  Democrats are touting their upcoming national convention as the "greenest" one yet.   They've ordered special organic meals, will use bio-diesel buses and even have special parking lots for hybrid cars.

  According to The Washington Post, Barack Obama is now president; so we can all go home.   Actual headline: President Obama Continues Hectic Victory Tour.   Yes, I know it's tongue-in-cheek.    

  John McCain apparently is set to show up in Sturgis, site of one of the biggest annual motorcycle gatherings in the country.   Wonder if he'll be dressing the part?

  According to People magazine's interview with the Obama's, their kids don't get Christmas or birthday presents.

  We'll just file this under strange last words to say before you die by lethal injection for murder.   Mississippi put to death Dale Leo Bishop for his role in the murder of another man. Part of his comments before final sentencing are below:

  Well, that didn't take long.   Only a few days after unveiling a new "seal," the Obama campaign has quietly put it away for good. Probably because it looked about as close to the existing presidential seal as possible.
