Man, it's amazing what you miss in a few days time. We'll start with a short recap of Thursday's Obamalamadingdong speech. You wouldn't believe how many people have walked up to me and said "That man said everything I wanted to hear." The funny thing is, most people also wondered what he was going to do to accomplish these tasks. Unless every doctor is going to work for free, someone has to pay for "free" health care. I've heard that Canadians come to America for health care. Where will we go when we have the same problem. And I'm pretty sure you can guess where I stand on "wealth Distribution" (my fingers feel dirty just for typing that.) All in all, it was empty fluff that polluted my favorite team's stadium. Moving On!
Holy Smokes, that Sarah Palin is a fireball, isn't she?! She's got a hard anti-abortion stance, she fights to stop corruption in the government (she turned down congress' infamous "bridge to nowhere") and she hunts moose regularly. If she isn't the hardline conservative McCain needed, I don't know who is. I have yet to hear anyone say anything bad about her, other than her lack of experience. Listen up folks: she has more executive experience then any of the presidential nominees, and has more on-the-job time then Obama. He's been campaigning most of his time in office! That really doesn't help his case to complain about McCain's argument of Obama's lack of experience (did that statement make sense?). All in all, she's an excellent pick.
Ah, the RNC. It'll be like the shower you get when you come home from Kamp. I feel a little dirty about forcing myself to watch the DNC all last week. Hopefully this will be worth the wait. One tiny little problem: Gustav. This little pain has caused a couple thousand people to evacuate, a rearrangement in the events at the RNC, and Bush and Cheney will not be able to attend because they're gonna watch this puppy like a hawk. It would appear that Bush has learned from his "mistake" (the quotes are because I honestly feel it's not his fault: People should probably learn to get out of the path of a 175 mph act of God headed towards their houses. That fiasco falls squarly on the local governments overpaid heads). Maybe this will show that Republicans aren't all Guns-A-Blazin' and can be responsible with things like weather problems. Undecided Voters, here we come!

The DNC: How much more Anti-Conservative can they get?
All right, I'd like to start off by saying I'm fine with free speech. I'm glad these people have the ability to say what they want to say. I just get sooooooooo angry concerning what they're actually saying. Allow me to shed some light on the subject.
First off, I have never seen so many negative people in one place at once. Every one of these peoples speeches consist mostly of conservative bashing. Apparently, since the last time I went outside (which, if you know me, may have been quite awhile) the country has descended to a third world country where people have to kill each other for food, steal gas, and the richest live in cardboard boxes. And if we all wish really hard, The Great Savior Barack Obama will descend from the Heavens and give Chuck Norris a run for his money. And apparently, George W. Bush is code for the Devil. Oh, and John McCain is just the Devil in a different, very ancient form. And I'm not exagerating. This is really what these people believe. If I hear that McCain is Bush pt. 3, I might just start killing donkeys (the animals, not the dems: I'm afraid of jail).
Oh well, I guess there's a light at the end of the tunnel. John McCain will be announcing his running mate tomorrow. I hope it's early enough that it distracts from the High Lord Obama's speech. It's getting harder and harder to stay hopeful in such trying times. Who knows, maybe the world isn't changing so much that I am. Only time will tell.

Hillary's Farewell Speech: Really?
Okay, this is almost too easy. Let's start from the beginning. Did everybody see that movie at the beginning? Good Gravy, that was a proverbial self-pat-on-the-back, now wasn't it? And now, to the meat of the topic, the speech itself.
Oh Hillary, you disappoint me. All week, I heard about the party unity that was supposed to spring forth from this speech. Instead, we got a speech about all how much she accomplished. Sure, there was a little in there about Obama, but it was far more Pro-Hillary then Pro-Obama. Oh, and this leads me on to another portion of the speech: The anti-Republican part.
Now, I know this is the Democratic National Convention, but is all you have to work with the negatives of the Republican Party? The Economy is not bad: it is not falling, it is not in the same spot. It is raising. Not as fast as before (which is why it seems bad) but it's rising. And foreclosures are not Bush's fault. People make Adjustable Rate mortgages and buy houses they can't afford. then they're out of luck when the housing prices change. It's not too complicated. Oh, and why is everything about women? I mean, when is the last time you saw a white-boy college fund? Exactly.
Oh, Hillary, you had so many chances to pull off a good speech, but it wasn't even that great, even without the message intact. Perhaps we have seen the beginning of the Second Fall Of Communism. I guess we shall see.

The Saddleback Forum- SmithBoy weighs in.
Before you read this, Go here:
http://trevinwax.com/2008/08/17/obama-mccain-with-rick-warren-at-saddleback-forum-video/
If you watched the entire forum, you may or may not have noticed a few points. First off, Obama canNOT speak without a script. He stuttered over ever question, and Often didn't even give a straight answer. He also will not stand by his convictions. He says he thinks marriage is between a man and a women, then says he will not make laws supporting that feeling. He's also pro-choice for lame reasons. Now-a-days, it is EXTREMELY rare for an abortion to be necessary to save the mother's life. On top of that, he rarely gave a definitive answer. He would spin it to whichever answer would get him in the least amount of trouble.
Now for McCain. He's never been on the top of my list, but he's moved up a few notches. He usually gave short, sweet answers that were more likely then not what i agreed with. He's pro-life, feels evil should be stomped out and not negotiated with, and has a tough stand on education. He was always solid with his thoughts, and never spun the question. This man has earned a whole new level of respect from me, and if I could, I would proudly give him my vote.

A Brief Pause Before the Storm.
Well, get ready. The SmithBoy has a blog. An already opinionated 16 year-old is on the internet. Free speach, get ready. Before you read this, I should warn you. I'm a Conservative, Patriotic, Christian white-boy with a serious problem involving when to be tactful in polite company. If you're offended, you should have seen it coming.
