You Sir are the living definition one of my father's pet sayings ... "He's an educated Fool." You consider a vote for some Chicago Sharpie who has never accomplished anything of any substance over McCain but can give no viable reason for such. My take on GWB is that you should be in in the crowd lining up to kiss his butt for keeping this Country safe since 9/11 ... that safety will end if Obama is elected. I've seen economies come and go and they almost always right themselves,, but no matter what economy We have it's no good unless National Security is in place. As for the war ... I equate it to being similar to Us going to Europe to get rid of Hitler. In Iraq We got rid of a man who was as mad and as bad as Hitler and his sons who showed promise of being worse. My major in college was Political Science, five of my eleven years in The Marine Corps was spent in Criminal Investigations and I spent nearly thirty years in Law Enforcement ... all of that to say, Obama reminds me of every Con-Man/Pimp I have ever encountered and my studies lead me to know that he does have Socialist leanings. You, if you have a brain that is operational, should know better than to trust ANY politician coming out of that Chicago Machine.
