STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPP … There has been a shift in the House, Congress and the White House for only like a week now. Let’s just see how he does.
EDIT: All this kool-aid stuff is so unoriginal.
Also, why are you comparing a presidential race to a mass *******? It is not logical.
Who started that anyway? Probably Bill O’Reilly (OH REALLLLY)

Work that produces something you can get money for ir. Government workers produce NOTHING! not even a pencil!
25 thousand new job in government was created, bureaucrats are voting their pay and the rest must pay for their 4 day work week.
Just ask, in DMV 80 % minorities can work ONLY 4 days a week.

Hey ART, You are a minority.
You and your fellow Neanderthal thinking friends that voted Bush in 2 times are to blame.
Do you think the country is in better shape now than when Clinton handed it over?
Bush, Cheney and their oil buddies are all rich as hell and you want to blame Obama already?
The world has changed, Bush and friends, (Paulson) ripped off 700 billion dollars for what? Another failure.
