Do you care? Do national politics mean anything to you?

Article comparing Obama's First 100 days with Roosevelt's.

A few years ago, many people said "A black man will be president when pigs fly."

100 days later, Swine Flu.

If you ask me, 100 days isn't really long enough to get any sort of accurate depiction of what they'll do.

If they're looking for scandalous behavior, or something like that, then I can agree with it. But some people seem to be discrediting him as a President, because "we're still in this recesion!, when is he going to get off his a** and do something!"

People need to understand that these things take TIME.

As far as whether I support, or oppose Obama, I don't care. He hasn't done anything that makes me say "WOW! I'M GLAD WE PUT HIM IN!" and he hasn't done anything to make me say "DEATH TO THAT WORTHLESS b*****d!!" either.

Bush left no room to question my opinion on him, but Obama seems to be keeping his head clear, pretty well.

If you ask me, the first 100 of anything sets the pace for the rest of the time period.

Haha you know swine flu is not that dangerous. Regular flu kills people all the time.

I'm still reading up on symptoms, and I do not have a solid source for this yet, but apparently the virus can kill you, reanimate you for a while with violent tendencies, then kill you again.

...Grab your shotguns and chainsaws. Here comes the Zombie-pocalypse.

I really don't care. In the case of the 2008 Presidential election, it was a race between the Devil and the Deep blue Sea.

o_O The swine flu is supposed to do that?

Actually, I was in a book store last night, and they had the "Zombie Survival Guide" and they blamed zombie existence on a virus known as Solanum. The viruses description of effect, was basically identical to the "T-Virus" from Resident Evil. And seeing as how ResE has been around since the 90s, and this book came out in 2003, I wonder if Capcom ever sued...

I need money to stock up crying

I've got a whole damn box of ammo that I can't shoot, either. My gun puts too much spin on a bullet this light, it'll explode from the centrifugal force the moment it leaves the barrel. I don't suppose you want to buy a box of .223?

I don't have a .223. .243, you'd have yourself a trade, though.

But, I figure, you, me, and Dion pitch in and get some "good" s**t. Surely if we put our money together, we can get SOMETHING worthwhile.

I actually saw a pretty decent deal on .223 surplus. The surprising part is that it was SS109 steel-cored penetrator ammo.

I've got a decent stock of some other s**t... .303, .30-06, 7.62x39. 9mm, .40, .45, even .177... just not much .223. I've even got a good stock of 12 gauge, including flechette rounds and the ever-favorite dragonsbreath. That s**t is an insta-brushfire machine out here.

DRAGONSBREATH! ******** YES! That's perfect for wiping out a hoard of zombies at once, since fire is a STRONG weakness for them! Hell, one Dragonsbreath round could probably stop 90% of an invasion, if you use it right (and it's not an insanely large group).
