When you are watching the speeches I know you must feel a sense of YES WE CAN AND YES WE WILL WIN IN NOVEMBER

right up until the talking heads show up to tell you that all that you thought and felt was incorrect.

She didn’t do this, she didn’t say that, she shoulda coulda woulda if only…
Just remember…YOU are REAL. THEY are the ILLUSION.
Thanks, Randi ! I needed that

Do you think that the media's attempt to hype ratings by constanting being negative on Obama or playing up the disunity will have a real impact on the election? I just want them to talk up the split in the Republicans if a pro-choice Veep is selected....let's see if CNN even says a peep about it.

I've been watching the primetime speeches on "The SPAN". Then I change it to a channel that I know won't be talking about the speeches.

All I ever wanted was to make a living while at the same time making a difference. I wish to enjoy my job while doing my job. Here in California being union has been a bitch. We have a small part of the work force with non union and the black market to compete against. This makes for job sites where the union ethic gets shit canned. I have pulled more knives out of my back than Bush has lies. With a democratic President bringing our jobs back to our shores by stopping the off sourcing, off shore bank accounts, corporate welfare in the form of tax breaks and supplements, the job sites can be returned back to workers.
I will not sell my soul for a job, I will not sellout my ethics, I have stood up to billion dollar company owners so I feel for Randi, I have been there. WE need our pride back, we need our country back! WE need our Constitution back! Don't Give Up! Don't Give In! We can be proud of our country once again, don't drink the koolaid! Vote for our laws being reset to fore father status! Stand up AMERICA!

Look, the election is simpler than 1964:
Vote for Obama, we survive, even thrive.
Vote for McCain, we all die in World War Three.
Simple.

Not to bad-mouth Rachel Maddow, because I really do love her... but look what they do to Rachel.
Rachel does not normally look like the way she does on MSNBC.
Normally Rachel (by her own admission) looks like a 12 year old boy.
Rachel as Rachel:

Rachel as TV Rachel:

Doesn't quite look like the same person does she?
Hopefully they'll let her be more herself when her new show starts on the 2nd, but I doubt it.

I think Rachel's hot too... it's kinda weird for me... I'm gay... so I like boys... and she kinda looks like a boy... but she's not... she's a girl... haha!
Rachel's really awesome though. I'm so happy for her.

I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but the media IS liberal biased. Over the last few days I've heard Randi refer to how "they" are making up lies in favor of the right. Hogwash. If anything, they're breaking their backs trying to put Nobama up on a pedestal. Just cause you folks want to sit around and think otherwise won't make it true.
So tell me, how in the world did anyone get that crazy idea? Anyone....anyone....Beuller....anyone?
Now if what you want is conservative talk radio, there's a plenty of that to go round.

IMO:
Most gay women are 'accused' of "looking like or dressing like 12 year old boys" at some point in their yearly adulthood!

OK, if there is a Liberal bias in the media, why is the media not asking questions about your candidate John McCain. McSame. Please tell me why they have taken Obama to task on everything and have elevated bull shit lies like Ayers. McCain has not been challenged on anything by the media.
Please explain why McCain has gotten a free pass.

You will need to provide credible links to sources that prove your position, that proves that the media is breaking their backs trying to put Obama up on a pedestal.
