The LuLac Edition #556, August 29th, 2008













PHOTO INDEX: OUR 1968 LOGO, THE LATE LADY BIRD JOHNSON AND DAUGHTER LUCI AND GOP DELEGATE MICHAEL TALUTO.

CONVENTION WRAP

The Democrats ended their convention Thursday night with a big bang. The Obama/Biden ticket stormed Pennsylvania as its first stop highlighting the importance of the Keystone State. But there wasn;t too much coverage given John McCain’s big news today on Sarah Palin. One of the tributes at the convention was for the late Lady Bird Johnson. Here it is from YOU TUBE:



THE GOP

We’ll be following the activities of the GOP with Lackawanna County delegate Michael Taluto who will be blogging at the convention. Stay Tuned!!!

1968

Crown Prince Harald of Norway marries Sonja Haraldsen, the commoner he has dated for nine years in Oslo.........The Humphrey-Muskie ticket begin their campaign for the top jobs in Washington with absolutely no money in their campaign coffers in the aftermath of the Chicago convention.....Statewide, Congressman Richard Schweiker embarks on his campaign for a U.S. Senate seat slamming incumbent Joe Clark on the Vietnam War...Dr. Wallace Stettler becomes the 9th President of Wyoming Seminary, in Wilkes Barre City, the Council votes down the earned income tax and in 1968 the number 1 song in America and Lulac land was “People Got nTo Be Free” by the Young Rascals.

A slow week in '68?
Great job on the convention. I expect the same when the other bunch of bullshitters get together.
You are doing good work, Mr Yonki.
LuLac has become a daily read for me. Thanks.

The VP nominee picture you choose looks like one of those “we fixed her up to look like a teacher,
but this chic canl be bad! Remember the Adam Ant early MTV Video where the sophisticated lady strips? “Don’t drink don’t dance what do ya do”… This is a brilliant move directed at the dissatisfied ladies created by Hillary. She needs to step up and work hard to win theses people back for Barrack. It wasn’t just a woman they wanted, it was Hillary, Remind Em of That!!! The GOP VP candidate is no Hillary Clinton and nobody could make that case better than Ms Clinton. The hell with 2012, its time for a profile in courage like that of Bob Taft. She is still a MAJOR PLAYER and she can in my opinion win this election for Obama and be a Great American! She has got to ask, to implore, those who supported her, for the good of all of us, to vote for Obams/Biden!
