Get Your War On
… is a painfully funny web comic by David Rees that’s been running since just after 9/11/2001. Warning: adult language and themes.
Now there is a weekly animation of the comic:
Neil Young – a conversation with Charlie Rose
I really respect Neil Young as an artist and as someone who acts on his beliefs. This is an hour long conversation with Charlie Rose.
Communicator-in-chief
Obama is clearly the more gifted orator. Maybe one of the best in a long time. What value is there in giving a good speech? I believe it is one of the most essential attributes we need in a modern President. It certainly is effective in rallying organizations, and his has been amazing. This video of Obama addressing his campaign staff in Chicago is exhibit number 10,356.
9:57 “Because we won, we now have no choice. We have to win.”
McCain was BRUTAL
Wow. Wow.
Mischke is inspired
Mischke, a local AM talk radio host, gave a wonderful monologue this afternoon on how Obama’s historic moment last night is a real inspiration. I couldn’t agree more. Worth a listen.
James Fallows wrote about Mischke in The Atlantic in 2000:Mischke’s Moment – 00.09
Obama 2008
I’m watching Barack Obama give his speech on TV. He’s a few miles away in St. Paul in front of a enthusiastic crowd. He’s thanking Hillary, with so much more class than she showed in NOT conceding the race. Now he’s on to the general campaign and addressing John McCain.
“What you won’t see from this campaign or this party is using religion as a wedge or patriotism as a bludgeon.” Now that’s change I support!
McCain is campaigning for Republicans to keep control of the White House. Obama is campaigning for the Presidency of the United States of America.
Go Obama!
