Speaking of weightier matters, where are Obama state Senate files? So, how eactly is Obama going to call in *his* attorney general, if he wins the Presidency, and reverse all those decisions made by the U.S. Attorney General, that presumably the U.S. Congress and the Supreme Court haven't seen fit to question? Apparently Obama can't even land his own plane in Cedar Rapids, IA! Go figure. 'Obama plane lands in wrong Iowa city' By John Whitesides Reuters, November 8th, 2007 http://tinyurl.com/yw9rpr
