Obama's Newtown Speech [SB]

My heart goes out to the families of the victims and the survivors who experienced this terrible tragedy. I wholeheartedly agree with the president; we cannot retain the status quo. http://youtu.be/gfaYUrgcCrY Full text from WhiteHouse.gov: Thank you, Governor. To all the families, first responders, to the community of Newtown, clergy, guests – Scripture tells us: “…do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away…inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.” ...

President Obama's Flickr [II/PM]

Did you know the President has a Flickr account? [caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“Throwing a different, much safer football than the other famous one you might have heard of (Photo courtesy The White House)”] [/caption] It’s crazy! I mean, I know a lot of this digital stuff is only just now maturing and getting big, but I love that the Obama political machine has so embraced every facet of it. From Tumblr to Twitter to Flickr, I mean, they’re on top of it. ...

Quick Notes - Obama Pitcher Edition [WMQ/GO]

I’m WAY behind on writing legitimate content on this site, but I hope you’re enjoying all the videos. I wanted to mention a few things: The opening pitch at Nationals Park will be tossed out by Barack Obama this year! I’ve managed to secure a ticket for the game. Our Nation’s team was 3-2 when Bush attended ballgames, but I’m afraid that they’ll probably start out Obama’s record with a loss against the National League Champion Phillies. Should still be fun to see him make that toss in person. ...

The 2009 MLB All-Star Game [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]

It’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up. It’s that time of year again, the MLB All-Star game is upon us! Last night was the Home Run Derby and, despite being in his team’s stadium, Albert Pujols did not quite manage to make it to the third round. Instead the final competition was between Prince Fielder, of the Milwaukee Brewers, and Nelson Cruz, of the Texas Rangers. In the end, Fielder took it and even bashed in a homer over 500 feet. ...

Strange Bedfellows: Ire

Hey Sarah Palin! I’m a real American. Don’t think for one second that there are multiple classes of Americans based on who does or doesn’t agree with you. This country was founded on the basis of free speech, intellectual discourse, and differing viewpoints and I guarantee you that I’m just as American as Joe Sixpack, even though I don’t live in a small town. Hey Rush Limbaugh! You’re being offensive and shortsighted to assume that Colin Powell only supports Obama due to his race. Obama is an agent for change from the Bush years and as a Bush dissenter, I would think that it makes sense for Powell to support him. ...
