Just take this last item: In the last three years we have accumulated national debt at a rate more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our entire nation's history.

Over 27 times as fast. Metaphorically speaking, if you are driving in the right lane doing 65 MPH and a car rockets past you in the left lane 27 times faster, it would be doing 7,555 MPH!

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that you believe makes him so brilliant and impressive?
Can't think of anything?
Don't worry. He's done all this in 29 months -- so you'll have about 5 months to come up with an answer.
Every statement in this email is factual and directly attributable to Barack Hussein Obama.
Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable.

EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS.
I WONDER HOW MANY WILL FORWARD THIS?

The oil scam was planned ...

HIGH OIL PRICES is the reason for higher prices at the grocery store.

HIGH OIL PRICES is the reason millions lost their jobs.

HIGH OIL PRICES is the reason millions lost their savings.

HIGH OIL PRICES is the reason millions lost their homes.

HIGH OIL PRICES caused hundreds of thousands of small businesses to close their doors.

With hundreds of thousands of businesses closing and millions of people losing their jobs, city and state tax revenues declined and that created more lost jobs and services.

NOTHING has changed since Bush Jr took office and oil was $25 a barrel. The world is swimming in oil and U.S. bankers know that and so does all of our elected officials in Washington DC.

Phony excuses such as hurricanes, potential hurricanes, tropical storms, potential tropical storms, repeated idle threats from North Korea, Iran, and Venezeula were used to raise oil prices. Their favorite catch-all excuse was ((( MIDDLE EAST TENSION ))).

OPEC has absolutely nothing to say about oil prices. Go to their site and you will see advertisements that guarantee profits on oil investments.

The more money pumped into oil .. the higher the prices MUST go to satisfy those guarantees.

Oil prices are controlled by U.S. oil speculators/bankers to satisfy their investors.

The president has nothing to say about oil prices. He takes his orders from the federal reserve because they believe they own this country including your homes, autos, and YOU.

Obama should be booted just for trying to force his socialist agenda on us but Romney ( a Bush new world order stooge ) isn't the answer either. Nothing will change with either in the White House.

If they cross their bosses they are afraid that they will be shot in the head and if they go along with their bosses they get richer.

Ron Paul isn't afraid.
