol
Cindy will have to obtain over !0,000 plus signatures but that should not be a problem, now should it? Flap assumes that the Speaker will win the Democrat primary election in June.
Take that Speaker Pelosi.

Hillary Clinton Watch: Elton John Fundraiser Nets Hillary $2.5 Million
Singer Elton John (L) greets Democratic presidential candidate and U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and former President Bill Clinton (R) as he takes the stage before performing a fundraising concert for Clinton’s campaign at New York’s Radio City Music Hall April 9, 2008.
Does anyone think that this fundraiser by Elton John for Hillary Clinton will NET Hillary any more support or votes in her quest for the Presidency?
Elton John used Hillary Clinton’s $2.5 million fund-raiser at Radio City Music Hall Wednesday night to stand up for women’s rights.
“I never cease to be amazed at the misogynistic attitude of some of the people of this country, and I say to hell with it,” said John, clad in a sequined black dinner jacket, red silk shirt and red sunglasses. “I love you, Hillary, and I’ll be there for you just like all the times you were there for me. Hillary should be the next President of America.”
The concert, billed as “Elton-Hillary: One Night Only” sold out just this week, with 6,000 tickets ranging in price from $125 to $2,300, according to a spokesman for the Clinton campaign.
But, Barack Obama has Oprah Winfrey’s support even though apparently SHE has backed off her support because of a fall-out over her partisan activity.
Writing at Politico.com, he suggests the aging empress of TV has paid a price for getting into the dirty business of politics with and for her man Barack. By August last year, a CBS poll found her favorable rating had plunged from 74% to 61%, still twice as good as the president but nearly a 20% drop.
MM suggests the FEC look at John’s activities since he is a foreign national (albeit our UK ally) and she may be correct.
Hillary does have a history with soliciting and collecting from foreign interests .
Flap does NOT think Elton John’s support for Hillary Clinton will translate into much more than a cash infusion to pay Mark Penn’s consulting bill.
American voters are more sophisticated than to accept a rock stars insistence that by NOT supporting Hillary Clinton that you are anti-woman and/or anti-women politicos.
But, the Federal elections Commission should look into this foreign national contribution business anyway.

John McCain Watch: Jane Fonda Endorses Barack Obama
John McCain is administered to in a Hanoi, Vietnam hospital as a prisoner of war in the fall of 1967. McCain spent 20 years in the Navy, a quarter of it in a Vietnamese prisoner of war camp. On Oct. 26, 1967, McCain’s jet was shot down over Hanoi during a bombing mission. AP Photo
Hanoi Jane Fonda has endorsed Barack Obama for President.Obama, who was recently named the most liberal member of the Senate by the nonpartisan National Journal, has sought to portray himself as the earliest anti-Iraq war opponent and tagged his sole remaining opponent, Sen. Hillary Clinton, with voting to authorize the use of force in Iraq.
The problem for those of a certain generation that endured the Vietnam War and the sometimes violent domestic conflict that accompanied it at home is that during Fonda’s controversial wartime visit to North Vietnam, she was photographed at a Communist anti-aircraft gun battery.
According to the photo caption distributed at the time, she joined North Vietnamese soldiers there in singing an antiwar song while preparing to shoot at attacking Americans.
And, here is Jane Fonda in some photos showing her cavorting and joking around with the North Vietnamese who were trying to KILL American soldiers and pilots.
Jane Fonda is a TRAITOR and her support of Barack Obama is her right but it is TOXIC.
Team McCain will NOW how an easier time in framing Obama as a far-left fringe candidate. Thanks Jane.

Cynthia McKinney Watch: McKinney for President?
Former Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D), who lost her congressional seat last year after her publicized scuffle with a Capitol Hill police officer, registered to vote in California — and is being pushed by some to run for president as a Green Party candidate, the AP reports. Despite McKinney posting a letter on her Web site last month, saying she is not interested in the Green Party nomination, a group called “Run! Cynthia! Run!” is trying to draft her as a candidate in California. McKinney and six other Green Party candidates, including Ralph Nader were nominated by the Green Party Convention in September, and McKinney has yet to remove her name from the ballot.
Only in Marin County, California.
But, should McKinney decide to tun she will be reunited with her old buddy Cindy Sheehan who is running against House Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi in another Northern California Congressional District.
Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, right, gathers with Cindy Sheehan Tuesday, July 18, 2006, at her campaign headquarters in DeKalb, Ga.
Stay tuned………

United States Senate Condemns MoveOn.org Betray Us Ad
Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, speaks as U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker, right, looks on during a press conference at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) for Defence and Security Studies in London, Tuesday, Sept. 18, 2007.
Remember the ad in the New York Times?
The United States Senate today voted 75-25 to condemn the ad.The most notable NO’s were Senators Hillary Clinton and Chris Dodd. Senator Barack Obama did not vote although he earlier had voted on a substitute resolution by California Senator Barbara Boxer.
This issue should make interesting general election debate fodder.
Stay tuned……

Rudy Giuliani Watch: Rudy vs. MoveOn.org
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPj-bpIeSTU&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fmoveon%2Eorg%2F[/youtube]
The Flap began last week and MoveOn.org began airing this ad in Iowa Monday.
But, will the ad have the desired effect of “poisoning the well” with GOP voters? Or will the ad highlight the argument that Rudy is the most electable GOP candidate against Hillary Clinton?
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=IjGYwhWy0ys[/youtube]
Flap thinks the ad as bogus as it is – Giuliani quit the Iraq Study Group when it became apparent he could not keep the time committment and the major conflict this would have on his Presidential campaign HELPS Rudy in Iowa and with national fundraising.
Stay tuned……..

Senator John Ensign Calls on All Democrats to Return MoveOn.org Contributions
Senator John Ensign, R- Nevada, calls on Democrats To return All MoveOn.Org Contributions.
“Today, ostensibly on behalf of National Democrats, Democrat front group MoveOn.org is calling a unanimously confirmed United States General a liar and betrayer of the public trust. Apparently the prospect of campaign funds is enough of an incentive for Senate Democrats to stand idly by while a respected General is maligned before he has even presented his report to Congress.
“If Senate Democrats are serious about moving our country forward, they will denounce this outrageous ad and return the campaign funds MoveOn.org has lavished on them as well as the donations made through MoveOn.org — the choice is theirs.”
But, Senator, MoveOn.org is the SURROGATE for the Democrat Party which is too weak to go on the record. The Democrats hide behind the skirts of MoveOn so they can elect Democrat Representatives in conservative red state districts.
Disingenuous and pathetic.
The Democrats should publicly denounce this ad and return the money.

Cindy Sheehan Announces Run for Congress Against Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi
Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan cries as she remembers her son Casey. She has announced her official bid for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s seat Californias 8th district.
Cindy Sheehan announced her intention to run for Congress against Democrat Nancy Pelosi in California’s 8th Congressional District yestereday. Pelosi is an 11 term incumbent and Speaker of the House.
Sheehan has NO CHANCE of winning in California’s heavily gerrymandered Congressional districts. She will run as an independent in the November 2008 general election.
Anyone want to bet she has trouble qualifying for the ballot?
Count on it…….
