Specify the blatant lies, please. I disagree with some democrat party beliefs or at least President wanting to give amnesty to all illegals. That I don't agree with. If I had gone to Mexico without documentation, I would be in prison....
I know there has to be a compromise between parties because we can't be a country split by partisan politics. It is supposed to be for the people, all the people. However, I am fed up with the hatemongers who say Obama is Muslim, not an American, in fact, hates America, the Birthers and so on. These silly things get repeated over and over by some of the not so bright population. I don't like the new Republican party that wants to take our country backwards to an earlier time in history where segregation was the norm, hate and bigotry were rampant and clearly there was no concept of equal rights. That is important as to feel good about myself, I have to care about others. I understand that we shouldn't have to support those who won't or can't support themselves. I am tired of all of our money going to other countries when we have so many hungry children in our own backyard.
But.....what kind of culture ignores the most needy in their population. I believe anyone who collects benefits thanks to the taxpayers should have drug tests; there are way too many cases of fraud and Gov't benefits are abused every day. We should weed out those freeloaders and put them to work for the state, and/or county. It would probably be more cost effective to hire investigators to get rid of all of the freeloaders,, but all the things you complain about was not created by President Obama so let's quit bitching and work together to leave a better planet for our descendants. Oh God, what a soapbox I am on.....I make myself sick so no smart ass comments.....just cut me some slack due to my age....
