Hogwash. Take a look at the richest Americans Starting w/Gates/Buffet. The vast majority 'made it' from a little bit of education and a lot of hard work. Yet to see any lotto winners there.

Honestly, I didn't support Obama going in, but I think people who did and are judging him so harshly now, were being very unrealistic and with great expectations meet great dissappointment.

at least he'd send ringmaster Ned, Cookie and maybe even Whizzo to Afghanistan if asked. Oh and maybe even Sandy for those real old.

Never could put my finger on it but that famous French pantomime doufus reminds me of Obama and instead of a white painted face OB has a speach writer.
