Well, of course your business plan of embracing the competition, giving away product and guilt-ridden profits is how America was built.

Perhaps I don't spend enough time here, but did I miss your series focussing on Obama's achievements or is it gonna be all negative, all the time?

Side note: now that plan 'Mediscare' is in full swing, how do you reconcile Obama's cuts to medicare to pay for Obamacare?

I did it for awhile and then everyone complained that I was too much of a cheerleader. Here's a nice summation if you are interested.

I'm all for capitalism, dave, but what we have now in some places is truly disgusting, as this cartoon intimates. It's a system that is made for a plutocracy. When was the last time you saw a mom and pop store do well in the same town as a Wal Mart? Y'know, it's funny, but I don't get the small business blanket that the GOP wraps itself up in. How does supporting corporations help that?

Further, I think you missed the point of the cartoon. How do you reconcile your embrace of objectivism with your Christianity?

The words of Barack Obama:

And that's to be expected, because if you don't have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare voters.

If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from. You make a big election about small things.

And you know what? It's worked before, because it feeds into the cynicism we all have about government.


And by all appearances, it will work again. Hope you all love that change proggies.
