  • THAT IS BRILLIANT!

    :-D

  • WANTS

  • Id like to have one

    but I really fear Obama might blow as a president.

    Even if he is the best option.

    • yeeah

      i've just seen them and whilst i believe Obama may be awesome i've starting to find things i don't agree with himn on...

      • Mr November

        he won't fuck us over! Cool :)

      • To be honest I think everyone's gonna be pretty disappointed.

        Obama's not a bad candidate for the Presidency but he's basically a moderate centrist politician and I just can't see him revolutionising politics or changing the world in the way people seem to want him to.

        • don't piss on people's parade.

          the initial wave of excitement is far more important than anything he actually does after.

        • That's just the latest spin

          playing off of some recent pandering he's had to do to conservative interest groups- wait till he gets in there and shows how really left of center he is - I hope.

          • I don't know

            From what I've read of his policies they're pretty mainstream (and interestingly aren't all that far apart from McCain's on a fair few subjects)

  • GET OUT OF MY HEAD

    I was just walking back from the shop thinking of this t-shirt. "When i get back i'm buying one, definitely buying one, no doubt, then i'm gonna post something on DiS about it". You've left me deflated.

  • Does anybody believe this bullshit?

    What possible difference is he going to make. None at all.

    • Agreed

      I love the National, but I'm not wanting a tshirt with political endorsements on, however witty. Same shit different hat.

    • Shit, why don't we just leave Bush in there then

      It has to make a difference. Time to clean the white house- time to fumigate!

  • Hideous

    really

  • my friend has since pointed out to me

    that the "i'm the new blue blood / i'm the great white hope" lyrics are HILARIOUS in this context.

    • i was thinking that

      but in many ways he is the great white hope, well, the hope of everyone really. I think he'll give everything the kick up the arse it needs. I like him and am genuinely excited at the prospect of him becoming president, so much so that you wouldn't believe.

  • they're doing dates with Efterklang

    That would be something.

    • the national + efterklang?

      that sounds awesome... link for details?

  • Please let's not turn this into some half-baked political debate,

    eh, guys?

  • I think it's great, I'd like to see more of that

    Most celebs in politics do more harm than good cause usually they are terrible spokespeople without a script but musicians have experience on stage in front of mobs- great for politics.

    Risky business though getting involved in politics. In this case though we can't take chances on the status quo staying juiced in. Gotta make a big change- hopefully it will start a trend.

  • well i think it's great, so fuck you all

    great band
    Obama
    all for a good cause
    why not?
    fuck you.
