"I wish I could go back and be more uniting in my language," he said, Politico reported. "I didn't realize how really fragile the people were...

Whaaaaa? Is he saying that we'd all be better if we were united happily under The Won's lash?

Funny how those Mormons roll. They must have a different version of the bible or something.

We live in the age of, “the Wuss is King!”

Can’t he just ask Boehner out on an extended date to the other side of the planet or something.

He is an admitted alcoholic and supposedly doesn’t drink anymore.

There is no such thing as regrets because at the time it was exactly what you wanted.

Weird. Barry Soetoro doesn’t regret his part in it. I would have thought Barry was the sissy man between the two.

I’m still waiting to hear about this “Special Announcement” that would shock the United States. I do believe this was back in the fall of 2013.

I’ve said from the start, he is a Fake and a Fraud. Same mold as Geraldo Rivera.

Yep, he gave some good history lessons....Dems and liberals have seen to it to rewrite history books- and that is what kids are learning today...

Obama has set this country back 50 years...and he will never feel bad nor apologize for his role in it.

BS. He’s always been a little emotionally unstable. That’s just his way. Some men just get emotional easily.

I remember a few of his investigative journalist pieces to be extraordinarily good... whatever you think of his odd style.

He was calling out Soros before it was popular to call out Soros.

Sometimes it’s not rhetoric. Sometimes it is just plain truth. If they happen to overlap, it just means the issue is important.

Somebody has made him an offer he feels he cannot refuse.
