Please Read

Barack Obama will be the democratic nominee for president. In November, he will be elected President of the United States. In 2012, he will be re-elected for a second term.

In his eight years as President of the United States, he will work with the Congress, governors from fifty states, mayors from hundreds of cities, and citizens from communities across the country, to help rebuild the foundation of our Constitutional democracy.

During that time, there will be some people who dislike him, call him names, and attempt to keep him from accomplishing his legislative goals. But I promise you that at the end of those eight years in office, our country will be in the best shape it has been for many a decade.

Relax, watch the news, listen to Bob Marley, and enjoy the start of the weekend. Everything is okay. Everything is going to be okay.

Peace,
H2O Man

Great post.

Have a great weekend, H2O Man.

I was too late getting out of work to get there early, and it was pouring. But I did wave at the arena as I passed. I saw the rally at home, on the couch, streaming on CNN.

I am sitting here bawling and you came along with a beautiful healing message. :hug:

good vibes to Obama. When former and current presidential contenders are making references to Obama's death by assassination, I think we need to a few moments and send out good thoughts and vibes and prayers for well wishes.

K & R & Have a Great Weekend!

Memorial Day weekend, my friend, and thanks for the inspiring visions! :hug:

but I have heavy heart today with this statement she made, this comes
a week after Huckerbee made a joke about Obama being shot, I take
Senator Clinton's comment very seriously, besides this is not the first
time she has made that comment here look at this;

He will need our help, like you said people will try to keep him from accomplishing his legislative goals. Many people.

We must continue to keep pressure on the knuckleheads and the corrupt, we can't expect one man to do it all.

I can't help but worry, but I appreciate your message.

K&R

We need to have his win be greater than any other so we can beat those electronic voting machines. We also need to get out and canvass door to door for Obama to help spread the truth. There is a lot of people who just watch the MSN (propaganda).

let's kick this message to the top of the homepage. this is the message we all need to keep foremost in our minds.

had no problem voting for him.

Obama is not qualified and he is not deserving.

Steve

based on what, his reputation as the ultimate family man? his commitment to public service? I know all the negatives are piling up but I'm still not buying your argument.

I know him and he is a good human being and I like him. If John Edwards was still running I would be happy, because he is not a zit like Hillary. Obama is more qualified and more deserving than Hillary or Edwards. Sorry Steve that you don't like him. Well, really no I am not sorry, I really don't care.

Continues through the moral ethical code you learn from your family! Continues with your own, growth maturity process, educational, travel experiences....... the amount of soul searching, self actualizing you do!
Which experience is more likely to generate early soul searching, having a critical Republican Father, or being abandoned by your Father, to be raised by your very strong, ( morally & ethically) Mother?
Only then can you apply the "resume" part of the equation. How many years in state legislation, working in non profits etc.!
( or on the Walmart Board, being first lady, Senator)
I think Hillary has been too busy achieving to be reflective enough.
Ov=bama not sure I think so
Kucinich very clearly sothe man is pure truth!
If you have ever had & raised children, you can see very clearly that they are their own entities at birth. It is up to the parents to nurture and support those innate qualities. Unfortunately too many parents try to fit their children into their prechosen template, whether it fits the child or not.
I saw a TV program ( on link) where 2 sociologists, one from Africa, talked about child rearing methods. The African told of how her entire tribe, watched the child, for their talents and abilities. Then the entire tribe steered the child toward being that being. That makes SO MUCH SENSE TO ME! My parents raised us that way. Being AMericans they missed widely on some accounts, but all three of us are great "out of the box thinkers"!

welcome aboard. Just in time for the big win

I didn't think so. I really do believe that HC supporters have their heads in the ground at this point. How can they still support her?

Thank you, H2O Man. Your posts are always spot-on.

Glad to recommend.

This weekend, I'm going to help my son fix his car. I'm going to spend some quality time with my elderly dog and my elderly mom and together, we'll go to the grocery store and have a nice chat.

Then, I'm going to walk with my wonderful wife, my partner for life. We'll go out for breakfast. I'll call my daughter, talk with my son in law, and we'll work in our front yard planting some native plants.

This temporary rancor will be over soon enough; I appreciate your grounding influence, H2OMan, I really do.

Nature at this time of year is especially spectacular, and we fully intend to enjoy it.

Thanks for making sense.

Smell the flowers, everyone.

K&R, H20

that I believe that Obama has the potential to be the best president of my lifetime (45 years, give or take a few) and possibly of the past 100 years or more. That doesn't mean he will be, circumstances beyond his control will certainly have an effect of his presidency, and could even derail it. But, if he is able to lead this country in the direction I believe he wants to, and accomplish some of the ideas he has laid out for us, and operating with what I am expecting to be a clear majority in both the House and the Senate, I think 2009-2016 may prove to be magical years. He will face hurdles and unforeseen circumstances for sure, as any President does, but I am hopeful that he will rise to the challenges as they present themselves, and show the world that the US government of the Bush years was an aboration, and that we can again be a country to look up to, with a good and generous heart. I am also hopeful that his successful presidency will go a long way towards improving race relations in this country. Just think how great it will be if at least some of the ignorant people who refuse to vote for him based solely on the color of his skin, who are probably also disproportionately affected by the terrible economy we are in, are at the end of his first term, once again bouyed by the hope that there is still an American dream. Yes, I have great hopes for his presidency, as long as Hillary and Bill don't somehow keep it from ever happening.

between the power brokers who don't want to lose their grip and the power of a candidate who is fueled by small contributions from individuals who haven't had a say for many years. Obama himself said that this would be his only run, before they "boiled all the hope " out of him. This is the people's chance to make a difference. Btw, his speech on Cuba today was very refreshing.

but when I get home tonight I will make it a point to watch it. Thanks for the heads up.

