         <title>Obama&apos;s Digital PR Firm</title>
         <description><![CDATA[I was catching up on my stack of unread BusinessWeek's when I stumbled across an article entitled "<a href="http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/08_27/b4091000977488.htm?chan=search""><u>Obama's Secret Digital Weapon</u></a>." The article is about Blue State.  Teaser paragraph:
<blockquote>Blue State was founded in 2004 by four former members of Howard Dean's Presidential campaign. Other firms were already selling software to help candidates raise money online. But Thomas Gensemer, a former venture capitalist who, at 31, is now Blue State's managing partner, says he and his associates wanted to use such tools to mobilize grassroots support for progressive candidates, causes, or products. </blockquote>]]></description>

         <title>Paging Hewitt: Obama Video Idea</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Paging <a href="http://www.hughhewitt.com">Hugh Hewitt:</a> could we make this another contest? Promote it on the radio and blog? <br>
<blockquote><strong>Video Parody Idea:  "Rezko: Save 15% or more in 15 minutes" </strong>
Geico Source Material:  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7InXFOSsRug">Jed Clampett Ad</a> | <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42NcaL6IWi8">Celebrity Translation Ad</a> | <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3F3qzfTCDG4">Caveman Ad</a></blockquote>
The vision is to leverage the popularity of Geico TV and radio commericials to inform the general public of Obama's involvement with Tony Rezko in buying his house. <strong> Geico says you can save money by making a simple phone call.  Obama may have done just that with Tony Rezko. </strong> Catchy. Simple. Hopefully clever.
<br>As I currently have neither the time nor talent to create these videos, I thought perhaps we could open source this ideas to blogosphere.  With our powers combined....]]></description>

         <title>Fry Day-Soggy Fry Up </title>
         <description>It&apos;s the Friday Fry Up, and it&apos;s rainy and icky here...so not much to be said....

Last week this blogger met the local limited government candidate who is trying to run against Jim Moran. Amit Singh, you can check out his website at www.Amit08.com. The Republican primary is  going to happen very soon between Mark Ellmore and Singh. It will probably really be of little interest since in the end Jim Moran has been in office for a long time and doesn&apos;t seem to be going anywhere...The best shot the Republicans had of getting him out of office was years ago in 2002-2003 when he was caught swearing in public and making anti semitic statements. Or maybe it was when the Congressman got caught fighting with a prostitute in the streets of Arlington one night...a few years ago...but no one seems to care now...

Anyways....

         <title>Hard to Believe...</title>
         <description><![CDATA[There are rumors inside the beltway from Stacy McCain that <u><a href="http://rsmccain.blogspot.com/2008/05/was-it-over-when-germans-bombed-pearl.html">Hillary will drop out</a></u> by June 15. 

That is hard to believe since Hillary should have dropped out at least twice by now, once when Obama won so many important states to start and again when she got caught in the Bosnia lie. Well..there is also the Bill factor, can she quit and hand it over to someone else when she has made it so clear that she has sacrificed everything herself and cannot stand for anyone else to have what she has paid so dearly for in her raging codependent relationship with Bill.....

This brings to mind, then who will McCain pick for V.P.? ]]></description>

         <title>Who Has the Honor?</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Last week this blogger was appalled to hear a local women spouting on the DC metro that the military is now letting known pedophiles into the military. It was an obvious lie, based on the recent news that the military was granting more <u><a href="http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D90D13600&show_article=1">moral waivers</a> </u>to get recruits. That means they are allowing people who have records that involve minor felonies like traffic violations for example, which are a common felony in the state of Virginia, to join the military. 

Of course since we are in a time when people who support Obama, and she was an Obama supporter, don't want more people to join the military..that leaves only one interpretation of the news which is just offensive to hear but to these anti war types it comes out as the military allowing the most loathsome people on the planet-CHILD MOLESTORS-into the military.

         <title>Friday Fry Up </title>
         <description><![CDATA[It's Friday, you don't need to be told that, it's the Fry Up, but, we are just frying one or two thoughts today..because this blogger is moving apartments. 

The New York Times has decided that Hillary Clinton might actually have a chance, because Obama has had a bad month with Reverand Wright making it so clear he doesn't really want a black President and all...Pennylvania, Indiana as if those states really mattered..because if this were a fair race, if the Democrats were like the Republicans at all, they would have made Hillary quit. Hillary made it clear though that she would not be doing that when she stuck to running despite Bill's antics and despite being caught as a liar about her Bosnia trip. People, she is with it to the bitter end, and if she can't have it, no one can....it's like the movie 'Single White Female' except she is not single and young and...heh. The movie should be called 'Raging Codependent White Female' in reference to her relationship with Bill and the way she treats people. 

So here is the <u><a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/05/02/america/02delegates.php">New York Times Article</a></u>.]]></description>

         <title>Should Obama Get a Break?</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Reverend Wright's speech in Washington, DC yesterday really did nothing for Obama's campaign. Although it did certainly make it clear that Wright is all about attention and cares little for anyone else. In fact, one has to wonder if he cares about Obama winning at all because he is not behaving in the way that would help Obama. Really, Wright could have waited 8 months and done no harm...instead..well, read ABC's <u><a href="They continue: "He clearly was not doing Obama any favors, not only by reappearing before a ravenous media thus distracting from Obama's attempt to relate better to white working class voters in Indiana and North Carolina, but by implying Obama's condemnation of some of his sermons was not sincere." ">The Note</a></u> and check out this quote on Wright:

<blockquote>"He clearly was not doing Obama any favors, not only by reappearing before a ravenous media thus distracting from Obama's attempt to relate better to white working class voters in Indiana and North Carolina, but by implying Obama's condemnation of some of his sermons was not sincere." </blockquote>]]></description>

Troubles in<u> <a href="http://www.wnbc.com/news/15990384/detail.html">NYC over a shooting</a></u> and the court's decision. 
<blockquote>In his closing arguments, prosecutor Charles Testagrossa alluded to the starkly different views of the shooting.

"If you are a police officer or sympathetic to police officers, the defendants are tragic heroes and the victims are thugs," he said. "If you are friends of the victims, then the defendants are murderers."

None of the officers took the witness stand in his own defense.</blockquote>]]></description>

         <title>Ack! The Cream Has Been Spoiled.</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Uh oh, it looks like the cat is out of the bag. <u><a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080423/pl_nm/usa_politics_mccain_democrats_dc">Everyone knows now </a></u>that it benefits McCain for the Democrats to continue fighting....at least that article speculates that it will work out that way, but it could also hurt McCain. It's just annoying to constantly hear liberals talk about how bad the economy is when in fact, the economy is better than it was under Clinton. Granted! It is not as good as the extreme abnormal highs we endured in the 90's before the dot com bubble burst. 
But, we were told that it would not last and that it was abnormal, even top analysts today at OMB admit that Clinton was not responsible for the good times, in fact those were probably a result of work that George Bush did in the early 90's. 
<strong>Now, oil prices! That is something to worry about.</strong>]]></description>
