Read the passage again :

GLOUCESTER:
Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this sun of York;
And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.
Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths;
Our bruised arms hung up for monuments;
Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings,
Our dreadful marches to delightful measures.
Grim-visaged war hath smooth'd his wrinkled front;
And now, instead of mounting barded steeds
To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,
He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber
To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks,
Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass;
I, that am rudely stamp'd, and want love's majesty
To strut before a wanton ambling nymph;
I, that am curtail'd of this fair proportion,
Cheated of feature by dissembling nature,
Deformed, unfinish'd, sent before my time
Into this breathing world, scarce half made up,
And that so lamely and unfashionable
That dogs bark at me as I halt by them;
Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace,
Have no delight to pass away the time,
Unless to spy my shadow in the sun
And descant on mine own deformity:
And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover,
To entertain these fair well-spoken days,
I am determined to prove a villain
And hate the idle pleasures of these days.
Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous,
By drunken prophecies, libels and dreams,
To set my brother Clarence and the king
In deadly hate the one against the other:
And if King Edward be as true and just
As I am subtle, false and treacherous,
This day should Clarence closely be mew'd up,
About a prophecy, which says that 'G'
Of Edward's heirs the murderer shall be.
Dive, thoughts, down to my soul: here
Clarence comes.

What is Richard determined to do ?

 pour vendredi  !

rions un peu avant la rentrée….

Dans cet extrait de débat politique diffusé mardi soir aux Etats Unis, le journaliste demande à un supporter de Barack Obama de nommer au moins une loi qu’aurait initiée son candidat préféré.

Citer une des lois initiées par Barack Obama au Sénat? Kirk Watson est sénateur démocrate du Texas… et partisan d’Obama mais il en est incapable ! Sur la chaîne MSNBC, quand un journaliste lui a demandé de nommer ne serait-ce qu’un élément du bilan législatif du sénateur de l’Illinois, regardez : il n’a pas su quoi dire !!!

Visionnez cet extrait jusqu’au bout car le deuxième journaliste prend un peu la défense du Sénateur en retournant la question au premier journaliste ( question à laquelle il ne saura pas non plus répondre ) : «Pouvez-vous nommer une loi du Sénat ces sept dernières années ?»

On peut rire de cet extrait et penser, comme ses adversaires, que Obama n’a pas de bilan , mais ici à quoi sert véritablement de piéger le sénateur Watson ? Est-ce de la politique ou du spectacle ? Pendant ce temps là Hillary Clinton s’est appuyée sur les explications embarrassées de Watson pour rappeler une nouvelle fois qu’elle seule était qualifiée pour le job !

DANS CE PAYS LES PUBLICITES ET LES CLIPS SONT AUTORISES POUR SOUTENIR UN OU UNE CANDIDATE . VOICI UN CLIP CHANTE PAR DES CELEBRITES QUE VOUS RECONNAITREZ PEUT ETRE . ICI IL S’AGIT DE SOUTENIR BARACK OBAMA . REPEREZ LE SLOGAN ( c’est facile !) LES PAROLES ET LE NOM DES CELEBRITES SE TROUVENT CHEZ LES 3°1 , QUELQUE PART SUR CE SITE !

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.

Yes we can.

It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.

Yes we can.

It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.

Yes we can.

It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.

Yes we can to justice and equality.

Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.

Yes we can heal this nation.

Yes we can repair this world.

Yes we can.

We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics…they will only grow louder and more dissonant ……….. We’ve been asked to pause for a reality check. We’ve been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.

Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea –

Yes. We. Can.
