At an economic town hall meeting a woman named Velma raised more than just President Obama’s eyebrows when she admitted to him that she is one of his middle class supporters who is exhausted and deeply disappointed in him right now. Velma Heart wants to know if this is her new reality…..
You don’t feel the change since Obama’s been in office?
{ 87 comments… read them below or add one }
She is absolutely right.
This woman is dumb as hell. She doesn’t feel it? SHE HAS A JOB! Does she think fiscal policies take immediate effect..Looks like fat bitch is eating just fine..somebody tell her to sit down..
She has a point, STFU Paul J you sound ignorant.
Obama just a puppet he not running this country nor changing it by himself
We set you free, give you welfare, let you dunk basketballs, put KFC’s everywhere and You Niggers STILL Aint happy? Damn! We even let one of you niggers run the country for a little bit.
sit down person (man or woman). im sure i can speak for everyone on this site when i say…We hate you and you’d never say these things if you weren’t behind a computer screen, a keyboard, or where in the presence of any predominantly minority neighborhood (whether it be upper, middle or lower class).
I would love to meet you. What is your address?
@ Chun
Oh goodness. This woman is just fine. Two kids in PRIVATE SCHOOL. C’mon now. Beans and Hot dogs? C’mon son. Thats the state of our nation today. We have SO Much that we complain about Everything. If she was lower class, it’d be one thing. But she’s Solid Middle Class. She’s going to be just fine. Just Fine. She hasn’t lost her job. She can’t Not Find a job. She’s not in danger of losing her house. What the hell is she so “exhausted” about? I just don’t understand.
uuh your saying that because she has a bit of money she’s fine and doesnt get to complain about anything?
Basically.
She has a forum to talk with the president and says that garbage?
puhlease.
Theres 100000 better questions she could ask but instead she hops on some whiney soapbox about how life is so hard for her employed self and her husbands employed self. Its hard sending their kids to private school, they’re living the tough middle class life.
C’MONSON!
Agree 100%! I don’t even understand why the hell she got up to speak! How about the ppl who have actually lost their jobs and are REALLY in dire straights, SMDH @ this woman!
One more thing. Everybody wants something for specifically Them. She doesn’t have a credit card? Not one at all? Really? Please. She’s just fine.
Actually, she admitted to Chris Matthews that she does have a credit card. She lied.
Middle class families sacrificing for their kids is not a new phenomenon, by the way. What is it about her situation that she needs Obama to improve. Hell, tax rates are the lowest they have been since WWII. Everyone is still in the fantasy world where bills don’t have to be paid. The nation has huge bills and we need to start paying them – and those debts were not created Jan.20th 2009.
Bring our soldiers home! That’s what I voted for!
Fuck Obama! I’m an MBA student and there are no jobs out here. I much rather george bush than this wishy washy uncle tom. FYI im black

aleis –
Your take on this is raw /uncut, but i must say I agree with you. Especially the part where you say Make One! If you are going to school for an advanced degree just to be a corporate slave for someone else in this economy – u are not very smart.
damn…i was going through it this morning
sorry GettingITin….
but serious….
You are dumb as hell? Did you get work experience before your MBA or did go straight after college? Are you taken advantage of the tax credits for college students that PRESIDENT OBAMA put in place? Let me guess you feel entitled to any job you want because you are about to get your MBA? Get off lifefiles and go look for a job dummy! It’s competitive out there. Let me guess you still think you deserve your 40 acres and a mule. GTFO!!!
MBA and can’t get a job or Career? Do not blame you not applying yourself on Obama. Stop using him as a scapegoat. It is sad that you have the credentials that you have and you lash out like you are a uneducated,backwoods, inbred cunt. And i doubt you are or have what you say. You prob just Heard MBA today on this vid.
it is hard that’s why, by the grace of God I had to create a job for myself.
While I appreciate thelifefiles being one of the only forums where I can get my Prez Obama and Lady Gaga. Some of these folk should not be allowed to speak on politics.
Shut it!
There’s been no change with Obama, it’s been politics as usual….but I didn’t expect anything great from him, and that’s why I didn’t vote for him. FYI: I’m also black. Hillary Clinton should have been our President.
What is the “FYI: I’m black” portion of this message supposed to do?!? Does it really matter?
He probably mentioned it because as soon as someone opposes Obama, the assumption is automatically made that they must be white and racist.
