Romney rules?
So as all political people are getting ready to watch the election results this evening and tomorrow morning, so i thought i would bring you this story that claims to predict the winner of the United states of America elcetion :
"The Redskins-Panthers game this Sunday could have quite an impact on Washington's chances in the NFC East while potentially breaking Carolina's season for good. But it wouldn't be surprising to see if President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney keep tabs on the game as well.
That's because the Redskins, in their final home game before voters cast their ballots, have become quite a predictor for presidential elections.
In 17 of the 18 contests in which the Redskins suited up before an election -- beginning in 1940 when the Redskins beat the Steelers and Franklin D. Roosevelt kept his presidency by vanquishing Wendell Willkie -- a Washington victory at home has signaled the incumbent party would keep the White House while a defeat has meant the opposite.
It's called the Redskins Rule, and it's fascinating."
So, what happened then?
Congratulations President Romney.....

Another Labour MP smears people with mental illness
We brought you the story last week of Labour MP smearing those with mental illness, well here is another
Kebab Time is not sure that lunatics want to be compared with Republican politicians.....
Fingers crossed for Obama.Now it's up to US to prove that they're not so daft as to let the lunatics take over the asylum

Just go Nadine!
Just when you think that politicians have stopped shooting themselves in the foot along comes Nadine Dorries to show that they are even more out of touch than we thought, Nadine has decided to enter a reality TV called "I`m a celebrity, get me out here" and according to Con Home she will collect 40k for it.
Now lets just put to one side that 40k over what the average wage is in the UK and that she is already paid 66k ( plus expenses ) a year to represent here constituents ( and also the fact she could be away on other side of world for 4 weeks) .
Con home states
"The ITV audience for 'Celebrity' varies from about ten million to a peak of sixteen million. It's not clear to me how much politics she'll be able to discuss but her hope is that she'll be able to introduce herself to an audience that would never tune into Question Time, the Daily Politics or perhaps even a main news bulletin. She argues that more people watch and vote in reality shows than in many elections. If that's where the people are, that's where she thinks MPs should be too."
The bit that gets me is this
" She argues that more people watch and vote in reality shows than in many elections. If that's where the people are, that's where she thinks MPs should be too."
Let me give my two pence worth, Voters and non voters are well aware of politicians and politics in general, in fact with the interweb many learn the truth a lot quicker these days. One of the main reasons people don't vote is that some thing is because politicians are seen (rightly ) to have their snouts firmly in the trough, some can get used to politicians lying and breaking their promises ( its what politicians do) , but to abandon your constituents for a month or so? Their are many of us that have mocked and taunted labour over Gordon Brown`s world tour since last election, the fact he is hardly ever seen speaking in the Chamber and the fact he has been paid quite a lot of money for doing so while neglecting his first job.
MPs complain that they are over worked and some even suggest they are underpaid (pull the other one, its got bells on it) , this will not go down well with voters and , in my opinion drag the reputation of our politics through the mud ( even more if possible), its a fact that Nadine herself acknowledges when she says
“‘I’m frightened of rats, but then again I do work with them.”
So my advice to Nadine is this, resign your seat before you enter the jungle as it is clear that you will not be able to fulfill your duties as an MP, that is your primary job.
Update
It seems the local paper is not going to abandon the local people
Unlike their MP....

Mitt : Your Lame
Its fair to say that i am so bored of the US Election campaign, it seems like it has been going on forever, while people debate who to vote for and all that i have been looking for funny parody ads/clips just to bide time till President Obama is re-elected (just my view and have said so for months now).
Anyway, i have just come across this one
Regardless of who your are backing it is a catchy little tune....

Another post that mentions Max Clifford
Ever since the video on this video got pulled of youtube i have been looking for it to reappear, for a strange reason it hasn't yet, even tho this one does not claim make the same claims (nothing about 14 year olds) it does again suggest that Max Clifford knows more than he is it letting on.
If Mr Clifford did cover up any illegal acts then i suggest he passes on that information to the police.
It should not be about morals and money it should be about the law!
And if anyone has a copy of the original video ( the one that got pulled) then get in touch.
