I just checked my email, and found this:

--------------------------------------------------

TPD -- I'd like to thank you for the warm welcome I've received as the newest member of this campaign.

What you and Barack have accomplished over the past 19 months is incredible, and it's an honor to be part of it. I'm looking forward to rolling up my sleeves and getting involved.

I recorded a short video message about how I hope to help in the weeks ahead.

Please take a minute to watch the video and share it with your friends:

Over the next few weeks, I'll be doing a lot of the things you've done to grow this movement -- reaching out day after day in neighborhoods all across the country, connecting with people who are hungry for the change we need.

This is no ordinary time, and this is no ordinary election. I plan to do everything I can to help Barack take back the White House.

I don't need to tell you that John McCain will just bring us another four years of the same. You can't change America when you supported George Bush's policies 95% of the time.

Barack has the vision and the courage to bring real change to Washington. But even he can't do this alone.

Join me by getting involved in your community -- and reach out to your friends and family to get them involved as well.

Please watch this video and pass it on:

Thank you,

Joe

Did you happen to see Michelle Obama’s clenched fist salute when walking on to the stage on Saturday?

Clenched fist salute
The raised clenched fist was popularized by the Communist Party, and in some locations it maintains that association. In the United States, the raised fist was associated with the Black Power movement, symbolized in the 1968 Olympics Black Power Salute; a clenched-fist salute is also proper in many African nations, including South Africa. However, the two salutes are somewhat different: in the Black Power salute, the arm is held straight, while in the working-class salute the arm is bent slightly at the elbow.

[edit] Greetings

[ThreePuttinDude]

Actually, I’ve noticed her doing that several times.
There’s some Black Panther stuff goin’ on with that sista’

[edzo4]

Hell, you can’t even watch the History Channel or the dang Weather anymore without leftist spittle dripping all over you!

my stepdaughter and I were playing the simpsons video game yesterday on PS3 and there is a part where one of the characters is in trouble and about to die and I swear to god he says "none of this would happen if Obama was president"

[Miss Didi]

I hope you write back. ;)

In the immortal words of a late, great American hero, "You gotta be shi**in' me"?

Right?

[ThreePuttinDude]

I was added to Obambis email list when I sent a response to the ad about Ayers.
When I sent my response it wasn't what they were looking for, I told them to
use more ads like this so the public could learn the truth behind this inexperienced
freshman community organizer first term senator from the south side of Chicago.

Ha Ha Ha, they probably didn't want to hear that, but what the heck, I was put on their eblast list.

[ConservativeGreek]

Stanley Kurtz at National Review has been writing about her and is trying to fill in the blanks of her life as well as Barry’s in the 1990s.
Sent him a note to remind him of the gesture.

[Alas Babylon!]

Shoot, I’d like both of you “Dolls” to run. Your team would beat any McCain and ? by a mile!

At least in my book!!!!!!

[STARWISE]

Total farce ... the words are coming
out of the wrong person’s mouth.

[STARWISE]

I was crying with laughter when Rush did that bit === Hut Sweet Hut ... hysterical!

[STARWISE]

Major Garret intimated yesterday that the big
... and I mean BIG ... sticking point preventing
HRC from giving her most effusive support is that
she wants all Obama’s lists of donor/supporter names
.... BAD!

[shalom aleichem]

I know Howard Dean gave Kerry all his lists and names, but they were used for his presidential run. HRC should give Obama her lists, not the other way around. What you would see is PAY BACK. HRC and Bubba’s goons (Craig Livingstone, Pellicano, Lanny Davis, et al) would go around and pick off all the “traitors” who helped the upstart and stopped the Clinton juggernaut in its tracks.

[STARWISE]

LOL ... I’m in no posse .. hahaha.

Just wondered, with all your knowledge of DE politics what you knew about his personal history.

This home .. and if you saw the TV coverage at the lead up to his leaving from there to the airport for his engagement to BO, you’d have seen . it’s quite a lovely spot .. and it did look like a compound to me with the long drive and possibly another home behind.

It looks like it backs up to a lake .. here’s the aerial view:

Not a cheap cottage.

His financial disclosure form is strangely bereft of any reference to mortgages, home/real estate valuations, etc., so something seems to not add up, especially since he’s among the poorest if not THE poorest senator.

Thanks for any input... ;)

[STARWISE]

I never put anything past the Clinton gangs.

[Morgan in Denver]

Thank you. I was able to listen to part of it. My computer locked up when Pelosi said companies had to start paying royalties. Huh? They already are with Nancy & Company squandering the income.

[Morgan in Denver]

Just got back from the store but wife said the Denver SWAT team was dispatched to downtown Denver. I am looking for clarification and confirmation.

has information and it’s on CNN at the moment. According to 9 News they shut down the Pepsi Center for 15 minutes.

I’ll look on FR now because something else is probably on it.

[Sal]

Looking at the guest list it looks like there was no mention of Russia's invasion of Georgia on the Sunday shows.

The incredible danger potential for the US and for the world is huge. That's WHY it has to be ignored because neither Obambam nor plugs is fit to handle it and we all know that electing the furthest left candidate is much more important than the peace, security and prosperity of the whole damn world.

[Alas Babylon!]

Well, in fairness to the Sunday screaming faces, they did have Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice on every show last week.

They are more stupid than evil if you ask me.

The crisis, of course, continues and certainly the Russians and Georgians don’t give a hoot about Biden and Denver but the driveby’s have once again moved on. They have all the attention span of a three year old.
