Just take this last item:  In the last two years we have accumulated national debt at a rate more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our entire nation's history. Over 27 times as fast !!
Metaphorically speaking, if you are driving in the right lane doing 65 MPH and a car rockets past you in the left lane.
27 times faster, it would be doing 1,755 MPH!
[OVER 2  2/3rds  times THE SPEED OF SOUND  -pnf ]

THE PRESIDENCY
SOME WILL APPRECIATE THIS AND SOME WILL NOT.
HOWEVER,  ALL OF IT IS TRUE.
So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive?  Can't think of anything?  Don't worry.  He's done all this in 24 months -- so you'll have one year and ten months [5 mos. as of early June] to come up with an answer.
Every statement in this email is factual and directly attributable to Barrack Hussein Obama.   Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable.


EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS...
I WONDER HOW MANY WILL FORWARD THIS?

This is a test, it is October now,  you do the math and see how you stand.   Or will you wait for the lame steams snews to do it for you?
