Put his face on a $20 bill? It should be on a "Wanted" poster. The man is the epitome of stupidity and evil.

No way. Once Obama is gone, the country will want to forget that he was ever in office. Barack is just a footnote in the pages of American history. No one will want to be reminded every day of the disaster that was his regime. Name an interstate restroom in Illinois for him, and move on.

I am sure him and his followers believe those 4 are beneath him and have a bill already written to replace them with a huge one of obama. They are just waiting for a chance to pass it thru.

Sounds like wishful thinking to me. It's looking more likely to succeed with each passing day?

It's more unpopular now than it has ever been. His poll numbers tanked after the rollout to the lowest they've ever been. He had to have an emergency meeting Democrats in congress to keep them from siding with Republicans in delaying the program. He has an ad campaign going to try to convince people to since up for it. It hasn't met any of the projections set for for it. It's had to have significant delays to major parts of it. They have no payment mechanism set up for it. The IT people said 30% of the website hasn't been programmed yet.

His proposed immigration reform failed and he used executive order to attempt to administratively implement as much of it as he could.

The Arab Spring collapsed into violence. Al Qeda cells are on the upswing. Syria is in civil war and Obama ended up having to defer to the Russians to take care of the chemical weapons there. His deal with Iran explicitly allows them to enrich uranium and Iran just made a speech a matter of weeks ago saying they want to wipe Israel off the face of the map.

Seriously, what are you smoking?

Why would we put the man who was caught redhanded passing his signature legislation by lying to the American public on our currency?

It would extremely tacky to put Obama on any currency even if he were universally loved. We put presidents on our currency after they have passed away. So no, it is not time to put Obama on any currency. If you want to make an argument for it after he has passed away, then go ahead.

How about putting him on the penny the day before it is taken out of circulation. The nickel should be the smallest denomination of money.

Default Heads, or tails?

If his face is put on any bill, then Carter will be on the opposite side. But who gets heads, and who gets tails?

That would be perfect because Obama & Jackson are both lying deceitful back stabbers with hateful grudges.
The Seminoles called Old Hickory "Sharp Knife" for a reason and Jackson was judge, jury, executioner without due process same as Dear Leader.If the Indians,pirates and civilian misfits hadn't been there to save New Orleans he wouldn't be a footnote in history.

Let's put his face on the EBT cards. That would be appropriate.
