Heh. That's awesome.

Colin Powell endorses Barack Obama

From everything I've seen so far about his endorsement, he does seem rather tired of the attitude and negativity coming from the McCain camp. It's got to be chapping McCain's ass, because it appears that McCain's got a great deal of respect for Powell. Well, I hope Powell doesn't read any right-wing blogs in the next few days. The vitriol that can come out of some right-wing sites at the faintest whiff of dissent can be absolutely vile.

In other news, I'm thiiiiis close to cracking 10k today on The Hollow Girl. \o/

The video of Powell endorsing Obama

I love him, I really do. Not only does he make a concise intelligent argument as to why he'll be voting for Obama, but he also manages to make a point about the Muslim comments that maybe might knock some sense into a few Republicans. (Well, if we're lucky.)

The photo he's talking about is this, from here:

Nice try, sweetie.

Dear Otis,

This morning, you finished off the milk left over from my cereal. Then you begged for some of the chicken from my chicken barbecue dinner. But baby, I can guarantee you that as much fun as "I want what Mommy's having!" can be, you do not want a chocolate brownie with marshmallow frosting. Really.

Sincerely,

Me

P.S. Considering how much of my food you steal, why aren't you fatter? Or fat at all? I'm confused.

A counter to the "liberal feminist agenda"?

Yeah, feminists are terrible. Wanting ownership of their own bodies and equal pay and protection against domestic violence and rape ... seriously, why would they want that when they could help this pretty brunette right here advance her career at the sake of their own rights?

And to make up for all of the serious posts ...

... here is a video of baby sloths.

Huh. That's a little serious for a LOLPolitics, isn't it?

EDIT: Also, Rep. Michele Bachmann -- you know, the one calling for another round of McCarthyism -- claims what she said was "misread" and that she didn't say that Obama's views are anti-American.

( *buzzer noise* Try again, Rep. Bachmann. )
