I got out of the marine corps in mid 07 and after a few months getting settled (moving out of mom's house and getting a job and such taken care of in a crappy economy) I started reading up on all the election stuff and the man (obama) sounded so enlightened and so benevolent! he really wanted to take care of us all, to foster good will across the globe... and his methods of doing so were all laid out in his book "the audacity of hope" but I didn't understand the terms like "progressive", "third way", "community" and such. Once I DID research the partisan divide, socialism, fascism, corporatism, pragmaticism, zionism, islamicism, statism... it DID make sense. I understood that his intentions were to make the world a better place by not only FORCING america into socialism but by being the one world leader to actually make socialism work, instead of regressing the entire region into a fuedal system headed by a bureaucratic monarchy of sorts. what an idiot! to boot he plays identity politics non-stop and is anti-gun and almost as consistent a liar as joe biden.
