The Soup: Miley Cyrus Sit Down

Joel McHale sat down with Miley Cyrus and had an interesting interview about a certain nocturnal activity that the young singer participates in.

Yes We Can

Tonight made history. Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States. Words cannot describe the hope and joy that I feel right now. Here is his speech from tonight, see if you can tell me who it sounds like he is emulating.

Violence Against Obama Campaign Worker in Wisconsin

Image via WikipediaI did not want to be spending my Sunday morning talking about this. I would much rather be talking about how Zero the Polar Bear is still in the moat at the Milwaukee Public Zoo. However I have to talk about this.

An Obama campaign worker was assaulted while canvassing. I will let 58 year old Nancy Takehara speak for herself;

“The next thing I know he’s telling us we’re not his people, we’re probably with ACORN, and he started screaming and raving,” Takehara said. “He grabbed me by the back of the neck. I thought he was going to rip my hair out of my head. He was pounding on my head and screaming. The man terrified me.”

This has got to stop. Robocalls from McCain saying that Obama is connected to former Weatherman and current college professor William Ayers is only increasing the hate speech that the McCain/Palin campaign has already begun at rallies. McCain can repudiate all he wants, but the seeds of hatred have already been planted. This has got to stop.

Takehara did have a shining light at the end of the tunnel however. When she got home, she had a message that Senator Obama had called. She returned the phone call and spoke to the Democratic Presidential Candidate one to one.

“Senator Obama understood… it was wonderful. It made me feel wonderful. It made me feel connected to this government again.”

Keep fighting the good fight. Non-violently of course.
