Subject [OT] Obama will get us to do things even our momma's can't

Put this under "music lifestyle". I've been slow to the party, and still
have serious concerns, but I'm starting to really like this guy!

 From an MTV interview published on Nov 3:

"Here is my attitude," said Obama. "I think people passing a law against
people wearing sagging pants is a waste of time. We should be focused on
creating jobs, improving our schools, health care, dealing with the war in
Iraq, and anybody, any public official, that is worrying about sagging pants
probably needs to spend some time focusing on real problems out there."

"Having said that," he added, "brothers should pull up their pants. You are
walking by your mother, your grandmother, your underwear is showing. What's
wrong with that? Come on. There are some issues that we face, that you don't
have to pass a law, but that doesn't mean folks can't have some sense and some
respect for other people and, you know, some people might not want to see your
underwear -- I'm one of them."
