| Question |
% |
Choices |
| Between health care, Afghanistan, Gitmo, all his media appearances and his ill-fated Olympic bid, do you think President Obama has taken on too much at once? |

He's mortal like the rest of us. Lay off. |

I'm just wondering when he sleeps. That's all. |

|
| Question |
% |
Choices |
| Do you think the Scottish courts were right in releasing the terminally ill Lockerbie bomber, so he could go back to Libya to die? |
8% |
Look, he's deteriorating quickly-- there's no need to be unnecessarily cruel. Let him go home. |

They should've let the families of his victims vote on that. Why does he deserve compassion when he's showed no remorse? |
| 6% |
It is a moral victory for Scotland. |

I don't care where he dies, as long as he dies. |

Unions built this country and deserve respect. It's management that's being unrealistic. People can't work for nothing. |

Nobody's getting what they want in this economy-- Management should just impose the contract and get this over with. |

Just give me the keys and I'll drive the freaking train ... Are there keys? I'm going to need a manual, too. And an authoritative blue jacket. |
