I didn't understand why Barry went to Hawaii alone.

Michelle probably hates the woman, but what about the kids?

photo op.... he made sure we all knew he was going... he made a few chosen visits on his way...and kept himself in the lime light regardless of his hiatus from the 'campaign trail.'  Pulleez, what a fraud.

Yeah, but she dies one day before her grandson finds out if he is to become the president of the United States of America.

It might be better that way. She would have been so disappointed

Quick to judge, huh?

What do you call this?

This whole campaign has been such an eye-opening, self-image-changing kind of experience for me.  In 3DHS, though I am not that much younger than a lot of you here, I've always had the feeling that I was the "youngster" who was full of schadenfreude over every little Bush "administration" disaster and slightest misstep.

I held a lot of members here in high regard because they were able to give me some clarity on a situation and seemed to act in a manner befitting an adult when I felt my behavior was sorely lacking and immature; but, for the last three to four weeks, those same adults I hoepd to emulate have sunken to depths that I have wallowed in.  Depths, that over the years, I have found are not befitting proper, respectful debate and have sought to stay out of.

There has been a sense of desperation, an air of fear from the right in here.  And I'll be totally serious, I feel bad about it.  It is depressing.

I'll feel good tomorrow when I take my son with me to vote.  I'll impress on him the sanctity, duty and privilege of the process when I allow him to touch the screen to cast my vote for Barack Obama so that he'll be able to tell his children that he was alive and participated in some way in the election of President Barack Obama.

And, if everything works out the way it appears that things will work out, I'll cheer for Obama's victory tomorrow night but I'll wait a couple of days if I can to come back to 3DHS so that I can enjoy the moment without the tones of bitterness that, I'm sadly sure, will pervade the posts in the coming hours and days.

I don't which "elders" have let you down, or why you think they have, but i suspect that you really really don't want to spend the next four years defending every misstep Obama makes.

=========================
I suspect that most of the good Obama does, at least some of you bozos will say are missteps.

Depends on the definition of good and who defines it.
