Because he knows that we are all Americans and it doesn’t matter if we live in small towns or big cities…”We All Love This Country”

You can either search congress for the ‘anti-americans’.Travel only in the ‘real’ America while dividing yourself from the rest of America..You can keep throwing every attack you can find, whether that be visiting his dying grandmother on a campaign plane, or because he said in down times people hold on to their religion.

Or, you can unite and believe “in the future we can build together..”

Why Obama?

…if one voice can change a room, then it can change a city, and if it can change a city it can change a state, and if it can change a state it can change a nation, and if it can change the nation it can change the world...

If you can listen to end of that and not feel hope. Not feel inspiration, not feel that “Yes, we can…” Yes, we can be better, we can do better, we can do anything if we stand together…. then Vote for McCain because there is nothing more I or anyone else can do to help you decide.

If you would rather listen to the same old attacks that lost McCain the Republican nomination in 2000? Tune into Fox news or watch any McCain ad, because he has hired the same attack dogs that George Bush used against him.

But if you want change, If you want unity, if you want an end to the last 8 years of division. Vote Obama.

Why Obama?

Sure, it’s easy to be cynical and say it can’t be done… One voice can’t do anything. One man can’t change anything. Why should we hope for anything?

There has never been anything false about hope…. When we have faced down impossible odds, we we’ve been told we’re not ready or we shouldn’t try, or that we can’t.. Generations of Americans have responded……. Yes we can!

Why Obama?

Because… with him we can be the America that is prosperous, caring, respected, feared and envied.

Don’t roll your eyes… Yes, we can.

I am a Drudge reader. I don’t share his politics, I think he’s dangerous to Hollywood movies and over all I think he’s a nut. But he’s a master at getting the scoop and his site lays out everything in a nice, neat, easy to read package.

Today though, I think something in him broke.

He really can’t be this incensed. He really can’t think this is newsworthy enough to take up the entire computer screen. Not even the tsunami that killed 500.000 people got that much space. The Iraq war didn’t get that much space. Saddam Hussien’s execution and. Benazir Bhutto’s shocking assassination didn’t get that much space. But Hillary Clinton referencing RFK’s assassination warrants this much ‘shock and awe’?

Does it really? This the news I should take the most interest in?

-After weeks Myanmar is finally allowing AID groups to come in and help.
-Tornado’s tear through Kansas
-Court rules the FDLS had their kids stolen from them by the state of Texas

But the news that I need to be aware of is that Hillary Clinton said something stupid.

I understand Chris Matthews walking around with a boner when this story broke. He hates Clinton and anything she says he takes to a whole new level of bizarre. I expect that. Just as I expect Sean Hannity to excuse every mistake the Bush Administration makes. And to be honest, I expected it a little from Matt Drudge. But this? This is just sick.

I guess I’m supposed to be mad at her or something. I still haven’t figured out what the reaction is supposed to be. She has been hounded and hounded over staying in the race and she said something stupid. It was a valid, but stupid, point. What it wasn’t was a code to get Jason Bourne to take action.

I’ve been told that the reason I should be mad is that people are already afraid that he’ll be assassinated. What!? If you and he are that afraid then maybe he needs to step down and go home because this isn’t little league, this is the office of the President of the United States and unfortunately crazy people out there have shot at them before. But guess what, none those presidents were black, so maybe he has nothing to worry about.

Did it ever occur to the Obama “Lets take this and push it out of control by saying it’s racial” spin room that the same people who don’t want a black man as president might not want a woman either? Gee, I don’t know when the last black leader was assassinated, but I do know when the last woman leader was.

The media is not supposed to influence people with their personal agenda’s. The media is supposed to inform people about what is going on in the world around them. The Op-Ed pages are supposed to be where the personal opinions and influences goes. If this explosion of Hillary-Hate has done anything it’s shown me that Drudge isn’t media. He isn’t the news-mogul I always thought he was and even though I didn’t share his beliefs I still respected. I still respect him and I will still read his page, but from now on the blinders are off and I see that he is just the print version of Andy Rooney. Or the un-funny version of Bill Maher’s “New Rules”. That realization makes me sad because now I have to find another news source, one that isn’t trying to incense me over a stupid remark from one candidate and trying to hide from me the preaching and teachings from the other candidates past. I’m an informed adult and as such I want to read the news and make my own decision. I do not want a recluse deciding for me what is and isn’t important.

The funny thing about all of this. Sites like TMZ and Dlisted are looked down upon because the sell gossip. But you know what, they don’t have an agenda and they don’t spin it. When Brittany breaks down, they report it. They don’t twist it or skewer it. They just give it to you raw. Yet they are looked upon as something lower than real media. I guess that shows you where the American media is at. News isn’t the raw ugly truth anymore, it what Matt Drudge’s opinion says it is.
