Penn JilletteThe only difference between Obama and Bush is that Obama is killing more people. Heโs about double the numbers now. Can you imagine if McCain had won and did precisely what Obama has done, with every speech and every political maneuver overseas? Thereโd be riots in the streets about the people weโre killing.

Isn't it much sadder to feel that there is a more important love required than the love of the people who have chosen to spend their limited time with you?
