Barack Obama: Truly Presidential.

An unshakable man, an unshakable president.

Barack Obama represents the America that I want to live in and be a part of.

Though I have to say, at the beginning of the dem’s convention, I didn’t care much for it. The Media was over-exaggerating everything. The small group of Hillary fanatics were making a small uproar that the media jumped all over to make a story. It was all emotion and no rationality, but all that changed when Obama took the stage for his speech.

Speeches smeeches, you may say. It is all rhetoric! Well, yes. Isn’t it always? When is anything a politician said guaranteed? I mean, let’s take McCain. How do you know that McCain will do anything he says? You don’t! So what makes that different from Obama? So, if you are going to go with rhetoric, go with the one that makes the most sense, the one that has the most logic behind it.

“Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton!”

Why are we even talking, writing and/or having a serious discourse about Sarah Palin? She is a ploy, a tool, an insignificant, yet dangerous gamble that John McCain is willing to risk with your country just so that you, the women of America, will vote for him. John McCain thinks you are so stupid, so shallow, so superficial that you will see a women on a ballot and vote for him. No matter his policies, no matter his temper, no matter his judgement, no matter his willingness to gamble with your country, you will vote for him just because you couldn’t get Hillary. At least, that’s what McCain thinks you will do.

“Fellow POW: Why I Won’t Vote For McCain”

The FACTS about the infamous POW era of John McCain told by one of the 600 fellow POW’s.

Snipped from Military.com.

Here is a bit of background about the author of this incredible story:

Doctor Phillip Butler is a 1961 graduate of the United States Naval Academy and a former light-attack carrier pilot. In 1965 he was shot down over North Vietnam where he spent eight years as a prisoner of war. He is a highly decorated combat veteran who was awarded two Silver Stars, two Legion of Merits, two Bronze Stars and two Purple Heart medals.

Unlike most people, I won’t start out with “McCain, our greatest patriotic hero,” and place him on this pedestal above the rest of us. Yes, he was shot down, captured and tortured, but does that make him any better than than the rest of us “normal” people? Does that make him infallible? Or, how about … does it make him presidential? No, it doesn’t. It makes him a person that has been through a lot of shit. A person that has seen the nastiest of human nature and made it out alive. But, he did it because his other choice was death, and he obviously wasn’t ready for that choice.

You may think I am amazingly brash, rude, unpatriotic or just plain mean, but I am none of those labels. What I am is rational, logical and objective. I respect those that respect others, and John McCain does not respect many. He lies, panders and does not follow through with his word, even when the word is about torturing POW’s. Yes, he said he would never support torture (I even wrote about it in this article months ago). I thought, “There is a man with principles and honor.” Well, I couldn’t have been more wrong.

Exxon: $11,000,000,000 Profit In 2nd Quarter

Snipped from AP.org.

Way to go America! Just in case you can’t read such large numbers, the title says 11 billion dollars in one quarter, that’s just 3 months! And don’t forget, that is NET profit, not gross. Net is after you subtract ALL expenses, and that is what you actually put in your pocket. From all of you continuing to purchase Exxon-Mobile gas, you just made them the largest net profit EVER from operating as a US based corporation. While many of my classmates can’t go to class because they can’t afford the gas, you keep rewarding Exxon for their unethical treatment of the American public.
