  • Heh, good on the Obama team. If they don't check these guys out with a fine tooth comb. You can bet the Republicans will and if they dig out any dirt. The Republican manufactured shit storm will be immense.

  • lol,,, Ya!, Attack! kury get him, grrrrr ruff grrrrr ruff ruff.

  • um.... he was vetted in the democratic primaries and in the general election ... as in, he ran a nearly 2 year campaign, under intense media spotlight. I would like to see if anyone could endure that kind of process. The people voted, just like how the left wing had to put up with Bush, the right wing will just have to put up with Obama.
