I was reading the letters to the editor today in the Philadelphia Enquirer. My favorite part of the paper really. I came across an anti health care reform letter. It was classic boilerplate GOP talking points through and through. It got me curious enough to look the guy up.

This morning I picked up my Inquirer and started to read over my morning coffee. This is my paper and I read it every day despite its growing rightward slant. I passed up the article in the Arts and Entertainment section that was discussing the wonderful talent that is Glen Beck, and moved on to the currents section. That is where I found, for the second day in a row, a response to the letter writing campaign recently innitiated by Dkos readers, regarding the Inquirers hiring of John Yoo.

I have written about this before, but every time I see John Yoo's column (yes believe it or not this war criminal is allowed a column in the Philadelphia Inquirer) i just lose it. I cant fathom how anyone in their right mind would consider this persons opinion on Obama valid.

More after the jump

The Inquirer here in Philly ran two articles of interest in this morning paper. Whenever the Enquirer has John Yoo write anything in the paper it raises my ire, and a letter to the editor is usually eminent. I was already composing the letter in my mind when I saw a second article that made me almost laugh out loud.

That story after the jump.

I would liek to bring your attention to a great set of new ads that I am hoping to see on the air soon. These ads are the perfect response to some of the recent attacks coming from the McCain Campaign. Lee Hirsch, talented filmmaker behind such films as AMANDALA!, has created a slate of Obama commercials based on local voices in swing states.

These are great ads and very effective. But they are not on the air yet. A lot of effort has gone into these ads. With your help they can be playing in swing states around the country.

Watch the ads after the jump...

In 2000 Kathleen Harris was the Secretary of the State in Florida. She was also the co-chair of George W. Bush's Florida election campaign.

In 2004 Ken Blackwell was the Secretary of the state in Ohio, as well as Chief Elections Official in Ohio.

This year in Colorado, a state which will play an important role in this years election, Mike Coffman is playing a dubious role in the states election process.

I would like to think that we have learned from the mistakes of past elections. I would like to think that there will be lawyers to challenge voters being disenfranchised and that there will be the same number of voting machines in Democratic and Republican districts. I would like that. I have confidence in Obama's ground game and I hope he is aware of the may problems that may face voters on election day. But this time hope is not enough. We need to be prepared. The party that brought us disenfranchisement for the last 2 presidential elections, who purged thousands of voters in Florida and then again in Ohio, the party that brought us war, torture, rendition and spying, this party is not going to suddenly decide, in this pivotal election, to play by the rules.

We need to be prepared.

Obama this morning threw down the gauntlet on McCain. He called McCain out for his lack of leadership on the current economic crisis. he skewers McCain with his own words.

He is on fire!

Palin once again channels the Bush administration in another attempt to thwart justice.

Sept. 11 (Bloomberg) -- A top law enforcement official in Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's administration is considering steps to block a legislative probe into allegations she improperly fired the state's No. 1 police official.

The legislature's report on the conduct of Republican vice presidential nominee Palin may be released next month, just weeks before the presidential election.

This all sounds very familiar to many of us. The same policies we have seen for the last eight years.
