How about a Poehler/Palin ticket?

Seriously, this was the best rap song I've ever heard! And I normally despise rap.

For God Sakes, Go Change Your Underwear!

For the love of lurline, I would really love to know why people are voting for Barack Obama. No, seriously. I have--at least at this writing--some friends who say they are voting for the guy. But as of yet none of them can give me an actual reason why. Well, besides, change, hope, and all the other catch-phrases he's trademarked in the last year. If this is you, PLEASE tell me why you are voting for this man. I would seriously like to know the specifics.

If its solely for "change" well, then la-dee-dah, you're in luck! Change is a comin'...since neither Bush or Cheney can throw their hats into the ring chances are, come January you will have someone new in the White House. If you think its change solely because "well, he's a democrat and Bush is a republican and I don't want another republican like Bush" then you're just a moron and clearly haven't done your homework. If you can't name a reason without using the words "change" or "hope" then I am pleading with you. Do a little research online and find out just how much Obama *is* more of the same. Same hand-in-pocket, scratch my back, I'll scratch yours, golden rule politics that we've seen played out over and over.

"It would be so cool seeing a black guy as president!" Actually, I kinda agree with this statement. Not as an argument, but just a fact. It would be "cool." But geez, please someone who we could actually trust in time of crisis, someone who doesn't have his hand in the cookie jar so far down he can't even see his Cartier cufflinks. Someone who doesn't give me the freaking willies. And please, not the Stuttering Moron I saw during the debate last Friday.

Sidenote: I was in a room full of Democrat and Republican women while watching the debate and we all were offended when, after McCain gave a very heartfelt story of how he was asked by a fallen soldier's mother to wear his bracelet bearing his name, Obama says, "Yeah, I have a bracelet too." The immediate disgust in the room at his flippant attitude was palpable.

If you want real change then consider this: John McCain is actually NOT George W. Bush reincarnate. He's challenged both democrats AND republicans to get things resolved, he's the only candidate who saw this housing crisis coming since the early 2000s and tried to do something about it. He wanted reform to make Fannie Mae stop making bad loans to people who couldn't afford it. But it was blocked by the democrats. Why? Well, you really must view this link in its entirety. Admittedly, the rhetoric that comes with it is biased, but the facts that are enclosed within are entirely accurate: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3092189796090980338&vt=lf&hl=en

I know what Obama supporters are running from. Another moron in a suit acting like a buffoon. NO ONE wants that again. But do they know what they are running toward?

There is also a video on youtube about Obama being the only person who voted against medical care for babies born alive who survived abortions. See it here:

If after seeing these videos, especially the last one if you're a mother, and you still want to vote for Obama because of the word "change", then for fuck sakes change your underwear. Change the music on your CD. Change your hair color. Just don't elect this guy because you want "something different." Do your homework and find out what that "something" is.
