1. Thank you...
... and I'm still curious how many days it takes her to get her IWR stance right?

How many days did she spend in the Senate, before taking to the floor and giving the green light to Bush?

Can we afford to wait that many days for her to get her OTJT?

6. He called out the neocons before we knew what a neocon was
"What I am opposed to is the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz and other armchair, weekend warriors in this administration to shove their own ideological agendas down our throats, irrespective of the costs in lives lost and in hardships borne."

Talk about being right on day one.

11. His Oct 2002 speech
Considering what the rest of the Democrats were saying at the time, this speech is actually astounding. And even though he gave Kerry/Edwards cover in 2004, he has spoken against the mindset and ideology all along.

15. Glad to know Obama believes he's always right.
Especially as he's said he feels "called by God" to be the President.
