I was also going to post a link to the article titled "Barack Obama offers a Beautifully Packaged Lie" but the link has died, and I was going to post a link to a video, with text of Obama's speech in Berlin and a link to the interview of McCain with Outdoor Life magazine but I have lost those thinks. If you can find any of those, let me know.

Please take the time to vote this November.

Why is it when ever I actually get really excited about voting and know I'll actually remember to vote, we get crappy canidates who will most likely destroy our country more.

On sie A) we have a man with no experience, who lives in lala land and who had no back bone to speak of- but his VP is like God Politican Numero Uno. On side B) we have man who may be conservative but at least has his head somewhere in reality- but whose VP is totally Satan in a blue dress. God now I want to vote but it would be a lose/lose situation. Life sucks.

Gah I know! These articles didn't really help me much but I had hoped that reading them would help someone else. Did you watch the debate last night? Total draw.

Parts of it. I loved how the paper described it as "90 minutes of polite jabs". LOL Both are such charming speakers that you can't trust what they say.
