if you hadn;t noticed the republicans are a different party than Obama. its their job to oppose him. Obama has lied over and over again and his partisan statements in the Zimmerman case were disgusting.

Obama has lied over and over again and his partisan statements in the Zimmerman case were disgusting. never in US history has such inexperienced candidate been chosen to be president. presidents have been Army Cheifs, governors or very senior senators with decades of experience. Obama was what? A junior senator who had once edited the Harvard Law review and then suddenly he is president?
