End our 50-year national nightmare now: Vote Obama!

Here's a letter-to-the-editor that will be printed in my local paper. Permission hereby granted to use any part or all of it in letters to your hometown papers.

Open thread: Way to go, George!

George Entenman, our frequent visitor and friend, has a most excellent and funny letter in today's News and Observer. Congratulations, George, and thanks for the mention.

Very clever.

So Rob Christensen, The N&O's political columnist, breaks his leg while on vacation in France but says absolutely nothing in his July 15 column about his medical care? He leaves his readers to wonder whether Michael Moore's "Sicko" is right about the French medical system.

Christensen doesn't say which leg he broke, but I'm beginning to think that the bloggers at BlueNC.com are on to something when they say Christensen leans to the right.

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
