Re: Obama Obroad
The Daily Show's coverage of Obama's trip, "Obama Quest". The opening titles for the segment alone makes it worth the watch...

Re: Obama Obroad
I'm just hoping for August to go by quickly so we can turn our attention to the debates between Obama and McCain. Granted, there isn't a whole lot of anything that hasn't been scripted and rehearsed but I enjoy the punching and counter-punching. If only Bush had to stand up against Obama, I'd really enjoy that bloodbath, but as it is I think Obama will effectively slay McCain once the debates have concluded.

Re: Obama Obroad
What I'm wondering is who the hell is John McCain surrounding himself with? It seems, not too long ago, that McCain was the maverick of the Republican party, shaking hands and rubbing shoulders with liberals and idealists, bucking the system, and making a distinguished nuisance of himself. NOW, once he gets the nomination, he's deciding to play it safe? He's where he is because people believed that he was different and dangerous and possessed of the rare pride that forces people to do what is right even though it might be politically harmful. Like Sean, I really used to respect the guy, and now I really just don't know.

Re: Obama Obroad
Off-topic I know - but I did enjoy the Daily Show's commentary about this next 6 months being the low point of American democracy.

That is quite a list of douchebags. Talk about coated in teflon.

Re: Obama Obroad
I find it incredible how seemingly impotent Congress has been against Executive excesses, even when the Dems have the majority. They should subpoena these guys, and arrest them if they refuse to appear or testify. No one is above the law, and this Executive privilege is bullshit.

Re: Obama Obroad
Well, it's not quite a congressional enquiry - but Condi Rice is visiting us here in NZ - to hang out with our Foreign Affairs muppet - who's embroiled in a small donations scandal at present - and one of the university associations offered up a reward to anyone who was able to make a successful citizen's arrest on Ms Rice.



Not much point really - and the police put the kibosh on it - but good on them for trying.
