“Why is Obama sliding in the polls?”

Because America seems to have an over abundance of ignorant people, people that take pride in being ignorant. The US is the only nation that I can think of that looks down on intellectuals and heaps praise on the nescient.

This is true even of the “educated” Americans. A recent survey found that many Americans with college degrees, were unable to figure out how to balance their cheque books and were for all intents and purposes, functionally illiterate.

    Sounds like a plan. We'll swap you Harper for Obama.

      I'll still pick the "Cocky Wacko" over the terrorist appeasing Communist.
