And just as with McCain, we need more goofy wit coming from Obama

We get it, 'Bama, you're a control freak, you so need to let your hair down more than once in a while. Child, get a perm or some extensions or something because when you letting it hang a little loose like you did last night, people L. O. V. E. it.

It humanizes you and makes you accessible. You need to brush your shoulders off more than once in a while, you kow what I mean? I mean, even in a long-tail tuxedo you came as relaxed, unfuzzed and approachable.

'Bama, honey, you need more of this :


"Obviously I never knew your great grandfather, but from everything what Senator McCain has told me ... the two of them had a great time before prohibition."

LOL!

And it goes downhill from there.

Obama smacks Bloomberg, Bill Clinton, Chuck Schumer, Rudy Giuliani ... OMG! The smackdowns of Bill and Rudy were awesome.

But there is more, much more. He totally trash talks AIG. And then there's his ribbing of himself :


This is just priceless :

"I got my middle name from someone who thought I'd never run for president."

"My greatest strength? I guess it would be my humility. My greatest weakness? It's possible that I am a little too awesome".

Shut it down!

I D. I. E. !

That was way too full of totally effing WIN!

There's a lot of people asking over at Metafilter if Chris Rock wrote this speech for him. It's just too, too good.

What do you think? Because that part where he says that Fox News has been accusing him of having two children in-wedlock. That was, my friends, an awesomely WTF moment that only Chris would throw out there.

LOL!

YES! Zing! Scorch! This is

YES! Zing! Scorch! This is the warm, funny, witty, relaxed version people have seen on the campaign trail, who tells stories about pie, not the serious version we got in the debates. Chris Rock, I was thinking SNL crew, but you're right. Or maybe it's just a collection of all the jokes he and his staff have been kicking around the plane for the last few weeks.

I hope folks stick around for the end where he gets all serious and moving about the future, too.

JUST DROP IT

Obama, in all his full blown arrogance, could not let politics go for one night. He had to do his Alfred E. Newman impersonation and then couldn't help but go to his campaign handbook. He's so self centered, that if elected, it's all going to be about what Barack can do for Barack and nothing else.

QUOTES

I treat my writing like a privilege. It comes after editing the work of others and helping children learn proper grammar while developing their own style and voice. It comes after making sure my child's homework is done and making sure she is fed, clothes, and educated. It comes after everything. Scraps of stories and poems languish , missing deadlines and submission dates. There is no room of my own. My writing is interrupted constantly by requests and vacuuming and cries for food and attention and I feel guilty saying no, I am working on something that is mine. Thus I devalue my own work, my own voice.
