Our Fourty-Fourth President!

Here's Obama's speech in Grant Park last night.



And don't think I missed the shout out to ME when he said that Sasha and Malia have EARNED the puppy that will be coming with them to the White House.

YES WE DID!

ETA: C'mon. Don't tell me this image doesn't make you tear up a bit. Standing on the shoulders of giants.

I VOTED!

Did you?

Sad News

More Fellow Barkers!

These labbies are Barking for Barack!


Thanks for the h/t, Ms. Laura!

Lola is Barking for Barack!

As Lola contemplates which of her neighbors' lawns to relieve herself on, this house gets a reprieve for their excellent lawn decorations.

P.S. Happy Burpday Lola!

A Vision of the Future!

Two days to go! And I have been watching so much news and reading the internets so much that I fell asleep and had a dream...

America's Finest Media.

McPain Gets Coveted Endorsement

The tides are turning for McPain! He got the endorsement of none other than the Prince of Darkness himself. Obama clearly knows this is the beginning of the end for him. He practically conceded:

I'd like to congratulate Senator McCain on this endorsement because he really earned it. That endorsement didn't come easy. Senator McCain had to vote 90 percent of the time with George Bush and Dick Cheney to get it. He served as Washington's biggest cheerleader for going to war in Iraq, and supports economic policies that are no different from the last eight years. So Senator McCain worked hard to get Dick Cheney's support.

But here's my question for you, Colorado: do you think Dick Cheney is delighted to support John McCain because he thinks John McCain's going to bring change? Do you think John McCain and Dick Cheney have been talking about how to shake things up, and get rid of the lobbyists and the old boys club in Washington?
