Barack Obama keeps e-mailing me
Joe Biden keeps popping up in my in-box too. And today, I got this from Michelle Obama:
"My mom, the girls, and I left home in Chicago and got to Denver yesterday. What a beautiful city! The convention started this morning, and everyone here is getting ready for the big week. All the work you've done is at the heart of what's happening here, and our team filmed a short video to give you a look behind the scenes at the convention center.
Not long after I got that, Barack was back:
"I am so lucky to be married to the woman who delivered that speech last night. Michelle was electrifying, inspiring, and absolutely magnificent. I get a lot of credit for the speech I gave at the 2004 convention -- but I think she may have me beat. You have to see it to believe it. And make sure to forward this email to your friends and family -- they'll want to see it, too. You really don't want to miss this. And I'm not just saying that because she's my wife -- I truly believe it was the best speech of the campaign so far."
The best speech of the entire campaign so far? Now that's quite a claim. Maybe Michelle should be running for president.
This will teach me to sign up for the 3 a.m. vice-presidential email alert. I could always un-subscribe, but then I might miss out on Michelle's path to the White House.

You can't have it both ways,
if people want to protest gay parades in San Diego or Riga, they can't be put in 'free speech cages' either.
Amnesty has diffreent standards for different people (as we are only too aware of in Belfast).
