Gloomy, 72 and a chance of rain-I love fall...
Obama’s magniloquent speeches
Have gone right to his head-
All that verbiage is pointless
When nothing is actually said
Much like Michelle’s outfits-
Very flashy, but lacking class
They suffocate us with flowers
And the media gives them a pass
He’s an ill-tempered Chihuahua
That snaps to prove it is tough
Then runs into a corner, yapping-
Aren’t we all tired of that stuff?

Thank you! I hope something significant will be revealed in the House oversight & reform committee hearing on the Libya attack, but I won’t hold my breath...

The Magniloquent One is a man quite long-winded in speeches, but seriously delinquent on many matters of REAL importance

The Magniloquent One is a man quite long-winded, but we continually see this Delinquent go make serious errors in judgment and policy which adversely affect our nation.

The only thing The Empty Chair has ever had to offer is a penchant for
magniloquent speeches.......which is an important quality for a Manchurian Candidate to have. Now we know what the Csars were for.......
Sorry I'm late, been sick maybe food poisoning not sure.....urghhh....

The worst thing about Obama and Wright is that I can no longer assume in ignorance that the Black churches are part of the solution.

Good link. Hilda Solis is the only one in America who believes in the accuracy of the job numbers. Just like Susan Rice was the only one who believed the Benghazi murders were due to a video.

Today I am a 40 yo black dem woman voting dem for senate but voting Romney for president. I am oh so disillusioned such that I feel compelled to split the dang ticket : ). My brother is screwing with them similarly in Ohio, but only when we have reason to believe its a dem poll. Xshub got one last night that self identified as Obama volunteer and he gleefully told her we have five votes for governor Romney in this house.

I got a poll that was NYstateGOP, so I confirmed I was voting Rep in all four races. Romney, Long, Reed, Libous. I am confident Libous will win reelection. Not sure my state will pick the rest.
