If this doesn't put a stop to Josh Feit's Hillary fascination, I don't know what will.

This is easily one million times cooler than going hunting. Obama just upped the macho factor. Maybe we'll see Edwards on the line of scrimmage.

Trey @2, never mind the issues. If the following doesn't make Josh Feit an Obama backer, I don't know what will:

As a young teen, Obama had the famous poster of a soaring Julius Erving affixed to his wall. He remembers it clearly: Dr. J's knee-braces, that right arm held high.

That's some awesome living up to stereotypes, there. I'm glad we all get to know that he's a real black man--he plays basketball! What a great support for our one-drop eugenics, huh? Maybe next we'll have an article in Gourmet about his favorite chicken recipe? Meanwhile, Sports Illustrated will run a story about John Edwards and NASCAR.

Or, um, maybe we can drop the silly race-baiting and talk about policy. Either way, really.
