No one asked if I wanted to trash the Constitution.



and you think Obama is wise and educated and thoughtful?
oh brother!
he will not get re-elected
his polls are still falling like rocks as people wake up, by Nov I would bet they would be flirting with 30%, it took ole George his 2nd term to fall so low, Obama has been in for less than 2 years, so much for him being wise or thoughtful, LOL
big news flash: we have had someone totaly unqualified in there and look what he has done to us!

Polls are not how I decide if I think someone is worthy. He may not get re-elected, but that won't change his core qualities--wise, educated, thoughtful.

I did not say polls decide how I vote, I said his polls are a good reflection
that the folks are waking up to what a hack Obama is
I did not vote for him because it was easy to see he is slime.
Now a whole lot of folks see that hs is not worthy of being president and can see that he is all about himself and not our country.
I hope we get someone to vote for in the next election that has their head somewhere other than up their own rear end.
Time will tell.

At least she has been Governor of a state and balanced a budget. Obama didn't even complete a term of office as Senator. He also has never held a job in the private sector and refuses to say much about his personal life. When you enter politics you no longer get the luxury of a personal life. Usually when a politician refuses to talk about something in their personal life they are hiding something. I can't trust someone that is hiding something.

I am suprised that 45 people voted for a king for the USA when it was not the intention of our founding fathers to have a king.

if you remember, george washington was offered it and turned it down.

Actually right now I think it's either the Clintons or the Bushes who run the country from behind the scenes along with the TriLateral Commission, Bilderbergers, World Bankers etc. Who cares who the president is?
