I was absolutely amazed. A week ago I was sitting in the hall during my guitar class to practice. 3 people were sitting with me. Out of the whole group nobody saw anything special in Obama.
The reason I was amazed is because it seems like every time I tell anyone that Obama is not a saint the results are "omgracist!!!!!!111" or "but obama promises this that and the other" or some form of bashing on republicans due to Bush.
I get tired of people thinking I am a republican because I am not a democrat and do not support Obama. It gets annoying when everyone thinks you have to be one or the other. Essentially when I don't support Obama then the ONLY other choice is "another George Bush".
I find it pretty funny how people are afraid that McCain and Palin would be like George Bush. I especially like it when people try to scare me into supporting Obama by saying McCain would die and Palin would be president.
1. She is good looking.
2. She likes guns.
What's not to like?

Yeah I know it's shopped, but still...
I find it rather sad that as an American I can not show national pride. It seems like America is the only country where national pride instantly means that you think the war in Iraq is justified, you definitely think you live in the best country of the world, you are close minded, you are stupid, you always force your beliefs on others, and you are a bad person.
If you say you are proud to be American you are instantly hit with a long list of your countries "******** ups" while the person addressing you (if they are from another country) ignore their countries ******** ups and retain pride in their nation.
