Compilation, just as all of you republican bullheads think, you are wrong! We gave you the White House and the Congress, and look what you let happen. You put us in a war for no reason and with no exit strategy. You did not prepare for our veterans coming home and treated them like homeless people. You did not give them what they needed to win the war. You let our economy go to shambles. You would have quickly taken credit if the economy was good.

Bottom line is that now our country needs to heal! We don't need a bunch of people going around talking and saying bad things. I am sure that you are one of those people who believe that there is no way Obama can turn around this country. No matter what a person has to accomplish, they first have to believe that change is possible.

I hope that you will at least give hope a chance. If not, then you are lost!
