[Obama] ...a Selma bridge for freedom's cause.

So it has been for every generation

that faced down the greatest challenges

and the most improbable odds to leave their children a world

that's better and kinder

-and more just. -[knocks]

[static]

[distorted] And so it must be for us.

-America, this is our moment. -[Zac] Dad?

-Can you help me with-- -[Roger] Be quiet.

[cheering and applause over TV]

This is our time,

our time to turn the page

on the policies of the past.

And our planet began to heal.

This was the moment,

this was the time when we came together

to remake this great nation

so that it may always reflect

our very best selves

and our highest ideals.

Thank you, Minnesota.

God bless you.

God bless the United States of America.

[Roger] I had my first job at your age.

I think it's time you took some responsibility.

So every morning,

you're gonna hoist the flag,

and every evening, you're gonna take it down.

Most importantly, respect the flag

and never let it touch the ground.

[Beth] Hi, boys!

Mom.

[Beth] Did you know Hello, Dolly!

-was filmed here in Garrison? -[Roger] Mm-hmm.

Streisand and Matthau took over the whole town.

They shot here for a month.

Hmm.

There's a local historical society.

I'm thinking about joining.

Good.

-Are you even listening? -Dolly.

Streisand. Historical.

-Hmm. -Jesus Christ.

The Democrats have nominated an African socialist

who wants to redistribute the country's wealth,

and the biggest news around here?

-Potlucks and yard sales. -Well,

it's a community paper, Roger.

-What do you expect? -News in the newspaper.

Actual news.

Annual invite from Warren, Ohio.

The Veterans' Memorial Association

-inviting you to speak. -Annual rejection.

-What? -We should accept.

Go back to Warren, show Zac where you're from.

It'd be good for him.

You haven't been back in over 20 years.

One day.

[McCain] ...the old me first,

country second Washington crowd:

-change is coming. -Fox News/Opinion Dynamics

polls are out, and they have Democrat Barack Obama out in

front of Republican John McCain by three percentage points.

[O'Reilly] I don't have a problem with Barack Obama, by the way...

All right, so where are we?

In "The Obama Chronicles" segment...

O'Reilly added .3 in the demo

-last night. Best in weeks. -[Roger] Of course he did.

What is Obama's strongest foreign policy?

He's got a new book coming out, so he's not just phoning it in.

We should be charging the fucker a commission.

[laughter]

The American people aren't stupid.

[indistinct chatter]

What does this all mean for November?

Was Obama doing everything right,

or is McCain doing something wrong?

Where are we in the race?

Gallup's got McCain down by six,

and even Rasmussen has it outside

-the margin of error. -Look, I understand that.

I like John a lot. He's a goddamn war hero.

But his message,

it's about as limp as Liberace's handshake.
