This story is REALLY long, but worth the read.

Blatant politics, shameful biased journalism from the Rolling Stones mag. I noticed they also did a dig on Palin, Have all of you non-thinkers out there wonder why this comes up 30 days shy of an election? If your pro-Obama fine, but this is one of the worst smear campaigns I have yet to see. BTW, everyone has a breaking point when being tortured. Breaking ones arms lends a lot of credence on how far they went before breaking at all.

These stories are hardly new. Most were already covered by right leaning news sites years ago and were used by the Bush campaign when McCain ran against him.
I really like the part where he divorces his injured wife in order to marry into some money.....now that's family values.

They're both nuts. But, personalities aside, you need a democrat for a while.

I agree, "a new paradigm," is getting to be a worn out phrase already but it makes it no less true.

There may be some unknowns with Obama but he is the new paradigm that this country needs. I feel kind of sorry for him, what he inherits is in a shambles left by a Republican dominated political systems, they've had there chance at the great experiment.... Time to move on big time!

They'll tell you where to go

Where some have found their paradise
Other's just come to harm

Did you know I read that a space ship from Mars crashed in the mountains and the Air Force found four little grey-green big eyed men. They were only 3 feet tall and had no sex organs but one of their fingers had a forskin and....................
