You know what's going to be awesome?

When the United States captures Osama bin Laden.... Under President Obama's watch.

No Posting Today

Even though I try to post on all of my days off, today was spent with real-world stuffz- namely housecleaning.

But once I get my iPhone 3g, I'll be able to post anything from anywhere! Huzzah!

Maureen Dowd:

"Meanwhile, she wants another power-sharing arrangement. She will help Obama be king, if he lets her be queen of the women."

I'm sorry I said all those mean things about you,

Hillary.

Yay for this.

I have a confession to make...

I have a friend who goes to Mars Hill.
I know, it pretty much makes me an awful Progressive. I try not to think about it.
The thing is, she's really nice. A great person. She just happens to be into a completely socially-regressive faith. We don't talk about it. 

So it's really refreshing for me to hear things like this. People are welcome to their faith, but when it affects people of other- or no- faiths, it becomes a social problem. I understand that part of the Evangelical thing is evangelizing, bringing the message of Jesus to nonbelievers. And I'm fine with that, if it's on the streets or on the radio. But the courtroom and the houses of legislation are not appropriate places for evangelicism.

I'm glad to hear that the younger generation of evangelicals understands this.

Barack...

Don't go sounding like a hawk, now. The effectiveness of that method of American foreign policy has been disproven by the past forty-plus years. 

So watch it, 'cause I really like you.

Don't get my hopes up...

If you're just going to let them down, ABC. This is the most exciting headline I've seen all day.

We need ONE democratic nominee, and we need it now.

But why?

I don't understand the vitriol that Hillary supporters spew against Obama. How is it even remotely conceivable that McCain could be a better president for any one of these people? And what does Obama have to do with mysogyny? I'm being serious. When has Obama been anything but civil and courteous to Hillary, even when she seems to be acting as a potential spoiler for his presidential bid.

Is it backfire against the DNC for seating only half of Michigan/Florida, and giving 40-ish percent of Michigan to Obama? 

Does that really make McCain a better choice, a man who is anti-choice , anti-gay , and for a long occupation of Iraq.

I hope, I hope that this is all just blowing off steam, and that this important voting bloc of the Democratic Party will come to their senses and realize that Obama is an excellent candidate- or that, at the least, McCain needs to be defeated.

Hillary has a duty to turn them in that direction, and an obligation to do it without attempting to use their votes as political capital.

Get in Line, Hillary

Obama has set up his running-mate vetting panel. Hillary's going to have to apply for the job, just like anyone else.

How does that feel on your entitlement?

I drink your milkshake!

Why, Hillary, why?

Well, I'm stumped.

Did Hillary expressly not concede because she's pushing for a VP spot? 

Unnamed political capital?

More cable news face-time?

What the hell is going on? Why would such an intelligent woman play as if she were holding her delegates and supporters over Obama's head as leverage for something, especially when he doesn't need her delegates anymore? He has his own delegates now, thank you very much. This sort of nonsense is just the icing on the cake for Obama supporters- especially Obama supporters such as myself, who were originally Hillary supporters but were turned off by her increasingly negative campaign tactics and general tone of entitlement. (Ugh!) 

I feel like I'm stuck in a bad horror movie. She just won't go away.

And oh yeah, Clintons: Thanks for ruining my memories of the Clinton era. Bill looks like a jackass now.

AP Displays Sexist Bias

By acknowledging that Obama has won.

Ding dong!

Dare I hope against hope? Wish against wish? Pray that our long national nightmare may soon be over?

Well, sort of, almost...

"The advisers said Clinton has made a strategic decision to not formally end her campaign, giving her leverage to negotiate with Obama on various matters including a possible vice presidential nomination for her. She also wants to press him on issues he should focus on in the fall, such as health care."

AAAGAGAGAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

A concession without conceding.
A concession that she cannot win, that Obama HAS in fact won, but a refusal to.. Concede.

My head hurts.

We're Never Going to get RID OF HER

Hillary Clinton is going to bully her way into the Oval Office, I just know it, and then we'll have eight years of secretive double-dealing and deceptive doubletalk. Dah!

It makes a man want to cry.
