At least, according to Ralph Nader. Why people have ever listened to this guy, I have no freaking clue. They should stop encouraging him. Why anyone would vote for him is beyond me. Nader said:
“I haven’t heard him have a strong crackdown on economic exploitation in the ghettos. Payday loans, predatory lending, asbestos, lead. What’s […]

But John McCain might. See, for all Obama’s hype and courting of the “young and hip” - turns out he doesn’t even read blogs. Good to know. Guess who does? Yeah, Old Man McCain. And McCain knows the difference between MySpace and YouTube - which is far better than about 90% of the politicians out […]
