    I agree. Don't these people realize that Obama is ready to sell Israel down the river?

    is anyone else wondering why Jesse Jackson isn't on the steps of the capital denouncing President Obama's presidency because it was ans is bought and paid for by "HEIMEYS"?
    why isn't that radio host from Tennessee or where ever he's from publicly humiliating President Obama, the way he did that congresswoman who by the way was black, but a republican, by calling HIM a "PUPPET OF THE WHITE FOLK" simply because HE accepts money from "RICH WHITE FOLK"?
