So I took out my credit card and did some spending at lunch today...
1st I spent $50 on the Minnesota Senate Race. I hope Al Franken puts his money to good use because I want to see his standup routine on the floor of the US Senate for the next 6 years.

My next stop was the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee. I spent another $50 because I want any bills that Al Franken might write to get passed by the Senate without threat of a Republican filibuster.

The final stop on my mad shopping spree was the Obama store.

Where I purchased this nice shirt for $20:


And this nice $5 refrigerator magnet:


And I kicked in an extra $10 for the campaign.

What do you think of my mad shopping spree? Has anyone else felt this mad urge to spend money like this?

:D

5. I got out my credit card and donated $25 this am after finding my Obama/Biden sign missing
Someone decided to *clean up* some of the yards in my neighborhood last night. All the Obama/Biden signs were gone this morning.

The *other* signs are still there.

Wonder why they didn't want to *help* those neighbors clean up their yards?
