A Good Day

This election day in Philadelphia was the most important and most joyous I have ever seen. The city streets buzzed with exitement, and everyone greeted everyone else and gave short nods of assent to complete strangers. After eight years of shame, we could walk proudly as citizens again. Click here to hear what happened that day, and to hear the sound of a city firing on all cylinders.

Push Back

As we near the end of this Presidential campaign, the Republicans have begun to stoop lower than many thought they could. Last week, the McCain campaign released a press release entitled "Barack Obama's Friend Tried To Kill My Family." They have been using rumors started by the worst and most repulsive of provacateurs as talking points. In the podcast today (click here), I detail the truth about some of these rumors, the kind of people behind these slurs, and why Obama can't respond in kind, even if the real questionable associations are those of John McCain and Sarah Palin.

In my podcast I discuss Andy Martin, and as loathe as I am to do it, below is a link to the sleazy Fox News report that last allowed this man with the soul of a cockroach on the air:

New South Philly and Old South Philly

Last Friday, the Obama campaign organized a debate watching party at the South Philly Bar & Grill, halfway between Pat's Steaks and Geno's Steaks. The Phillies were trying to clinch their playoff spot, and a bar full of earnest liberals taking the big screens away from the Phils wasn't universally loved. The fact that they took the screens away to support Barack Obama wasn't appreciated by everyone, either.

Here is the debate, just as it was that night at the cheesesteak nexus of the universe.
