36. It is not just about us!
Mon May 5, 2014, 11:51 PM
May 2014

The United Nations all nations are responsible to act. We are not alone. The US is not almighty God. This is a frigging world wide problem. Not soley a US problem.

You are right about one thing!

Fucking pathetic bunch of shits in the wheelhouse. But then, none of them are the daughters of Exxon execs.


Those shits are the ones that control our media, bought and paid for. That's why nothing is being covered here. No news is good news so they follow Fauxs example and regurgitate crap over and over, downed airliner ad nauseum!

As for your snark...

Shame on YOU, Barack Obama. Oh, wait...I can't say that here.


Sure hop up on that bandwagon, you can even call the President a POS and get away with it. New Rules I guess.

Let's try to stay focused here and not make this a bash the President thread!
