The Obama Performance Record

Hello John: Hope you are doing well. Thought the following may indicate where we are headed and be of interest if you haven't seen this yet. My whole thought is the dog and pony show of voting is all a fraud to begin with and has been since day one. It wouldn't matter who they picked for the next puppet, the agenda remains the same. Not until the people of the world wake up will there be any real change and I believe that is now in progress. Unfortunately I think we will be the last to wake up if not too late already. We are living in the Twilight Zone on Steroids. Keep up the good fight. Blessings, Rod   The Obama Performance Record. After three years of Obama .. Here's your change -Very Interesting!

Can't think of anything?  Well, he did it all this in 33 months --  Every statement in this email is factual and directly attributable to Barrack Hussein Obama. Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable. EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS... I WONDER HOW MANY WILL FORWARD THIS? Dogs Just Know! And Now you know!   Have you ever heard that a dog 'knows' when an earthquake is about to hit?  Have you ever heard that a dog can 'sense' when a tornado is stirring up, even 20 miles away?  Do you remember hearing that before the December Tsunami struck Southeast Asia , dogs started running frantically away from the seashore, at breakneck Speed?  Do you know that dogs can detect cancer and other serious illnesses and danger of fire? Somehow they always know when they can 'go for a ride' before you even ask. How do those dogs and cats get home from hundreds of miles away?  I'm a firm believer that animals - and especially cats and dogs - have keen insights into the Truth.  And you can't tell me that dogs can't sense a potentially terrible disaster well in advance. Simply said, a dog just KNOWS when something isn't right... When impending doom is upon us.  They'll always try to warn us!  We should have listened. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XivhwO_zWWg -- " I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and the corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the People to whom it properly belongs" Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States in a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury, Albert Gallatin (1802). Does this not ring true?
