Nothing wrong with posting it. It is a legitimate example of a government involvement. I think it is 12 cents in Venezuela. My environmental quip was tongue in cheek but actually holds merit.

As far as environmental issues go I have (unless he has changed of late) the same view of global warming as bill oreilly in I don't know if it is caused by man but I do know pollution is not good.

See that's the catch for the most part you can't tell the difference between the corps. and the gov. they all look out for themselves.Atleast it seems.

So you cannot give an example of the government ever operating properly; yet you want more government.

In short, you are against private enterprise and believe the government should control business.

I'm going to go way out on a limb here, I know it's a reach, but.......do you think he might be referring to this campaign and not his life when he said McCain has yet to suffer?

Thank you...for a minute there, I thought I was going to have to concoct a 12 paragraph diatribe explaining what you said perfectly in one sentence.

This is an example of the type of thing Obama needs to be careful of as the election gets closer. He must be clear and concise, a comment like this could blow up in his face if made at a crucial moment, no matter what the intention was. We all know what he most likely meant but when you are speaking to or of a former POW and victim of torture you can't afford to make this kind of statement as things heat up.