I agree he can do NO Wrong in their eyes because the black people are the one that are more racist then the white. Because they keep bringing the color up. Get over it; we have a half Black president now. You all need to stop dwelling on the passed and try to improve your future. Your life will be what you make from it.
I don’t like the JOB Obama is doing; he is still acting like he is running for president. He got the position! Now he need to start working for the money that we are paying him , and stop spending taxpayers money on lavish vacations, especially when the whole Country is drowning. I am sick of his Sales Pitches, motivational talk, all that is BS , He is definitely not a Closer, If he was , Why did he bend over to the Republicans , and give them everything they ask for, He was not man enough to close the deal e , We all know that he is Homosexual, because of the guy from his church in Chicago that exposed him that “HE HAD SEX WITH OBAMA”, but you don’t bend over that way, Be a Closer, Stop BS..ig Us. The same Guy that was going to write a Book that he had sex with Obama, before you know; he didn’t finish his book and Die. Now read this & give me your opinion on that: LIAR PRESIDENT!
It’s our money Millions of dollars down the drain for idiots and liar’s like them. I am sure lot of you remember during campaign, she was telling us that she is a Target Shopper, comparing herself to Mc Cains wife, and she know how so SAVE money for her family and for our Country, Unlike Mc Cains wife The Gold dress cost $250K plus diamonds. But at least Mc Cain’s wife bought the dress with her own money; she didn’t need to still the money from our taxpayers. And I know they will not try to bankrupt the USA , & taking trips to all different Countries and opening personal accounts all over Europe and China, because they come from Money, they know how to handle, themselves around money are Intelligent that they don’t have to keep trying to prove themselves, or even unable to balance the Budget because Billions of Dollars are MISSING UNEXPLAINED. That’s a SHAME! That’s what happens when you give a Position to a LIAR!
@ the end of the day you can not satisfy everyone. There is no such thing as the perfect President. There has not been one from the beginning all the way till now. Many have came close but they were assassinated. Before he ever served his 4 terms people already hated him. If you ask anyone of those Teabaggers why they do not like Obama or what Obama is doing wrong. They would not be able to answer those question without including socialist, Islamic monkey.
Now another vacation Hawaii and why don’t they fly the whole family together after his Wednesday meeting, Why doe’s the Ugly wife Gorilla face wife has to go to Hawaii on Saturday and he will be joining her 3 days latter. THAT IS EVIL & EXTORTIONIST! They are telling us to tighten up or belts and save money, but they are spending OUR money like Crazy. It’s costing US $750.000.00 each time just to lift Jet off ground Plus the security and all other expenses, with them It’s like flying to Hawaii TWICE in one week. How many jobs can we create with these millions of $$$$$.$$$$$

Obama could light a puppy on fire and the majority of black people would still try to defend him for doing it. Sad but true.
i guess I should take note that you didn’t lump all black people together,
So i’m guessing that If Bush or Palin lite a Puppy on fire the majority of White People still try to defend them for doing it for doing it.
No. I personally haven’t witnessed white folks vehemently stand behind someone solely because the color of their skin. Many people that voted Obama into office knew nothing about politics- they just knew he was a black man and wanted him in regardless. I am black. Most of my friends are black. Several of them know nothing about Obama’s policies and platform yet they actually registered to vote and went out and did it just to get one of “us” in the white house. You can’t tell me that shit isn’t true because if you are black, you know what I’m talking about right now.
Ok and your point is what? Are you implying that John McCain and Sarah Palin were a better pick for the job and that black people over looked this because they wanted a black man in office? Obama was not the first black man to run for president. And it took more than the black vote to get him elected. So even if blacks voted for him just because of the color of his skin, he clearly was still the better candidate.
My point is that ANYTHING Obama does (or doesn’t do), the majority of black people get behind him whether they truly agree with him or not… It’s the nigga complex A.K.A the “We’re In This Together” complex.. Yall go ahead and cheerlead for the nigga but he hasn’t done shit as far as I’m concerned. I think Hilary Clinton, or even Ron Paul would have made a better president. Obama is a good speaker. That’s about it.
I can also tell you that millions of whites voted for McCain/Palin simply because Obama is black. But I guess that doesn’t matter, right? And again I ask, why do douche bags like you always throw in your comments “I’m black” like that’s supposed to validate your ignorant ass opinion. It doesn’t.
