Obama Soft on Crime: Pardons Turkey
President Barack Obama is being targeted by some on the right for being soft on crime after pardoning a Turkey yesterday. While this was the first pardon of his short presidency some worry that it sets a a dangerous precedent. How after all, they wonder, will he stand up to terrorists when he can’t even take [...]

National Teabagging Day
Teabaggers across the nation are gathering in large groups of 1000 or sometimes 2000 to protest paying taxes today. If your like me your probably confused that people would protest taxes given that Barack Obama will be lowering taxes on 95% of all Americans. So as a public service to the teabaggers everywhere here is [...]

It is almost Christmas time and I’m sure that my readers will be heading off to one or more large family gatherings. If your families are anything like mine there are bound to be people who you don’t normally associate with that you will be forced to make nice. Well lots of Christians seem to have trouble talking with Athiests so Im sharing this helpful video from Laci. Enjoy.

We’re Back
Categorized: Miscellaneous
Sorry for the long delay and absence but Summer and I are BACK!!! We have even brought along our new project Talk Topeka for the fun. Now that all that election hoopla is over with we can concentrate on doing what we do best, making fun of the fundamentalists who are trying to run this nation into the dark ages.
So look for a fresh new … erm … look and a renewed energy. I honestly can’t say how excited I am to be back at WWJV4.com and I hope that some of our old readers are still around. So check out Talk Topeka, it just launched and its still trying to find its sea legs, and look for even more blogs to be rolled out over the winter.
McCain on Roe vs. Wade

Of course feminism and women’s rights are about a lot more than just Roe vs. Wade but its still important to remember why winning this election is important to the fundies. Its video like this that makes we wonder how any liberal progressive could ever consider switching to McCain. (h/t Feministing)
Oh yeah, and I’m still alive. Just taking some time to figure out what I’m going to do when I grow up with graduation a month away. Scary.

Obama, Clinton Wrap Up Historic Campaigns
Categorized: Democrats
Tagged: 2008 Election, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton
Yesterday we saw the final votes cast in one of the most amazing and historic primary campaigns in our nations history. I don’t need to go into all the many reasons why this year has been one that our grandchildren will learn about in school. Two of those reasons are painfully obvious just by looking at our top candidates.
Even though Clinton and Obama stayed practically tied in every measurement in the end there is a clear winner. I have truthfully said this whole time that I would fully support any of our top 3 for president and I think that most Democrats feel the same way. So even though I threw my support behind Obama a while back, today is the first day that we can say that Barack Obama is the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Hold on to your pants, now its going to really get interesting. Watch these two give their speeches last night. Obama gives a great speech and I think Hillary does as well. Some may have wanted something different from her but I think her supporters are all happy. I know I am.

Bill Clinton’s Last Day In Politics?
Categorized: Democrats
Tagged: 2008 Election, Hillary Clinton
I highly doubt that, but this is what he said today to a crowd in Milbank, SD. I’m not reading too much into it but it’s an interesting thing to hear with all the rumors and speculation about Hillary’s campaign.
“I want to say also that this may be the last day I’m ever involved in a campaign of this kind. I thought I was out of politics, ’til Hillary decided to run. But it has been, one of the greatest honors of my life to go around and campaign for her for president,” said Clinton as he began his speech.
Anyhow, I just wanted to post that and see how it plays out over the next few weeks. No matter what Hillary decides to do I will support her decision. Even though I decided to back Obama I have a ton of respect for the Clinton’s. I think that she would make an excellent president (or VP) and I hope that her supporters are mature enough to realize that no matter what the last thing our nation needs right now is 4 more years of failed conservative policies.
I will go on record and say that I can’t see Hillary dropping out today with Montana and South Dakota voting tomorrow. After those voters opinions are counted and weighed I can see her dropping out and supporting Obama.
Let me know what, if anything, you think this means.
