The Mind Of The American Voter
Welcome to Pennsylvania:
Peter Contacos, 42, the fourth generation of his family to own and operate Coney Island Lunch, a downtown Johnstown business that survived two floods and the loss of thousands of regular customers when Bethlehem Steel eliminated 15,000 jobs in the 1970s and ’80s, will not vote for Senator Barack Obama, “because his name is Barack Hussein Obama — case closed.” Mr. Contacos, an avid hunter who proudly displays pictures of himself with a magnificently maned lion he killed in Botswana, said he considered Mr. Obama “a terrorist.”
I suspect Mr. Contacos voted for George because he's the sort of regular guy you can have a beer with.
We live in a very silly country.

my stomach just went, "GLURGH!"

I used to be able to laugh this kind of idiocy off, but now I see my country crumbling because of it and I want to cry.

Believe me, I'm not laughing.
