Desperate, Divisive, Deceptive, Disgusting. The Manchurian President.
Are there some who don't like a black president?? I am sure there are, but not me. I dislike his policies, his arrogance, his elitism, his rhetoric, his view that money the government spends is the government's not the taxpayer's, that those who are opposed to his opinions aren't worthy of having an opinion, his belief that big government is the end all be all, and his attempts to disguise power plays as "for the people."
