Nice! MoveOn sent me one for my car a few months ago, and a button a few weeks later. But that one is much nicer.

I like that . . . a "Free Obama" sticker - Yes, he needs to be free of his parties extreme left wingers who will try to shove their agenda down his throat. I pray for his success. He will need it. Sorry to say his gross lack of experience will mean he will heavily rely on advisors until he gets his sea-legs. This is the critical time. He won a majority based on the votes of independents who want government from the center, not far left-wingies. He will either have the, you-know-whats, to stand up to the democrats' various factions and establish discipline and control or he will soon succumb to the Washington meat grinder and you will see a great opportunity and political talent wasted. The pres. elects' after-election speech was an excellent beginning. He was already transitioning to the center, out of the campaign mode into a governing all-of-America mode.
Biden was wrong. The testing of his mettle won't come from without first. It will come from within the extreme pressures of his own party. Now comes the power grabbers. |

No such hunkering bro. Now that pres. elect Obama has used up the some total of his experience, those finely honed operating skills of a 'community organizer', that of getting the vote out, in this case for himself - he now will face the real prospect of having to lead a nation and in some instances the world. The jury is still out. Having picked Rahm Emanuel, an ultra-partisan liberal throw-back from the Clinton era for his chief of staff, it isn't a good sign for this 'great new era' of reaching across the isles. He will probably fill his cabinet with the same old Washington liberal apparachiks. What a bore. Tell me it aint so. If he lets John Kerry bully his way to Sec. of State he is a worse chump than could have been imagined. Kerry is a European butt-kisser. I am sure he is simply appalled, nay, almost fainteth that Bush was so utterly rude and undistinguished before the majestic auras of those foreign language accents. Such an uncouth cowboy. Looking them straight in the eye and saying, 'lead, follow or get out of the way'. Kerry can hardly wait to prostrate himself before their benevolent eyes bestowing favor. Gag! |
