Corrupt Public Servants and Corrupt Media...Sold America to the Highest Bidder...
I'm preaching to the choir again ..(I know) but it is so frustrating... right wing talk radio and corrupt public "servants" who sold us down the river.

Obama could change this with a pen stroke... bring our jobs HOME!!
