I guess because I don’t plan to vote for Obama, that makes me a racist, by Jack Cafferty’s logic?

What an elitist, out-of-touch, ivory tower snob.

…and one more question, how can either men, both who serve in the US Senate, be considered outsiders.  Last time I check Obama has served in the US Senate for 3 1/2 years.  How does that, in anyone’s judgment not make him part of Washington and the establishment?  They are BOTH politicians and BOTH of Washington. Neither one of them is an outsider.

“The differences between Barack Obama and John McCain couldn’t be more well-defined. Obama wants to change Washington. McCain is a part of Washington and a part of the Bush legacy. Yet the polls remain close. Doesn’t make sense…unless it’s race.”

Don’t even get me started with the columnist, Fatimah Ali, who called for a race war…. I am sick of gutter politics.

I have been a Sid Meier fan for years, I’ve loved his games dating back to the very first Civilization on the Mac, played the whole series, Alpha Centauri, all of em…  Never in a million years would I have expected the quintessential PC game to translate well to video game consoles and a controller.  The thought of controlling Civilization with anything other than a mouse and keyboard seemed like a pipe dream.  I picked up Civilization Revolution on the Xbox 360 today and was very impressed.  David Matthew and I (he serves as my military advisor ) ) have sunk about four hours so far into this…. I am sure there are dozens more to come.  Very highly recommended.

3:1 odds against this happening…