Furthermore, blacks (and whites and Jews) were killed, spat on, intimidated, taxed, humiliated and called everything but a child of God in an effort to keep them from voting, their tax-paying RIGHT. So if a black person chooses to vote based on race, sex, tie color, endorsements or because Oprah will give them a car, then dammit they have the right to. If you don’t like those rights, then move to Cuba and work it out over there.
You are clearly one of the people I am talking about. Ignorant cunt.
LOL@mega
Bitter much?? Were your wittle feelings hurt?? LMAO.
Nah- not bitter, you just validated what I was saying. Idiots like you feel that it’s ok to vote someone into office based on insignificant things like race, sex and tie color versus their competency…..what a stupid sack of shit you are. Go die in a fire.
Well like you said some. Why are acting like they are the majority. Your friends are not the majority of black people.. Maybe you should change your friends cause they sound like idiots, but at the same time you are your company you keep.
And maybe you should go back to school and learn how to put sentences together. Just sayin’
Go back to school? Nah I’m sorry, I’m finish with school. Sorry did not check what I wrote before I pressed submit. But still back to the point you were trying to avoid which is you getting a new circle of friends, and thinking the majority of blacks voted him in cause he is black (half).
Stop making assumptions based on the individuals around you or what you hear or see in the media. Cause you just make yourself look simple no matter how smart you might try to look on here or convince yourself you are.
Are you “finish” with school, or are you “finished” with school?
Shiiiit’d! You may not have witnessed it but it does happen! Especially if you work for the gov’t!!!! They stick together whether wrong or right! And you better believe if some shyt go down, they’re going to throw YO ASS under the buss before they throw themselves. And that’s just real. They may not speak on it like we do, but trust! They definitely still support one another anytime you have one set of people with one rules and another set of people with another rules…who are they doing it for? It’s surely not for the minority.
Wall Street must be full of niggas then…
Oh…wait,,,,never mind.
I feel you to an extent, Mega.
But, your comment about Ron Paul loses me.
You think Ron Paul would do better, but he wouldn’t. You say with certainty he would, but you don’t know. His ideas are not practical; he has no lobbying support. He spouts off certain eccentricities that neither the moderate left or moderate right will support. Yea, I know you like him. He’s like an black guitar playing angst ridden musician. Nice to look at and hear for something different, but chances are, mainstream is not going to latch onto him.
Maybe some of these black people don’t know who he is and can’t argue his merits with you… but this black person can. I dislike that people voted for Obama bc he was black, and I dislike the Poor Us complex that is used a little too often sometimes. But, all in all, I like Obama. I am sorry you don’t, but respect your opinion.
In a nutshell…
Ron Paul – strong, consistent, traditional conservative (classical liberal) with small ‘l’ libertarian leanings, a terrific understanding of the Constitution and the limits it imposes on the federal government, and extremely knowledge on the economy and fiscal responsibility.
Barack Obama – a voting record that reflects an extreme left wing viewpoint, very strong socialist/marxist leanings, a demonstrated disdain and willingness to ignore parts of the Constitution he doesn’t like, a desire to greatly expand the liberty-choking nanny state, and a poor understanding of the economy and the consequences of over-taxation and centralized control of the same.
“Go die in a fire.”
THAT’S your response?!? You pseudo political pundit and your xenophobic comments can suck my voter registration card. Fu*king political thug…are you going put a hex my voting booth next?? Honestly….Laughing Out Loud.
All things considered, I found it completely appropriate. If you also condone voting someone into office without merit I offer you the same advice. Laugh out loud all you want- truth is you are part of what is wrong with this country.
Thanks for correcting my gramar and eluding the point. Hey can you fix my spelling of gram…forget it.
LOL no problem man.
Oh yeah, I would have rather had Hillary over Obama.
Obama can’t do it all. What are you doing to change your community? Are you working to create programs or give back? I get tired of people expect Obama to be Jesus. Get involved yourself.
Politics is politics no matter who the president is. Get on your grind and do the best you can to take advantage your on situations around you. You already know that its a competitive job market in pretty all fields now so you gotta do what you can to be the most competitive applicant.
During the last decade a lot of “everyday” people accumulated a large amount of false wealth through the real estate bubble and the phony stock market. Then the economy collapsed and the truth came out. The wealth disappeared over night and folks are back to being average Joe’s. These are the harsh new realities that the excessive greed of the past has caused. Now people want a president who can magically fix the economy in a flash and restore their wealth without it affecting their spending sprees, fabulous homes, irresponsible financial choices and gazillion dollar jobs. But it simply can not work that way. Rebuilding the economy is going to take time and sacrifices that the entitled American public just doesn’t want to make. This is not Obama’s fault and any other president would have the same issue. Change has come and it’s here to stay, sadly it’s just not the change that most Americans imagined or wanted.
