This is a very simple theory put to test, and it seems it is paying huge benefits. Watch as this blind man rock climbs seeing with his tongue.

This is hilarious and sad at the same time. These guys have made a parody of the conservative’s PR campaign to destroy any kind of real health reform.

This is what real inspirational leadership is like!

Just in case you missed Obama’s … ahem, President Obama’s (God that sounds good!) speech, here is a small portion followed by a link to watch it.

I am always interested in different perspectives on what it means to be human, especially when they come from sources that are vastly different than your average Joe Sixpack. So, when I cam across a video of an autistic that makes an amazingly successful attempt at explaining what it is like to have autism, and how she views her life submerged in a sea of “normal” people, I was absolutely astounded. Here is an angle that I have never heard before, so I thought I would share this experience with all of you.

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.

McCain, the most absentee senator in the 110th Congress,
will lie about anything to get your vote!

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.
