Check out the photos below:

What’s that at the bottom right hand corner? Looks like Mr. Zuckerberg likes to smoke pot while he wears girls shoes:

Ah, the justice is sweet!

Oh happy days are here again… The future looks bright and I helped turn my home state of Indiana blue blue blue.

Wallpaper For Obama

Here is my Election night map:

I’m from Indiana, I’ve seen the ground game and turnout here first hand. I fully expect the state to go blue, but by a very narrow margin; 2% or so. I would not be surprised if Indiana becomes the poster child for Republican “voter fraud” after they lose this election.

I made this map nearly 2 weeks ago, so I’m standing by my guns from then, before new polling data that suggests that Georgia could be an upset, and before there was a chance that Florida would backslide. I have basically given Obama all the bellweather states and all the long standing battlegrounds and a few new ones.

Maine is split for me because Maine is nearly always split, but I expect Nebraska to stay solid red.

Anyway, that’s my basic rundown and I’m happy to discuss it further with people in the comments.

So,

I’m sitting around the house the night before the election watching some admittedly biased liberal news in regards to Olberman and Maddow, and inbetween the programs, a familiar ad comes up on the TV:

It’s an ad that I’ve seen for the past week on tv. I’m not sure how long it’s been on air in Indiana. Long enough that I hadn’t ever really paid attention. Till tonight. Something peculiar caught my eye. Something that makes me accuse The Republican Trust PAC of stealing copyrighted material. I accuse The Republican Trust of stealing the following image of Barack Obama from the Associated Press unless they can provide evidence to the contrary:

See, I run a little website where I’ve been making wallpaper and posters for Barack Obama. I’ve been pouring over images of the Senator From Illinois since late June. I’ve seen almost all of them that you can on Google, and I know a few things about that giant head of Obama.

1. The picture is easy to find on Google and is Hi-Res (good for TV)

2. I took the Image from the AC 360 Blog

3. The image originally came from the Associated Press

I took the pic to make a wallpaper image for my site where I tried to be flattering, not distort stories and not to make any money from it. Here’s what I did:

Here is the Original from AC 360:

As you can see from the imagery used in the ad the picture is identical from the AC post and my wallpaper. If you look in the bottom right left hand corner of the original pic you can see the Associated Press watermark.

I would like to see the recipt from The Republican Trust for this image. Untill then, they stole the picture and used it for a swift-boat style ad the week before the election.

Keep it up you picture theivin’ shit heads.

We can very easily get caught up in the shouting and bluster of a political season, especially when it’s as partisan and important as this. The tension couldn’t be thicker, and it gets hard to step back from the edge when everyone is marching full tilt.

I came across this picture tonight, and it has re-framed everything for me. It has reminded me that behind all the loud talk, accusations and rhetoric that the idea that we are actually and truly going to elect a black man president of the United States of America…well it’s overwhelmingly historic and I am just happy to be alive and part of the scene. This is what our country is all about and should forever be:

These two boys waited as a long line of adults greeted Senator Obama before a rally on Martin Luther King Day in Columbia, S.C. They never took their eyes off of him. Their grandmother told me, “Our young men have waited a long time to have someone to look up to, to make them believe Dr. King’s words can be true for them.” Jan. 21, 2008.

What the shit is wrong with the Republican party these days? I feel like they’re willfully campaigning to lose this election. Who in their right mind thinks you can say these things?

It is disgusting that these quotes are given such a pass by the party and campaign. John McCain needs to stand up and be a man about it and tell his surrogates and supporting candidate that these gaffes are not only wrong, but borderline unpatriotic. Nancy Pfotenhauer needs to be removed from the campaign, Michelle Bachman should not be invited back onto television, and Sarah Palin needs to apologize for implying that ANY part of The United States of America is less than American.

Look, like many people I wear my politics on my shirt-sleeve. I’m okay being open and a staunch democrat and liberal, but to say that I’m not American, to imply that my support of Obama is a veiled act of national betrayal or that my very liberal county in Indiana is somehow not part of Indiana because we don’t like McCain….I- well not only would that never come from me, I’m just dumfounded that anyone, let alone three high profile nationally known figures think it’s acceptable to state out-loud on television.

