A Redesign of usa.gov if Obama Wins

Andy Rutledge redesigns the website for usa.gov and I think he makes his point very clear. He also mentions on his site that many people that are not U.S. Citizens love Obama and that many of them are from communist and socialist countries.

Media Bias

A clip from a great article about the bias of the media coverage in this election:
