Good Bad

Since everyone is doing reviews of the past year I will to. Just do what I think is the good and the bad of the year.

Bad:
The Media. The horrible coverage they gave to Obama and the favorable coverage they gave to McCain despite the facts. Continuing to bring up Ayers which wasn't an issue Rev. Wright which wasn't an issue but McCain who had ties to a terrorist and hateful preachers like John Hagee went unreported.

George Bush Dick Cheney. I lump them together cause they have done nothing but destroy America. We are in the disaster we are in financially because of them we are billions of dollars in debt because of them we are in a was tted war in Iraq because of them and their lies. They are responsible for what's going on now and should be blamed properly and as I said I hope Obama has the courage to put them on trial for War Crimes.

John McCain. What a horrible campaign. While Obama was sticking with the issues more of the same McCain did nothing but attack and smear like the typical Republican he is. It was pathetic and horrible. And the fact he did nothing to discourage the people who said kill him and he's a terrorist at his rallies shows how disgusting he is. We can also bring up what a snob he is and he is so out of touch he didn't know how many houses he owns. It was horrible.

California. Prop 8. For a state that is considered by many to be liberal we sure didn't show it. The fact that so many people fell for the church's bullying and fear based ads without realizing what they were really doing was saying that it's ok to descriminate against gay and lesbian people show that people really don't know what they are doing.

Organized Religion. For the reason above. The fact is the church is responsible for Prop 8 and the scare tactics they used fooled the people. They are to blame for the reprecussions. The fact also is there are preachers who are telling the parishners to repent for voting for Obama is disgusting as well.

Sarah Palin. John McCain killed any chance he had to win by picking her. She was horrible. She had no experience (which was an argument McCain used against Obama) she more importantly had no clue. McCain could have picked so many more stronger, experienced Republican women but chose her. She was in way over her head and it showed.

Hillary Clinton during the primaries. She was as bad as McCain during the primaries she deserved to lose. Glad she came around.

The Republican Party. They deserved exactly what they got on election day. The smears won't work anymore.

Toby Keith. His whining about the Country Awards just pissed me off.

Now the good:

The American People. They refused to give into the fear-based ads the Republicans gave us. They accepted Obama and the issues instead of smears and attacks. Congrats to the people they deserved it.

Barack Obama. He ran a great campaign he didn't get into the character attacks even though there was more then enough actual facts that he could have gone.

Hillary and Bill Clinton. After realizing they lost the primaries they campaigned hard for Obama and helped Obama become President.

Tina Fey and Saturday Night Live. Got the ratings up and made the show interesting again. Fey was more like Palin then Palin. And Amy Proeler as Hillary Clinton was equally good.

David Letterman. When McCain cancelled on him and did another interview instead it pissed Letterman off and might have cost McCain more votes.

If you would like to add or subtract from this let me know.
