I think your approach with these obamafreaks is going to be what all of us do. I have and intend to keep it up.

I would love to be a little fly with a camera , following everyone that ZOTS these idiots, take their picture and record their reactions.

They are going to be very lonely people, who have no where to go on Thanksgiving or Christmas, lol. Afterall it is precisely these people who only COME (with their mouths open) but never INVITE to any holiday event. They are in every family & circle of friends.

That would make one heck of a utube.

No, it is a Good thing. Not all are college material anyway.

This is just another of the lessons in life that they needed to learn, "elections have consequences".

So now they can get their certificate from the "School of Hard Knocks". They graduated with honors. lol

A cut to 12 semesters of eligibility? Six years? Oh, how harsh.

My daughter is a double major in biology and civil engineering and planning at least a Master's in Soil Science.

All told, it takes that long.

Fewer students can get free money from the government for college? No problem with that. Privatize all of it, with no government funding.

Nope. I don’t expect any, much less any time soon. I emailed the article to them. Email, in case you didn’t know, is ‘very last century.’ I didn’t know how to txt it to them, or Tweet or whatever.

“So you wanted Romney to keep this entitlement? Isn’t the conservative message ‘cut entitlements’?”

Nonsense. In previous races, Romney himself has an extra-ordinarily well-documented track record of double-speak on most any issue that will gather him votes . A dozen youtube videos witness this.

Either his campaign was negligent on this issue...or he “threw” the election.

This didn’t just happen overnight. Obama knew of the cuts while he was on the campaign trail telling students he had increased Pell Grant budgets.

We know that. Let obama’s worshipers find it out.

We laugh to hide the tears!

Over the Thanksgiving weekend we had an extended family gathering. One of the twenty-somethings, by virtue of her employment, had just met personally with none other than the Messiah himself. And, doncha know, he was REALLY cool! And Michelle was even cooler!!! Waaaaay cooler. Yessiree.
