| #5 Barkshire Hathaway closed today at over $90,000 a share. And it's a lovely private club that owns the stock - it's next to impossible to buy any, even if you have the dough. I'm with remote man; Buffet may be a smart investor, but hang on to your wallet if his "policies" get enacted. |

| #4 Warren Buffet is one of the world's great jackasses. I don't care if he is a great investor, he is a massive hypocrite who proposes one thing for the country while doing something totally opposite for himself. If he really cared about the "little people" he would split is stock about 100 times and pay a dividend. What a jackoff. Jobs wears black turlte necks all the time. No more need be said about him. |

| #3 "the trick here is for Kerry to convince moderates that he isn’t anti business while convincing the left that he really is anti business" ... That will be a new challenge for Kerry. He'll just vote for the pro-business bills before he votes against them. |
