The GOP are no longer even Christian .

They have proven themselves unamerican in their actions against the poor , the elderly, children, students, teachers, unions, veterans, widows, and minorities.

They only represent millionaires, now and we all see it and will vote them all out of every office in every state. We are the people and not corporations

I hope you Americans do vote Republican so when you middle class conservative voters get fucked over thinking multi billion dollar tax cuts for the rich will trickle down and benefit you as they never worked in the past, maybe then you fools will demand better of your thieving politicians that unfortunately effects global markets around the world.

Obama is the only president in history to have completely hidden or destroyed his past history (at the cost of millions) he even surrendered his LAW license to avoid investigation- an honest or decent man would NOT do this- GOOGLE “LARRY SINCLAIR” to hear Obama’s old friend (he has pics to prove their friendship) talk about their criminal past- Obama has tried to setup & smear Larry as a liar but somehow I believe Larry because Obama has deliberately & intentionally hidden his past-

@chowner There have already been twice as many votes for closure in this session of congress than in any other before, and it is only half over!

[chowner]

@SnugglePuma yeah um you're not smart

[coltor9]

The GOP are total obstructionists . They only represent millionaires and want no jobs as everyone can see, their whole existence is only to defeat Obama and to hell with the country, jobs,the poor or the middle class. We all see it and will vote them all out

@genie0390 "Obowma isn't going to pay your mortgage, buy you any rides or pay for your gasoline as many of you saps believed"

No, but it would have been a hell of a site to see a black man handing something out for a change. BOOM!

[DaBamBamMan]

No Cenk. He should do a recess appointment and put Elizabeth Warren in the position. Fuck em' all up.

@pooyan6969 I agree with your comments-gave you a thumbs up! :) Btw, Pooyan have you ever lived in Roswell NM?

[quetzalel]

@genie0390 Wow you can't counter my points with facts, I resort to your level and you STILL can't come up with anything that sticks! You sir are an exercise in futility! Please go away, I think Romney needs something washed-I hear he tips well...
