JUST ONE O DEM DAYS PART DEUX
High points of the day, in order
1. Toni Morrison's eloquent endorsement of Obama:
In thinking carefully about the strengths of the candidates, I stunned
myself when I came to the following conclusion: that in addition to
keen intelligence, integrity and a rare authenticity, you exhibit
something that has nothing to do with age, experience, race or gender
and something I don't see in other candidates. That something is a
creative imagination which coupled with brilliance equals wisdom. It
is too bad if we associate it only with gray hair and old age. Or if
we call searing vision naivete. Or if we believe cunning is insight.
Or if we settle for finessing cures tailored for each ravaged tree in
the forest while ignoring the poisonous landscape that feeds and
surrounds it. Wisdom is a gift; you can't train for it, inherit it,
learn it in a class, or earn it in the workplace--that access can
foster the acquisition of knowledge, but not wisdom.
2. Kennedy fam endorsement of Obama
3. THE LAST EVER STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS FROM LIL' BUSH aka GOD'S ROTTWEILER'S DOG WALKER:
3a. The look on Nancy Pelosi's face throughout said address, appearing to shoot lasers in the back of Lil' Bush's thick skull
3b. The Satanic look on Dick Cheney's face when looking out to the senate: as if he was fantasizing himself holding a flame thrower, blasting all the motherfuckers just for the hell of it
3c. Copious amounts of jowly Republican senators... and Condi
3d. Drink every time Bush references 9/11; Mo passed out before speech ended.
3e. Chris Mathews' Obamaboner. Finally some TV news dudes I am not totally ookied out by!
toni morrison should stick to writing because this crap about bill clinton being black still annoys eats at my soul (stereotype much?).
if you could call a press conference for me I'd like to go on the record and endorse Obama aka Kill Hill (and Bill).
My high point of the day is thinking about a story like this:
