4. Go To Blockbuster or the RedBox or NetFlix Tonight And Watch The Movie.........
Remember The Titans.

Or better yet - replay the rally at the Denver Stadium after he won the nomination and listen to the music.

Be inspired!!!!!!!

5. Best line in this thread.
When I think, "Remember the Titans" I think about that QB who was murdered by his angry mistress, who then shot herself.

Hardly an uplifting scenario....

8. Cryptic vanity posts catch that kind of shit.
There's something to be said for stating one's case clearly and succinctly.

And the only info Obama is going to get in the WH is coming from his advisers and his family, not some sous chef whispering "Tell him to Remember the Titans" to the waiter who brings the guy his grilled cheese or his burger for lunch.

Silliness.

11. I Guess I'm Naive Enough To Believe That Someone Other Than Chefs In The WH......
check in on DU to gauge the tenor of their most loyal constituency.

And if you remember the Denver Stadium rally after the nomination at the Dem Convention - the music that was played as the now President & Vice President and their families came out to meet the people - it was the theme music from "Remember the Titans" movie. I urge you to watch the movie to hopefully get an inkling of what I'm eluding to in my post. I have to think that the choice of that music was a way to deliver a subliminal message to the electorate.

Given the tough week that President Obama has just come off from - with the delay in any health care reform; the dissension he has to deal with not only from the Repugs but in his own party as well; the Crowley/Gates matter; and the MSM piling on and doing everything in their power to discredit him - I just thought reminding him of these three simple words might spur him on and give him a boost.

I don't know if there is a message in you DU name (MADem)- but being MAD and non-supportive and negative is not a way we're going to get anywhere.

Really - go and rent the movie this weekend - then come back Monday to comment further.

12. Rahm Emmanuel is not poring over DU any more than he's poring over FR.
Those people have real work to do.

It's just a lame post. "Remember the Titans!" You might as well say "Remember Bruce Lee!" I prefer the music from the film DRAGON, myself, for an inspirational soundtrack. And the last TITAN in the news took several bullets while sleeping in the bed with his girlfriend, about whom his wife and children, we assume, were unaware, who then shot her crazyass self. I think we're better off not talking about things TITAN in the near term.

I hope your alluding, too, because 'eluding' is what one tries to do to the authorities when one has broken the law.

I am a MAssachusetts DEMocrat, that's the meaning in my name. I'm not the only one here who does the STATE/Dem schtick.

I'm very supportive of Obama, I just don't think much of this kind of cryptic silliness. The reason you got "The Eagle Flies at Midnight" in response to your post is because that made about as much sense.

13. I'm Sorry I Offended You - I'll Just Crawl Back In My Hole And Sulk & Whine.......
like most of the posters here on DU - that nothing has changed and they're all the same and just let the MSM, the RW talking heads and the minority party have their way with me. Thanks for setting me straight. Maybe we'll have somebody like Sarah Palin or better yet Jeb Bush come and save us. No more 'cryptic silliness' from me. No. I'll just bend over and complain like most everyone else. We're screwed. Thanks for setting me straight. Oh - I repeated that - sorry - you'll probably point that out - how silly of me to correct myself before you had a chance to.

14. Please don't extrapolate absurdly. Or pout. You floated a concept, and it thudded
to the ground in ignominious fashion. I'm not the only one who observed it, either, you know.

Just because I, and others, do not find your vague allusion either poignant or meaningful does not mean that we're cheerleaders for "the MSM" or the "RW talking heads" or anything of that sort. For you to say so is a bit "pathetique," to be blunt.

All we're saying is that your exhortation comes across as a bit lame.

This is the internet. A thick skin is a fine thing, if you don't have one, you might want to grow one. The world will not end for you, unless you want it to, over this hit and miss. But suggesting that people who don't jump on your Titan Bandwagon are somehow Enemies of Democracy and making wildass commentary about a dire future that includes Jeb and Sarah is just .... silly. Really silly.

And no, you did NOT "offend" me at all. Silliness is not offensive, it just is what it is.

So don't trouble yourself on that score, not that I thought you actually were!

I like Obama and I want him to do well. I give him good marks thus far. Titans or no Titans.

:hi:

6. Remember the Titans
was one of my all time favorite movies. I think it would be great to make it a requirement for students. Maybe open up some dialogue and minds.

18. Ok, sorry but
I am hard pressed to imagine anyone who works in the WH reading DU. Sure, there are some things of interest, even value, but one needs to search for them in among a lot of fluff, hysteria and the like.

Sorry, had a wet blanket laying around and I thought I'd throw it on your fantasy. ;-)
