Dear TEA Party Republicans,
We know you want to get Obama out of office. It seems like you just want anyone but him. Like the College liberal in response to Bush. Liberals had the exact same mantra and just wanted change in 08, but did they get the change they were looking for? Ron Paul fans aren’t as willing to just elect anyone but Obama. If you nominate Rick Perry or Mitt Romney, you’re not going to get Ron...

The Bernanke Economy
Why do politicians call it the Obama economy? Dont they realize that banking regulation has been turned over to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and that it’d be more correctly labeled the Bernanke economy.

Do Neo-Cons read 1984 and say “That’s a great idea!”?
The only difference between Bush and Hitler is that Hitler was elected.
