And then, there''s the matter of the "college service" program. In it''s latest itteration calls for paying students $4000 for 100 hrs of community service at a cost of 32 billion a year just for the payouts. Add the cost of the huge administrative machine that will go with it. Still more tax burden on the middle class.

Why hasn''t anyone (anywhere) commented on the fact that Howard Dean is the person that pushed the 50 state plan from the time that he became the head of the DNC? Barack Obama and his team did a great job of implementing it, but it was Howard Dean that originated the idea.

Its unbelievable how much people are in love with obama over a simple speech on "change" which he reads off a teleprompter. We dont even really know who he is.

What - you had a better option to offer?? I think not.

at least we know who McCain is/was. All we have now is unanswered questions of past associations with radicals on the fringe of american society and votes of "present" in the senate.

On ACORN - It simply does not make a bit of differnce if ACORN falsified the registrations. It was the voters who counted. Also, the vote count for Obama was so huge, you could have thrown away all votes disputed and Obama would still have won the popular and electoral votes.

There is one amusing truth about Obama. The man can eat 10,000 calories in one day and not gain one ounce. The volunteer staff learned the hard way that if he visited an office and spied a pizza/doughnut box with goodies still in it, that box would dissapear into his limo with him.

The people who believed & worked for the Obama Presidency are nothing but heroes - what democracy is all about. Keep the faith, the rewards are widespread!
