You are finally realizing that none of these bozo's are much better than 
the low life brain dead s***bag village idiot residing in the White House 
now who many were bragging about 3 or so years ago. You don't hear those 
fools bragging anymore though.
Obama is the least qualified flavor of the month dip ever to run for 
president. Name anything he has ever accomplished other than an 
outrageous comment he was against the Iraq war before Hillary the great.
This was when I and most Americans were for going into Iraq based on the 
Cheney-Bush lies about WMD's and nuclear weapons development and 
deception claiming intelligence to sup****t these claims. 
No President in American history ever used massive deception on this 
scale to invade a country because we didn't like it's brutal dictator.
Getting back to Obama, if he were white with the same background and 
accomplishments he would not even be considered as presidential material.
The Republicans are just as pathetic with the crook John Mc Cain who was 
one of the Keating 9 I believe they were called, who took large campaign 
donations in the 80's, then called Federal Justice department 
investigators to derail the Keating Savings and Loan scandal 
investigation. He is a crook and a kookoo who claimed last year during 
the time when Bagdad was being bombed by suicide bombers that the 
generals were moving freely without special protection. What an idiot!!
Romney who like his dad George, who self destructed after a visit to 
Vietnam and later claiming he was brain washed by the Generals for 
statements he made about the war, tried to pass himself off as of all 
things a hunter. 
Remember Dukaikas or whatever his name was riding in an Abrams tank with 
his chin strap unbuttoned. 
Huckabee is a guy who claims to be conservative because of his anti 
abortion stand who wants to leave the Mexican border open and give 
amnesty to Illegal Aliens.
You tell me if this isn't the beginning of the end instead of a new 
beginning. Oops almost slipped off the soap box.
