The town isn't named for Obama. Obama means “little beach” in Japanese. The town has been around since 1951.

Yeah, it's a no-shytter.

This would be where I start looking for towns named McCain, but….oh well.

I think it's perfectly ok to saturate our culture with Barack Obama' images, name, etc. We ain't playing Casper the Ghost here.

Black folk have lived with images of everyone else's in histrory. Hell, let's name an airport after him too. If Ted Stevens can have one, so can Barack .Obama

What is even a more terrible thought …. GWbush on a carrier the 43rd failure….he needs to keep his “(NON) Mission Accomplished” ass away from any more carriers…

I kinda liked Bristol for a girl, but Track and Trig – those names are kinda whack.

He will grow up, divorce his parents like Drew Barrymore did in "Irreconcilable Differences" and legally change his name to something THAT MAKES SENSE.

I think the Hollywood crowd try to outdo themselves with naming their offspring; in their quest to be unique, they have become downright foolish, hanging these names on these poor children and not realizing their children have to answer to that foolishness.

Okay, RANT OVER.

Co-sign. Michelle, you seem like you're really sincere and caring about those around you and it's a responsibility you take very seriously. But sometimes those very qualities can work against you and mess with your head...I know because I tend to take things to heart and every once in a while it can be paralyzing because there's too many dilemmas I have to wrestle with and I worry about making the wrong decision (I really hope that makes sense).

When that happens I just shut down all the outside noise(aka whatever is keeping you up nights), and just focus on the day to day real life. Just stepping back and putting blinders on for a minute will help you regain perspective. The political circus, and all the shows and blogs that go with it will still be here when you get back.

Hopefully I'm coherent here and didn't ramble too much. Take care of yourself Michelle.

I had to spend three weeks living at the Herdon, Va Embassy Suites for work and I was so excited that they had grits on the breakfast bar. The bad thing was only one of the cooks knew how to make them right (or how I like them) and half the time they were soupy. I hate soupy grits.
