Change...that’s a good slogan. I’m surprised Obama hasn’t been using it.

It's actually "Change You Can Believe In".

Which, I'm wondering why some Phtoshop guru hasn't already taken those signs carried by the people in the background of Obamma rallies, and changed them to "Change You Can beLiedAbout"

"Change You Can Believe In"

You know, ever since I heard this phrase I have wondered if it isn't linguistically illogical (as well as being insipid and trite). "Change" refers to some evolution of a process or thing. Change either is going to happen, or it isn't. Belief has nothing to do with it. You can believe (or not) that a particular candidate or party will attempt to effect change or changes in things and it would then be logical to believe in that person's intentions or abilities, but believing in the "change"? As if it were a thing in and of itself? I'm not so sure.
