Message to Dan: You’re a fool.

It was glaringly obvious what Brak was back in 2008 to those of us who were paying attention. I have no sympathy for those who cry out now “Brak tricked us!”

You brougt about the destruction of the country you purport to love. That is your legacy. Congratulations.

He was able to because hope sometimes overcomes rational thought.

How will he vote this year though? As good a writer as he is and as knowledgeable as he is on his subject he still picks lousy candidates to vote for.

As for me, as much as I dislike Romney’s tactics against the candidates I liked, he still made it to the top of the ticket. I can’t throw away my vote this year and have Obama stay as President because of it.

I don’t have the timne this morning to read what this guy has to say about crying in his beer.

The fact is we knew enough before 2008 for any sane person to vote against barrack Hussein Obama and this idiot ignored it then and is now feeling remorse.

Well sorry aint cutting it hoss.

I like his writings,but I seriously question his judgment voting for Bammie. O’s far left socialism and detriment to race relations was obvious in 2008. What did he expect...

Dan Simmons reflected the typical moronic American Voter, who had no idea who Obama was, what he represented or his background. Simmons thought koombayah “I’m voting for a black man, whoopie!!!

Such ignorance. Most liberals have no common sense. I guarantee you that these Obama liberals would not have made the selection they made if they were considering a more personal decision.

I mentioned this to a fairly successful moonbat recently that had Obama been a candidate in 2007 to take over his business and step into the role of CEO while he semi retired he would not take to chance on an totally green candidate with no experience. He insists it is not a fair comparison.

Well, Dan.. like 63 million other idiots, you fell in love with the image and didn’t give two sh*ts about the ramifications.

Has learning occured within the past four years? We’ll soon see.

With apologies to the hammers. And the sack.

I've "known" Simmons for many years now. He is a Democrat who has seen the light. He is on our side now, and has written some scathing commentary in our favor. I'll take it. The past is done.

But the same token, I have recently talked to a former Obama voter, who cannot stand the guy at all. He was similarly swayed back in 08. He and his wife are going to vote against Obama. There mere mention of his name causes a physical reaction of disgust for them. Do I berate them for their previous stupidity? No, I simply encourage their current awakening.

Yeah, I never would have thought D. Simmons voted Obama. Ever since the time traveler piece warning againsts radical Islam the libs have HATED him. Weird.

I gather from reading his post that Simmons regrets having voted for Obama.
