For those who don't know or remember a well known book by George Orwell called Animal Farm. This book hits home to problems that we have today :Animal Farm is a novella by George Orwell, and is the most famous satirical allegory of Soviet totalitarianism. The short novel is an allegory in which animals play the roles of the Bolshevik revolutionaries and overthrow and oust the human owners of the farm, setting it up as a commune in which, at first, all animals are equal; class and status disparities soon emerge, however, between the different animal species.
The novel describes how a society's ideologies can be manipulated and twisted by those in positions of social and political power, including how a utopian society is made impossible by the corrupting nature of the very power necessary to create it.

To bad Americans didn't read George Orwell's book. We know the Europeans did read it and that explains why they knew what the Bush Administration was up to in 2000. Yes Tony Blair was paid but the Brits kicked him out and now PM Brown knows how to play the game. Notice how both France and the UK are slowly pulling out of both Iraq and Afghanistan. Yes with McCain in office it will be easy for another country to walk in and take over.
Yes and it will end...Bush III will not happen, the American people are onto them. McShame (and I say this as a military family for the shameful way he has done our veterans) and the many skeletons in his closet are fodder that will serve the Obama campaign very well. McCain,much like Dubya shouldn't brag much about graduating at the bottom of any class. Those two are good for those who argue that grades DO matter...
