Worst Speech Ever? »

President Obama I wanted you to lift me up. I was really hoping that finally I would feel what my wife feels, hear what my co-workers hear. I wanted to be inspired. I wanted reasons to get on board, reasons to join those other 84%. Today, you did not succeed. This entire country, Dems and [...]
