I will however say that with the window sticker so obviously Photo shopped into the picture... someone, somewhere thinks that Obama supporters aren't very intelligent.
With that said, I know some pretty intelligent people who are Obama supporters.
I also know some idiots that are too.
This isn't really the appropriate place to start Obama bashing or Obama supporter bashing. Which wasn't my intent with sharing the picture. But since I so obviously irked your intellect, I felt it my responsibility to explain.
Obama is clearly intelligent, but so was Napoleon. Obama is a great speaker, but so was Adolf Hitler. Obama is a great leader of the masses, but so was Jim Jones. (if you don't know those folks... google them. I think you'll understand my point better)
So being all those things, that Obama is... doesn't necessarily make him the best choice to lead this free nation. But that is what happened, and those of us who love who really love freedom are going to have to deal with it.
We can only hope that most American values are strong enough to withstand 3 more years of this plunder which is raping private businesses that provide most jobs. Also his policies will be placing further hardships on the American taxpayers who actually pay taxes. His goals are obvious, to support his socialist agenda and the redistribution of wealth in America. Taking away the principal core of the ideals which made this nation that great provider that it has become to the whole world. We will end up with a poverty stricken and a third world Nation on this path. That's when China will move right on in, and our great grandchildren will be speaking Chinese.... We've already let them buy up to much control of our economy as it is, and they're after more. I cannot for the life me understand why we'd sell our nation to another.... the debt is astronomical, and we're going to pay a dear price for it in the end.
Gerald Ford once said that "A Government strong enough to give you everything you need, is also strong enough to take everything you have." There's truth in that.
These Government programs of the Obama administration are not what the founding fathers of this great nation had in mind when they wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the U.S. of A.
If you could ask any one of the founding fathers what they thought of America today, I'd bet they would be disgusted. I also think most of them would lead another revolt. Sadly most Americans today don't know this lands history and are too sorry to give up their government provided handouts. It's too easy to let "the Government" provide for your needs, which is where I'm afraid we're headed. The doers of America... being controlled by the majority of takers, who also control the Government. This, alone will doom America. The hole that has been dug over the last 25 years is pretty deep. But if we stop digging now, maybe we can recover.
If you've not noticed, Obama didn't stop digging. In fact, he's brought out the back hoe. It's bad... really bad. But as a nation, we're too ignorant to see what's happening. Oh no, we only see what "we" are going to be provided at the expense of some other poor sap... Well eventually that poor sap is going to get tired of it, and join everyone else.
That's when the game is over and America will fall. It's so sad, and we just let it keep going on down hill. Check out Merle Haggards.. "headed downhill like a snowball, headed towards hell"... You'll get the idea of what I mean by this paragraph.
So this, my fellow poster... is what most of us are so "tiffed" about when it comes to the Obama administration with a Democrat controlled legislature.
We are fed up, and that change America was promised is just more of the same.. but with deeper costs to our Grandchildren.
So, I apologize if you were offended by my comment about the rear window sticker. I was not specifically pointing you out. I was generalizing as I think most Obama supporters were then or are now ignorant. I still do. Nothing personal, but if you can't see what this man is doing to this country financially... I can only assume the shoe must fit. Wear it proud as this is what liberal America wanted. I can only pray that the more conservative minded folks like myself wake up and understand that we really messed up by not showing up at the polls to keep him out of office.
I doubt we make that mistake again.
Oh... and being called ignorant isn't an attack against you. Calling you stupid... now that would have been a attack. Notice I didn't call you stupid. :-)
The ignorant can be educated... but as Ron White says... "You can't fix stupid". There's truth in that as well.
Peace.
