Obama is not a saint, nor is he a saviour, but he has shown better judgement and intellect than the GOP candidate. Several days ago GWB admonished the Soviet Union and called them a bully. Of course, our country wouldn't do that...would we? For six years the inmates ran the asylum and the likes of R.P McMurphy enjoyed sitting in the big chair. It's now time for change!

Big Farm even gets free engineering design and consulting from the NRCS. Once upon a time, until about the middle of the last century, farms were predominantly mom-and-pop operations. Now most farms are operated by mega-sized national and international corporations. However, government policies make no distinction, and the freebees flow freely to Big Farm.

Obama is done Maybe the Dalaibama should give his half million back...

Hypocrite... and people wonder why he's falling in the polls...

That and those polls are 20% wrong... ask around. When they ask you in the street you say sure I'd vote for Obama... cause if you don't you're a racist... but when the curtain is polled... you will pick who you want... and Obama will lose by 20 points...

PS: The exit polls will be days off too... for the same reason... but when the count is over... McCain will be moving into the Whitehouse... and the only one to blame is a stupid cult following and the DNC for trashing Hillary.... Bye Bye Moron... Obama is done