This is basically political bigotry. To say that your views are not valid because they disagree with mine, or that where you live is not important because it’s not voting Republican is shameful. These three should be embarrassed by what they have said and they should really really think about whether or not they want to work in public service.

Being a democratic representative of the people does not mean you get to pick and choose which people you represent. Sarah Palin could be the Vice-President of all Americans, not just the small towns, not just the conservative pockets. She would be Vice-President of New York City, of San Francisco, of Atlanta, and Chicago. She’d be the Vice-President of my town, your town, and EVERY state in the country.

This strikes particularly close to home because I am from Indiana. Traditionally this is a very VERY red state. This election cycle it’s now competitive with a very real chance of it turning blue on the electoral map for the first time in nearly 50 years. Does that mean, that every Hoosier that has rejected the fear mongering and bad management of the Republican party isn’t a real Hoosier now? Is McCain’s campaign going to call my neighbors “Georgetown Conservatives” that aren’t really a part of the party? Many people I live around actually still want to be Republicans and would perfer to vote for a good republican candidate. The McCain-Palin ticket has been anything but that. Senator Obama has as much won votes in this state as John McCain has driven them away, and now his campain and surrogates are going to lash out at us? Fuck that. And Fuck you.

John McCain, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachman, Nancy Photenhauer, and anyone else that promotes these divisive, bigoted, offensive, and patently mean spirited sentiments that fly in the face of anything left decent about being American….On the behalf of all the democratic voters, former republicans, and any independents you’ve driven away…

GO FUCK YOURSELVES AND THE FEAR MONGERING FLAG BEARING CROSSES YOU RODE IN ON!

I want to give people the benefit of the doubt, I really do, but this… this is inexcusable talk. The following are the actual quotes from these people.

Regular PBH contributor AlvinBlah has been working for months on a side project, Wall Paper For Obama, which has turned into an astounding collection of wallpapers and portraits that can be printed and used. He describes below:

All my posters and wallpaper are at 300dpi resolution for hi-res monitors and worthy print quality. What Alec has so graciously posted on PBH are all compressed versions of the work, follow the DL links for the higher quality product. I’ve done nearly everything exclusively in Photoshop and occasionally dabbling in Illustrator. I have provided target download links on my website for all the super high quality files. Check out the Blogger widget on the top right hand side of wallpaperforobama.blogspot.com for the links.

Thanks for checking out my work, and please, pass it around to your friends and family.

Dear Mr. Paulson,

Fuck you and your idiotic companies and corporate greed. Fuck your bad policy and defense of CEO “golden parachutes”. Fuck your fight against mortgage relief for hardworking Americans that bought into the dream. Fuck you and your insistence that our retirement was safe in the market. Mr. Paulson, fuck you and your bailout.

I don’t want to save these companies, I don’t want to keep rich people rich, and I don’t want the debt. Mr. Paulson shut the fuck up so we can fix our road and bridges. Shut the fuck up so we can end the war in Iraq. Shut the fuck up so we can stop burning oil in our cars. Mr. Paulson, shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down.

You demand 700 billion from me, my children, my grandchildren, and my great-grandchildren. You demand that 700 billion comes from my wallet every year for longer than I will live. 700 billion can end world hunger. 700 billion can stop global warming. 700 billion could cure cancer, stop the ravages of AIDS and make the terrors of malaria a thing of the past. 700 billion could make our education system the best in the world. 700 billion could save our health care, social security, and welfare programs. 700 billion could improve the lives of human beings the world around immeasurably. Mr. Paulson instead of saving the world, you have demanded we save a handful of companies. To be perfectly blunt Mr. Paulson stacked against the weight of the world, I don’t give a fuck about you or your buddy companies.

You and your friends have driven the strongest and most robust economy in the world straight into the ditch like a drunk driver on prom night. You are a failure and a disgrace to the ideals of Americanism. Fuck off, you don’t get any of my money.

Sincerely,

America

P.S. Please tender your resignation, you’re fired you incompetent fucker.
