Very, very nice.

This is nice. From the Omaha World Hearald, my old home town. Enjoy!

One electoral vote still outstanding in NE-2 (Omaha Metro).

Maybe we'll be able to call it Obamaha?

Update: I am proud to be from Obamaha! Obama wins the electoral vote of NE-2!

See that little blue island in eastern Nebraska? My peeps!

TOM TOMORROW:

One extremely gratifying aspect of the Web is the ease with which one can go back and look anew at the lunacy of the Neocons and their demon-partners, the "religious" right.

Together, I think with malicious intent, these marginally aware, minimally conscious groups have brought us to the brink of the destruction of the American Dream. Out of pure avarice. Greed. The lust for power.

And in John McLame they offer us 4 more years of this mindless crap, with the added attraction of an anger management problem.

Meanwhile, democrats, progressives, liberals, whatever are fighting among themselves like a bunch of jealous sisters around prom time. Jeebus people, look at the stakes, grow a spine and get down to the dirty work that lies ahead.

Impeach Already! Protect the Constitution!

I've been looking hard at this on-line, learn Chinese at home deal, 'cause it looks like it'll be more important here in So-Cal than even Spanish before long. We're giving the store away!

The inter-personal, intra-party B.S. going on in the Netroots, cable news, and elsewhere is, frankly, disgusting, especially given the long term stakes.

Supreme Court, anyone?

Admiral Fallon's departure today does not bode well for the near term future. Think Bush will go for a hat-trick? Three wars in one Administration! War with Iran! Because Iraq was a typo?!

Our culture, history, current level of education, awareness does not bode well for taking the long view. Something that opposing entities (nations, philosophies, religions, whatever) seem to do easily.

Enlightened Self-Interest Anyone?

Threats of violence toward Obama & his supporters

I wonder if this is something that the Secret Service should be made aware of?

I won't link to it because the authors don't deserve the hits, however, in a YouTube video with the disgusting title "Barack and Michelle Obama Supporters are Retards", one finds in the comments section a discussion about how much fun it would be to sit on a hill (adult carrot?) and take pot shots at Obama and his supporters with a "sniper rifle" and an "AR-15".

I'm a huge fan of the First Ammendment but are violent threats protected speech?

Are threats of violence ever funny?

Perhaps a sign of the right's desperation, definitely an indicator of the lack of decency of some on the Web, but most assuredly a sign of small, angry minds. Imagine the outcry from the Wingnuts if a liberal poster laughed at the idea of shooting Mr 19% and his fans.

And Now For Something Completely Different.....

My vote in today's California primary was for Barack Obama.

I believe he offers the best hope for a different, kinder, saner path toward our future as a nation.

I believe he offers the best hope to improve America's standing in the eyes of the world.

I believe he can inspire us to work together for a better future for ourselves and our heirs.

I believe I feel better about this vote than any since I placed my mark for McGovern.

It's time to reclaim America, this is my champion.

Groundswell? "I like Obama", says Ike’s granddaughter.

Hillary about to face Super Tuesday Shocker?

I like Obama, says Ike’s granddaughter - Tales from the Trail: 2008

Seems to me that there is a very significant move from all around the political spectrum toward Barack Obama and his message of hope and change.

I'm putting Hillary's presumptive nomination on an involuntary 72 hour hold.