{APPLAUDING}
EXACTLY!!! People are so impatient, they have forgotten what happened in the last 10 years. Economists are calling the past ten years the “lost decade”. We as a nation adopted policies that were not in favor of the nation as a whole. Only a selected few were able to prosper, some those people gained their wealth through fraud. The policies adopted in the last ten years were not in favor of the American Middle Class. But yet again, many Middle Class Americans want the current President to fix things within two years while it took ten years to dismantle the fabric of the U.S. economy as we used to know it. Please people use your common sense.
Exactly. But, you need to go back more than 10 years. The jobs started leaving this nation under Reagan. What we are experiencing now is the culmination of Reaganomics. Bust the unions, drive down wages, allow wealth to coalesce into ever fewer hands at the top. The creation of a Ruling Class is what the modern conservative movement has been working towards. A bunch of fascists is what they are.
**Tapping the mic** Mega…Mega…a very INTELLIGENT comment has just been made….where are you???
We need to stop relying on man and look to God. The goverment is for themselves thats just how the world is now.
BTW that lady was probably a plant, either that or just one of rest of the self involved Americans.
But what if there is not God? Then what?
No*
Bottom line is, America is fucked up, don’t expect it to recover so soon as most of the people though.
Obama didn’t run to be a SuperHero – he ran as Pres of the United States. People need to stop asking him to save them. Save yourself! My advice – if the tuition is too high – put the kids in a public school since you pay taxes for them anyway. Then do your job at home – saves money and goes a long way.
If the above does not ring true – I can always say “Nice plant” GOP , TeaBaggers, etc.
I do not know why people bought into that change bullshit anyway.
Capitalism isn’t going to change.
Things were bad before Obama became president. I think people need to give him time to fix our last president mess. Things are not going to change over night.
That chuckle & smirk Barack had on his face when Velma started going in on him was classic.
I kinda don’t want Obama to run for re-election because it’s going to be a farce. People expected him to come into office and fix everything quickly then walk on water in his spare time. Like that lady in the clip, I’m tired of defending him too and I’m starting to see that this government thing seems pointless. Nothing ever gets done and the poor stay poor while the rich remain rich. I can’t fathom why I live a country that can tell a woman what to do with her body, tell two gay people they can’t get married, tell scientists they can’t use stem cells for research when it could save lives, and then lie about global warming. And why the hells can’t the Muslim people build a community center where ever they want as long as they can pay the property taxes??!? This ish is fixed…(burning my birth certificate in 5….4…3..)
Go find another country then.
PS: They wont be as good as this one.
PSS: Stop complaining.
PSSS: I’m the same “anonymous” from reply #2 that thinks the video lady is complaining too much.
Obama is no coward and WILL run again, weather her gets re-elected or not. There will be no running away and disappearing to appease anybody. Who gives a dam if the political discussions pull people out of their comfort zones. We’re a decade into the new milenium and shit has got to be faced HEAD ON!
I can complain!!! And hell naw I’m not finding another country…we’ve put too much in this one to just roll bounce. I’ll continue to complain and vote for the candidates who lie the best to me.
YOU haven’t put that much into the country to “roll bounce”. YOU’ve been alive 20, maybe 30 something years. YOU haven’t done that much to be acting like this place is all that bad. No gay marriage? No Stem Cell? No global warming discussion? YOU go and fix it.
But I’d like to put it quite coherently: when you try to get on a soapbox about it, don’t bring up ‘burning your birth certificate’ because I know 249570272049720497502497502475 people who’d switch places with you.
Time for me to “Roll Bounce”
First: I PAY taxes, VOLUNTEER in my community, and VOTE in local/national elections. I keep abreast of issues and contribute to causes/non-profits I believe in. So yes, I’ve MADE a contribution to this cesspool of a society.
Second: I made a flippant comment regarding the bottomless pit of American politics on a whole and government in particular and you took it totally left field.
Third: You’re damn skippy I’m going to climb on my soapbox about it…because I CAN.
YOU SAID IT BEST!!!!!
Obammie said “everyone is hurting.” The banksters have been getting filthy rich and still have the trillions they stole from us. I’m sure they are not part of “everyone.”
