Yes, this LJ supports Barack Obama. And no, I will not stop talking about it. Don't like it, leave.

So, now people are stealing Obama signs out of front yards. Sign stealing. Sign stealing? Do you think that stealing a sign is going to stop somebody from supporting Obama? Do you think it will stop them from telling other people that they support Obama? Or that a sign is negatively or positively influencing that one indecisive git who can't seem to make a decision after TWO YEARS? Clearly if I can't decide on my own brain power, if Joanne Six Pack has a sign in her yard, I'll vote like her because we're cool and I'm so easily influenced.

But, back to the sing stealing, because I guarantee that if you take two signs, ten more will pop up. Like rabbits that way. There'll probably be stickers too next time, because now you pissed somebody off. And you know what else? When they bought that stuff that you stole, it was probably part of a donation to the Obama/Biden campaign, so really, now they they've had to buy more, on your behalf, so really *you* just donated to the campaign.

So, thanks.

And Vote Obama in 2008.

In less irate news, Tony Bourdain is visiting Ireland on my telly and it's like sex for my ears!

I don't think that anyone's unaffected by this election. I can't think of anyone outside of the US who doesn't want Obama to win-- or at least, isn't really, really scared about what would happen if McCain was elected. Bloody hell, Boris bloody Johnson -Conservative, upper-class, Tory as they come Mayor of London- still supports Obama over McCain because the rest of the world is (appropriately!) terrified of what would happen if McCain got in to power.

Even people that disagree on fundamental idealogical terms with Obama still want him elected because they think he can do the job and would be good for the international arena, if only by keeping America from imploding and not, you know, distablizing the rest of the world. McCain/Palin? Terrifying to think of.
