God puts angels in our path so that we might have an abundant life. Bernie Mac gave us laughter in great abundance. My heart was gladdened by the talent of this one man who gave us reason to enjoy the lighter side of life.
May his family be blessed with comforting words today as Bernie Mac rests in peace.

* Please note that this link does not come from the Obama website and therefore it may not have come from the campaign (however the information does have a source that is referenced).
The daily Gallup tracking poll has Obama up 4. The latest AP-Ipsos poll has him up 6.
There is a long way to go, but I'd like to see some upward movement as September rolls in and people start paying attention.
To my fellow supporters:
Please join me in wishing a Happy 47th Birthday to our next Commander-in-Chief. Let our well wishes and prayers be with him and his family today, tomorrow, into the coming election and beyond.
Si Se Puede!
Yes We Can
I used to come to this web site so often that I got into arguments with my brother and my father who thought I needed to manage my time better. I may have been a little addicted (acceptance is the first step) but as I had nothing better to do, I kept up on everything Obama. I remember when it first started and my father was skeptical about Baracks chances, and my brother wasnt even registered to vote.
Well I havent been to this site in a long time and I havent written a blog in a long time I found the cure. Do you want to know what it is? I replaced my addiction with an addiction to registering voters.
I joined the Obama Fellowship program were I volunteered and became obsessed with registering voters and recruiting volunteers to register new voters.
THIS IS A GARUNTEED CURE FOR YOUR BLOGGING HABIT......I DARE YOU TO TRY IT!!!
Happy Day Fellow Supporters! It's 100 Days Until the General Election!!!!
Are you as FIRED UP as I am??!!??
This clip gives you video evidence of the duplicitous nature of McCain's campaign - in his own words! View it and please, pass it on.

The truth about the war in Iraq is finally revealing itself. All of these years we were told that our young men and women were fighting for a noble cause, to end terrorism and fight the evil axis that was spawning in a new form in the Middle East. No longer would diplomacy work, but we must act in a pre-emptive manner to dispatch of terror cells and the ruthless dictators that either financed them or gave a wink and a nod to their existence, as long as those groups did not attack their fiefdoms.
Now over four thousands deaths later, we now see what many of us truly believed was the real motivation: control of the crude oil resources in the country of Iraq and the eventual take over of those same resources in Iran. Also, let us not forget the natural gas pipeline that snakes through Afghanistan and Iraq that had to keep operating on the premise the finances generated would help rebuild those war-torn countries.
As I see the major international oil companies go back to business as usual in Iraq, after 36 years of being shut out, I am stunned by my relative calmness over this tragedy. The normal human emotion would be complete outrage, so much so that I could not sit down and write my thoughts, but rather to yell at the television as I heard the news. But the real tragedy is the fact that people like me, who the right-wingers referred to as un-American and non-patriotic, were right after all.
We sent young men and women, mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, sons and daughters to fight a war not to preserve democracy and the American way, but to preserve greed, the American vice. A job for mercenaries for hire was given to folks who joined the National Guard to pay off their student loans. Elected officials, judges, fire fighters, police officers and people from every walk of life were called to service, believing they were answering the call that many of their parents and grandparents had received in days past, ending tyranny wherever it reared its ugly head. Instead, they were used as the hence men to promote a tyranny as old as man himself: financial gluttony.
We have always prided ourselves that we stood up against the greatest empire in the world and defeated them. We have defeated every mad man that thought they could take over the world, and repaired the breaches caused by their atrocities. But now, look at what we have become.
All I can think about is the young man who graduated from Bailey High School, enlisted to go to Iraq, and became one of the first casualties of this war. I was there when his mother picked out his grave at Autumn Woods Cemetery, which is located in the legislative district I represented for nine years. And when I see his marble headstone there, I think about what we have allowed to happen. Why did we have to go to this extreme to satisfy our thirst for oil, our lust for money and power?
I cannot be dramatic and say that he and the other young men and women from Mississippi, or from any other state, died in vain. Their commitment to serve was pure and genuine. They died believing in the right things, glory, honor, sacrifice. Their patriotism is the reason why we have protection from enemies foreign and domestic.
I reflect on when I took that oath, how I felt to be considered worthy of being a Marine, worthy of defending our Constitution and the nation for which it guides. Then I get angry. Angry enough to run for the U.S. Senate and vow that, if elected, I would never allow any President to abuse that power again for the sake of profiteering. When I look at my American Legion and NRA membership cards, I get angry enough to dare anyone to say I don’t have a right to criticize a government that tries to cover its tracks for political and financial expediency.
I am angry, but yet I write and I campaign. I do what I can, within my ability and power to do, to make this change that is so desperately needed. We are spending $12 billion a month in Iraq, meanwhile bridges are collapsing, schools are overcrowded, levees are breaking, and we are paying four dollars a gallon for gasoline. The Declaration of Independence tells us that we have a right to change our government, and to dispatch of tyrants. We have done a good job of dispatching the tyrants that have emerged around the globe throughout history. This November, it is time to do the same thing right here at home.
Our only weapon is our ability to vote. I made the conscience decision to stand on the front line to play a role in this revolt. I only hope that Americans will join in. The Republicans will say that we all cannot win, that our values are too compromised to convince people to change, especially in Mississippi. My question/challenge to them is have they looked in the mirror lately?
The Bible says what good is it for a man to gain the wealth of the entire world, only to lose his soul. My fellow Americans, I say it is time America regained her soul. It is time for us to truly earn our distinction of being the city on the hill Christ talked about. It is time for this generation to have peace and prosperity, to live and live more abundantly.
Let’s bring our veterans of this latest war home and rebuild America with the ingenuity that made us the envy of the world. All it takes is a collective spiritual and political will. All I ask is that you use that aforementioned weapon and join in this truly noble fight.

Written by an Australian Dentist....Please Keep Reading. Makes You Proud to be An American!!
You probably missed this in the rush of news, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper, an offer of a reward to anyone who [hurt] an American, any American.So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is so they would know how to recognize one when they found one. (Good one, mate!!!!)
To [HURT] an American......[emphasis mine, to soften the actural comment]"An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, or Arab, or Pakistani or Afghan.An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as native Americans.An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America than in Afghanistan. The only difference is that in America they are free to worship as each of them chooses.An American is also free to believe in no religion. For that - he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.An American lives in the most prosperous land in the history of the world.The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence , which recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other na tion in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country!As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan . Americans welcome the best of everything...the best products, the best books, the best music, the best food, the best services. But they also welcome the least.The national symbol of America , The Statue of Liberty , welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built AmericaSome of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001 earning a better life for their families. It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted the terrorists.So you can try to [HURT] an American if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung, and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world. But, in doing so you would just be [Hurting] yourself. Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American."
