  • ADW A great piece of anti~American clap trap propaganda if I ever read one.Mostly lies more suitable to his opponents than himself biled and vomited out of a right wing so corrupt that they lie straight to your face .The previous commentor just called the president everything short of a satanic African American jiggiboo. If she truly thinks that Mr. Obama is the first president to do these many twisted to fit her agenda tirade things,then she hooked on FOX television and as most FOX bigots misinformed herself on purpose.I would hate to call it racist except for the fact:it's racist. This anti~American masturbation is sickening in itself,but destructive to all America. The Do Nothing republicans are actually worse than do nothing.The hinder the progress of the will of the people to help the people because companies like Wal Mart and evil corporate heads like the Koch brothers not only want all the cream at the top but slave labor at the bottom.Why does our government have to support places like McDonald's and Wal Mart via services like foodstamps and Obamacare? Because that's the way big businesses like it.Wait..they don't even like that.It's bad enough that they have America pay a large percentage of their employee's below poverty wages & benefits..they still want more hand outs from the feds.Tax free land,free roads,water and sewage,Tax cuts,tax loop holes.The republican party is destroying America from within and calling out anyone that they can to smoke and mirror hatred for the readily gullible enough-like the commentor above-attention away from the true misdeeds that are destroying us. I could go point by point down her list,but what's the use.She already knows that it wasn't Obama that cut our credit rating.It wasn't in the president's power to filibuster and refuse to pay the bills that were already do.That was the republicans -per-congressman- that lowered the credit rating.She knows that.But,she would rather give into her base instincts and and hate and place blame where it doesn't belong.Christ kicked the money lenders out of the Temple..an accepted practice for the day...but,some people will rather follow the carrot on the end of the stick,never getting a bite,welcoming the naughty thoughts of greed than produce the courage it would take to exercise their free will and actually think for themselves.
