I hate just about everyone running, but I will admit that it's a hoot watching Hillary and her gang of people who have been kissing her "self-entitled" butt for the past several years as they scurry about trying to figure out what to do with Obama. Suddenly they are realizing that their dream of another Clinton presidency is a lot less likely without voters backing the plan. I bet they never expected this! If she doesn't win, they'd be waiting a minimum of 8 years for payback. Now things are getting nasty, because getting nasty is all she's got left.

I can't wait to see the mess when Obama wins the popular vote, and Hillary gets just enough "superdelegates" to turn the tide.

Not to mention seeing feminism pitted against the race issue. It's like watching a clash of the titans.

Fun!

Thanks for posting this. I wish I could get up there, but I live down in Gwangju. It's great to see a DA getting started in Korea though.


Obama 08!

OK, I tried finding directions to the meeting, but failed. The address provided takes me to homepage, so I searched that and finally found the exact same information as posted here. It included the link for directions that took me back to the homepage.

SO HOW ABOUT SOME DIRECTIONS!

This Sunday 1-3pm brunch (10.000won) 3 pm meeting.--
--Labtops (wifi, hot zone) are welcome to help voters register on site at the Big Rock.
-- A short (200-600 words) write up about the event and Democrats Abroad in Seoul is needed for local media (done on the spot)
--City chapters of Democrats Abroad ROK can form once we have a solid operation in Seoul. (This means if you live in other places in the ROK you can still form a local group)

Directions to Big Rock Brewery in Gangnam:

Big Rock Brewery is at Gangnam Station (Line 2; the green line). Go out Exit 7. Take the first right and walk all the way up the hill. When you reach the T in the road, you've found the very short road that Big Rock is on. Turn right and go about 20 more yards, following the bend in the road. If you get to another 4-way intersection, you've gone too far. If you get lost, call Steve at 010-5602-0726

you might just forward a note to Nancy Pelosi and let her know that little back-stabbing stunt she pulled regarding "taking impeachment off the table" lost my vote FOREVER as a Democrat.

To wit I no longer will vote as a registered Democrat. I will register as an Indepenent upon returning to the U.S. Yes, sometimes I might vote for a Democrat but no longer will consider myself a member of the Democratic Party.

Further, I do believe the two-party system as it currently exists will be the deathblow to the Republic.

The Democrats may be the lesser of two evils, but they are still evil.

Impeach the Bastard - and his cohorts. Quit piddling about with the taxpayers, for goodess sakes, people are dying already! Evil or Very Mad

End the War! Bring the troops home, NOW!

Sure I would love to forward a note to Ms. Pelosi...
Sounds like you might be having a private physchological relationship with her anyway... you know all the synapsed cliches: of being stabbed in the back.... Deathblow to the republic, lesser of two evils ,but still evil
My God this reads like the throw away dialouge to a later Star Wars travesty.. And is that your picture on the upper left hand side...

Perhaps Ms. Pelosi isn't quite your type of genderbender after all.

Remember about the internet... when everybody is somebody then nobody is anybody.

Interested in a real somebody... Listen to Obama lay it on the line with race and religion.... embed in prevous post.

Cu Sunday

written like a true bureaucrat Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

so tell us is Goldman Sachs still Obama's biggest contributor?

fyi, they are one of the most respected brokerage houses on Wall Street - which also means one of the most conservative - hardly much of a change from the present admin.

Obama is nobody's fool - he'll dip his hand in the till and take whatever he can just like the other dirty politicos before him....no different whatsoever.

and as for your oh so arrogant critique of my writing - get over yourself all ready - this IS an internet forum for goodness sakes - who gives a hoot if I use cliches or not - at least I understand how to use them - do you?

uh, let me clarify that since perhaps it might be over your head - the Democratic Party is one piss-poor tired cliche - there - that clear enough for ya? Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes
