Obamunism

Communists of America unite! We finally have a real presidential candidate who holds our values dear. We support Obama because he wants to nationalize health care, take money from the rich to give to the poor, and make one class of people. Hooray for communism! Hooray for Obama! Hooray for Obamunism! (That whole democracy thing just wasn't working out anyway.)

Awesome shirt I found. Check it out.

Michelle Obama to Speak On Convention's First Night

Sen. Barack Obama's campaign announced yesterday that his wife, Michelle, will be the star attraction on the opening night at the Democratic National Convention in Denver on Aug. 25.

Following Michelle Obama on Monday, the "headline speakers" for the rest of the convention will be Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton on Tuesday, Obama's vice presidential choice on Wednesday, and Obama on Thursday. The convention will move that day to Invesco Field at Mile High Stadium, and Obama will officially accept the party's nomination before a crowd expected to reach 75,000.

Two of the dates will be rich with symbolism. Clinton, who came closer than any woman to winning a major-party nomination for president, will speak on the 88th anniversary of women receiving the right to vote, and Obama will give his acceptance speech on the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech.

The Obama camp had previously said that Clinton would speak on Tuesday night, although negotiations continue about whether her name will be placed in nomination. The New York Daily News reported that Clinton has raised the idea of being introduced by her daughter, Chelsea. Former president Bill Clinton is scheduled to address the delegates on Wednesday night.

The Obama camp and the Democratic National Committee said additional details about the convention and speakers will be released this week.

This is great, Clinton to speak on the anniversary of women suffrage, Obama on the anniversary of King’s famous speech. Any other symbolic dates the Democrats want to touch on? But, most importantly, Michelle Obama is going to be the opening act on Monday night. Are they setting her up for a great speech and to have it catapult her to the president race in future years? Let’s hope not…



Wonder why this is the first time she is proud of being American? Is it because of the "change" he is going to bring to America? Exactly what change is that? Definitely not good change... I can tell you that. Social and Economic justice is not a good idea. Sorry, if you don't succeed then it's because of your choices and decisions. The people who make it in this world are the people who make good choices and decisions. Why should successful people be punished? Isn't it the American dream to succeed? Last I heard, the American dream definitely wasn't sitting on your ass, popping out babies, and living off welfare. Unfortunately, it seems to be moving towards that more and more.

Obama, are you serious?

Barack Obama is the Democratic Party Nominee for President. He is a great speaker, wooing his crowd and supporters with his graceful rhetoric. He is said to stand for change, which I definitely think this country needs. But, unfortunately, Barack Obama does not stand for true change or the right change for that matter. All he wants to do is tinker the system to lean more towards the Socialist Welfare State that we have been nose diving towards for some time. He beats around the bush with the specifics of his plans, is inexperienced, is/was a member of a controversial church with a racist creed and is/was close friends with the pastor who he declared his spiritual advisor, is a flaming socialist, and worst of all… he is a dick and truly doesn’t love his country.



So, how does someone vote for a presidential candidate that does not respect his own country… which he wants to lead? Barack Obama even started to wear the American flag lapel again. This is obviously a move to increase his image of patriotism and elect ability. Last year he said, “As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides,” Obama said. “There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.” Too bad this isn't a real quote... but I wouldn't doubt if that's truly how he feels.

That whole town hall is full of these socialist, false intellectuals, and ignorant little kids who are caught up in the hype. Barack Obama acts like he didn’t realize that they hadn’t recited the pledge of allegiance... how would someone think that they already did that when they hadn’t? Then on top of that, he starts to recite the allegiance without telling anyone that he is going to recite. He didn’t allow for anyone to stand up and get ready. And that smirk on his face while he is reciting the pledge. What a dick.
