All lies, lies and more lies.

Obama fixed all of this, just like he created all of those shovel ready jobs and sent us all of that free money.

Quit picking on him... he be taking care of us.

Drive out to the McMansions in the farms fields and even more are empty.

I liked it better when they were growing tomatoes, peppers, and other good things out there instead of empty houses.
