		<description>Camera poised at the door of the backs of Laura and Geogre getting the boot (physically) by the new resident of the White House just as the exterminators arrive via the same entrance. Tell me how do &quot;we the people&quot; permit this idiot to get into office (by negating the &quot;hanging chad&quot;)
c&#039;mon now that hanging chad was right next to the hole (the only hole punched out) robbing Al Gore of the election. There should have been rioting in all city streets. We the People should have been so upset that anarchy should have prevailed. Bush should have rotten fruit tossed in his direction on the upcoming &quot;Dumbest president in history lecture tour&quot;.

		<description>And yet, he thinks that his world travels this year will produce positive results and prop up his legacy. None of the world leaders take him seriously anymore. He&#039;s in his last year, wildly unpopular at home and abroad, his Texas Mafia mostly dispersed and his party in the minority. 
Meanwhile the security bubble that travels with him is highly disruptive to the daily lives of the citizens of the countries he visits. 
He&#039;s doing his last lap of free taxpayer-supported travel before settling down at the &quot;ranch&quot; and visiting his &quot;fantastic freedom institute&quot; in between the lucrative speaking gigs.</description>

		<description>I knew there would be a National Party on January 20, 2009 however I didn&#039;t know that this would be a Worldwide Event.

Cool.

&lt;strong&gt;Here&#039;s the plan,  a live chat where everyone everywhere can celebrate together.   More details as we near the End of an Error.&lt;/strong&gt;

It sounds wonderful, but it all hinges on:
&quot;Pelosi will be replaced with someone who will bring the Articles of Impeachment to the floor of the House of Representatives Immediately! &quot;

&quot;Free at last
Free at last
&quot;Thank God almighty,
we are free at last.&quot;

I pray for his RAPTURE every friggin day.

		<description>We want change!  We want change!  Real change.  We want to stop the Bush Clinton cycle.  We want a President who is still connected to reality!

Barack Obama is still connected to reality.  He is not awash in Dick Cheney level money, like the $70 million government service cashout for the Clintons with their bonus half billion dollar &quot;charity&quot; that employed their key campaign officials and was funded by their campaign donors.  He doesn&#039;t take the lobbyist money.  The 527 money.  He takes money from American voters who support him in accordance with the law.  

Cash may be king but it shouldn&#039;t make kings, at least not in this country if we have a say in it.





http://www.rawstory.com/news/mochila/Obama_promises_relief_to_homeowners_01112008.html

Barack will fight for us.  He will fight for women.  He will fight for men.  He will fight for ordinary Americans.  He will fight for real change.  Barack will not give up the fight for change and throw people under the bus like the Clintons in the early 90s threw gay Americans under the bus in abandoning the fight to stop our military from discriminating against them.  Barack will not stop fighting to reform our sick and broken health care system, even if he screws up on the first try like Hillary Clinton did in the early 90s (with the predictable result that our system is worse than ever a dozen years later).  

Isn&#039;t it ironic that the Clintons are running around claiming Barack is talking about false hope - maybe their hope had an element of falsity.  Maybe the Clinton hope that they preached about in 1992 turned out to some extent to be false hope.  Maybe it was false hope in not ending discrimination against gay people in the military, false hope in not fighting relentlessly to fix our broken health care system, false hope in failing to achieve all the really big goals they had aimed for, and false hope in, essentially, being another good &quot;Republican&quot; President (former Fed Chief Greenspan&#039;s words, not mine).  And I am not mentioning the other stuff we all know about.  Maybe this false hope was a key part of the Clinton&#039;s vast &quot;experience&quot; which they now claim makes Hillary so qualified.  Maybe their &quot;experience&quot; in the Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton cycle and their hope bashing are precisely NOT what America needs more of right now.  

Sorry to sound shrill, but these things are real, not just made up right wing propaganda like so much of what Fox runs today.  These things need to be said in view of the Clinton&#039;s kneecap comments accusing Obama of &quot;false hopes&quot; and trashing Dr. King&#039;s legacy.  Clinton said Dr. King doesn&#039;t deserve most of the credit for what Dr. King obviously accomplished through, yes, you guessed it, REAL HOPE.  False hope for some I guess, but not for others.  Not for Dr. King.  And not for Barack Obama.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We want change!  We want change!  Real change.  We want to stop the Bush Clinton cycle.  We want a President who is still connected to reality!</p>
<p>Barack Obama is still connected to reality.  He is not awash in Dick Cheney level money, like the $70 million government service cashout for the Clintons with their bonus half billion dollar &#8220;charity&#8221; that employed their key campaign officials and was funded by their campaign donors.  He doesn&#8217;t take the lobbyist money.  The 527 money.  He takes money from American voters who support him in accordance with the law.  </p>
<p>Cash may be king but it shouldn&#8217;t make kings, at least not in this country if we have a say in it.</p>

		<description>Take it Back in 2008! 

Nancy Pelosi is standing in the way of a full investigation into the crimes of the Bush/Cheney administration. She will not allow impeachment hearing to take place.

Please sign the petition to replace Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. It is Constitutional and can be done during session. In fact the rule was written for just such an occasion; the removal of a complicit Speaker to advance the impeachment of a rogue administration.
