In fact, it surpasses what we have known, redefining politics for a new generation. This is a cultural shift, evidenced by the amount of voters …

  • Roast of McCain and Obama

    In case you haven’t been watching CNN all day long like I have (I know, exciting), John McCain and Barack Obama roasted each other on Thursday night at the Alfred E. Smith Charity Dinner. If your idea of “funny” is along the lines of Bob Saget’s roast on Comedy Central, …

  • Cynthia - I didn't think that John was attempting to overtly call me "stupid". I was commenting on his approach, not what he said. John - You've tried to manipulate what I've said so that you can create the platform you want to argue about. Sean - Someone understands the point! The reason I didn't speak about policies was because...that wasn't what I was writing about! You get an A+ in reading comprehension. And thank you for expressing your concerns about President Elect Obama's economic plans. Many Americans are worried right now and there's no way for anyone to say what plan is going to produce any measure of success in remedying the crisis. We shall see in the months to come how his plan plays out, but as you underlined, it is our responsibility to be active in the process.

  • Rob, Thank you so much for your perspective. You have emphasized the feelings of so many Americans and you certainly diagnosed the root of the problem: greed. We need to begin restructuring from the ground up...and that necessitates a "we" mentality; Americans must individually and collaboratively understand their role in the process. Amy

  • John Thanks for reading and commenting. This post was intended to be as non-political as possible, but maybe I didn't clarify that. This election had everything and nothing to do with Barack Obama. He was the representative of a greater movement. The American people are inspired. Where there is inspiration, there is innovation. And where there is innovation, there is progress. While the past is the prologue, we are sick of hearing "This is how it's always been, and therefore how it should always be." Lack of change brings stagnancy and complacency and, needless to say, this is not a legitimate way to take part in the global community. As a side note, I encourage dialogue, but I refuse to take part in school-yard fighting; I don't have time for it. So, if you're only point is to roll in here to tell anyone "You're stupid," then please save it for some of the other liberal blogs you doubtlessly go out of your way to read and leave comments for. Thanks.
