Oh Bama!!!

We are a country divided. So many things separate us…culture, finances, race, sexual preference, etc. Who stands for us? Who is against us? This is going to be a year that goes down in history! Even if Obama doesn’t win, he will have come damn close. This is a monumental moment, whether you love him or hate him, it speaks volumes as to how far we have come as a people, that a Black President is even a real possibility.

Some have said that Bush is the devil in sheep’s clothing, while McCain is the devil and doesn’t make any attempts to disguise it. He is just Bush on steroids. We need a change…desperately.

After September 11th Bush spoke passionately about avenging our attackers, he spoke so passionately in fact, that even if you felt nothing but sheer hatred for him, something about the patriotism in his voice moved you. You wanted to believe that all differences aside; he was going to lead us to victory and Osama would pay for the heinous acts of 9/11. So off to war went our fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters. And they wouldn’t stop until Hussein was brought to justice!!!! They were vigilant… WAIT!!! Hussein??? When did we stop looking for Osama and start looking for Hussein? When did changing the Iraqi way of life become our mission? What did I miss? If you didn’t hate him before… (Insert heavy sigh here)

We need a change. I can’t wait to cast my vote tomorrow… for change.
