************ This is why Obama is an attractive candidate: he really doesn't give a fuck about anything. The Baby Bush disaster has seen himself as nominated by God to deal with the devil on earth, which is why he's created the hellish Iraq war. If Obama were to get into the White House, he would feel no need to fulfill a war mission authorized by God, and that's a good thing. Then Barack's capable advisors would draw up plans to spend some of that trillions in war money on socially useful programs. But not to worry, Shemp, there is no way that Obama is going to win in November unless McCrazy strokes out or has some gross public display of his florid mental illness. You remember the sheriff in "Blazing Saddles?" Well, this brother ain't gonna put on the badge -- those are not red states, they're redneck... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071230/quotes
