We will get back to regularly scheduled programming next week. I just need to say one more thing about this historic election. Growing up, everyone told me that I could be anything I wanted to be. I could be a doctor, lawyer, scientist or scholar. However, nobody told me that I could be President. It’s [...]
I’m still speechless.
For those of you that are heading to DC or live in the city, I’ve created my official Couch Sessions Approved Inauguration Guide of parties that will be going down this weekend. If you’re going to be in town, don’t hesitate to hit me up at articleonline [at] gmail.com or at twitter.com/couchsessions. ALL INAUGURATION 2009 [...]
I know it might be old news to some of y’all, but these pictures from Obama’s victory party on U Street need to be seen. Much thanks to Couch Sessions reader Madeline for the photos!
I love my city right now… 11th and U (photo via DCist) 14th and U Apparently the party went on until about 4 AM. At the site of the 1968 riots. Amazing.
Sorry, but I can give a damn when I see rappers and entertainers cutting videos for Obama. I’m sure its there little way of contributing to the cause, but people on the ground are wondering….could we do more? Take Puffy. Even though the man tried with the Vote or Die campaign in 2004, the dude [...]
Its no surprise that the mainstream media hasn’t covered the Obama rally in St. Louis on Saturday, which drew over 100,000 people. They’re still too busy trying to talk to “Joe the Plumber.” But while the media tries to chase some tax cheat unlicensed plumber from Ohio, Obama is making history. Senator Obama raised $150 [...]
Even though Obama is ahead in the national polls by double digits, the ignorance and racism that has permeated through this campaign won’t go away. In fact, once people realize that we are just weeks away from having the first Black president, it will get worse. McCain’s campaign, as a sign of desperation, has been [...]
4 years ago I was in Boston at the DNC Convention, working my ass off for Kerry. We all know how that turned out. After that point, I swore to myself I would never get into politics again. But damn, how can you not get excited about Obama? If you are as upset about the [...]
Seriously people, put down your Lil’ Wanye CDs and shell toes and watch history in the making. My sister called me last night almost in tears after this speech and I see why. Obama ’08.
I’m still pessimistic as hell for Obama and his chances. Call me a hater if you will, but I never thought America would vote for a dude named Obama (with a middle name of Hussein). These are the people who voted for Bush twice and can’t find Iraq on a map. I’m slowly starting to [...]
So I finally figured out why Obama is losing the working-class White vote… This is bad. Decent track (flipping Ice Cube’s “Good Day”, but this video puts the McCain girls to shame. Seriously, the awfulness of this thing is tempting me to vote for McCain. (from Brandon at URB) Seriously, if you’re in North Carolina [...]
