Obama Okie

Okies For Obama

Oklahoma has at least one individualized Barack Obama bumper sticker.

Some online entrepreneurs are creating personalized state designs for the Democratic presumptive nominee for president. Here is what they have to say about their initiative:

We have created 18 stickers so far, including one for Oklahoma. Our aim is to really pull out all the stops with the design of the stickers to reflect the enthusiasm Obama inspires, as well as graphically demonstrate the diversity of voices uniting behind his campaign.

You can view the entire collection here. The site promises to donate 22.5 percent of its proceeds to the Obama campaign.

Ignore The Corporate Media

The corporate media’s coverage of the presidential election is as surreal and goofy as ever.

Do not count on getting any information about where the candidates stand on the issues. This election, according to the corporate media, is about innocuous comments made by the candidates’ supporters—not the candidates themselves--that get distorted way out of context. Oh yeah, then there are flag lapel pins and flip-flopping allegations. Here are two major stories the msm continues to ignore:

(1) Barack Obama has generated more genuine political enthusiasm in this country in a generation. He attracts huge, adoring crowds wherever he goes, and his speeches are electrifying a nation. This is truly a change in the political climate in this nation.

(2) All the polls, the results of three recent House elections in which Democrats won and the anecdotal evidence show this country wants a major change in direction in terms of the economy and the Iraq occupation. John McCain, obviously, does not represent change on any scale. If he did represent change, he would severely criticize Imperial President George and argue that GOP must undergo a huge transformation.

The corporate media, which is in a financial death spiral, continues to ignore these two storylines because it desperately wants a McCain presidency. The corporate media has been exposed as complicit enablers of the most corrupt presidential regime in American history. The media bigwigs obviously think a McCain presidency would validate or excuse their own negligence in helping to tear down this country’s democratic structures under the Bush administration.

The task at this point is to ignore the silly chatter and demand the media start covering where the candidates stand on the issues.
