1. Yep, I just saw that and I was interested to note that Tweety was..
taling about how much his kids like Obama.... This is awesome, and I would love to see the Senator take him up on this.... The Senator is a great spokesman IMO

2. A little bit of racism there with that suggestion from him...
...but I'm sure he doesn't see it that way. The inference being that he would visit an Historically Black College or University, (HBCU). Why hasn't he until now?

3. Good point, I didn't pick up on that... But he did say the Obama..
Is truly African/American because his mother was an American and his father was literally from Africa...

4. A collage tour? How lovely!
Edited on Mon Feb-19-07 08:07 PM by rocknation
But I don't see how Obama could do it now, what with his presidental bid and all. At any rate, I hope it goes without saying that Tweety MUST include the incomparable collage artist Romare Bearden on the tour!

5. The Rubber Cement Lobby needs to be stopped!
I've used rubber cement on collage work as well as Elmer's Glue in the past. It's very interesting...collages. Selecting clips, assembling them into an arrangement and trying to find a message for the entire piece can be a challenge.

I'd buy an Obama collage if Tweety's not involved in it. He would be too bossy, telling you to put this piece somewhere where you didn't feel appropriate.

6. Matthews sure loves Obama ....
don't get me wrong- I'm glad to see my guy getting some love from the press. But he almost crossed the line of journalistic objectivity on his show tonight when he interviewed Obama's campaign manager Davis Axlerod.

Matthews said something like "my kids love Obama- he brings out something in the youth of America- and I'll be honest- in me as well." I almost expected him to pick up an "Obama in 08" sign and start waving it.

7. But what about Rudy, Tweets? Didn't you say he was a "magic" kind of guy?
Edited on Mon Feb-19-07 08:42 PM by rocknation
Or are you playing "Any Port In A Political Storm" again?

8. Tweety loves him today...but it's Rudy, tomorrow and the day after McCain
and he might even get to Romney and Gingrich and Hillary somewhere along the way. Tweety, Twist in the Wind.... He also likes to "measure codpieces" so Obama better watch out....:scared:

10. Excellent!
I love objectivity, but... Obama is the man and everyday more and more people are starting to realize it. :)
