OBAMA: Now even as we speak, there are those who are preparing to divide us, the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes.
Well, I say to them tonight, there's not a liberal America and a conservative America; there's the United States of America.
(APPLAUSE)
There's not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there's the United States of America.
(APPLAUSE)
The pundits, the pundits like to slice and dice our country into red states and blue States: red states for Republicans, blue States for Democrats. But I've got news for them, too. We worship an awesome God in the blue states, and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the red states.
We coach little league in the blue states and, yes, we've got some gay friends in the red states.
(APPLAUSE)
There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq, and there are patriots who supported the war in Iraq.
We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America.

Boys and their video games...
Good luck on your finals.
I feel like I'm in a time loop. REpeating the same patterns in my life over and over again.
Does anyone know much about Irish wakes, or experienced one? Apparently they celebrate departure, rather than mourn and lament it. What a beutiful concept. I'm so hung up on things ending. I can't bear it. My new attitude is that if it's over, hooray!
If you're leaving me, Hooray!!! If the event has run it's course, Yippee Skippee! (You guys have no idea how counter-intuitive this idea is to me psyche.)
I'm done blogging for now, so I'm out.
HOOORAYYYYY!!!!!!
