I thought I was the only one who thought he could possibly be the anti-Christ…|||I hate when people like you do this. -.-|||apparently you never had a job to lose, find employment, own a home and pay a mortgage. Keep drinking the kool-aid.|||So Bush was a good guy? Oh my god!! Dumb...|||I sense a tint of sarcasm.|||He also:
1.) Refused to regulate Wall Street, possibly because he was elected by wall street.
2.) PROMISED to sign the G-bay camp closure bill... But didn't.
3.) PROMISED to abolish the Patriot Act... But didn't.
4.) PROMISED to reduce the number of poverty stricken citizens.... And didn't.
He's not the antichrist, and it's just stupid to say he's a communist, but he's still demonstrably a puppet president who is continuing the policies of the Bush era under the instruction of his financial sector friends. Our Prime Minister has done a lot of small positive things too, BUT she's also instituted a carbon tax and hideous laws violating human rights. Just because he's black, just because she's a woman, does not give them special consideration when in a position of such responsibility. They have been weighed and found wanting.
