    I downloaded and watched a documentary that was posted on another link on TD I think. It made frightening watching as it was spot on. I believe Obama is part of this plan to grind down America.

    This might be a pretty good read as well:



    HARDCOVER First Edition -- Updated Information to completely inform prospective voters of the November 2012 Presidential Election! Promoting Decline not only chronicles corruption in the Obama administration, and the destructive policies that Obama has used to weaken America, it tells of the Tea Party role in changing the status quo; the weaknesses of the Republicans, and how and why they have let the Democrats control the agenda even when they were in charge. Promoting Decline also details the road back -- how those of us in the pro-American majority can argue the constitutional case to those who are oblivious to politics and are subject to only the mainstream media version of events.

    ^ Quite true.

    The GOP is "just saying 'no'...." to eveyrthing. Gingrich noted this about 2 weeks ago.

    With elections coming up in 14 months, I see many Congressmen and even some Senators just obstructing to avoid a challenge in some districts from a righter-winger or Tea Party advocate.

    Source: I am piggy-backing these comments from Meet the Press, or some other 'pundit show.'

    It does makes sense.

    Rick,

    That information is incorrect. Where did you get this information?
    I saw a news bit where Holder was making the announcement (straight from the horse's mouth - or jackass in this case).

    and how's that "lengthy prison sentences" thingy working out for us?

    and why is it that people like you always use the term liberal "activist" judge when its something you disagree with?

    the most "activist" judge in our life time is Anthony Scalia.. (see Citizens United) but you probably call him a hero...

    No further evidence is needed to prove Obama is out to destroy America than this The Economic Collapse that lists 33 documented facts which gives us a pretty good idea...
    • When the Obama era began, the average duration of unemployment in this country was 19.8 weeks. Today, it is 36.6 weeks.

    • During the first four years of Obama, the number of Americans “not in the labor force” soared by an astounding 8,332,000. That far exceeds any previous four year total.

    • Median household income in America has fallen for four consecutive years. Overall, it has declined by over $4000 during that time span.

    • The poverty rate has shot up to 16.1 percent. That is actually higher than when the War on Poverty began in 1965.

    • When Barack Obama entered the White House, there were about 32 million Americans on food stamps. Today, there are more than 47 million Americans on food stamps.

    • When Barack Obama took office, the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was $1.85. Today, it is $3.53.

    • Electricity bills in the United States have risen faster than the overall rate of inflation for five years in a row.

    • Health insurance costs have risen by 29 percent since Barack Obama became president, and Obamacare is going to make things far worse.

    • During Obama’s first term, the federal government accumulated more new debt than it did under the first 42 U.S presidents combined.

    • When you break it down, the amount of new debt accumulated by the U.S. government during Obama’s first term comes to approximately $50,521 for every single household in the United States.
    Meanwhile, the media that put Obama in power and keeps him there despite his growing list of impeachable offenses tells us that we are in a recovery.

    33 Shocking Facts Which Show How Badly The Economy Has Tanked Since Obama Became President

    Booner my man ... You've pretty well convinced me Republicans still don't get it and don't stand a chance in hell of reclaiming the Presidency in 2016.

    I'll send you a small bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce if they do.

    Well, stores, I'm in agreement re Republicans of the John McRino and Lindsey Grahm variety don't get it although, the tax & spend Democrats really don't get it either.

    When you get right down to it, Obama is Bush without the redeeming qualities. That formerly peace-loving liberals continue to support him says volumes.

The two clown guards were inside flirting with the cashier. Even prisoners deserve better than that, especially in the USA.
    Just for the hell of it I called 911 and got some Sheriff's Department, the dispatcher put me through to the Watch Commander who seemed very pleased with the idea of sending real Deputies out to see what was happening.
    I worked in the jail for 2 years in my early 20's and took pride in treating the prisoners like humans, while still being careful for my safety and the jail's security.
    You learn a lot about someone by giving them a little authority and seeing how they act with it.

    There you go pulling the Race Card again.

    What is it with you Obama supporters always reverting to type re 'That's Racist' whenever the least minor criticism of the Messiah is voiced?

    Above all else, Dubya had/has integrity.

    A trait sorely lacking in Obama...

    Integrity.

    Not a word generally associated with a Democrat.

    So he deserves some credit for not blowing up the entire planet. As bad as he was, he could have been worse.
