Heaven forbid he ever got elected. Obama is showing the same political colors that pols have shown since time immemorial. Money talks and bullshit walks. While we are stomping around other peoples patches, killing innocents as well as bad guys, our own country is coming apart at the seams. Does anyone really understand that the military spends over $400 BILLION per year? For what? Do you feel any more or less safe than you did ten years ago? Are you better off than you were five years ago? Silly question, I know. Do you understand that this is well over a BILLION dollars per day, EVERY DAY, EVERY YEAR, and it isn't going down. It's escalating. Doesn't it seem like you're getting fleeced, lied to, manipulated, screwed? It sure feels like it to me. Go ahead, wave the flag. I am happy to be an American, but I am definitely not proud to be an American. This will come back and bite us, mark my words.</p> At this point it is safe to give McCain a break.

Still wouldn't vote for him but I might at this point try to extinguish the flames if he were on fire.</p> That may be the first sensible thing I’ve heard credited to McCain’s mouth in quite a while.