The effects of Bush's tragedy will only get worse and no one could make a difference in one term.

The next President will be blamed and may fall in 2012.

I hope not but Jimmy Carter was a victim of this effect.

Reagan was working undercover to cause Iran not to talk to Carter. I have forgotten most of it, but I found out recently just how it was done.

by the way, KO just made his special comment to Hillary and named almost every one of her and Bill's doings during this campaign. His rage somehow helped me to vent.

Reagan was going to be, I bitch slapped him back by pointing out Reagan cut and run on the tragic death of our marines. There was almost no response. So much for being "tough"

and Obama's campaign network this year. We have to make sure a Democrat stays in there as long as they can to fix this. Our activism won't stop with a dem in the white house.

fwiw, I'm making margaritas this evening and enjoying life.

I have been pretty disturbed about this comment, and what it means to have a candidate do this, and in a bad place about what can be done to get above nonsense like this.

Reading your post came at a good time - I need to find some balance, but I know that what you said is going to come to pass (which is what I believe). Must reflect on where we are actually headed, and leave this "stuff" to run its course. Thanks again.

:grouphug:

Though a quaker friend also recently told me that if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans. I don't know how things'll turn out, but I still feel that in the end, "everything's gonna be alright."

Everyday brings me closer to that realization.

Alas, any more and I get the dreaded "Error. You have already recommended this post" message!

I believe you are a very wise man. I think the potential is there, like it has not been for a very long time. Obama was not my first choice. My first choice didn't even run...Al Gore, breaking my heart again for the second time. But I have come to believe Obama is exactly what we need, and that he will excel at the job. I also think he must be one hell of a chess player, to judge from the way he has run his campaign!

thanks for the vibes!

other then that, even the gas rip off will eventually work itself out...

Thank you friend.

just light up, and chill out on the beanbag. It's all good. The nightmare will soon be over.

Funny, all a sudden I feel like going on vacation to Jamaica :)

Just the ticket.

:)

but afterwards we all must work from now till November (and beyond) to make sure that this happens.

and as for accomplishing his legislative goals, I hope he has a strong Democratic majority to work with him in both Houses.

...seems entirely premature and carries far too much certainty. There is no way you can reasonably predict what you've predicted. Are you claiming some sort of clairvoyance? I'm frankly shocked at this from someone usually so level headed. Have you really drunk the Obama kool-aid?

There is nothing negative said about anyone really in this thread by H20. That is a very good thing. That is the point. That is the future I want to live through, and it is a future that most any American, certainly most any Democrat, should feel happy forseeing. Let's forsee something positive. It's fine for you or anyone else to forsee an alternate positive reality, but tonight this one seems appropriate for many of us to share together.

the problem is you have to believe in obama first in order to be able to partake, i.e., one could substiute hrc in the statement and it would be just as beuatiful an image, right. perhaps H2O man should step in and say if this is a prediction or an affirmation or if any postivie affirmation has an equal value to his (yours). Frankly I am not a fan of anyone who wants to "reach across the aisle" to bush's friends in order to heal anything. the whole thing smacks of sycophantism and soft-headedness. and don't get me wrong, i like positive afirmations as much as the next guy. this one just doesn't sit right with me.

here's my positive affirmation: kucinich 2008!

I looked at your profile, and saw that you enjoy the guitar. Maybe I can use that as a vehicle for my explanation.

I had a nice phone conversation with one of my best friends yesterday. We were co-workers for many years at the local mental health clinic, something that I think you can appreciate can be stressful work at times. We used to find ways to relax after some of the "community-based crises" we dealt with. I could tell some stories .....

Anyhow, my friend always wanted to learn to play the guitar. Sometimes we would sit around and play different Beatles songs, etc. He also wrote a few verses, and I always encouraged him to go with it. Recently, he wrote a song about his late father and brother, and his son-in-law, a professional musician, recorded it. My friend told me yesterday that his son-in-law called to say that a production company is interested in using it in a movie. I think it is of that quality, but admit that I'm not entirely objective, being his friend and having lost my father and one brother, as well.

If it does get play, lots of people will like it. They will interpret it from their own frame of reference. What it means to my friend may or may not be the same as how others might hear it.

Yesterday, there was a comment by Senator Clinton, regarding RFK's death. People heard it from their own frame of reference. For many, it was painful to hear, because of the recent news on Ted Kennedy, and the 40-year aniversary which approaches. RFK was a significant figure in many of our lives.

