Just take this last item: In the last two years we have accumulated national debt at a rate more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our entire nation's history.
Over 27 times as fast. Metaphorically speaking, if you are driving in the right lane doing 65 MPH and a car rockets past you in the left lane.
27 times faster, it would be doing 7,555 MPH!

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 29 months -- so you'll have one year and five months to come up with an answer. Every statement in this email is factual and directly attributable to Barrack Hussein Obama. Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable.

EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS...
I WONDER HOW MANY WILL FORWARD THIS ?

Hello Spare. Glad to know your health is back! Let me attempt to post my second post on politics here on this board........

The first post was deleted because I guess I attacked Mr.Obama rather harshly so I'll try again.
Mr. Obama is by far the worst President in the history of America. And I still believe that folks that voted for him should be ashamed. To think that 40 some percent of folks will vote for him a second time is warped off of the charts. I tried to warn people of his socialist dreams before the election but instead of listening to wisdom,they listened to goofy evil late nite comedians praising Obama but making conservative Republicans and Independents look like goofy fools. And the younger folks were the main ones fooled........ So this election is the most important in American history and I encourage people to vote in this important election for the sake of the future of America.............Southforkwally

The only thing that does not fly here is attacks on members of this forum, attacks on other forums or its members, nudity, racism, and that is about it.

Hopefully we didn't drop a post.
Buy American, the job you save just might be your own.
