In reply to the discussion: Obama, how DARE you cave on tax cuts for the rich & then raid Social Security to pay for them [View all]heaven05
(18,124 posts)74. you
all have your knives out to do our President in, there has been nothing put on paper to sign or veto by him. All of you, your loyalty STINKS! I am getting weary of watching all these fires and woe is me memes. God, all of you are so pitiful asking for betrayal so you can say "I told you so"! Grow up!
