Yes, I agree with you that Obama was classy and stayed out of it, he did all the right things and has a lot of work to do. While the GOP is doing nothing but stirring up hatred and telling lies 24/7. The ones who started the circus on Holder were all GOP. There is a difference in the two parties. Sorry your man let you down on this one, you are so right to be angry at him. But is most of your area teaparty?

And that sound is the tears of thousands of Tea Baggers crying. sinkingfeeling Jul 2012 #1
