We love our country, run with it and don't look back. Good news is, there *can* be a president worse that Bush and Obama. A time when we can't fight back, so NOW is the time. I don't look back, I fight back.

I don't believe I said there was a drop in Liberal voters. chieftain Jun 2013 #19

And what do you suppose you're doing, given your willingness to excuse spying? DisgustipatedinCA Jun 2013 #43
