GOP "take pride in being ignorant"
Obama: Republicans take pride in being ignorant
Finally, the truth be told...
BEREA, Ohio (CNN) – For almost a week, John McCain and his campaign have been mocking Barack Obama’s comments to a voter last week in Missouri when he told her to one way to conserve energy is “making sure your tires are properly inflated.”

Happy Birthday Barack Obama!
This is a note sent to supporters of Barack:
Yesterday, thousands of Hoosiers came together at Campaign for Change Cookouts across the state.
These Cookouts were full of supporters eager to continue building our movement for change by bringing new friends, family, and neighbors to take an active role with them in this exciting process.
Today, August 4th, is a special day as we continue working towards the November election. It's Barack's 47th birthday, and supporters across Indiana are meeting up at their local Campaign for Change offices and reaching out to 47 voters -- either by attending a phonebank, going door-to-door, or registering 47 new voters -- to celebrate Barack's birthday and grow our movement for change.
Indiana Campaign for Change offices are located all across Indiana, and they've quickly become the go-to meeting place for volunteers and supporters who want to get involved.
Find an office in your area and give Barack a special gift -- your time, energy, and commitment to building this movement for change:

Happy Birthday President Obama! (wouldn't that be the greatest gift ever--campaign support, votes and the Oval Office!)

Obamacons Unite!
I ran across this blog post on Salon.com and just had to highlight the remarks on this day, the Cookout for Change/Barack's Birthday Barbecue Bash!
I work in the insurance industry in downtown Boston. People are staying off the roads in droves thanks to high energy prices and our business is down 40 percent from last year. Since my company has not chosen to diversify its geographic base and since I'm the newest employee in my department and both single and childless, I'm out of a job.

Ahead in the polls
Presidential Candidate Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), is ahead in the polls. However, for some, that is not good enough.
Why isn't he more ahead in the polls? some ask.
I say what does it matter? He is ahead in the polls.
These arguments, to me, go back to the very idea I personally reject: Blacks have to be twice or four times better than any white person. This goes for running for president, competing for a job, competing for a man etc.
Why can't Black people be like everyone else. Why are Blacks held to a higher standard just to be included?
Only cream of the crop (or very top cream of the crop in Obama's case) need apply.
Really, now. Any other man would be congratulated for running a good race. Why can't this man, Obama?

FutureResume.com Contest Video
I have reviewed the FutureResume.com site and I am impressed by how well it is laid out. It is easy to use and a great idea--especially for high profile jobs. I had no problems uploading my video.
Everyone wants a dream jobbecause it signals a desire to do more with you life than just work a job. A dream job is any career that you enjoy. Using this site will, in my opinion, expediate any work toward landing that dream job.
My dream job for a day would be a spokeswoman for a casino. I would get to be around happy people on vacation enjoying themselves. I would get to play hostess to these folks and represent the casino. This would be a drastic change from my current job as Mommy--giving me a much needed break from myself.

Earthquake!
There is no phone service--cell and land line in Southern California because it is out in certain places. People are being asked to use e-mail if possible.
That would mean people are using broadband.
The quake was 5.8 on the Richter Scale and felt as far away as Los Vegas.
Damage estimates are in the billions in some parts. Buildings were swaying, some people reported on the news.
I'm sure there will be hand-held images of the damage.
