The hell with politics; let’s deal with something really important, like the end of the world tomorrow:

CERN Stargate Triggers Fears Of What Could Be Unleashed
Currently, the world’s largest operational supercollider has a circumference of about four miles and is housed at Fermilab near Batavia, Ill. The new particle accelerator CERN is building, however, is 17 miles around and will have seven times the energy of Fermilab’s Tevatron accelerator. As WND reported earlier, some scientists have expressed concern that the Collider’s capability of slamming protons together at an unprecedented peak energy of 14 trillion electron volts could create black holes on earth or hypothetical super-atoms called strangelets, either of which, according to some theories, could expand in massive reactions to completely destroy the planet. WND also reported some of those scientists are suing to delay CERN’s plan to fire up the Collider on Sept. 10, hoping more safety studies will be done before unleashing the Collider’s power.

CERN, an acronym for the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is no stranger to doomsday predictions about its research. Author Dan Brown, famous for writing “The Da Vinci Code,” wrote another novel called “Angels & Demons,” about antimatter stolen from CERN to build a bomb. The book’s popularity prompted CERN to create a webpage devoted to debunking the rumors stirred by the novel. Internet conspirators have also pointed out the organization’s logo, constructed from the drawn paths of three supercolliders, resembles the organization’s name surrounded by the numerals 666, a number Bible prophecy assigns to the end-times Antichrist. Others have whispered that a statue of “the Indian god of destruction” Lord Shiva, given to CERN by Indian dignitaries four years ago and displayed outside the building, is proof that the organization is destined to destroy the world.

Mark your calendar: this Wednesday might not be a great day.

The DEM/MSM continues the media meltdown.

Second point:

McCain leads Democrat Barack Obama by 50%-46% among registered voters, the Republican’s biggest advantage since January and a turnaround from the USA TODAY poll taken just before the convention opened in St. Paul. Then, he lagged by 7 percentage points.

Uh-oh. Is it even remotely possible that an ancient, doddering, balding fossil like McCain can best the Barack Hussein Obamessiah?

Dear Readers:

If you’ve seen some of these cartoons before, apologies. I still have no computer at home and created this post on Friday. I hope to have my “new” old desktop (with an as-yet-unidentified flatscreen) up and running sometime next week. In the meantime, know my sadness: ensconced in my Sierra Nevada mountain aerie, politics on the radio, on the television, and me unable to write about it.

Heavy sigh. I can hear the withdrawal symptoms rapidly (rabidly?) approaching.

Hope your weekend is wonderful!

Violence Worker had an excellent post on Friday which essentially distilled down the major differences between not only the candidates but the elemental philosophies of the Demorats and the Republicans — and even further, the foundational philosophies between Leftists/Socialists and Conservatives. Negativism vs. Positivism.

VW wrote in part:

I think the biggest difference between Obama’s speech and McCain’s speech was the difference between dependence and independence. Obama told us what government was going to do for us and McCain emphasized that we should be out there doing something worthwhile.

To which I write: precisely. I commented:

And that, dear readers, is what I determine to be the difference between the two philosophies.

As John McCain concluded in his acceptance speech:

Stand up, stand up, stand up and fight. Nothing is inevitable here. We’re Americans, and we never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history.

Amen.

Folks:

This is just the proverbial tip of the iceberg; expect the scare tactics and the outright lies and falsehoods about the McCain/Palin ticket — and particularly about Sarah Palin — to commence. Expect to be unloaded upon by the DEM/MSM with both barrels and then some.

Isn’t it ironic: the Demorats and Feminists indicating that Sarah Palin is “unfit for politics” because she needs to stay home and tend to her children. So I suppose, then, that only completely childless women are eligible for politics because, after all, the husbands can’t care for the children? And in all fairness, shouldn’t the men be completely childless as well? Continue reading, please.

A disappointing development: Dr. Laura Schlessinger, whom I generally admire, came out earlier this week and penned an article regarding Sarah Palin which read, in part:

I’m stunned – couldn’t the Republican Party find one competent female with adult children to run for Vice President with McCain? I realize his advisors probably didn’t want a “mature” woman, as the Democrats keep harping on his age. But really, what kind of role model is a woman whose fifth child was recently born with a serious issue, Down Syndrome, and then goes back to the job of Governor within days of the birth?

I beg to differ — and rather vehemently. I disagree completely that Palin is not a competent female with adult children. The issue of the Downs child is essentially moot, save the infant portion. Downs children — and this is directly from NDSS — require generally no more “intensive care” than any other infant or child. Palin’s is an intact, healthy family. To denigrate Sarah Palin because of her less-than-perfect family is preposterous.

In commenting on her article live on the air, Dr. Laura also indicated that Palin should make a statement about her daughter’s pregnancy situation. Again, I couldn’t disagree more. You do not, and I repeat, you do not take one of your children and lambaste them in public. Sarah Palin should do what she will in her private life and handle her daughter’s unwed pregnancy in that fashion: privately. In my opinion, shame on Dr. Laura Schlessinger for her stance. I’ve listened to her time and again state that one parent should primarily be available for the children — and in this case, that happens to be Sarah Palin’s husband Todd.

As Dr. Laura Schlessinger knows, no situation and no family and no individual is perfect — herself included. She does no one any favors by intimating that the Palin family is disfunctional and that Sarah Palin is incompetent.

If Sarah Palin is incompetent because she has younger children, I’ll still take an entire nation full of Sarah Palins and her family as opposed to what the Leftists and Socialists have to offer: death.

Again: shame on you, Dr. Schlessinger.

And the rest of my readers and those in support of the McCain/Palin ticket: be forewarned. We’re in this for the Long Run. We have only glimpsed a brief tip of the Lie Iceberg Express that’s running at full throttle, helmed by the Defeatist, Elitist Media/MainStream Media complex. You know American journalists — the finest media that staid east coast Limousine Liberal dinner parties can buy!

P.S.

Guess what? Obama and McCain are tied again according to a CBS poll. You mean that the Obamessiah cannot manage to pull completely away from a doddering, balding fossil like McCain and his evil, gun-toting bimbo running mate??
