It's pretty creepy that Obama was so smugly certain that he would get elected a second term, isn't it? I personally suspect that our elections are pretty much pre-determined at that level....

See, what we seem to have here is something akin to an abusive relationship between the government and the people that is resulting in Stockholm Syndrome.

Do you not see that you are being played yourself, forced to vote within the two party system? The excuse about "splitting votes" always cracks me up.
And, do you think that Mitt Romney, who had his own version of Obamacare in Massachusetts, would have been better?
Seems to me that we are presented with two choices, and BOTH OF THEM are predetermined to do the same garbage, just under a different party. Abortion, gay rights, immigration.....those are red herrings, designed to make people think there's a big difference between democrats and republicans.
Feel free to continue to play along with the "divide and conquer" rhetoric. At least that part about being an American is still free.

Isn't she great? NOT. This is the same empty headed fruit loop who said that we needed to pass the healthcare bill to find out what was in it.

...I found out that, while they passed the budget bill and cut off extended unemployment benefits for people, they found plenty of money to give an extra $173 million to Israel for them to update their missile defense system, plus the $3.1 BILLION that we promised them.
We have nothing for our own, but a crap ton for a tiny sliver of warmongering sand somewhere far away.
