Yeah, I rip on Barry a lot, mainly because I think evidence currently available indicates he's either an classic unprincipled Chicago machine win-at-all-costs politician, or a truly dangerous cult-of-personality hardcore leftist (I vacillate between those two positions).  But if he'd pull his leftie head out of his butt and say things like this more often, I might lighten up a bit (quote from the Kansas City Star):

"If we're serious about reclaiming that dream, we have to do more in our own lives, our own families and our own communities," Obama said. "That starts with providing the guidance our children need, turning off the TV and putting away the video games; attending those parent-teacher conferences, helping our children with their homework and setting a good example."

He added: "I know some say I've been too tough on folks about this responsibility stuff. But I'm not going to stop talking about it. Because I believe that in the end, it doesn't matter how much money we invest in our communities, or how many 10-point plans we propose, or how many government programs we launch - none of it will make any difference if we don't seize more responsibility in our own lives."

Even I could vote for a Chicago pol who sounds this way often enough.  But it's still McCain, or even Barr, before I'd go for Obi-Wan right now.
