Barack Obama in Spartanburg, SC. Nov. 3rd, 2007.
"And understand this: If American workers are being denied their right to organize and collectively bargain when I'm in the White House, I'll put on a comfortable pair of shoes myself, I'll will walk on that picket line with you as President of the United States of America. Because workers deserve to know that somebody is standing in their corner."

Pants on fire.... Can his Wall Street Administrators not find a single pair of comfy shoes??
-
Be fair, you all.
Obama's been waiting for those comfortable shoes, but his Jobs Council head (former G.E. C.E.O. Jeffrey Immelt) hasn't been able to find them yet.
For some reason...

@lolKbgTgm6621what Yea, you figure the Republican fan base would actually support this guy somewhat.
-
So, what's the opposite of a RINO? Because that's what Obama is. A Republican in all but name.

Batrack Banana is just George Bush with a different name and party label. He doesn't seem as genuinely stupid as Bush is, but he is a much better liar than ole Georgie Boy.

@LanceMurtagh He didn't break promises. He flat out LIED. Anyone who took the time to do any research knew full well what he was going to do when he got into office: Emulate and surpass his Bush brethern. Of course mentioning these things makes you a YAAAWWWWN racist.
