Certainly not mine. Obama is a puppet of wall street and out to destroy the United States. 1.7 trillion to the FED first month in office. Got torture LEGALIZED while lying, saying he was closing Guantanamo Bay. Lost America's AAA rating, botched the Gulf spill disaster, being crowned head of the UN (unconstitutional). His health care bill with 14 provisions for new taxes that removed free care for children under 12. 5 that's right, 5 new conflicts! He signed the NDAA when he promised he wouldn't ! Or what about the martial law acts? He has increased the national debt more than any other president in history, and that's in just three years! All to give to the richest institutions in the world. On and on and on, like his signing statements and pocket vetoes. Or Fast and Furious, and Solyndra, didn't he promise the most transparent presidency? ALL LIES !! Look at the economy! You cant even get a bag of chips for a dollar any more, whats the price of a can of coke? He is stealing right out of our pockets thru inflation. Look at GAS! This comes from an Obama voter in 2008, boy did he make a fool out of me. I'm now fully supporting the only non insider, the only non puppet the only one with honor in the old sense, the only one that DOES what he SAYS! RON PAUL!!!!
In 100 years the truly educated will see this president as one of the worst in history.

President Obama enjoys a wide lead over Mitt Romney among youthful voters. However, the nearly 24 percent unemployment rate among 18- and 19-year-olds cuts Obama's margin in half among that age group. Political pundits suggest that the recession and slow recovery play an important role in the 17 million newest voters.
“The concern for Obama, and the opportunity for Romney, is in the 18- to 24-year-olds who don’t have the historical or direct connection to the campaign or the movement of four years ago,” said John Della Volpe, director of polling at the Harvard Institute of Politics. “We’re also seeing that these younger members of this generation are beginning to show some more conservative traits. It doesn’t mean they are Republican. It means Republicans have an opportunity.”
“I think the lack of excitement right now is palpable enough to be a challenge to the re-election campaign” of Mr. Obama, said Peter Levine, director of the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement at Tufts University.

"New York Times reports:Since President Obama swept into office with vast backing from young people, a new corps of voters have come of age with views shaped by the recession."
Did you NOTICE that New York Times, calls them A NEW "CORPS" OF VOTERS, go figure.
Don't look up. Don't look Left or Right just keep repeating OBAMA IS GOOD!
Only the Fuhrer can save you!
This one reminds me of what some conservatives might look like on New Years..

My son, who is no longer in the 18-35 range but who did vote for 0bama has assured me he will not do so again.
As far as the campaigns stand, don't expect Obama to quit or roll over even though his record is miserable. He has a protective media that hides his incompetence and plenty of rope. The Romney campaign is raising enough money to expose the truth about America's economic condition and demonstrate his decision making ability and leadership skill. When it comes to jobs Obama will struggle to tell the truth. At the end of the day when Americans young and old decide America's future may God guide our choice for leadership into the future.
Aside from the idiots in the OWS crowds there are a lot of smart kids. Many seem the coming storm of debt and want no part of it.
Or how about this healthcare bill. Transfers untold billions into the hands of the richest insurance companies. How many jobs is that going to ship overseas when certain companies wont get the exemptions like McDonalds and WalMart, and are not going to be able to pay the ever rising costs.
Its not one element of the government against us, its BOTH.
“Ironically for President Obama,” said the group’s president, Paul Conway, “the hardcore reality is that young voters are now very dissatisfied with the direction of the country and are becoming more vocal in their demands for real jobs rather than promises of more unpaid internships and unproven programs.”
And, he added, their anger coupled with their social media savvy could be a threat to Obama. “These vocal young voters are even more digitally connected--and politically potent--for 2012 than they were in 2008,” Conway told Washington Secrets.

“Ironically for President Obama,” said the group’s president, Paul Conway, “the hardcore reality is that young voters are now very dissatisfied with the direction of the country and are becoming more vocal in their demands for real jobs rather than promises of more unpaid internships and unproven programs.”
And, he added, their anger coupled with their social media savvy could be a threat to Obama. “These vocal young voters are even more digitally connected--and politically potent--for 2012 than they were in 2008,” Conway told Washington Secrets.
But it’s not just Obama that the millennial are upset with. Some 56 percent believe the leadership is wrong in Washington, 69 percent say political leaders do not reflect their interests, 54 percent say the country is on the wrong track and three quarters want federal spending cut.
What the Generation Opportunity poll provided to Washington Secrets shows is that the nation’s next generation of leaders are extremely concerned about their status in a way previous generations weren’t. Consider: a whopping 77 percent say that they are delaying life changes due to economic woes. Of those:
-- 44 percent are delaying buying a home.
-- 28 percent are delaying saving for retirement.
-- 23 percent are delaying starting a family.
-- 18 percent will wait to get married.
“The key issue for young adults is the lack of meaningful choices among full-time jobs that offer an avenue to a stable income, a real career, and the realization of dreams. Instead of genuinely listening to their concerns, they see a president and leaders in Congress who have ignored their strong objections to higher personal taxes, government interference with business, and reckless indebtedness to countries like communist China,” said Conway, former chief of staff of the Labor Department and Office of Personnel Management.
Meaning you, perchance?
I have kept myself as open minded as I can without having to attempt to justify the conflicts I see in others and their prejudices etc.
After many years of butting one's head against a brick wall, wisdom sometimes comes to one.
If it does not, massive scarring will occur, and no one need ever consider the opinion of such "person" to be of any worth.
At the end of the day, another simple binary equation, imho.
So now it is time for me to start cutting Turkey's, Roasts and chickens for the family.
