There are a certain percentage of people in this country who don't even know who the president is. There are always some weird people who will believe anything- be happy they have their own thread, and pray they stay there.

We call that thread the "unfit" thread.

Barack, even before he landed in Afghanistan, drew support from world leaders such as Maliki. I think Barack's foreign trip has sent a panic wave in the WH forcing Bush to change his stance on N.Korea, negotiations with Iran, agreeing to a troop pullout from Iraq with a timetable etc. Couple this with the recent drop in oil prices.

And the MSM has still not picked up on this!!! Or are their actions deliberate. I guess they are trying to stay afloat and refusing to do down with the Bush-McCain ship.
