How ever you can come to the conclusion that Obama is 'smart' is beyond comprehension. Watching him on the campaign trail reminds me of Bush 2000. Complete ignoramus and doesn't even come across the least bit believable. What was that line again, "I've suspended earmarking while on the campaign trail"... Uhh yeah whatever. Thanks for using the word suspend you dolt, dead giveaway that you just want to continue the pork bork bork.

Read What's The Matter With Kansas. Explains why so many people vote against their own economic interests. In other words why they vote for the dumb guy. Their logic makes no sense, but at least you walk away understanding why they think and vote the way they do.

Thanks, I'll check it out. Have you seen a movie called "Idiocracy"? Hilarious, but so true.

Times were good and we all thought, well, what harm can he do, he'll surround himself with smart people, but he'll represent us because he understands us, he's one of us.

Yeah.

Now eight years later, we stand here in the smoking wreckage of our economy, in the middle of two wars, with millions of unemployed. Basic healthcare and college are completely out of reach for most Americans. Our country is hated all over the planet, Osama bin Laden is still laughing at us from Pakistan. Gas is $4 dollars a gallon, the institutions of govenment have been sold out to corrupt corporations, even the justice department has been turned into a political tool, and we're about to increase our national debt to 11 trillion dollars, and yet we're considering John McCain and Sarah Palin because we feel more confortable with people who are "more like us", even if they are a little dumb and more than a little dishonest. What's the worst that could happen?

Hmmmm. No, I think this year I'm going to vote for the smart guy, Barack Obama.
You are CORRECT.

Let's all vote for the crackhead
