Bill's Occasional Photo Blog: July 2007
http://wfbphoto.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 7, 2007. Too many photos are made during the middle of the day in light that can best be described as illuminating but not very interesting. If you venture out early in the morning (maybe even before dawn) or late in the afternoon (maybe even after dusk), you'll find that your photos take on a new look. Not very usable, is it? The sky and the sun have a bit of detail, but the trees are down in the mud. I can try adjusting the exposure to get some detail in the trees:. Later in the day .

Bush Bytes: All The News That Isn't
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/all-news-that-isnt.html
All The News That Isn't. You'd think that less than a week before an election, the Washington Post. Might actually be able to find some news. Yet on October 27, an article stated breathlessly that "Faulty Ballots Sent to Voters: 126 Erroneous Items Mailed in Latest Mistake by D.C. Board.". So the District's board of elections sent incorrect absentee ballots to "as many as 126 District voters." 126. Wow! And there are how many hundreds of thousands of voters in the District? What Does the World Think?

Bush Bytes: What Does the World Think?
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/what-does-world-think.html
What Does the World Think? For a couple of decades I subscribed to a publication that was initially called "Atlas" and then the "World Press Review" (or maybe it was the other way around, although I think not.) This was a magazine that collected articles from various publications- left, right, and center- from around the world, translated them, and provided them without comment for readers in the United States. But there is good news! Http:/ www.worldpress.org/. There's a Wikipedia article about WPR here.

Bush Bytes: Am I Terrified?
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/am-i-terrified.html
A friend noted that those on the right often say they're terrified of Obama and that those of us on the left say that we're terrified of Palin. What's to be terrified about, she wondered. Except for that, I'm fine with her being president. It seems to me that the right is afraid of the bogeyman, which is something the Republican Party has stressed over the past 8 years with its "we have nothing to offer but fear" campaigns. Those on the left fear a continued slide into mediocrity, or worse. Where I can s...

Bush Bytes: This Makes Me Sad
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/this-makes-me-sad.html
This Makes Me Sad. I asked my brother-in-law if he supported this statement:. Liberals hate real Americans that work and accomplish and achieve and believe in God.". Rep Robin Hayes (R., N.C.) on Saturday at a rally in North Carolina. Although he's a Bush-McCain-Cheney-Palin Republican, I expected him to repudiate the statement. That wasn't quite what happened. He replied with an argument that was even more ludicrous than Bill Clinton's "that depends on what 'is', is." It was pure bullshit. So this is wh...

Bush Bytes: Wow. WOW. WOW!!!
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/wow-wow-wow.html
Wow WOW. WOW! Side note: Both McCain and Obama are of the same race, the human race. One has slightly more pigment than the other, but they are members of the same race. But for now we'll overlook that scientific fact. Powell has known McCain for decades and says that the Arizona senator is a good friend. But he said that he's disburbed by the McCain campaign, the selection of Sarah Palin as vice presidential candidate, and the Republican party's xenophobic attitudes.

Bush Bytes: Educating the Uninformed
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/educating-uninformed.html
My response: I'm glad you believe in talking. After all, if you don't talk to those who some think are your enemies, what happens? War Keep in mind that the "leader" of Iran, has no real power. He is a figurehead. The real power is with religious leaders and they have not said the kinds of things certified nutcase Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said. Should we talk without conditions? As a matter of fact, Obama did this when he visited Israel in July of this year: One report, with photos is here. And Harretz...

Bush Bytes: Who Ya Gonna Love?
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/who-ya-gonna-love.html
Who Ya Gonna Love? A friend from West (by God) Virginia seems to think that I believe all Dems are faultless and all Republicans are crooks . Wrong. But this does seem to be the GOP's approach. When a Republican is found with his hand in the cookie jar, the assumption seems to be that it's the godless liberal media persecuting a wonderful family-values guy. The GOP closes ranks behind the guy. We go after the crooks and kick them out on their ass. R) Dwight D. Eisenhower: Too bad he lied about the U2.

Bush Bytes: Is Obama Perfect?
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/is-obama-perfect.html
No I know that Obama will disappoint me by something he does or fails to do. Any rational person knows that no president was, is, or can be perfect. I suppose there are people who see Obama in terms of the "great white (so to speak) hope", but I'm certainly not one of them. The Obama presidency will not do everything I would want it to do, but it will do far more than a McCain presidency could ever hope to do. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Bush Bytes: A Note to My Brother-in-Law, the Republican
http://bytebush.blogspot.com/2008/10/note-to-my-brother-in-law-republican.html
A Note to My Brother-in-Law, the Republican. I've edited this a bit from what I sent to my brother-in-law but, for the most part, it was my opinion a couple of weeks before the election and it is my opinion just a few days before the election. 8221; when I have questioned what the current administration has done. In 2000, I told my fellow liberals to get over it despite overwhelming evidence of voter fraud in Florida. That’s not to say it’s just Republicans who are at fault. I’m not...The election system...
