Gayle RE: Food Stamps Food stamps are run by the states. I find it interesting that the gOP attacks Obama about food stamps while the top 10 food stamp states are all run by Republicans.

I read plenty. Still dent answer the fact the Republican run states have the highest levels of welfare, the lowest scores in education, the highest poverty rates and the lowest salaries.

It matters not who runs the Food Stamp program, it matters that so many more people need Food Stamps. Get a clue, my god!
And if only the Republican states could be like California....going bankrupt!

It seems like every week, we're inundated with Obama-hanging-out-with-celebrities stories. So much so, that I'd kind of lost track until I stumbled across this video from Politico which details Obama's top 5 celebrity fundraisers.

Yeah, yeah, I understand that Romney has some celebrity supporters, too. But it all begs the question: do you really want Hollywood choosing your next president?

I will add this note: I don't think that being a celebrity automatically disqualifies you from having an opinion in American politics. If you're a citizen, this affects you. But I am not quite sure...
