Answer to your ealier question is NO , you’ve misread meaning without first smiling

Answer to your comment re a poster “I dont get them at first reading” AGREE

answer to “in the interest of fair play i came across this article” is th 60% of argument on issues approach espec conomy 7 having an czar expert has lots of merit & should be implemented with 70% MCain time emphasis , whilst re th 40% of article on ‘name callling’ I completely disagree with th writer becauase th writer completely misunderstands Obama’s weakness in this area & foolishly wants to drop it all , whilst parodoxicaly McCain & Palin hav th ammuition but there use of it is typical swift boats nonsense & often lies , as they misunderstand what th ammunition means

Obama 50
McCain 45
