Sexual pandering and racial pandering all tied into one.

Just wait. The next thing they will want to do is out Obama on our currency. For one reason...because he’s black.

What do they plan to do with the stacks of bills that people will refuse to accept?

Another example of pandering and playing race politics.

Hopefully the next president will put Ronald Reagan on the $20 bill.

It is ridiculous that President Reagan has not been recognized in such a way.

Effectively a nobody and a nothing will replace a somebody because we let some goofballs get into positions of influence.

Congress needs to just hold this up until the next President can fire these Orwellian Sh*theads in positions of influence.

This is designed to expedite the abolishment of cash. Change the faces, get people upset, other liberal groups will make more demands, then do away with cash entirely because no one will be happy.

I fricking hate this government.

Why don’t they just put Evita Peron or Madame Mao on it and get to the gist of it all?

Hell, they just want a placeholder for Hillary anyway. Obama on the five, Hillary on the 20...get Lenin on the one and we have the truth of the matter.

Obama will get his face on a bill before Reagan. Sad, but that’s where our country is now.

Harriet Tubman is not a bad choice, although if it had to be a woman I would have preferred Grace Hopper.

Anyway, I've read elsewhere that the change won't occur until 2030. By then a $20 bill will probably buy you a cup of coffee.

At least Tubman did something of worth and was a solid Christian. Ooooh, better not tell the Lefties that.