My post was simply my response to what Senator Clinton said, and the reaction of DUers here. It is likely to be intrepreted differently by many people: while some people might like it, others obviously disagree strongly with it (or anything I say on DU). That's the way it should be.

What my OP means to me is of no more, or less, significance than what it means to anyone else. But it appears that the majority of people who responded do understand what I said.

You mentioned Dennis Kucinich. I can't speak for him, of course, but what I hear from him is that we need to work together. No single Chief Executive can resolve the problems we face as a country. We need a president who respects the Constitution, the intended balance of powers in the federal government, and who will work with Congress, governors, mayors, and who respects the need for active citizen participation in our political world. I believe that is something that Kucinich and Obama share, and I have not reached this conclusion by drinking "kool aid." That suggestion only means that others are coming from a vey different frame of reference than I, because the truth is that I came to my position only after taking a long and objective look at Obama and his personal history. There are, of course, areas where I disagree with him, but I think that he has good judgement, political skills, and is attempting to do what he believes is best for the country. More important, however, is my firm belief in the basic goodness of human beings, which leads me to my thinking that the American people at the grass roots level are going to be the primary agents of change in the upcoming eight years.

:hi:

just kick and enjoy.

Two nights ago I dreamed I travelled to New York City to see and listen to Ziggy Marley. My sub-conscious mind must be craving the peace. I actually "You Tubed" some of his songs the next day to show to my co-workers.

critique him if he goes wrong too. I will not be an undying loylist if he mis-steps. Not that I don't like the guy I just want us to make sure we keep him honest.

and there's no limit on how much he can accomplish. A new world of possibilities awaits us.

This is, by far, the best one I ever kicked!


Ahhhhh! I feel like I can now, finally relax.....


Thank you ever so much, H2O Man


Peace, and Loving Kindness!

I actually read a few GD-P threads tonight (blecch), and your post really helped me get my head back on straight!

Good Vibrations GALORE to you, H2O Man!

:patriot:

And thank you for this post.

MAN - whotta day. Plans this evening got up-ended by a brake failure (in bumper-to-bumper traffic - if it had to happen, I'm SO grateful it was then - when NOBODY could go more than one mile per hour, not just me!!!). I was glum. Must be just about the start of Mercury Retrograde. But MAN-OH-MAN... After the misadventure Hillary Clinton had today... I'm grateful to have the "problems" I do.

THANK YOU for the uplifting post, H2O Man!!! I think we all need it. And I think we all need to fixate on such a message - that begins with "Relax," and ends up with "Everything is going to be okay."

Thanks. I needed that. A LOT.

:yourock: :patriot: :headbang: :hug: :thumbsup:

May 26 - June 19th, but approaching fast

Astrologer friends have told me about Mercury Retrograde and how best to cope, and many of them have also advised me that the "cusp" of each period, the last few days before and the last few days after, and the first couple of days into and exiting - there's a "wobble" effect that is sometimes in evidence. So you sometimes get the effects beforehand and start fading out before it's completely over.

June 19th? Thanks! I'm making a note of that. VERY good to know!

:toast:

BTW - I've also been advised multiple times along these lines that if you've already started some project or undertaking BEFORE Mercury Retrograde formally begins, you're okay. The trick is making sure you GET IT STARTED BEFOREHAND, to avoid any adverse impacts that would be in play if you began something in the thick of it.

Merc retro is a good time for completed things started up. Astrologer friends have told me for months that as we approached June, HRC was going into a rough time that will continue through the summer. Same for McBush. His free ride may be over. I'll be watching for him to have a long 'hot' summer.

Yeah, friends of mine call it "old business" time - when Mercury goes retrograde that's the time to take care of old business, clean out the closets, tie up loose ends, etc.

I HOPE to God that mcsame's free ride is over. Despite what many people believe, he has NOT been thoroughly vetted. And he's showing some of the same sneaky-ass manipulative tendencies that we've suffered through with bush - as far as secrecy and media manipulation (waiting til the eve of the long holiday weekend to release his medical records and then only allowing a select few reporters three hours without cameras or copying).

Apparently on election night 2000 merc was retrograde and you saw the mess that became. So fast forward to election night 2008 and there is return of that to the exact degree. It means what was taken (stolen) from you is returned. Which means either Gore (which is why I thought he had a shot) or the party.

As to McSame. I am suspicious of that 3 hour release. A friend's daughter who works with the elderly, in particular, stroke victims, but isn't into politics saw him on tv at an event. Her immediate comment was that he's had some level of stroke at some point.

round of election-stealing. GAWD...

And as for the limited access to the medical records - it just stands to reason that something must be fishy in there. Otherwise why would he be so stingey about coming out with it all? Just LAY THE BOOKS WIDE OPEN, john, and let anybody have at 'em. What is it that you don't want us to know? If you expect us to willingly live with you for four years, you better cough it all up now, and freely, so we know what we're getting into. But then again, not doing so IS the republi-CON way, isn't it? Dishonesty at its most basic.

OUT WITH IT ALL! NOTHING held back. NO strings attached. NO limitations. NO fine print.

Thank you.
