A return of the greatest hits….Rolling out Wright

Rick Davis, campaign manager for the McCain camp, has announced that in the last two weeks the campaign may well pull out the Obama/Rev. Wright controversy for the final weeks of the campaign.

I don’t know weather to laugh or cry. I mean after constantly being told that going negative is exactly what the nation does not want to hear, you pull out not something new, but something that Hilary tried to use against Barack back in the democratic primary.

Why not spend the next two weeks doing something you have yet to do in my opinion. Tell me that if you are made President what you plan to do, I mean other than get Bin-Ladin, cause for real, that is great and all but what do you plan on doing after that?

Hello…..is this thing on????????????

The Audicity of My Hope!

Today on October 14th some polls show Barack Obama ahead in the polls by 14 points. I will admit to you all I am a little scared. I am actually allowing myself to think that we might win this. Since the "selection" of 2000 that gave us George "W" Bush there has been a little part of me that had lost all hope that we the american people would ever get a fair shake, that the playing field would ever be equal.

The ecenomy tanked three weeks ago (well the ecenomy tanked a lot longer ago than that but for the sake of argument) a people started hurting. McCain appears to still have no plan and Barack has stood head and shoulders (literally) above his competition. this financial dark cloud has certinally had a silver lining.

The race has shown an ugly truth that still exist in America. A truth that some white Americans didn't want to know existed. Racism is a lot more alive in this country than they wanted to know or admit. Even without the use of the word NIGGER, the spirit of the 1960's has seemed to make a retun apperance and it is getting harder and harder to ignore. turns out I was not being so sensitive after all.

Has it taken the dawning plus eight years of a new Millennium to put this country onto the track of what America is really what it is suppose to be about. The great American melting pot, the land of opportunity, the place where you can in fact be anything you want to be?

Yes there have been casualties along the way, those who had set themselves up as heroes of the Black community. Seems they had a seperate agenda that would only work if we were kept bogged down in excuses and situations where they got asked their opinion. Guess I will be shopping for some new heroes.

I know the actual election is still aways off. three weeks and one more election is like Christmas Eve to a twelve year old. It seems an eternity away. But where that little part of me said no, it is now saying HOPE!

A friend sent me this picture today. It is very powerful and moving. To me from this date on it will always be a inspiration. Every time i think something is to big for me to do, every time I think something is beyond my grasp, I will go back to this image and I will carry on!


Maybe it will inspire you as well.

Who the Fuck is “That One”?

As many of you did this evening I settled in for the second Presidential debate/first town hall meeting. Everything was going along fine. There was the usual points/counter points being made and As Obama was looking young energetic and knowledgeable, McCain seems at times to be teetering (literally) across the stage while trying to engage the audience.

The conversation turned to Energy and McCain in his old time folksy jokeresqe speech began to discuss who voted for a failed energy bill. He then referred to his opponent, a fellow senator as “That One”!

Screech Freeze Put on the Breaks! What did he say? Who the fuck is “That One”! Let me tell you a little something about me. I was raised by my grandmother, back in the days when you could whoop/beat your kids within an inch of their life for displaying behavior you deemed inappropriate. My grandmother was also the main person in me learning to read. Which in turn lead to my love of speaking and writing and all other things literate. She would have never ever (I have proof) allowed me to refer to anyone as “That One”. She would deem it rude and disrespectful and she having grown up in West Virginia racist. She would have in fact slapped the taste out of my mouth!

That One huh???!!! I mean someone explain to me how in this race where we have skittered along the cusp of racism on so many little levels. We have made it thru the Obama the terrorist, Rev. Wright hating America, and Michelle being proud of her country for the first time, terms of elitism, calls that Obama is uppity, lipstick on a pig, what on God’s green earth would allow anything in you to refer to your opponent as “That One.”

Well that is it, I am done! I gave some money to Obama 08 but now I am going out door to door. I am searching the net for blogs supporting McCain and those undecided and I am doing everything possible to make sure that this (possible) racist as far away from the White house as possible.

Also before he ran out of the Town Hall (his strong suit) he refused to shake Obama’s hand when they all met in the middle of the room.

Point OBAMA!!!!!!

This is moving...just take 5 minutes and listen.

For McCain 13 is an average number

Today I present further proof that when it comes down between the Obama’s and the McCain’s, Barack and company really are the elitist that everyone says they are.

Newsweek check the vehicle registrations for the two families running to be the first family. What they reported was very telling.

The McCain’s have a choice when heading out to their local Bashas’ grocery store they can take

Now those uppity elitist Obama’s figure they should not be like the rest of us. When they head to the Hyde Park Co Op for their caviar and fancy cheeses they roll in their

Well it is clear to me that Barack and company clearly can’t relate to the average American when it comes to buying gas or road trips or going to the grocery store. Cindy and John have 13 cars and 13 is clearly our lucky number!

Elite Proof

Turns out I have been wrong all this time and that Barack Obama really is an elitist..
