  1. He didn't name himself a Messiah. All our relatives were immigrants, except mine because I'm Cherokee. Enumerate these taxes. The Messiah kept us from more unemployment while Conservatives decried the price of the stimulus, which was whittled down to appease "bipartisanship." Welfare programs are keeping one half of all US children fed, and ten percent of us afloat for now. Name one U.N. sell-out. Copenhagen produced no accord. Obama expanded permits for concealed carry inside National Parks, which are socialist institutions. Gas is not expensive because of who the President is, that's obtuse. He's been in office for five days shy of a year. The Networks are under authority of the FCC, if you don't like it then move to a place with unregulated airwaves and let your kids watch porn on TV all day. Abortion is a legal medical procedure for a woman who does not want to carry to term, and men have no place in that debate. And nobody is reinstituting the Fairness Doctrine. this is typical right-wing conspiracy theory nonsense, the kind of stuff it's easy to get Neo Nazis and John Birchers and Businessmen to all get behind because it's nonsense.
