“I am worried that there are not enough adults left to make this country work.”
Yeah, that worries me too; but it’s really hard to tell after this election you know? I mean in 2004,I honestly believe Charles saved us from having Kerry as President when he exposed the TANG memos and Rathergate ensued - many folks have forgotten that Rather put that out there hoping it would swing enough votes to Kerry’s side just before the election.
This time around, the entire MSM played the role of Dan Rather - not in the sense of making up forged documents, but the way they protected Obama, tore up Joe the Plumbers ENTIRE LIFE just because he asked a legitimate question of Obama (and frankly one that the MSM should have asked Obama) and the way the MSM went after Sarah Palin. I honestly don’t think enough “adult” votes recevied all the information they were entitled to receive from the MSM and therefore voted for what I still think is an empty suit, Chicago style, 3-card Monte hustler who doesn’t have a damn clue about LEADERSHIP. But Obama was cunning enough to use the race card only when necessary (and even then had his “associates” use it not himself) and to use money from questionable sources to outspend McCain 7-1.
I don’t, in other words, know if there are enough adults around who could have voted intelligently last November.
