Personally, I do not want Obama removed from the White House by the election process..... I WANT HIM ARRESTED, tried, convicted and sent to prison for the rest of his damn life.

Dream.... it’s only a dream....

“Obama is not the second coming of Jimmy Carter. He is the second coming of Ricard Nixon.”

No...he is the second coming of Joseph Stalin.

I don't think the nation at large will tolerate Teamster tactics at the executive level.

We shall see.
