looks like the "concern trolls" are already out in force, and they seem well organized

1. I noticed that too
there's a LOT of talk about him trying cocaine. Not a lot about the fact that he only tried it when he was a kid. And that he's one of the few politicians who has ever been honest about that kind of thing.

...a lot of people seem to find a lot of 'plausible' reasons for preserving the status quo and not rocking the boat. Pitiful, really.

It's also interesting that several of these 'concerned' posters have quite low post counts. Guess the freep fifth-column isn't dead, it has merely been resting.

3. Ya, even if he did try coke, appears to me it has'nt hurt his intelligence
like alcohol did the current president.

Go Obama.

6. not only Obama...
