"For President, Five Programs, One Tired Message"

Obama said nothing new and saying it five times doesn't improve it.
He is losing the debate, mostly because he either has no ideas or isn't going to share them, it is too bad for America...

Barack Hussein Obama's sideshow tour of US television was a distraction that said nothing new. He is actively working to destroy America so he can control it totally and completely.

It is the cynical most nefarious strategy in American history.

The founding fathers wrote the 2nd amendment with this man in mind.

Well, actually, Basil, they wrote it with King George in mind.

@7 Exactly. and President Barack Obama is exactly like an 18th century British monarch. Can't you tell by his regal attitude? President Barack Obama clearly only has the interest of the aristocracy in mind. Why else would President Barack Obama try and heap upon us all of these so called "benefits" for the "regular American citizen"? It's all a ploy by President Barack Obama to funnel as much power into the executive office as he can.

Shame on you, President Barack Obama.
