My words are not those of someone who didnt say it BEFORE he was nominated. If you did ANY research on his background you would find that he is and was always of this mind.

He and the congress have done nothing to change my mind in any way...fact is they are doing it quicker. Someday the pretty oratory will wear thin and folks will wake up !!!!

I also might add since you mentioned this...NEVER have I said anything about President Obama personally...NEVER. He is a smart and obviously articulate man but there is nothing in his background that would indicate he will be anything but what he is..a smart politician who believes in socialism !

I will say what I have been saying since the election...I pray I am wrong....do not think there is a chance I am...but if I am, I will be here saying mea culpa, but thus far not even a hint of anything that could not have been predicted !!!
