...and that's why, son, if the election were held today, Obama would be re-elected despite the worst managed economic "recovery" in our history, supporting the takeover of previously American-Friendly, or at least neutral, Middle Eastern Nations by the American hating Islamic Brotherhood, and DOJ stonewalling investigations into why the US government armed Mexican drug cartels in "Fast and Furious".....
