My Other Blog

This is not the Blog it was.

About this Blog

About Me
Jesse Liberty (JESSELIBERTY)

Currently working full time for Microsoft as Senior Program Manager, Silverlight Development Division (Silverlight Geek). O'Reilly Author.

You may be looking for my Silverlight Blog or my O'Reilly blog in which case, boy are you in for a shock!

This blog started out targeted at the Queer community with a particular emphasis on issues relating to those most marginalized. But then I needed a place to talk about other stuff. So here we are. It almost goes without saying that the opinions I express here are  my own, and do not necessarily represent the opinion of Microsoft, O'Reilly, or anyone else. Not even me, after a while..

Why is the presidential race close?

When is it time to call it racism?

 

What would this campaign be like if Obama were a member of the Keating 5 and was married to his second wife who had become addicted to pain killers? 

What would the Republicans say if  Biden were married to a member of an extremist party and if Biden himself had tried to censor books in the local library and fire municipal employees because they disagreed with him, and what might they say if Biden's minister said (as Ms. Palin's minister did) that Jews and Muslims were going to hell and that the conflict in the middle east is God's way of punishing the Jews for not accepting Christ?  How would the press react If Obama said that he "hates gooks and always will" as McCain did?

Which school you went to and how you did does not stand as a sole qualification, but what would this race be like if these were the resumes?

 

John McCain Barack Obama
  • Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in International Relations
  • Harvard JD Magna Cum Laude
  • US Naval Academy, Class Rank 894 of 899.
Sarah Palin Joe Biden
  • University of Deleware - BA History and BA in Political Science
  • Syracuse University College of Law - JD
  • Hawaii Pacific University
  • North Idaho College
  • University of Idaho
  • Matanuska-Susitna College

I celebrate that Obama is our first serious black candidate. I am ashamed this contest is close.
