… but here are my questions:

Obama wants to charge market-rates for access to Him on Election Night. Cool. Then why is he yammering against capitalism?

Does he just not understand that this is pure free-market, unadulterated supply-and-demand capitalism?

If it’s good for him why isn’t it good for the rest of us?

Something to think about…

    There are many reasons why obama should not become POTUS - but putting aside all of them the two big ones: watching Keith Olberman’s meltdown and seeing the Obama party turn into a pity party.
