miraclemant, I hope you are right and on the next elections the American people wake up to their mistake in choosing Obama.
He is really taking America for a ride.
it is too bad the USA does not follow the lead of Honduras and reject socialism/marxism, but unfortunetly obama and his cronies are taking the USA down the slippery slope of marxism, and very fast at that.
with their national socialized health care now passing, more and more of what America has looked like for the past 200 plus years is quickly changing, and it is becoming more and more like europe, which is a very bad thing.
But I believe that the vast majority of the silent majority of people are starting to wake up and see what is happening, and in the upcoming 2010 elections there may be a huge swing of the party that is currently in power that is “fundementally changing America” as president obama stated.
mel & hugo who??
It is not importatnt that those 2 animals do not recognize anything, the killers that the resistance has unleashed in the country will be hunted down and dealt with, so they can pout all they want, Honduras has rejected socialism for many decades, and it is not going to stop now.
i am sorry to tell you, it was a lot of work but; mel and hugo are not going to reconnize your election ………………
