Hey everybody, my ever-entertaining college roomie and all around great friend Chris Roddy, sent me this funny and chilling video this morning. I love the fun things people are doing with technology these days, and this video is a great example. It both entertains (seeing my own name in a fake newscast SHOULDN'T be as novel as it is, and yet, I have to smirk every time my name is on the screen!), and paints a pretty vivid picture of how important it is to vote, especially for those of us who didn't want to see Bush in office in the first place, let alone those of us who recognize the need for REAL CHANGE now that his presidency draws to a close (once again, brought to us by the brilliant minds at moveon.org). I vow to you that nothing like this newscast will air because I promise to be at my polling place on the 4th, and I hope you will too. You obviously know that I will be casting my vote for Barrack and I beg of you to do the same, I honestly feel that the healing this man could bring about in our country will be nothing short of historic. However, vote for the candidate you most believe in (although I would strongly disagree with anyone who chooses to vote for the Maverick Moose-Killers ;) ), I respect anyone who votes more than anyone who didn't. But seriously, please vote Obama... McCain is an honorable man, whom has earned all our respect, I mean that in all sincerity. If Palin weren't his running mate, and he were running against John Kerry, I might HONESTLY have to consider voting for him... but he's running against Obama, and he allowed his team to talk him into condescendingly choosing Palin in an attempt to win rural and female voters, and most importantly he represents what this country needs least right now... A more of the same ideology, and an aggressive military presence in the White House. Obama is the only candidate honestly representing change. And we need change... badly
