Obama Awarded Nobel Peace Prize | Could you say that again?

Obama was woken up this morning by one of his daughters with 3 announcements. That he had won the Nobel Prize, it was the dog’s birthday and that there was a long weekend coming up. I wonder if he had her repeat the first thing she said. I know I would have.

No one likes change but come on now

I’ve avoided posting about the current economic situation, the public’s response and who they’re focusing the blame on. I’ve avoided it simply because I’ve never been more disgusted and disappointed with my fellow Americans than I am now.

I Got a Discount on my House Also, So What?

I may not be the world’s biggest Obama fan but the latest news stories about him getting a “discount” on a new home is absolutely ridiculous. Can’t they do any better than this?

Not Smart Enough to Vote for Obama?

Hillary Clinton won W. Virginia in what Adam Nagourney of the New York Times calls an electoral shellacking. Well, good for her, it’s about time. However, Barack Obama’s advisors are waving her win aside blatantly hinting at the fact the state is filled with white, uneducated(?!!?) people.
