    It's found in a number of news

    sources but not the biggest ones. A lawyer buddy introduced me to it in the first place and he has a copy of the

    actual filings. I think its legitimate. I can send you the filings in PDF format if you are interested. A little big

    to post here but they are available if you want to look through more than 40 pages of legal gibberish. He is classed

    as a nut job so it probably will not go anywhere.

    I was listening to the BBC on my

    drive home from work the other night and they mentioned that the BBC World Service had conducted a poll.



    "People outside the US would prefer Barack Obama

    to become US president ahead of John McCain, a BBC World Service poll suggests.

    Our election isn't really any

    of their business and opinions of who we should elect are out of line. We have no right to tell others who they can

    elect and we should never pay attention to what other countries think about our elections.

    This

    may have been true in the 19th century, but today who we elect as President effects the whole world. Just

    look at Afganistan and Iraq.

    It may effect the whole world

    but it still does not matter what any other part of the world wants. We are free to vote as we wish and their

    opinions do not matter. By the same token we do not have the right to tell others who to vote for. Perhaps if

    countries would get their noses out of other country's internal matters we all would be better off. I think so.

    This was an opinion poll,

    was it not? I'm not sure that anyone's telling us who we can elect.

    Just as I can express my

    opinions about Putin, Tony Blair, or Benito Mussolini, so too can our neighbors express how they feel about the

    stupid things we're up to.

    Weird, though, because last I heard, Obama was disliked - quite strongly in

    places - overseas. I guess they hate the McCain/Palin tagteam just that vehemently. And I can't say I blame

    them. In general, between Palin and Obama (and especially after 8 years of a mental midget playing War Games with

    the rest of the world), we deserve every bit of the mirth and distain that comes our way.

    You'll notice that I have not

    once expressed an opinion about a leader of another country. Same as I don't express opinions about how others run

    their own homes. It isn't my business with very few exceptions.
