1. Ha. I read your post. And got this image of one crowd punching a

The people are, Baracks army.

2. Army of what? Unemployed?

The destruction that Bush & Co have wrought to the economy is scary.

5. Absolutely correct. As much as the French are frowned upon here, they take no prisoners...

8. Not enough people are in real pain yet.

It seems to be a sad fact that people don't take action until they personally are feeling pain. The numbers are increasing, but it hasn't reached a critical mass yet. Remember, 46% of the voting population voted for McCain. :eyes:
