You know, I'm so envious of Democrats in deep blue areas... [View all]

Ok ok, I get it, not everyone in the US loves President Obama. Not everyone liked FDR. I can accept that. What's hard to accept is minding my own business and not bringing up politics or his name, and trying to get along with people like my neighbor, who brought his name up out of the blue. WTF. I'm trying hard to get along with this man, and he brings up President Obama, in a negative way. He saw quickly I did not agree by my facial expression, and changed the subject. Smart man, in this instance.

Go Prez ! Go Dems ! GOTV 2014 !
