CBS and CNN are in the tank for Obama though. All those gotcha journalism questions to Palin, I mean come on!

The Fox focus group said Obama won, too.

Didn't you smuggle a bunch of money to the phils for safe keeping?

Sloww, sometimes you delve into the best self-parody I've seen.

[SlowwHand]

My opinion is no more ludicrous than either of yours.
I'm entitled to it, just as you two are entitled.

I tan up enough to pass for an arab, I should do ok with Obama.

[SlowwHand]

On the positive side of it, I don't hate Biden too much. He may make a fine president.

[Patroklos]

Being he would be a defacto regent, you should be okay.

Book Description
"This is not a book about the decline of America, but rather about the rise of everyone else." So begins Fareed Zakaria's important new work on the era we are now entering. Following on the success of his best-selling The Future of Freedom, Zakaria describes with equal prescience a world in which the United States will no longer dominate the global economy, orchestrate geopolitics, or overwhelm cultures. He sees the "rise of the rest"—the growth of countries like China, India, Brazil, Russia, and many others—as the great story of our time, and one that will reshape the world. The tallest buildings, biggest dams, largest-selling movies, and most advanced cell phones are all being built outside the United States. This economic growth is producing political confidence, national pride, and potentially international problems. How should the United States understand and thrive in this rapidly changing international climate? What does it mean to live in a truly global era? Zakaria answers these questions with his customary lucidity, insight, and imagination.

But you are right, you do have the right to voice your opinion that you think that a man reading a book by a well-known journalist about the changes happening out there in the world is not what an American should look for in a possible President.

Zakaria is a) educated, b) dark-skinned, c) intellectual.

We don't need his ilk influencing our leaders, who should be deciding with their gut.

Everyone is allowed their opinion, but all opinions are not equal. Ones that are completely devoid of actual fact behind them are ludicrous, and thus do you make me laugh heartily.

@ Slowwy for his kneejerk reaction to a book he knew nothing about. Good God, Slow, you really should read at least the Newsweek article about this they had a few months ago. It is a very good read and even made me feel a little better about the challenges our country faces in the century ahead. It isn't some anti-American creed.

OK... WTF???
