Well that is true.
Here is the problem.
Obama knows that and just doesn’t care
The media knows it and they agree with Obama.
and we have more citizens that want the Government to run their lives then we have citizens that don’t..
Bottom line.America is screwed..

No sh*t, Sherlock.

The Obama administration’s treatment of just about everything contradicts America’s founding principles.

But the people are too busy watching TV and snorting coke to care.
