It's all here is right!! This is such a vast list, that anybody who reads this and still thinks that Obama is our "savior", must be suffering from some sort of delusional psychosis. The talking points are followed by a link to confirming information, so you don't have to take anything at face value. Be certain to go to the article itself and click on READ to get additional data and information for each point. Lymerick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ By Josey Wales Many Americans today just feel that something is not right in America, something is just not right with our government, but they can’t put their finger on it. Well I felt the same way, so I have been searching for reasons why people may feel this way. Some folks have expressed that many people are abusive and demeaning to people who feel that something just isn’t right. I’ve had people say, “I can’t put my finger on it, but I can feel it in my stomach” Have you ever felt like this? If so, you may be in luck. Look what I found in my quest for the truth. In my quest for answers I stumbled upon ST Pete For Peace.org Website, and they have compiled a comprehensive list of actions that have taken place since Obama took Office and put their findings out on their web for all to see. Below is what I found at ST Pete For Peace.org.
