Obama didn't apply as a foreign student.... His FATHER did.

Obama doesn't have another man's social security number.

Yep, still a massive amount of idiots out there voting in our elections.

Yes, isn't it weird how a lot of these idiots voted for a rich mormon with no endearing qualities whatsoever ;)

This is why you should not get your news from chain emails. Most of that is lies and twisting of the truth.
 
And you are proud of this, and the job Obama is (not) doing?

Quite proud to have supported Obama in 2 elections. Also a bit saddened that there was no other choice. In 2008, McCain was going to continue the inteventionist policies of Bush. In 2012, Romeny was going to increase defense spending.

Both positions were nuts.

Rand Paul may make a name for himself in 2016 - I don't think he'll win, but I think he'll make it interesting as I think America is ripe for a little more attention here at home and less abroad.

And Obama increased spending to a massive deficit, and is wanting to intervene in Syria and DID intervene in Libya. Yeah your logic there is outstanding.....

Thanks. Yep, Compared to the horror of Bush's foreign policy, we'll take Obama's any day. Obama is wrong on Syria.

Not if he doesn't go to war AND is able to get rid of Syria's chemical weapons. That's a pretty damn good thing IMO. If instead he opts for the US to go into yet another war, Rob will not be pleased one bit.

When Bill Clinton briefed George W. Bush about Osama Bin Laden making plans to use commercial aircraft as weapons and about some of the Saudi Arabs training in the U S to fly the planes he sloughed it off and immediately began his plans to give the rich two tax cuts, 2001 and 2003. That was pretty significant when compared to 4 people who volunteered to serve on foreign soil and drawing hazardous duty bonuses for each month they were there. It's the way Republican racists think. The way I think is:

Democrats 4
Republicans 3000

That wasn't the end of his naiveity.....he told 935 documented lies to invade the wrong country. The hijackers were from Saudia Arabia where his oil buddies lived:
