More evidence that the GOP meme that the stimulus has failed comes this morning. From the Associated Press: The unemployment rate fell to 10 percent in November as employers cut the smallest number of jobs since the recession began. Clearly the Obama administration is failing the American people. Why? Because the unemployment rate didn’t get capped at 8% like he […]

I’ve heard so many people claiming everything they’re hearing from President Obama about the justifications for his plans in Afghanistan is simply repackaged rhetoric from George W. Bush. Allow me to say this: bullshit. During the period of time that Barack Obama was making his decision on the way forward in Afghanistan, he consulted with many people, many experts from […]

25-year old Meghan McCain has some military advice for President Obama: Expand the war in Afghanistan. Her advice comes from solid military experience. She has a brother that was in the military. Her advice comes to him in an essay on the Daily Beast called “My Anger At Obama”. I’m actually not sure why she titled it that way. She […]

Cross-posted at The Daily Kos. Citing his need to be well-rested for Saturday’s Final Four games which begin at 6:00 p.m. Eastern, President Barack Obama today announced that he will be returning early from the G-20 Summit in Europe.

During the election, I was a Volunteer Team Leader in the Ann Arbor, Michigan area. When I was recruited to do this, one of the things that intrigued me and got my attention most was the very deliberate focus on not only assembling a grassroots network to elect Barack Obama but to keep this network in place AFTER the election.

I’ve had it with Obama. All this talk about “Change We Can Believe In” and “Change This” and “Change That”. And what do we get? Steven Chu for Secretary of Energy. I mean, I know absolutely nothing about Chu at all but doesn’t he really just represent more of the same? A rehash of the Clinton administration in some way? […]

As you may know, Mrs. E spent quite a bit of time photographing Barack Obama rallies during the General Election campaign. Now that the election is over, she has put together an amazing mosaic photo with close to 2,500 different faces from the various rallies she photographed, from the Bruce Springsteen concert held on Obama’s behalf, and of many of […]

This is one of the coolest things to come out after the election that I have seen yet. Nearly 1,000 front pages from newspapers all over the world from November 5, 2008, the day after Barack Obama was elected as the 44th president of the United States of America. Very, very cool. Obama Grabs Headlines I’m just sayin’…

On May 15th, I joined the “Dexter for Obama” group on My.BarackObama.com. A couple of weeks later, I received a message from a woman named MaryAnn. It read: Hope Everyone Cann (sic) attend the Organizing Meeting on Thursday June 19 at 7 at Dexter Pub. See you there. On June 19th, my wife and I plopped our kayaks into a […]
