Nice!

I don't know if this was the first, but it looks like they snagged a joke that has been playing prominently in commercials on Comedy Central for quite a while. In ads for "Little Bush" he's been making a joke about the country not needing a black guy in the White House begging for change.

Heehee, too funny.

Gn2Dlnd · 03-19-2008, 09:53 PM

Change is good!

Oh, how this made me laugh. And I so badly wanted to laugh today. Thanks!

It's just that the overriding message for Obama is "let's change! I'm change! We're all chaaaaaaaaanging!"..... which seems about the silliest platform ever. Being for "change" is actually about the most "status quo" platform one can have.

But he is a good speaker!

Why did I suspect that you opened with a joke just so you could eventually say this? You're reducing and dismissing everything else he says. Have you even listened to his "race speech" from the other day? One of the most eloquent and intelligent statements about where we, as a nation, are regarding race relations. I believe this speech will have historical significance far beyond the simple expedience of dealing with Rev. Wright's angry rhetoric.
