Great point. It will be interesting to see which side America takes during this next election. I've talked to several 'ultra' conservatives that couldn't think of a single positive thing the current president has done. Not a single thing in 2 years. It doesn't get much more polarized than that.

The radio station playing through my tin foil cap told me that the current President is a closet domestic terrorist, closet muslim, and closet socialist that couldn't care less about the victims of the Tucson shooting, and that he is regularly beaten by his wife, who happens to be a living breathing Vulcan from the star trek universe. Nope, no pink font here...
