KnockoutJoe1,I'm white and voted for Obama. I consider myself no slave to anyone and your type of dialog reinforces bigotry by whites against blacks. I understand your objection to the post by ignoramus Unstoppable911 because it's pure racist bullshit but kindly do not put us white Obamians in the same boat with a honky asshole. Keep this in mind--if Obama had LOST the white vote, McCain would be in the White House and moron Palin would also have the nuclear codes.

I'm really not worried about who will win in 2012; getting things done NOW to strengthen our infrastructure like OUR dams and levees would be a good fucking idea!

Maybe build up those departments that handle natural disasters so if a big storm hits less lives are lost! Do some fucking thing to really be there to protect and help the American people, you useless jackasses!

Allan Lichtman is a great professor and a fun guy to hang with. Though his run for Senate produced an embarrassingly bad commercial.

4) Military; It took mr oblama days to decide what to do about the sea pirates. Decision should have been swift and fatal. Also, after telling veterans how much he supported them - his horrible proposal to have injured combat veterans purchase their health care insurance to cover war injuries.

5) His Word... During his campaign he gave his word that there would be; No Pork Barrel Spending, No Earmarks, Allow All of Us time to review legislation before enacting it..

Anything else?

1) Economy - He's placed upon the American People a 3.5 TRILLION DOLLAR LOAN. Annual Interest alone will be ~ $100,000,000,000. And that does not include any payments to the principal. Who is going to pay this bill?

2) Cabinet - Oblama has nominated & hired a cabinet of; Liars, Tax Cheats, Socialists, Racists, Incompetitent, Unqualifed People.

3) Foreign Affairs; No U.S.A. President Prostrates himself to any foreign leader (PERIOD). Giving $900,000,000 to Palestine(hamas)

Thank you and He should because I'm an honest, decent, highly intelligent, modest person who loves my country. I hate bigotry and am especially proud of Barack Obama for whom I voted. That man has more brains in his left ass cheek that George Bush has in that entire bloated head of his; the one on his shoulders. And God should bless you too. Now please pay me the $20 you've owed me since January. Thank you.
