More Christians have blown up Americans then Muslims. Let's start spying on Christians and start with the person who wrote that treasonous crap.

When he took office, the country was losing hundreds of thousands of jobs a month, the stock market was in freefall and the GDP was shrinking. Several of the measures below show the country pulling out of this recession during the first 6 to 18 months of his presidency and then performing well above average performance after that point. In many cases, his overall average performance is impacted significantly by the first initial months.<br /><br />Given that caveat, during President Obama's first term and the portion of his second term that has elapsed thus far, the economy has performed worse than average for GDP growth, job creation, median income and debt. <b>However, the performance of the stock market has been spectacular. It is also important to put the economic performance in global context. During President Obama's presidency, the United States' GDP growth has beat the GDP growth of the other original NATO member countries by the widest margin of any president since World War II."</b><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://politicsthatwork.com/economic-record-president/obama" rel="nofollow">SOURCE</a><br /><br /><br />Can you tell us how the Republicans in Congress since 2010 have worked with the president to get the GDP doing better? Tell us how they've compromised with Mr. Obama to help the average American? What's that you say? The Republicans vowed to OBSTRUCT Mr. Obama in EVERYTHING he tried to do?<br /><br />Then it is a freakin' miracle that we've done as good as we have when the Goopers' strategy was to sabotage anything the president did so that he wouldn't get another term.<br /><br />What patriotic people, those Republicans. Willing to make Americans suffer. And suffer. So that they could be triumphant in their obstruction of everything Mr. Obama did.<br /><br />Tell me, skud, who would want to have anything to do with a political party as cynical and corrupt as that.<br /><br />The GOP has a 9% approval rating as of now. Herpes is more popular than the GOP.<br /><br />And to top that off, their nominee for the POTUS is a thin-skinned narcissistic fraud.<br /><br />I understand Trump has invited the convicted rapist, Mike Tyson to speak at his GOP convention in Cleveland. <br /><br />Have a nice summer!Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-38451820641623715752016-06-30T13:30:59.742-04:002016-06-30T13:30:59.742-04:00First of all skud, you're wrong:

Some keep complaining about how bad he is, but they're sticking by him..."<br /><br /><br />It appears nothing Trump does will deter them from voting for him. Trump's miserable record on marriage and fidelity doesn't bother them; Trump's miserable record on human decency -- insulting women, Latinos, Hispanics, African-Americans, Native Americans, the disabled, POWs -- doesn't dissuade them, even his fake Christianity doesn't bother them. It's really astounding. <br /><br />What we've learned is this: Some members of the religious right aren't so much devoted to their Christian values as they are devoted to their political ideology. That doesn't apply to all Christians, because there are more than a few who are true to their Christian values and have rejected Trump.<br /><br />The folks on the regular right wing blogs that we read, however, are not that sort of Christian. Trump's ascendency in the TGOP has revealed them to be, IMO, pseudo-Christians, as fake as Trump. I don't say that lightly, because I didn't like those same people questioning Mr. Obama's Christianity -- which they still to this day do, believing he's a "secret Muslim."<br /><br />Mr. Obama has been a Christian all of his adult life; he has been a faithful, loving husband and father, and is a man of "reasoned elegance and personal nobility." All of those attributes are valued by Christians, yet the TGOP right wing bloggers reject those values in Mr. Obama and embrace the absolute opposite of them in Donald J. Trump.<br /><br />The only conclusion one can deduce from that is that those folks are "sunshine" Christians; and when it was time to test the allegiance to their values, they took the politically expedient course and pledged their allegiance to what many people believe is a charlatan and a thin-skinned narcissistic fraud. I laugh when I read that some of those people point to Trump's family as proof that he's a "good" man, while totally rejecting that evidence of a "good man" in President Obama. <br /><br />I am not the only one who sees their sell-out to Trump as a sell-out to their professed belief in the tenets their Savior taught them. They chose Trump over Jesus. Let them live with that.<br />Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-61316456053497796542016-06-30T10:13:35.381-04:002016-06-30T10:13:35.381-04:00The question I have is this...

"People are really doing well with it and they're loving it."<br /><br />But the Times reports that at least 20 pages of the Institute's educational materials -- copyrighted in 2006 as the publication "The Billionaire's Road Map to Success" -- were taken from a little-known real estate text published by Success magazine in 1995, part of a series called "Real Estate Mastery System."</b><br /><br />You do realize that any negative report on Trump from any outlet other than Breitbart or FAUX NOOZ is suspect in the flinty minds of the rabid radical right wingers -- remember PolitiFact, FactCheck.org, and SNOPES are all run by Soros, according to them and, therefore, not to be trusted.<br /><br />Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-57634969355515444922016-06-30T08:38:04.935-04:002016-06-30T08:38:04.935-04:00More on Trump's unfavorability numbers.

A staggering 94 percent of black adults surveyed view Trump negatively, a 13 percent increase since the same poll was conducted in May.<br /><br />While Trump’s likely general election opponent, Democrat Hillary Clinton, is boasting a 79 percent favorability rating among black Americans, Trump is fighting claims of racism after launching attacks on a U.S.-born judge of Mexican descent.<br /><br />“I am not a racist, in fact, I am the least racist person that you’ve ever encountered,” Trump said to The Washington Post last week, defending his comments that U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel’s Mexican heritage creates a conflict of interest that prevents him from fairly presiding over a case involving Trump University.<br /><br />Those comments were met with scorn by both Democrats and Republicans, with Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) calling it 'textbook' racism."</b><br /><br />Yes. The Goopers have a real winnah in Donnie, haven't they? Who, except the rabid radical right wingers, like this loser? 60% of his own party does not support him!<br /><br />I'd like one of his supporters tell me how he wins a presidential election with the negative numbers he has with women, African-Americans, Hispanics and Latinos, Asians, AND A MAJORITY of HIS OWN PARTY.<br /><br />Can someone tell us how he'll win?<br />Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-90857786517575505892016-06-30T08:29:45.341-04:002016-06-30T08:29:45.341-04:00Yep, they hate him.
