super dooper big fat tuesday

i voted in the ca primary today.
little t tugged at my pant leg and i punched my support for barack.
i love the guy and it's stupid to vote for a woman just because i'm a woman. i don't even like hillary. she uses too much hairspray.
sometimes obama speaks so beautifully i want to cry.
i mean imagine having that after eight years of verbal assaults from the decider. maybe someday soon i'll be able to watch the president speak on tv and not feel sick. that would be nice.
anyway, if you know nothing about bo (unfortunate initials), learn something - especially you folks over there in virginia and d.c. don't brush it off because it's a primary and then complain later that you don't like the final candidate, you slackers. (and i guess that goes for republicans too, so get out there on feb. 13. especially you, geoff)
your time's comin.

Obama Supports Driver's Licenses for Illegal Aliens

(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), who is running second to Sen. Hillary Clinton (D.-N.Y.) in polls of the Democratic presidential race, said in a debate on CNN Thursday that he supports giving driver's licenses to illegal aliens.

Clinton, meanwhile, said she did not. When asked, she simply said, "No." That is an apparent reversal of the position she took in an Oct. 30 debate hosted by MSNBC. Then, she gave a long and apparently contradictory series of answers about whether to give illegals driver's licenses.

Those apparent non-response answers sparked controversy, and former President Bill Clinton came to his wife's defense. He argued that a quick answer to such questions would make "all the Democrats vulnerable to a Swift-boat-kind of ad in the general election."

In CNN's debate on Thursday, it was Obama who initially used oblique language to discuss his position in favor of granting driver's licenses to illegal aliens. CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer, who moderated the debate, eventually pinned him down to an unambiguous answer.

The issue has been highlighted in the Democratic presidential campaign since the Oct. 30 debate on MSNBC, when Clinton gave a contradictory answer on the issue to host Tim Russert.

When Russert pointed out that Clinton had told a New Hampshire newspaper that New York Gov. Elliot Spitzer's plan to give driver's licenses to illegal aliens made a lot of sense, Clinton at first seemed to defend Spitzer's plan. Then, she appeared to distance herself from it.

"Why does it make a lot of sense to give an illegal immigrant a driver's license?" Russert asked Clinton in that debate.

"We know in New York we have several million at any one time who are in New York illegally," said Clinton. "They are undocumented workers. They are driving on our roads. The possibility of them having an accident that harms themselves or others is just a matter of the odds. It's probability. So what Governor Spitzer is trying to do is to fill the vacuum."
