[QUOTE="Bad Gas!, post: 308375, member: 14062"] I think for yourself and vote for who you want.2pts.:The immagration problem actually costs more to taxpayers than the Iraq war due to all the costs that come with the illegal invasion....pt 2:The war sucks and everybody knows it but you can't just up and dump it like a highschool fling...Ok so let's set the stage. Barack Obama and John McCain had a little back and forth yesterday over al Qaeda's presence in Iraq.
