.... Barack Obama

WTF??

Under an Obama leadership, exactly what country am I going to have get permission in order to turn my thermostat above 72 degrees?

Who's fucking business is it what type of SUV I drive? Who's business is what the hell we eat?

Is this the "change" this scumbag has been talking about?

So much for freedom.[/b]
Wow...talk about being specious...

Obama is spot on. He's not saying everyone is going to have give up anything.

The point he is making - American's can't expect other nations to say OK to being screwed out of resources just for us.

It has NOTHING to do with telling you what SUV you can drive, or what temp you can have your house at, or what you eat.

You may hate Obama, Madman...but at LEAST stop the intellectual dishonesty, Madman.
