Obama on UNITED America from “Meaningful Distractions”

with 4 comments

I saw this on Meaningful Distractions and wanted to preserve the video for my own selfish reasons, mostly to hear Sen. Obama’s inspirational orating over and over.  I didn’t know how starved I was for an eloquent and intelligent President–I thought I’d just become apathetic.

Maybe when this whole thing is over, someone can explain to me how the McCain-Palin ticket — which has gone around the country demarcating “real America” from “fake America” – someone can explain to me how this is the ticket that supposedly puts “Country First.”  They’ve put certain parts of the country first, sure, but not country as a whole.

Definitely check out the rest of the post.  It’s so worth the read.

Wow, Now That’s Scathing

without comments

“And if she’s a good enough likeness of a loudmouthed Middle American archetype, as Sarah Palin is, John Q. Public will drop his giant-size bag of Doritos in gratitude, wipe the Sizzlin’ Picante dust from his lips and rush to the booth to vote for her. Not because it makes sense, or because it has a chance of improving his life or anyone else’s, but simply because it appeals to the low-humming narcissism that substitutes for his personality, because the image on TV reminds him of the mean, brainless slob he sees in the mirror every morning.”
