I just heard from my brother in law, whom I rely on for cyphering through the news catacombs to impart only the legitimate and truthful nuggets of information (I used to believe the associated press, then I found out they actually get some of their information from "E" the Entertainment channel.) So, I turned to my bro- in law and I queried...
"Bro in law", I said, "Why do I keep getting these emails from Barrack's camp for donations"
he replied.
"Hey did you know that he is matching if not exceeding the campaign funds raised by McCain?"
I looked at him, waiting for the real good stuff to come out, because so far... this wasn't very exciting.
He noticed
He added, "Yeah, John McCain's' camp is raising money with huge donations... and Barracks donations are $15.00 ea and he is getting MORE!" He noticed it was sinking in slowly so he looked at me and spoke slower... "Think about all the $15.00 dollar donations it would take to match a single million dollar donation... well Barrack is doing it!"
I got it. Through the alcohol induced fuzzz... I got it.
I turned to my computer. ( I had to shut down the iTunes, it kept confusing us, I mean me)
I checked my email... and sure enough, there was an email from the man himself, Barrack Obama, introducing his new running mate... Joe Biden.
The email was short and sweet, it basically said, "Hey.. here's Joe, why don't you take a minute to say hi"
I did
I clicked submit
And that page took me directly to a donation page, that gently but efficiently asked me to donate $15.00.
Why... $15.00 is only ....
a new school outfit for one of my three kids
or, 1/2 a piano lesson
or 1/3 of a 7 week course of swim lessons
or 1/4 of a 1/4 of a 1/2 a tank of gas
or no where near as much as any of my other bills... I'd hardly even miss it... and that's when the light went on......
That's when it all became clear to me.
The Barrack & Joe camp are going for the people that have lost all hope. The people that have nothing left to loose, the people that are willing to spend their last $15.00 for the week to try to get a black man in office before the end of the world.
Because that's what it is folks.
Please.
This isn't a race thing. It has nothing to do with race. But let's be honest. In the last very last history book published on the face of the earth before the thing going on between Georgia and Russia turns into a full on Nuclear War that we can't stop because we are recreating a country in the Mid-East where we thought they had weapons of mass destruction but we come to find it was just the whim of the King George that we go there and remake their culture..In that history book... who are we going to blame.
This is it.
Oh Man..... End of the world.
I thought we were all going to be able to escape to space before it came to this.... alas......
I wonder.
Just wonder.
