The Clinton’s Speech

I hope the Clintons’ speeches will finally shut some people up particularly Hillary’s speech. Before she gave this powerful speech, a lot of people and media speculated that she might not come out as a strong supporter for Obama. But her “Keep Going” theme speech in the convention proved that she is larger than life.

As I said before it’s hard to be Hillary. No matter what she does, people will always criticize her. If she does not show her vigorous support to Obama, she would be forever blamed if Obama lost the election and hated by the African-American. But if she suddenly makes 360 degree turn and takes back her criticisms to Obama during the primary, her faithful supporters might just feel betrayed.

I think she did the excellent job even though some never satisfied critics barbed on her that she did not show her support to Obama enough.

I think it’s unfair to expect her to get over her resentment and disappointment in a short period of time and to stand among her supporters in the convention as a wholehearted Obama’s supporter. After the long period of the bitter battle, I think at least on the surface she did her best. Some people discount her sincerity to her conviction of making this country better and believe that everything she has done is solely out of her personal ambitions. That might be true in certain degree and who does not harbor ambitions?

 

She has released her faithful followers to support Obama because she knows what is more important between the cause that she has fought the whole life or her own ambitions.

 

I don’t think she would wish George W. Bush’s twin to run this country to the ground.

 

After she finished her speech, it made me love her even more. I think she should be the role model for every woman in this country.

Fight the Smears!

We cannot take anything for granted anymore. It seems Obama’s advantages are winding down. I think it’s time for us to do something, at least to donate some money to his campaign.

This video clip from Moveon.org is very interesting. I think the Republican’s formidable weapon is the SMEARS! Remember, Dukakis, Gore and Kerry? It’s time to fight back the smears. If you have any doubt about Obama’s record, go to

We have to set the record straight!

Remember when John McCain equated Obama to a brainless celebrity like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears?
Paris Hilton has stricken back and I think it’s very funny, especially when she said, “I’m just hot” and referred McCain as “that wrinkly white-haired guy”. To show her brain, she elaborated the complicated environment issue.

It would be fun to see Britney Spears hitting back in the future.

Since McCain compared Obama as a brainless celeb, what should McCain be compared to?

Oh oh I know, Dinosaur!

YES DANCE

You might have seen it but this is one of the funniest video clips I have seen.  That monkey backpack is so fierce and the dancing is so funny. I saw something like that before from the House of Aviance.

Spend time talking to memories,

Tears bring back stories,

The heart ravaged by the bitter past,

I need to find some peace tonight.

Let me fly when I close my eyes,

To somewhere with someone,

Who have their arms opened,

And magically empty my memory.

Tired of this endless thoughts,

The circle of sweet and bitter story,

My witness of your love

Has thrown me into this abyss tonight.

Pull me out of this wreckage,

Let me heal my bruises and scratches,

I will make each moment sacred,

With or without you,  my sweet witness.
