Well, I took a day off yesterday for family matters, but things are moving along some good and some bad.
First, Michelle Obama.
I wrote that the GOP was going to go after her. Well, Fox News has totally disrespected the Obamas twice. First, the fist bump crap and now calling Mrs. Michelle Obama, Barack's Baby Mama???
From Urban Dictionary:
term used to define an unmarried young woman (but can be a woman of any age) who has had a child. As mentioned before in another definition, most of the time it is used for when it was simply a sexual relationship, compared to ex-wife or girlfriend. Usually this has a negative connotation, a lot of baby mamas are seen as desperate, gold digging, emotionally starved, shady women who had a baby out of spite or to keep a man. Sometimes they may act like this because of missed child support payments, unfulfilled promises by the father, or convenient sex by the father. Either or both may exist in any situation.
Fox News had to backpeddle and state their producer showed poor judgment.
Although Shine doesn't name anyone responsible, the show's producer is Jessica Herzberg. A Fox staffer said that others internally were bothered by describing the potential first lady and very accomplished women — as the senator's "baby mama."
They should be disturbed. Michelle Obama is not Barack Obama's "baby mama". She is his WIFE and MOTHER of his children, period.
Check out what liza over at culturekitchen has to say about Michelle Malkin and her attacks on Michelle Obama.
Jack and Jill has plenty to say about this disrespectful statement.
The Michelle Obama Watch.
People are getting outraged.
I told you this would get bad. Expect worse. Keep your powder dry.

The Obama Campaign has launched a website, "Fight the Smears", which you can direct anyone with these constant bogus questions about Barack Obama. Also, where you send the campaign information on any smears.
::
Another Rush Limbaugh lie, questioning Obama not being a naturalized citizen. Daily Kos provides full view of Barack's birth certificate. Yes, the stupids are out running amuck!!

this is mark penn, the mastermind of hillary clinton's campaign
Scary, huh? To me, yes, and disgusting. But what is more important is for you to read the GQ article. He is now making the circuit to try to clear, clean his image and name. In this article it is crystal clear of how he wanted to go negative towards Obama, down racial divide, etc. And in the end, HE DID and see where he and Hillary Clinton are sitting at now. A must read.

Here is Keith's Special Comment on John McCain's statement of bringing the soliders home "not that important".

And Dan Boren who is not supporting Obama, this is what Rahm Emanuel has to say:
As proof, Emanuel references Indiana Rep. Brad Ellsworth, another Democrat who hasn't yet endorsed Obama. "Brad's got flooding in his district, his people are flooding," he said. "If you ask Brad what he's doing in November, he'll tell you: he's voting for Barack Obama. If you ask Boren, 'I'm voting for Barack Obama.' I mean, it's what they're doing in November, for those guys, that matters. Not what they're doing today, when they're working on their districts. And they'll support their candidate."

DNC moving operations to Chicago to work closely with Obama Campaign. Good move.

Finally, the Iowa Flooding. Cedar Rapids. I worked there for the Obama Campaign before the Iowa Caucuses. I am just floored by the flooding, we worked out of the downtown office and it is unrecognizable. All these places that I know from heart, flooded through. And the big rally in Cedar Rapids on the island? Flooded through. Unbelivable. See it all here.
Pray for all the flooding victims and pray the government will come through, POST HASTE.
