And I truly am sick of the socialist card, its very petty to just throw it in there to make Obama seem like the worst guy in the world. Great Fox news tactics your using. When you cant find anything else to be mad at Obama for, just call him a socialist, that'll show' em.
The problem is he is becoming popular in the eyes of the wrong people.
Giving Ghadafi 400K at the last UN meeting....
Being weak on issues that make America's enemies smack their lips.

The socialist card is being played because of this year's socialist acts. Do we need to really list them? Maybe not all from Obama directly, but strongly from this administation as a whole.

We have a president who priorities are to travel across the globe in two convoys that have been estimated at 2 million dollars to try to round of the 2016 olympics for Chicago of all places.. where we get national news of Chicago gangs out of control the same freaking night!!!?!?! At the same time Obama flies the General Mcchrystal to the runway in Denmark to meet/scold him for 25 mins to tell him to keep his mouth shut to the media and that his months old requests are going to be put on the back burner...

(By the way did anyone read the President's and First Lady's speech for the bid for the 2016 Olympics... my god... High School Sophmore level speeches at best. )

When I see stuff like I saw on Detroit on the news last week, I thought it was Katrina all over again. I see infrustructure collapsing, I see disasters like Katrina, States that can't balance a budge and declaring bankruptcy of the state....I should weep, Americans should weep. Luckily these places are few if you look at the country as a whole, but these problems are growing and spreading... Government health insurance isn't going to help this. Printing money and wealth distribution is going to help this. Spending our way into oblivion isn't going to solve this. Rewarding failure isn't going to help. Crxpping on the military isn't going to help. America has got real problems, and what is being addressed is not helping these issues.

You can knock Fox news all you want, but this is one of the few media sources that are actually making real changes in rooting out corruption and inaquticies of government. They break the story first, and other media sources as CNN, CBS and ABC are having no choice but to follow suit.

Government in the US is out of control and officials live like rock stars at citizens expense. Priorities are so far out of wack. The worst part of it is ... they know exactly what they want and are doing it.

If anything this administration is waking up the nation fast...and the nation isn't liking what they see in what THIS and PAST government has become. I thank Obama for that even if it was done indirectly.

I should of had a V8.
