or his proofreaders
There is definitely no proof reader present.. If there is, they need to be fired.

EDIT:I think what Kalilla meant was that He's only going to answer select questions that "proofreaders" or his political analysts deem important or key.

I really don't see him answering a lot of the questions.

He answered the beer question though~!

I thought that was a great question, too, but I really cringed when I read, "threaten... to drown out the voices of ordinary citizens." Remember kids, your vote counts!

I don't want to say that the job is too big for one person, but there's nothing in common between the President's and a regular person's life, and I do think that we could be happier and better off if some things were bumped to the state level, or to county, or city, or left up to people to decide on their own.

The money, though, is ridiculous. But so many people are so intensely interested in politics and how the government operates that I am pretty sure that no matter what, the grey areas and loop holes in any attempt to restrict that kind of thing will be found in no time.

This comment is really directed, I think, at Prop 8 and 32 here in CA that were heavily funded by corporate donations and received media spotlight.

Ya they shutdown comments to the thread in i think under 30 mins after it got flooded with around 10,000 post. Essentially it crashed the site that has the rep of crashing other sites when posted on it.

Got an eye-roll out of me because of how campy a plug it was, but it was accompanied by a cheesy grin.
