A Thanksgiving weekend message from Barack Obama--video
The president-elect has a few gloomy words of inspiration before you go out shopping today.
But he says we'll pull through because Americans are tough and resillient.

So the AP takes a YouTube video, drops an ad before it, and then distributes it to news outlets that pay for the service?
But they want bloggers to put AP credits (and pay associated licensing fees) for two lines of text. No wonder news orgs are dropping them left and right.

I have noticed two themes running through all of Pres-Elect Obama's statements: a reiteration of our sense of unity, and a more subtle indication that all of us are going to have to swallow some very bitter medicine in order to fix the mess the country is in. I have hope and confidence that he has the leadership skills (contrasted with former Pres Carter's "cardigan" speeches) to pull this off.
