2. Sometimes It Costs Votes Also

I won't be casting a vote in the Presidential election this year, based on this issue alone.

President Obama has turned his back on promises too many times, but on this one, there is NO EXCUSE! Clearly he is just another leader who continues with the status quo.

Well, decisions have consequences, and I'm not going to just blindly hold my nose and forget about shit like this.

More proof that they're more alike than different. If * had been president and doing this, there would be an uproar. But since he's a Democrat, I guess that gives him a pass. So nice to have someone on your side, sticking a knife in your back, after they pretended to be your friend.
