Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

As terrible as Palin is, I would have much rather had John McCain these last eight years than the disaster that is Barack Obama.

Sorry you're having such a struggle with simple things as facts. Those include Dumbya's going to war under false pretenses, the fact that 214 soldiers died in one fell swoop in Lebanon under the acting president's watch, in addition to 17 U.S. diplomats, plus the U.S. Ambassador to Cyprus and an aide were killed by a sniper in August 1974 under Gerald Ford's watch. So other presidents have had their own Benghazi's. Compared to his predecessor, President Obama has been an overwhelming success. God Bless him.

Really? Obama brought gas prices down? Would you care to explain what policy or initiative the Obama administration crafted to make this happen?

When you can't come up with anything, try googling "free market" and "fracking".


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

If people like a sitting president they often attribute everything good to him and everything bad to circumstances beyond his control.
Of course the flip side is equally true. If they don't like him everything bad is his fault and everything good happens despite him and would have been even better were it not for him.

Also there are times when policies and laws that were put in place in the past, not way past but near past, start working and change things for the better or worse. Those also get pinned on the current White House occupant whether or not they had anything to do with them.

This is true...

Bush wasn't really small government, Obama certainly isn't.

According to the stats I have, the Recession grew government, and the Recovery shrank it.

Of course this doesn't factor other matters such as federal regs that cost businesses to comply with.
