The Obama posting

This posting I do because I think it would be good for the world we all live in to have Obama as next US president instead of McCain. And I do not want to let this day go by without posting something in support. Because I would not have done this I might regret it. So here it is.

McCain calls for attacks on USA if Obama wins?

Just now (2008-10-24) McCain on a rally said that if Obama will get elected the USA will be tested by other countries. This means McCains calls on terrorists and foreign countries to attack the USA if he does not win. This is very dirty. How stupid can someone be?

Guess what happens when he does this also when talking to leaders of foreign countries!  Watch this…. bravo to CNN and Campbell Brown for doing just what is there job and standing firm:  [...]

My take on Sarah Palin, conventions and stuff
