I have some hard hitting, fascinating news for you:

You know how that Reverend of Obama's is now on every tv channel, spewing his hate filled garbage on every broadcast?

You realize if we did the tiniest little thing he would stop?

It's called:

STOP LISTENING

Really, no one gives a shit. You can be a bigot and be from any ethnic group. I've heard enough of The Rev to be able to ascertain that according to my beliefs, he is a bigot. And...what god does he worship? That isn't the god I grew up with. I'm pretty sure that god isn't a ten foot tall pissed off black man with a fro. I'm pretty sure that god looks like all of us, just blended together. Or Alanis Morissette.

I'm so tired of this election. I'm embarassed to consider myself a democrat. Are Hilary and Obama the best we can do? The best platform the democratic party can come up with to run from happens to be socializing healthcare and getting us out of Iraq - laudable goals, to be sure (especially getting us out of Iraq - never should have been there in the first place) but nothing that materially will actually make a difference to the lives of American citizens.

Why isn't there a candidate who can....balance the budget? tax companies who offshore labor? revamp the IRS and current tax law, reorganize and restructure the INS (because the problem with immigration is two fold - rampant overruns at the border and the backlog of legitimate immigrants tied up in the efficient machine that is the UNITED STATES FEDERAL GOVERNMENT). And stop messing with the market; you aren't economists, you don't get it. Leave it alone. Where is a candidate who cares about America's reputation in the world? Where is a candidate who cares about the value of the dollar? Where is a candidate that recognizes that private life is that just - private - and should remain so with no interference from any form of government?

Oh, wind of change my ass. The only things that Obama and Hilary have to offer that are different are the color of their skin and their sex. Otherwise, they are still politicians interested in being politicians. They don't represent us. Never have, never will.

Why not quit worrying about what a Democrat might do and look at the absolute disaster the Republicans have been. The Sherrif of Nottingham couldn't have done a better job of taking from the poor and giving to the rich. And you're basing Obama on some fuckin' preacher.Who when all's said and done simply told some UNPALATABLE truths.Come on now.Listen to Obama. Be inspired.

The thing is: Dem or Rep - it doesn't matter. We have so many processes and procedures and laws in place one person truly cannot change the way the country has been run - we have two hundred plus years of precedent to argue with. I also plan to foretell the coming of the economic apocalypse. I hope I'm wrong on that one, but I'm beginning to wonder if we won't see an actual economic depression that starts in the United States and ripples globally.
