CBN:

The Obama Campaign will not be using the name, "Joshua Generation" after all. In their attempt to reach out to younger faith voters, that WAS going to be the name for the effort. But the Home School Legal Defense Association contacted the Obama campaign explaining that they have the rights to that name. The Obama campaign decided not to fight it.

The Brody File first told you about this last month. Read my blog here. Read more below from the Home School Legal Defense Association.

"Decided not to fight it"? Rights are rights...they'd be stupid if they DID try to fight it! It wasn't the best title anyway, so I think it's for the best.

A few years from now, you will need to be licensed to make a full sentence without infringing on copyrighted language.

Rev Obama, after bowling unsuccessfully, said he would tear out the bowling alley in the White House.

I think he should just build his own mega arena in the rose garden for all the big sermons he has to give us and wear long robes and stand behind a pulpit or sit on a throne.

I think he only really understands power as his ancesters on his father's side and would do quite well being King of Kenya. The President of the US? This is all very embarrassing.

I tell my co-workers - most Democrats are not like this. He scammed the primary election and took over the party. And they say - yes, we know. We saw that too. Why is this still happening?

Step down from the podium Obama. You have become dangerous.

In the next few years, one will have to be licensed in order to complete a full sentence.

A little something for all those hyped about the government awarding grants to faith-based organizations to conduct secular initiatives:

Wow.

I would think they would be honored and allow the campaign to use it.

HEE HEE HEE

MCDOODOO looks like and smiles like a man that wants to follow satan.

I have my own feelings about the way MCDOODOO worships war as a form of diplomacy.

Remember to vote all.

:-)

can we just quit with the stupid logos and fancy names and not spend the money on that crap? is there some reason that we can't just help the poor, educate our children, and do the decent thing without some corporate-type logo or saying attached to it?

Ah man, I really liked that name. Too bad. Hopefully they'll come up with a similarly effective name.
