Now, most of them will also say that they usually vote Democrat, anyway, so that it really does not matter!
Now, here is what I believe about BHO. I think that he is a committed socialist. I believe he is entrenched in the Chicago style politics of punish your enemies and reward your friends. I believe he is one of the best liars that we have had in politics, lately. I also believe that he is over his head.
Now, with all of that I do believe that his "likeability" will get him back into office. He seems to be a good husband and father, he likes hoops and he can connect with people. But, I believe future generations will look back at his era and ask "what were they thinking"?

How many consistent months of private sector job growth have experienced under BHO's Adminstration?


"Punish your enemies? Reward your friends? Scratch my back and I'll scratch yours? ALL politicians look out for those who have been "with them" along the way. Think of Haliburton.


Best liar? Prove it.


Over his head? Over his head in what? The President doesn't do their job by themselves. How is BHO over his head?


BHO is the perfect response for a country who grew weary of the their perception of the GOP brand as depicted by GWB, Rumsfeld and Cheney. Their actions caused America's knee-jerk reaction to elect someone who is perceived to be politically left of center.

Obama gave KBR, a Halliburton subsidiary, a $568 million no-bid contract back in 2010. He gave them a contract 20,000 times the maximum he said he would allow. Here's what he said in 2007:

“I am in this race to tell the corporate lobbyists that their days of setting the agenda in Washington are over. I have done more than any other candidate in this race to take on lobbyists — and won. They have not funded my campaign, they will not run my White House, and they will not drown out the voices of the American people when I am president.”

Obama’s team promised: “End Abuse of No-Bid Contracts: Barack Obama and Joe Biden will end abuse of no-bid contracts by requiring that nearly all contract orders over $25,000 be competitively awarded.”

In 2008, Obama was the top recipient of campaign donations from KBR employees, receiving more than $20,000 from them.
