Never underestimate the power of the bully pulpit. Barack Obama is pissed at the delays, not just with the idiot clowns in the GOP but also lollygaggers like Ben Nelson.
Time to start lighting up the lines.
Part 1. Startin garoun the 7 minute mark, Obama begins openly mocking and deriding the GOP. [...]

Sometimes I think I’ve been a little shrill about the pools and libraries, emphasizing the negative over the positive. So I want to imagine something that I think would be truly awesome.
It’s June 2009 in a neighborhood slated to lose a pool. But instead of a bunch of uncomfortably hot kids and adults, [...]
Obama Victory Good for Pennsylvania
Obama and Casey are very close:
The pair met in ‘05 in Philly, where Obama did a fundraiser for Casey. He did two more in ‘06, the year Casey beat Republican incumbent Rick Santorum.
Then Casey, while almost every prominent Pennsylvania Democrat backed Hillary Clinton, endorsed Obama last March and traveled with him during the primary [...]

Obama bodyslams McCain and Bush.

He ties the two together, than hangs an anvil on their necks, and then shoves them off the plank.
My mom, who voted for Clinton, called me up while Obama was live on TV. “OK,” she said. “I’m votiong [...]

Casey Endorses Obama
This is good news for the Obama campaign, especially considering that so many Pennsylvania power-players like Ed “You’ll Accept Slots Parlors in Your Neighborhood Because I Say So and You’ll LIKE IT! Rendell and Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter have already endorsed Clinton.
Inquirer:
The endorsement comes as something of a surprise. Casey, a deliberative [...]
Pravda on the Potomac
It has been months since I took a look at the Bush-loving Washington Post. The op-ed page is just an embarrassment (with perhaps the lone exception of Gene Robinson), and the news section has (IMO) been on a downward spiral. My dad told me there was a good op-ed by Eliot Spitzer today, [...]
