I wonder how many politicians ever actually watch their ads.  Youngest was 
over at a friend's house and they are 7 kids, with the youngest being 2.  I 
can't keep the kids or the ages straight.  Blame it on mommy brain <g>

So, one of the younger ones (maybe 5), wanted to know how come "the man says 
he proves it when he said it?"  Since I rarely listen to the stuff since 
most of it is either smoke and mirrors or outright lies, I stopped to watch 
the next batch of commercials and sure enough the little guy was right. 
There was Obama making a speech and then he pops up with "I'm Barack Obama 
and I approve this ad."  So?  He's gonna not approve himself saying 
something?  Got me to watching a few more of them (both parties).

~~sheesh~~  This campaign is being run my morons!
