I agree. Obama has been well versed on all the anti-American stuff all his life.

FUBO is at best a traitor and at worst a hostile foreign agent in either case he needs to be removed from office (legally of course) before it’s too late ...

Latin America is not the way it is because the US exploited it. It’s because dictators like Chavez himself have made it so. If Obama wants to lend the good name of the US to Chavez’s treachery, then leave me out.

“don’t even want to look at the news any more.”

I know what you mean, but my husband likes to keep up with what’s going on. However, when the “news” is so slanted to the left that you can’t trust it, I don’t know what good it does anyway to watch it.

According to Jake Tapper’s Twitter:

“The book Chavez gave Obama started the day w/Amazon rank of 54,295. now it’s 17.”

According to John McCain’s Twitter:

“Chavez’s book - best cure for insomnia!!”

Remember BO’s exhortation during the campaign that our children should all learn Spanish because U.S. citizens who only know one language are stupid?

Anybody familiar with what’s in this particular book Chavez gave to Zero? I know the subject is “blame Europe and America”, but I’m curious to know if there is anything in there more recent than the CIA helping Pinochet overthrow Allende, or perhaps Ronald Reagan helping the contras oust the Sandinistas.

Given President Obama’s education, he probably could have written the book.

This is great. Hugo gives him a Marxist written, anti-American screed written in a language he doesn’t read, and he smiles and grins at the camera like the baboon that he is.

He’s been punked by this clown and he doesn’t even know it. I wonder if anyone will tell him.

“...he needs to be removed from office (legally of course) before it’s too late ...”

Will never happen in today’s political atmosphere with our lawmakers looking out for themselves and ignoring the needs of our country.

Most are, I agree, but here in the heart of Texas I know several seemingly intelligent people, both male and female, who are generally conservative on most issues who also voted for Obama. I think it was a combination of white guilt, and getting caught up in the historical moment. I don't know how many votes that translated to across the country but if you combine them with the media blitz, the out right lying by Obama on what he was and stood for, the voter fraud by ACORN and others, and our very weak candidate who seemed determined to lose and we get a small-margin victory for the Communists.

Whether we can recover while fighting media that has become a Democrat house organ rather than journalists and overcome the voter fraud perpetrated by those in charge, I don't know.
