I've always liked Janis Ian. Just heard this one. Thought it was fun, and so true!

From the Dred Scott Case to Barack Obama
This is what I see when I look at the pictures. . .
In the background, the Old Capital Building, where the Dred Scott case was heard . . .
In the foreground, the first, serious, black contender for President of the United States. . .
And in between, 100,000 people who represent how far we have come and the change that has already taken place in the years in between.
And it brings me to tears.

Condescending Contempt
That's what McCain appears to have for Obama. His facial expressions, rolling eyes, and obvious displeasure during any time Obama talked coupled with the tone of his voice when speaking himself was unbelievable. I have always respected McCain even though I have deep disagreement with his positions on many things. After tonight, he no longer has my respect. I'm looking forward to the breath of fresh air that Obama will bring us over the next four years.

The Royale
I'm sitting at the bar of the Royale waiting for our takeout order. This place is great. The bartender knows what I drink. Just kind of shoots the shit while I wait. It's the corner bar like CHEERS we all look for. Just bought "Southside for Obama" t-shirts. Will probably come here tomorrow night for the dabate.
