Filed in Uncategorized by on April 1, 2008 14 Comments

Well, it’s pretty crappy add now that I understand the law. Obama can’t take money from oil companies directly because the freaking law says so and has for 100 years. He takes it from the Oil Companies employees though and their spouses. I saw it Monday and was like wow that’s pretty cool of him…until […]

OK, I love Mat Marshall. He is a hell of a blogger, a hell of a mind and quite a precocious young man. I regret not catching him at the Obama victory party. I read his coverage of the Obama Rally laughing out loud and wanted to hug his Mom, Dominique for her co-blogging. Well […]
