As your messiah requested? If not, you are not alone:

Few supporters are answering President Barack Obama’s call for nationwide house-party gatherings this weekend to build grass-roots support for his economic stimulus plan.
A McClatchy survey of sign-up rosters for a score of cities across the country revealed only 34 committed attendees in Tacoma, Wash., as of midafternoon Friday; in Fort Worth, Texas, only 54, and in Sacramento, Calif., just 78.
“Before the election, we would have had 500 to 800,” said Kim Mack, 46, a Sacramento city-facility manager who’s hosted house parties for political figures and causes since the mid-’90s.

Maybe his supporters don’t really care about the economy:

Obama campaign house-party meetings were “truly about something that united everybody,” Mack said. “This weekend, what we’re talking about is the economy, and some people just don’t want to be involved in that. Their issue is health care or climate change or getting out of Iraq.”

If our economy tanks, all other issues are moot.
While I’m on the subject of Obama supporters I was a little creeped out while watching TV on Friday (yes, I’m watching daytime TV now, which I do when I’m really depressed). Jennifer Aniston was on The Ellen DeGeneres Show (and no, I wasn’t watching the show, I was actually watching Dr. Phil and switched to DeGeneres during commercials — and yeah, this is the kind of crap I waste my time watching now that I have cancer) and she made a comment about how the paparazzi found her dog when he escaped and then she segued into a disjointed ramble about how we should only focus on good news now that we have a new president. And then while watching The Tyra Show (yeah, you can tell how bad my depression is by the quality of the shows I’m watching), Tyra actually said that people shouldn’t leave nasty comments on her website because we have a new president and we should stop the hate.
Um…I’m all for the love but why in the world should having a new president impact how we live our lives unless he has become our example of moral living? Hmmm….that sounds familiar.
