Because, even if we haven't all done so, we wish we had.

That's what we need a President for - to point us the right way, not the wrong way (*cough* GWB *cough*) ...

We just don't toot our horns as much ...

This is all directly attribiutable to the internal squabbles among the Dems. Enough with the petty crap already!! We are on the verge of self-destruction

So my question is how come McCain wasnt dragged thru the coals in the same manor for Hagee and his spiritual guide? Simple. Obama sells papers, gets website hits and that is where the true story lies.

Agreed I do think he addressed well but need to push it home for his non-supporters and independents who could be swayed by this. Expect tomorrow race-based speech to be the most watched in the campaign! We wait in hope.

GObama 08!

My son does not deny the father. He does not accept my appraisals, nor does he apologize for them. I look at him as someone who can be what I wished I could in many ways be. I see Barack in the same light. I want a man who can lead us to a broader vision of ourselves. And who can lead me away from the poisons that fester within. It's time to walk into the future, forward, not looking back to the divisions and meanness that has so defined us who lived them.

usually, i get lumped in as a boomer. i was born in late 63, so no fucking way.

"slacker" is the only distinction i knew of for 60's babies just prior to gen x, but recently i've heard "Generation Jones".

i have no idea what that means, but if i means i don't have to be in the same generation as president asshole, then i'm all for it.

This talk is about today, and Obama's saying let's turn the page isn't going to cut it.

This is losing him votes among swing voters in America who can tell what Josh says: that Obama is subtly telling mainsteream America to fuck off.
"Fuck off, mainstream America" isn't exactly the campaign Obama supporters said he would run, back when the argument was that this campaign could unite America and lead to a sweeping victory.

Now, "it's a generational thing, stupid," dissing the boomer generation, is yet another reason why Obama is not being the big uniter. It's not very smart to ask for votes in an election where most voters are over age 50 and also diss .... folks over age 50.

Look, I've read some way-out-there leftist diatribes in my time and I still have my own views. I still get to keep my own mind.

Hell, I even suspect John McCain doesn't believe the Catholic church is a "great whore" or believe that Katrina was a punishment for homosexuality. As the old quote goes, I am a human, therefore nothing human is alien to me.
