He said...his way or the highway. His way is high taxes, high unemployment, continued un-checked spending,and the dollar in the toliet.

As bad as I thought Obama's second term would be before, it's clear that he's going to do everything he can to make it worse.

I happen to be in China, and I missed it because I was WORKING!!
Anything this man has to say is so insignificant in my world that I cannot give any attention to his diatribe. He has nothing to say that I find worth listening to, his words are hollow and have no substance. He has no value and is meaningless is my opinion.

I am less optimistic about America's short-term future under this POTUS but I believe America can make a comeback. We have to restore the constitution by strictly adhering to it and vote for representatives that have the utmost respect for the constitution. Then and only then, will America have a prosperous future.

Defenders of the constitution now considered to be terrorists. (by the FBI)
Terrorists, including American citizens - can be detained indefinitely, included into Obama "kill list", drones can be used on US soil, First Amendment is gone with H.R. 347, Destruction of Second Amendment in works, etc.
Since 2001 US becoming Police State.

How was anyone surprised by what he said? He is going to unleash all the evil on this country that he possibly can. He has told you for the last 4 years what is coming. Abortion, Homosexuality, big government, spending and more spending and the destruction of our country. You have not seen anything yet.

More of the same ol "blame everyone but me for the failures of my administration".
More promises to expand proven failed programs.
More demands for more taxes and borrowing with zero spending cuts.

We're starting this term with talks of removing 2nd amendment rights. This is not what I'd call starting in the right direction.

That is his hope and goal. Perhaps he will settle for 8 years of Mochelle as President.

His speeches have no real merit to them. So it means as much today as it did 4 years ago. This president has not been doing his job. The president could announce that he found a stash of gold that will balance the budget but until it shows up at the bank and is certified it still means nothing.
