Dear President-Elect Obama,

Finally! I feel a tremendous amount of pride and joy in my country. I'm 28 years old and I didn't think that I would every feel this way. Tears streamed down my face during your acceptance speech and I know that all across the globe people were experiencing the same feeling. I believe that you will lead us in a more safe and secure direction. I do not think that you can solve everything nor do I expect you to. Yet I trust in you to work on our behalf, the workers, the unemployed, the students those who are fighting for a place in this society. We are the ones who have elected you. I doubted democracy before today. I didn't think it was working. Please continue to bolster our faith in the ideals this country has to offer.

My concerns are vast but please take note of the following five of my top issues. First, I want the money to be removed from politics. That would mean giving equal access to the public airwaves to all candidates. Also, I would like relief in my student loan rates or opportunities to serve my country in a non violent way in exchange for real debt relief. I want more regulation of business. We have been shown what happens because of deregulation as our economy falls and our environment worsens. I want you to proceed as quickly as possible in withdrawing forces from Iraq. Finally, I want you to consider campaigning for the right for gays to marry. I do understand that it could be detrimental towards a second run for the White House but we should not be considered political pawns but real people who need real change.

Please stay safe. I'm looking forward to encouraging words from you and Michele when our nation needs it. We need it! You have a beautiful family and have an amazing opportunity to be the role model this country desperately is looking for.

Best wishes,



Libertad


I got this message on his website when I submitted it.

We're receiving a large number of messages since the end of the campaign, and we ask for your patience as we try to respond to everyone.
Thank you again for your message.

Wish he could personally read my message but I don't know if he will have the time to read so many letters. I never thought of writing Bush because I knew he didn't care about me.

Servitude is my speciality (N. Buffalo)

Female, 21 y/o and I Love to wash dishes. I love to scrub floors, I love to vacuum. I'm pretty sure there isn't too much I don't like to do as long as it has nothing to do with pets, bathrooms and cleaning your room. That's your space.. you can do that yourself.

Here's what I "envision":
Me, standing and leaning over your sink scrubbing a filthy dish, trying my darndest to not get my shirt wet while you are there taunting me... teasing me, trying to get me to get my shirt wet. Mind you, I was ordered to not get wet or else I'd be punished. A certain amount of time to get the dishes done before I'm to start out on my next task. Also, a Dominant figure would be with me, making sure I get my tasks done, both of you can relish on the fact that I would be trying so hard to please you both, yet failing at the timing factor since I am a perfectionist. He would show you how to handle me, since I am not easy to be handled. He'd come up behind me, hold his switchblade near me, making goosebumps form on my skin, me scrubbing faster and then.. **RIP** he tears off my shirt. Leaving me there, starting to turn red all over from the embarassment, pulling my hair, growling into my ear to hurry, my tasks are piling up and my punishment is getting greater. A spanking on my rump and a pinch on the small of my back before he walks away.

And what, would this cost, you ask?

Well, I'd say per hour, but that hardly seems fair.
I'd say a quote would be sent out to you, after showing me what kind of mess I'd be dealing with. That seems fair.
As far as travelling expenses, that would be included in the cost.

Tonawanda, Kenmore, Buffalo (certain areas), N. Buffalo, Cheektowaga (certain areas), Williamsville. Mainly these cities/towns. Anything bordering, may be taken into consideration.
    
    

I had a great time at the party. Thanks for hosting it (e:pmt)! Sorry for passing out on your couch. I loved the tasty treats that (e:hodown) made, especially those stuffed figs. Everybody had really great costumes this year. I was happy to get to wear those pants that used to be my favorite but now have paint on them. Being Joey the plumber was way too much fun.

(e:mike) looked like this on the first flight heading towards Atlanta. It was my first time flying with him and it was also my worst flight. It was the closest thing to turbulence I have felt. Definitely had my stomach drop and it sounded like the plane was struggling a lot.



This is when he fell in love with Lenny. It was the cutest thing.



Here he is with PupperZ.



Looking hot in Florida.



Mike with my Mom.



Me and my M.O.M.



Mike and me.



Lenny



PupperZ



My Mom about to hose down (e:mike) after he stepped in poo.

NPR is looking for pictures of people dressed as politicians and or politcally current people. Maybe there will be some political costumes at the party?