Bottom damn line, hate to beat a dead horse, but he has to clean up all of Bush’s garbage, and that is not an easy feat. This man is doing all that he can. Sometimes whats good isn’t always popular, but it might actually be the right thing to do. I know alot of folks are now very impatient, because they want change now. However, this is one man, dealing with war,economy,healthcare,foreign policy, Bush leftovers, man made oil spills, disasters, unemployment. Do u really think he can do all of this with the blink of an eye.
He’s passed a healthcare bill, he’s saved jobs, and is now trying to figure out ways to create new ones. Cut the man some slack. When 95% of the presidents of this country have all been caucasion, you’re damn right it’s a special moment for blacks to see a black man in office, thats articulate and here to get the job done. I would’nt be suprised if that woman was a plant. Either way he’s done a good job to me. I was getting impatient to. I understand that people are like i have this and that and even i can’t find a job. It’s rough for everyone.
About the Nigga thing Ignorance is Bliss, The TeaParty Need I Say More. Exactly.
That loopy thing Palin is still running around for what reason ? She won’t be running nothing but her mouth. All she does is babble about a bunch of nothing.
I’m confused as to why people are looking to ONE MAN to wipe the slate of America entirely clean…we don’t give the good Lord this much PRESSURE and he’s THE LORD! So before you start to bash Obama, think about what you can do YOURSELF to better your situation and remind yourself, he’s only ONE MAN! HUMAN MAN, NOT A GOD! It’s not like he’s running this country alone. For every one person that’s for him, there’s another 10 people against and some are on his STAFF! He has to work with what he has..
I agree with a lot of the folks on here that I too believe that Obama has done the best that he can with what he’s been able to accomplish. Everyone should realize that he, along with other Democrats, has tried to implement several positive changes, even some ideas that were originally proposed by the same Republicans that vehemently oppose everything that he attempts… allow me to repeat that for clarity — The Republicans have opposed EVERYTHING that Obama has tried to do since Day 1. They don’t want him to succeed at anything… in fact, they’d prefer that he fails at everything that he attempts; simply so they can point out all of his flaws and missteps, in an attempt for them to reclaim power and re-impose all of the failed policies of the Bush Era and then some.
Really?! That would help us how? That’s good for the average American on Main Street in what way?
The Republicans are in it for themselves first, their constituents second and everyone else can go to hell, as far as they’re concerned.
In my 33 years on this planet, this is actually the first time in my life that I’ve felt that we finally have someone in office that represents the best interests for us all… not just black Americans, white Americans, or any other race specific group of Americans, but ALL AMERICANS. No, we might not be able to see immediate changes in the Economy, Healthcare, Education and the War, but, I sincerely believe that Obama is taking the proper course of action in each of those areas to not only help us but also our kids and our kids’ kids, for generations to come.
No other President has had to deal with as much as Obama has, EVER, in the history of our great Nation. Yet, we expect him to resolve everything that we’ve been up against for a decade in the span of 2 years? Does that seem fair to you?
Not only that, it’s been an entire uphill battle from the Right-wing Conservatives, Tea Partiers’ and flat out racists since the beginning of his term, who have bombarded him with false claims, questioning his every move and denying his following moves, using slanderous statements, hateful remarks and outright disrespect the whole time. (Fox News, anyone?) All of which he’s handled with an abundance of dignity, patience and class, by the way.
His detractors should fall back and let the man do his job. In 2012, if you still feel that he hasn’t served us well, then take your concerns/complaints to the voting booths. Until then step back and kindly STFU.
Ya know… I truly think this “negro” was planted their by the tea party(lower case on purpose) that’s bullshit to me 6 ways to Sunday… 8 years of blundering fuck ups! Criminal conduct and “hooking up” your oil and contracting buddies, creating a VERY false war for profit and gain… the list goes on. One question… What would our economy and unemployment rate be in the US right now if there had never been a war??….Think about it?? and one last thought… define irony; An african-american tea party participant. Think about it, cause they are very much out there…massa!
One-
I think that bipartnership vibe (though honorable) is what screwed him up. He needed a lil Bush in him, your the president oo what you feel will help America.
