Virtually all polls show the citizens of this country are right of center and conservative leaning. Even a majority of people who self-identify as 'Independent' poll as conservative. Soooooo...
Here's what Mr. Obama has to say about us:
Mr. Obama, during his private pep talk to Democrats, recognized Mr. Owens's election and then posed a question to the other lawmakers. According to Representative Earl Blumenauer of Oregon, who supports the health care bill, the president asked, "Does anybody think that the teabag, anti-government people are going to support them if they bring down health care? All it will do is confuse and dispirit" Democratic voters "and it will encourage the extremists.

So there it is. The president of the United States thiinks the conservative majority in this country (conservative by virtue of their belief in limited federal government as delivered by our founders and detailed in the US Constitution), are 'teabag, anti-government people'.
Sad, really sad.
And this is surprising how? Didn't he already make a remark about us being the ones that cling to our Bible and our guns? I am quite convinced that he hates America and hates Americans and anyone that doesn't like government or government interference.

No surprise at all. Just yet another reminder. Reminders are good as some voters have real short memories. ;)
Well he is right about one thing, I am definately against this current Government administration.
