Obama camp says Detroit mayor may be unwelcome in Denver

I have to admit, I haven't paid super close attention to all of the trials and tribulations of Kwame Kilpatrick. But it seems like the man is constantly in trouble. He spent a night in jail for taking a business trip to Canada (and thus violating his bond agreement). This is just the latest misstep. Hopefully enough people will start shunning this man so he is forced out of office sooner rather than later.

Because I'm poor right now and thus can't afford either of these shirts (one for me, one for Billy):





(Roslin would kick Obama's ass. Just sayin'. Most likely because she'd rig the election...but you know you want a prophet for president!)

They would, however, make wonderful wedding presents. His and Her geek shirts! Totally better than monogrammed towels.

I've been in a funk all day. I think it's because today Hilary Clinton gave her concession speech. And it bums me the hell out. I haven't read the transcript/watched the speech 'cause I'm pretty sure I'd be a blithering mess of tears. Even reading some of the articles about it gets me choked up.

Obama won the nomination; I'll certainly vote for him in November. But that doesn't mean I'm not disappointed that my candidate didn't make it.

Or so declares Yahoo! News. Something about the phrasing of that just
strikes me as being slightly off; as if they can pinpoint the exact date
and time the US hit recession territory, as opposed to just "slow
economic growth" territory as Bush has been trying to reframe it.