I read all of the comments here and I have to add: Mega, I think your point is great and I think those disagreeing with you are missing it entirely. Here is what I get out of it, and I also agree with you on — First of all, white people are constantly told they are racist. I have more black in my family than white, but I do not look black in any way, so white people speak freely in front of me, not knowing that I am actually a black woman. I can tell you that, while there are some racists, most white people are not from what I have seen. I think white people are tired of being called it all the time, though, and feel like they must constantly prove otherwise. I have decided, in my own life, to live by a certain standard when it comes to racism. If I put the word “white” in front of an act/statement, etc., and it would be considered racist if I used it in that context, then it IS racist and it should not be used. For instance, Black Entertainment Television — White Entertainment Television would be considered racist, so I do not watch BET, EVER. NAACP — same context. So when a black person votes for a black president simply because he is black, then it is racist, plain and simple. On the other hand, gender is much more prevalent. Women are not a RACE, but a gender and make up 51% of the world population, yet have been enslaved more than any race could ever lay claim to, and still are, both in the US and abroad. No woman should ever be told she knows nothing about discrimination because she is an expert. We should be focusing on that, instead of race, and working to eradicate gender discrimination completely. In the meantime, I will not vote for a woman simply because she is a female. I did not vote for hillary and that’s a fact. Those who voted for Obama because of his race should reevaluate their morals and stop believing that everyone owes them, get off their butts and do something positive towards our race, like saying we are responsible for our actions, we don’t need permission to do anything within the limits of the law, We are equal to any other race and we don’t need to loot stores and riot when things don’t go our way (such as with Rodney King) because we are a moral, fair and non-racist race who needs to set the example.
reading these comments lets me know why this country is in such a bad state. why is it that only ppl w/o jobs get to complain about presidents chnges or lack there of? thats a terribly ignorant view on things. secondly as bad as it sound obama hasnt done shit since he’s been in office. ppl just voted for him because he was black and we are no better off. he promised to bring troops home and sent 100,000 more troops over there. but its ok cause he’s black. the double standars that we as blacks put on society is shameful. if the country was in the exact same state as it i now and bush was president, you would all be flippin!! i hate that my ppl are so shallow hipocritical, and just down right FOOLISH!!!
I wonder if this stupid woman is being paid the freaking TEA Party or freaking Glenn or some republicans to say this crap on the eyes of everyone. SHAME ON YOU WOMAN. I will pray for you so that God could forgive you. You need to be conciousness of yourself because you lose it.
OOOO PPOORR VELMA. She has a job, she got kids in private school.. and she expects the president to fix 8 years of bad BUSHNESS in less than 2 years… why dont she whine about the president not unclogging her drain, fixing her car, and pruning her trees. Seems like people take more opportunity to potshot the president nowadays… Send Velma to Iraq and let her take her message to the streets and see how she appreciates AMERICA then.
Listen to yourselves — ALL of you.
Think for awhile. George Bush and his staff led us into this mess. Pres. Obama and his staff are trying their best to lead us out. Let’s all get in there and pull together… let’s pull the whole damn country together… and we can move forward.
1. Increase taxes on the wealthy.
2. limit the control of corporations.
3. solve the immigration problem (some fines would do a lot to lessen the national debt).
4. reel-in the cost of government – lower pay for ALL government workers – lower benefits too.
How am I doing so far?
This boy Bill… damn he makin’ sense!
The problem with this is people are disappointed, the goverment take over of all the corporations, raising taxes causes companies to raise their prices on everything, i dont want to live in a socialist country that wants to make everyone get health insurance, if i dont want it, i should get that choice, i dont want a goverment telling me what kind of car to get or what color, thats what made america so great to have the freedom to choose. Alot of people are disapointed cause we all voted for change, but frankly what kind of change was he talking about? no freedom anymore? goverment ruling our everyday life. Freedom is one of the deepest and noblest aspirations of the human spirit.
Velma Hart,
Your question to President Obama was phrased in a very arrogant manner, especically since you chose to say…”and I want you to answer me honestly, Mr.
President…”. You forgot that he is the President of the United States? Are you just stupid ? Do you actually think President Obama can make the huge changes needed to put this country on the right path in 22 months? If you thought that “the peanut butter and cracker days were over” you were wrong. Now that you have been fired, you’ll be lucky to get that! Your arrogance cost you your job and your “middle class status.” You asked for it and you got exactly what you deserved. If you don’t like the job President Obama is doing- that’s one thing.
But you forgot He has way more POWER than you do. Now ,you just may have to stand in line for food like thousands of other Americans. You have only your disrespectful self to blame.
