Isn't Obama's favorite saying "We won?"
How much corruption and bribery was used to get the Obamacare forced
through against the will of the people?

But you call that compromise.

Tea parties are against excessive taxes and spending. That's a new phenomenon.

They were legal. We discussed this endlessly here. The government
doesn't need a warrant to tap al Qaeda and if you call al Qaeda expect
them to listen in. It's worse now under Obama and it's still not an
issue. Who's complaining about it?

Wow, you aren't paying attention. Didn't Obama go six months without a
news conference? Did they ever respond to the Fox News question about
bribing a Senator with a job to not run again?

Your programed outrage is misplaced. Seem like Huffpo want's you to be
angry about legal wiretaps but happy about bankrupting our country
with a strongarmed health care takeover. This health care system is
wrong and most people know it. It's just a few that still thing it's
utopia.

Yeah! Wake up and see what's happening to your country man!
