Positive Obama thread

Thank you for your concerns.  She seems to have worn herself out and is on antibiotics now.  We adopted her from China and don't think her bio-mom had a lot of prenatal care or nutrition because she was tiny and sickly even though reportedly not a preemie,  The good news is she's doubled her birth weigh and even made it onto the growth charts, finally!  She also appears to be one of the most intelligent infants we've raised and definitely the best at expressing her needs, especially at 3:00 in the morning!

 LaPhoenix:  I absolutely agree with you.  Michelle Obama is a class act. I feel that way about both the Obamas and would be proud for them to represent our country.  I didn't like Biden at first,but after seeing him speak at the convention and debates, I definitely decided I like him as well.  McCain almost defines the term "Freudian slip" with his "that one" and "fellow prisoners" and other snafus.  If it's not Freudian, it is at least a sign of dementia.

Amy, Darn it!! I forgot to get my margaritas made so I could take a shot each time!! Sad to say, I can't drink because of my meds, so guess I could pop a dark chocolate next time he repeats his "my friends" refrain. Borrrriiinng!

Anna, Hope your daughter is feeling better. I have a 16 mo. granddaughter that we (hubby & I) often keep overnight. I feel your pain......or at least sleep deprivation. And thanks for the compliment, I am truly honored. I should probably just stick to this thread, since the "other one" makes me sad that some people are so blinded (by McCain's white hair, you think?) they can't see the truth. Luckily, they are in the minority now. So it's Obama/Biden all the way.

I too think Bush & Cheney should be impeached or imprisoned for their war crimes. I don't care if they are out of office in less than 4 months. Too bad they can't be separated from that golden parachute coming to them for the rest of their lives. Of course, they are soooo bad, maybe that will shorten the years we taxpayers have to pay nincompoops who rose to the level (actually below I think) of their incompetency! LOL

And now I hear McSame is saying it's not time to talk about the economy, but time to talk about the characteristics of Obama and that he (according to McSame & cronies) isn't ready to be President. Hogwash!! Obama will be a phenomenal President. He is smart and he sees what' been happening in our Federal Government--he sees the foxes who didn't guard the henhouse as they should have. Lots and lots of Bush/Cheney's peeps should do some jail time.

The next debate should be the final act. McSame reminds me of someone in one of Shakespeare's plays. Anyone else find that so?

Laura...I love you last comment about the "backyard!"  Well ladies, the republican's have enough angry energy for the entire universe.  Don't give any back to them.  They are wallowing in it all by themselves.  I opened my portfolio today....uggg.....down from where I intially started.  And, I may take on a part time job until things turn around.  That sucks, however, you do what you have to do.  I still have a boat load of medical bills that my insurance didn't cover.  So, I am putting off any further testing until that's dealt with.  Its sad that we live in a society where you have to put everything else over your health care.  And I pay $800/mth in health ins.  It's ridiculous.  Another banner day on Wall St.  That needs to be worked on.  Angry Troll is not going to win this thing.  Don't let him and the rest of the mob get to you.  Our OBAMA is taking it all the way to the White House!!  My daughter told me today of her friends parents who are voting for McCain because if Obama wins, it will turn the blacks against the whites.  WHAT???  I said well, they might want to reference their bible since they claim to be Christians and go to a passage that says something about judging others!!  And, maybe they want to look at Obama's family.  He has a little of both in there.  This is so insane, its not funny.  How do they say they are for God and believe in the bible but yet they do everything the opposite?  I don't get it.  But..I am continuing my Obama Happy Dance!!!!  Obama '08..it's almost here!!!!!

Watching the Bethlehem video I thought I was having a flashback to the Vietnam protests.  Nice to know the reactionaries are still throwing out the "get a job!" and "commie-socialist" jabs.  All that was missing was, "get a haircut!"  

Very funny, and hopefully prophetic, comment Laura.

Ladysuz,

Don't fear them, you'll just be playing into their entire game.  They are fully based on fear.  Scaring their flock into what they want.  Their entire platform will fall apart if their sheep break ranks and think for themselves.  I think we need to ignore them.  It really is the best method and then focus on what we're working for.  Obabma is going to win.  Keep the focus and attention on that.  If they must be angry and ignorant, let them do it on their own time.  When the troll launches his angry little commercials, mute him.  When the rest of his people go on their angry march and they air it..turn the channel, don't watch them, don't give them any of your energy at all.  When our man Obama comes on, turn it up!!!  Do the happy dance!!!  Let the positive energy go!!  It works and its working!!!  Be the quiet strength that Obama is!!  You can't help but feel his positive energy spill over!!  I say it all day long and I fully believe Obama '08..it's ALMOST HERE!!!!

Little-G, you're right.  We have to stay focused on the win, eyes on the prize.  Obama summed it well:

"I think that folks are looking for something different," Obama continued. "It's easy to rile up a crowd by stoking anger and division. But that's not what we need right now in the United States."

"The times are too serious. The challenges are too great. The American people aren't looking for someone who can divide this country - they're looking for someone who will lead it. We're in a serious crisis - now, more than ever, it is time to put country ahead of politics."

I think McCain is going to realize soon enough that his latest tactics aren't working and change course yet again.  Today's polls, which would reflect reaction to the debate and the Ayers stuff, show Obama's lead widening.  Those people at the rallies are the hardcore base, the people who would vote for McCain no matter what.  He's wasting his time and endangering his reputation appealing only to them.  They aren't going to win the election for him.

Enjoy your rally, ladies! 

LAPhoenix..Thank you for that quote!!!  It's uplifting!!!  As we need!! 

Ladies....I hope you get to the rally!!!!!  I'm sure it will be awesome!!  The last time Obama was in Portland we had a turn out of over 75,000 people!!!!!!  The vibe was tremendous! 

Just wanted to chime in, before I lose it.

I will be so glad to cast my vote and let this next month be behind us....Election decisions and PINK HELL all in one month is to much....

LuAnn...I can't wait for it to be over too.  As hard as it is, don't let them anger you.  That's where they gain their power.  From angry people.  Barack is going to rock this thing.  I know he is.  And we will turn this thing around.  We are over do.  And, as bad as things are, in a way things needed to tumble down.  Otherwise, we would have kept on building ontop of bad, like it has been.  Now..we have no choice but to begin from the bottom up.  And build it right this time!!  As far as the troll and his side kick (I refuse to use their names as I think that just gives them energy) they will tumble with the rest of the sh*t that is rolling down hill.  They are angry, prejudice people.  We have no need for that in the US.  That type of people had their day, unfortunately, but now it is OVER!!  They see it, and its making them even madder.  So..we remain steady and know that Obama IS the next President!!!  And we know the majority of us have a collective thought that we will bring this country to its full potential.  Not that potential of the old, rich white man that is out for his own good and the good of his buddy's.  All of us need to stick together in this, for the good of all of us!!! 

Obama '08..it's almost here!!!! :-)
