Barack Obama TV Segment

I enjoyed the TV segment Senator Obama presented last night. It was well organized.

Now, if people in America is serious about a new direction for this country, how can you not vote for Senator Obama.

Lets take a look back for a moment:

He have definitely change the way a political campaign is organized and maintained. His "grassroot" movement has proven that you can run a well respected campaign. The use of text messaging and his interactive website is great. Change #1

His acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention where he accepted the nomination outside in an football stadium with over 85,000 people abroad. Change #2

His televised segment last night. Wonderfully put together. I would say he put the nail in the coffin last night. Change #3

He has continue to show the world that he can be a good leader of this great nation.

McCain criticizes paper for not releasing tape

Here we go again!

An Associated Press Writer from the AJC writes,
"Republicans John McCain and Sarah Palin accused the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday of protecting Barack Obama by withholding a videotape of the Democrat attending a 2003 party for a Palestinian-American professor and critic of Israel. McCain and Palin cited the paper's position as evidence of media bias. The Times has endorsed Obama's candidacy. If there was a tape of John McCain in a neo-Nazi outfit, I think the treatment of the issue would be slightly different, McCain said in an interview with Hispanic radio stations. Palin said the Times should win a Pulitzer Prize for "kowtowing." It must be nice for a candidate to have major news organizations looking out for their best interests like that. Politicians would love to have a pet newspaper of their very own, she said."

Did you know?
McCain also has ties to Khalidi through a group that Khalidi helped found 15 years ago. The Center for Palestine Research and Studies has received more than $800,000 from an organization that McCain chairs. Huumm!!!!!

Now, I grew up in the East lake area back in the 1970's and 1980's. The projects, East Lake, was known back then as "Lil Vietnam". I had some friends that did a lot of bad things. They were friends because I grew up there. I didn't believe or participated in any bad things with them, but if you listen to McCain and Palin, then I'm a very bad person right about now.

I joined the military back in 1992 and served until 2006. I work in a medical facility and I'm married with 3 kids. I pay my taxes and I donate to charity. Yet, I'm a bad person because when I was 8 yrs old until I graduated from high school because I knew some really bad people.

If I have believed in the McCain/Palin logic, I would have been a totally different person today.

If this country believed in the McCain/Palin logic:
1. We will still be slaves today.
2. We will have no right to vote.
3. We will still be in the back of the bus
4. We will still have separate restrooms and water fountains
5. We will have no chance for advance education opportunities

Because the McCain/Palin logic is guilty by association and once a Spade is always a Spade.

CNN's Campbell Brown Comments

CNN's Campbell Brown comments on Senator Obama decision not to take public financing.
She quotes:
"One year ago, he made a promise. He pledged to accept public financing and to work with the Republican nominee to ensure that they both operated within those limits.
Then it became clear to Sen. Obama and his campaign that he was going to be able to raise on his own far more cash than he would get with public financing. So Obama went back on his word."

BACK ON HIS WORD?

My sister called me today and invited me to a Halloween party this Thursday PM. I said yes of course. Later, I realized that my 7 yr old son has a tee-ball game that same night, so I called her back to cancel. Did I go back on my word?
No, after having time to think, I made a decision not to attend the party. I felt like it was in my best interest to cancel.

Six months ago, I booked a cruise to the Bahamas for me and my wife. A few weeks ago I decided to cancel and get a refund due to the economic crisis we are in. Did I go back on my word?
No, after thinking about current economic conditions, I made a decision to change my past decision. I felt like it was in my best interest to cancel.

Both of these examples was hard for me because I love my wife and sister dearly, but, as a responsible person, sometimes I have to make decisions like these in order to make things work. It may not always be a popular decision, but I try to make the right ones.

We need a President that will make good decisions to get this country back on its feet.

We had 8 years of a President that make bad decisions and tooooooo stubborn to re-evaluate that decision and make a good sound decision.

We had 8 years of a President that don't want to listen to our Allies or Enemies to try to help ease tensions across this planet.

So to all those who wants to hop on the Campbell Brown express of thinking....................

SO WHAT!!!!

Senator Obama made an initial decision. After evaluating that decision, he made a decision that he felt was in his campaign best interest. He put his trust in the American people donations. And it has paid off. What a good decision.

Now, don't forget to watch his speech tonight, after all, he paid good money for it :-)

Amazing!!!

It's Amazing that in the year 2008, I have read and witness so much hidden hatred lately. This whole idea that the "redistribution of wealth" is something new and bad for America. Cum on! people, why don't you just come out and admit the obvious.

You don't want an African American President!!!!!!!

Redistribution of Wealth:

My taxes help fund the $10 billion war in Iraqi

My taxes help fund the $700 billion bailout for the wealthy executives on Wall Street

My taxes help fund foreign countries who hate us dearly

My taxes help fund companies that send jobs oversees

My taxes help fund new explorations to drill for more oil

My taxes..........

My taxes..........

My taxes..........

Well, you can finish if you want to. Its never been a problem of redistribution of wealth for the wealthy, only when someone wants to help those that really need the help.

Prayer solves everything.

My suggestion is for a lot of people to start praying about their Hidden Feelings!
