... not to mention., one of the their big anti-Gore and anti-Kerry sound bytes was that they were "too intellectual."

Don't you just hate it when we have smart people running the country?

It's not about McCain or lapel pins...it's about this new Obama hand sign, or "salute" as it is called. It's about the mindset that "We want to see it everywhere, but more importantly we want this sign to take the world by storm." Looks more like a secret sign that kids use to know you are part of the club.

It's more about the Obama madness that's sweeping the nation. Excellent marketing tactic to the vulnerable voters of this country. Just look at all the gimmicks that are being implemented to show that he is a candidate of change. Personally, I don't buy it. From his new presidential seal with his Obama "O" to the big "O" on his airplane, it's Obama propaganda.

I can just imagine the DNC with everyone in the audience flashing the Obama sign in unison...a human wave. Kind of scary for the masses to worship a candidate like they do. Are we forgetting that he is just another politician?? Imagine all those that supported Edwards before he admitted that he lied about his affair. It makes you wonder if our candidates are who they appear to be. Obama is not the chosen one, nor will he miraculously bring change to America.

This Obama salute may very well be a big fat zero as far as I am concerned.

And the "W" sign is like getting flipped off 3 times. Once for the economy he will leave for Obama to fix. Once for the rotten shape he has left our country in the eyes of the world. And once more for our new oil prices.
