8% of personnel in the Obama administration have business experience. They are a bunch of social workers trying to set up social programs. Any surprise that Obama's economic policies create no private sector jobs but increase the size of government?

First you have indignation over criticism about Obama's financial and business acumen. Then you counter my affirmation of Rogers comments by throwing a PEOPLE magazine article of Gwyneth Paltrow at me as substantiation of your argument against private citizens criticizing our government. WOW! our country really is screwed up.

Gwyneth "Freaking" Paltrow

Is the Dixie Chicks incident coming next?
