The right wing's relentless smears against Kerry is what brought me here. And I followed Obama's campaign from when he first started out. And I knew that the right wing wasn't going to give him an easy break even with the supermajority we had post 2008 and going into 2010. The right calling Obama a Kenyan and just screwing over everything Obama did fucked things up. The truth is - they created Obamacare, and they own it. They own this mess. And the lack of education in this country helped elect the biggest narcissistic psychopath this country has ever seen. A man who is single handedly capable of starting a nuclear war and at the very least will start World War 3. I don't think we'll ever be fully prepared for what lies ahead. The truth is I don't know with. None of us knows.
