The only people who think it's unfair are the ones it actually applies to and they simply respond with racism, xenophobia and gun-grabber scare tactics which basically proves his point. Not to mention, EVERYBODY is bitter. It's not an insult.

- swagv, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1Nice to see that voters are focusing on the things that matter most in effective national leadership. %^/
If we have to depend on other voters like this making the right choice, we are all f*#$$ed. - BassMastr, on 04/13/2008, -0/+1I don't like Obama, but this is just dumb politics...who cares what the man decides to drink and good for him for drinking what he wants and not drinking what he thinks someone wants him to drink. How petty...
