Obama Denver speech 8/28/08

Boy, do we need someone like Barack Obama right now. Hillary Clinton would have done fine. Basically, any Democrat would do to begin to restore the damage that Bush has inflicted on the world, this nation, and our Constitution.

After eight years of Bush, this is an extremely important election. Bush stole the vote in 2000. Then they stole it again, in 2004, this time from Kerry with all the shenanigans in Ohio and Alabama.

They have bankrupted this nation, financially and morally. Pre-emptive, unprovoked war is illegal under the Geneva Conventions. Technically, Bush and Cheney are war criminals. Technically, they should have been impeached, if not for collaborating obstructionists like Pelosi and Reid.

Hey, wait a minute, this post is about Obama's excellent acceptance speech in Denver. The speech was missing some of the lofty rhetoric we have become accustomed to with Obama. But, hey, it's time to drop the schtick and schtick it to McCain and the Republicans, and Obama showed some flashes of doing just that in this speech.

If the vote goes honestly, with no tampering of voting machines, Obama/Biden will win it in a landslide. I think, I hope, the public is finally catching on to the fact that Republicans just cannot govern anything worth a damn, and Democrats get better results in just about every sector measureable.

Since the Republicans cannot win on the facts, they'll make up stupid shit and see what sticks in the minds of the voters. They are truly a disgrace to their party.
