Can YOU name Obama's accomplishments? I didn't think so...

A friend posted the following video on Facebook the other day, and I immediately had to post it as well. I normally ignore all of the political commentary surrounding political candidates, and do the research myself (in fact, we don't even have cable/dish in our house, so I am limited to the internet news anyway; and at the end of a hard day when I am wrangling with life issues, I usually don't need to see the world going to pot on tv as well).

But this is one of the funniest things I have viewed this campaign season.

This is SO typlical. Obama has done nothing in the Senate. I don't know that he did anything for Illinois, either (except preventing a completely innocuous bill protecting newborns from passing). He says he has a plan for change. But what is that plan? What are his accomplishments? We certainly haven't seen any reporting on that. Is the "change" that we are going to have a completely inexperienced person running the country? Is the "change" that he is going to allow the UN (or some other nation besides the US) to run the free world? Is the "change" that he is going to attack Pakistan? lol

I certainly think that this interview by Chris Matthews demonstrates the lack of substance behind the Obama fascination (or rather, the Obama messianic ideation).

That's good stuff. I'll tell you, as I think about moving to NYC, I get less comfortable with the thought of Commander-In-Chief Obama and more comfortable with the thought of President McCain. Does that make me a paranoid right-winger? Maybe, but that's okay.

Haha, that's funny. I just said the same thing to mom this morning. I'm almost to the point of getting a sign for the yard... ALMOST. Not quite. But almost.

By the way, I think I just coined a new word: "typlical." That was supposed to read "typical." :)

Nah, typlical reads just as well. :o)

To add insult to serious injury, the guy is a SENATOR from Texas!

As the great Inspector Gadget would put it, yowsers!
