A Word About Obama

Jesse Jackson said that Barack Obama was talking down to black males, but Obama has a good point: once you become a father, one should realize and take for responsibility for their child. They should pay child support, or be held accountable. I think Obama talks about real issues that affect real people. I know many single moms that fight really hard for child support. I also know many people who will do anything they can to get out of paying child support. They leave a job as soon as they're caught, and they have to pay. We owe it to our children to have fathers that are responsible and caring adults that make sure that they always can have food on their table, and clothes on their child as well as a roof over their head. I think Barack Obama would be more talking down if he said, "African American males should all get jobs and stop having kids."

As we all know, that's not a reality. Barack Obama speaks from reality, and the real question for our country is, "can we handle the truth?"

Making History

Besides my angry workday, I feel like having one of these kinds of chairs! Equipped with flamethrowers and all!

Perhaps our time has come in this country for some real change. I got home and turned on the news, and saw John McCain making a fool of himself (which he does so well).

Then there was Hillary who would not make any decisions even though she lost.

Then, when all was said and done, the one left standing was hopefully president-to-be, Senator Obama. "Change you can believe in," and I hope we can believe in you.

To John McCain: you don't have a prayer!

To Hillary Clinton: I never thought you'd get as far as you did, and now you need to let your opponent take you on as his running mate.

To Senator Obama: You have a big job ahead of you, way after the election in November! I hope that you can do what others have not, and live up to your promises, and get America back on track. First, on the domestic front (more jobs, universal healthcare, reestablish the middle class, lower the price on gas and oil, and don't let us rely on resources that could one day run out, save the environment), here's looking at you!
