Obama went to a G20 Summit. I believe the last one was held in Pittsburgh. Do you expect other countries to attend and not the USA?

This past summer, on a flight back from Dallas, we had a lay over in DC. When we boarded the plane, my husband noticed John Kerry on the same flight. He was a couple rows a head of us. It was just a regular old commercial flight from DC to Pgh. He had no entourage, just himself, flying alone.

I agree about the pork spending, but the people in his district loved John Murtha for the jobs he brought to the area. Are you trying to say Democrats are the only ones who waste money? I think a perfect example of pork is the bridge in Nowhere, Alaska. Palin is pictured wearing the t-shirt that has the zip code to Nowhere, but then said she sent the money back, yet the bridge magically got built. Plus the fact that the budget was balanced under Clinton and totally blown away by Bush.

I'm still waiting on the clear cut ideas. I haven't heard any yet.. maybe because there aren't any. Big mouths spouting off, but saying nothing.
