When Obama came to be pRes_ _ent
with Hasan at his side,
it DID portent an endless gout of evil coming,
including the release of the Cole terrorists,
the release of 20,000 felons,
the release of al Qaeda from Quantanamo and prisons worldwide,
the transfer of MANPADs to al Qaeda,
the permitting of the Boston terrorists to enter
without a passport,
the ignoring of all phone taps re: the Boston terrorists,
the transfer of SAMs to al Qaeda,
the transfer of sarin to al Qaeda,
and the CONTINUING leaving open of the border for al Qaeda.
A+ please know that you meant to say PORTEND< which is the verb form, instead of portent, in your HW. sorry for the confusion!
