But believe your lyin eyes.
LATimes called it a "one-fingered salute!"
Unity!
I can tell you that the credibility of the L.A. times in this city has been in serious question for a couple of years now. But let's say that's a credible source, can you not see that other finger? Is it possible that people are cheering about what he said and not his gesture? At some point you have stop manufacturing controversies and deal with issues. This is life-and-death. People will die from the wars that McCain wants to fight and the only serious opponent that he is going to have is Barack Obama. So, you can scour the internet for false rumors or you can join our effort to end this massive failure of the Bush administration. It's up to you.
is indeed life-and-death. I am very worried about how Obama acts under pressure.
it 'proves' he had two fingers (you do see two fingers there) you also see the whole hall react because they SAW one finger.
How slick.
I think that Obama has remembered the tricks he probably learned in high school.. and the rhetorical techniques to look 'cool' to his youngish preferred audience.
But.... is it Presidential?
NO!
the words he used? I know I liked that speech. I liked how he ridiculed the media for focusing on the inane, while dismissing the important issues. People have cheered at his events without any gestures. Possibly people, are listening to him and agreeing with him? Something like 17 million people.
