I made myself a couple of copies of them. This may well provide me with the next response to one of those crackpot anti-Obama emails I get every so often. Always good to be well-supplied with rebuttals!

And yeah, your point at the end is EXCEPTIONALLY well-taken! CRITICAL to remember that you aren't just voting some candidate into the Oval Office. You are ALSO voting for all the advisors, donors, back-room friends and fellow schemers and others of like mind who DON'T have so much on the line with the public. So they can go stealth and exert all kinds of influence on judicial nominations, Cabinet officers, advisor postings, policy, etc. That's another big problem I have with wrongney. His foreign policy department is crawling with PNACers and their unfinished business left over from the truly DREADFUL dubya years.
