It's more than the grammar to me. It's the stammering, butchered metaphors, and just plain stupid things he says when taken in context. He has all the intellectual savy of dry scat. ( )

No need; I'll be happy to provide current correction content.

As to Kennedy I don't think any comparison to Obama is merited without some factual support, but it seems obvious that he stands as evidence that a single person can produce tangible results through inspiration as well as perspiration.

Well, what subject is 'totalitarianism' under if not politics? As to other forum Turtles, none is me except our Hypog sister-site PostMagnet

Just in closing, and without getting too personal, I am both paternally and maternally descendent of Daughters of the American Revolution. Viva la libertad!
