Warren Buffett backs Obama

No surprise about this story. Buffett has long diverged from the libertarian-Republican philosophy of his congressman father. Buffett fils opposes abandoning the inheritance tax, favored the expensing of stock options and often tilts against the positions of his fellow plutocrats. These days he might have been a liberal, Eisenhower-Rockefeller Republican. But there aren't many of them left.

Obama has said that you are not smart enough to control the thermostat in your house but everyone else in the world is.

it is absolutely amazing the dumb stuff
that people attribute to Obama .
