Why I'm voting for Obama

I'll try and keep the political talk on this blog to a minimum. I do enough squawking on Plurk and Twitter and even my Posterous blog. But the endorsement of Obama by Colin Powell is HUGE. What he says about the state of the Republican party, Palin, and the attack tactics of the McCain campaign ring so sensibly. His statement in this video hits at the heart of why Obama should be the next President of the United States.

I will also say that if I could vote for Colin Powell, I would (and not as a write-in, as an official candidate).

W.

He's a lame duck with currently the lowest approval ratings ever. We're on the verge of electing his replacement, but even before we do that a movie about this man will hit theaters courtesy of Oliver Stone and Lionsgate. I'm talking about George W. Bush.

I'm certainly curious and I bet so will everyone else. Early reviews are lukewarm to the movie, but who really cares, right? America is fed up with our current president and what better way to celebrate the end of his run, then with a satirical drama. With a tag line, "Anyone can grow up to be the president", how else are we to view this movie?

Now I'm not an Oliver Stone fan -- at all (Alexander, anyone?). Although he sure does love his Presidents (JFK and Nixon), and frankly, those are the movies I enjoyed the most from Mr. Stone. Which brings me back to W.

First of all, the cast looks great and believable (Josh Brolin, Thandie Newton & Richard Dryfuss specifically). Also, the trailer does a pretty good job of selling the movie.

But is it too soon to for this biopic? Shouldn't we have another 10 to 15 years before digging into the life and times of George W.?

I honestly don't think it's too early. The movie just needs to be good. We'll just have to wait till Oct. 17th to find out. Here's the trailer:

What is Sarah Palin talking about?

Is it me, or is she rambling? Will someone explain? Thanks, E

UPDATE: The great Tina Fey and Amy Poehler provide more comic relief as they comment on the Couric/Palin interview. As someone said on Twitter, "...the sketch wasn't so much a parody as it was a reinactment". Ha!
