And really if for nothing else you have to vote for him because of his daughters, they're the cutest thing I've seen playing there with Biden's
grandkids.
Apparently the day they came out on the stage after their mom spoke they were told there was a surprise for them and they asked if it was the Jonas Brothers

Are they kidding with this music?? It sounds like a theme from a 90s superhero movie.

Sadly in this country, the color of a persons skin will never be irrelevant.Skin color now is about as important as whether you were of Irish, German, or Polish ancestry was just a generation or two ago. Soon skin color will be as important as hair or eye color, especially as we become a nation of mixed-race people. |

After that glorious triumphant historic event, I can't wait for McCain's miniature rally in some high school auditorium.
It's hilarious that they're dead even in the polls considering one is being propped up as a superstar savior and the other is a cantankerous boring old fool. <3 |

you're joking, right? Unfortunately, I have a huge collection of film music scores, like hundreds of them. I dont know why. Even the sappy shit like Remember the Titans. You'd think I was gay or something.

Well as one of his "fantards" I did like the speech, which I thought was pretty much one of the best repudiations of conservative ideology I've
ever heard, but more important to me than me liking it was my 60-year-old dad who never has voted for a Democrat in a general election ever called me up
immediately after the speech to tell me how great he thought it was.
The streamers sucked and the orchestral music at the end was too weird/scary though. Loved the confetti and fireworks. Suck it Beijing. |

I liked the part in the speech where Obama promised to eliminate ulcers and other gastrointestinal disturbances from the planet.
