@H2O MAN,
Calling Obama "progressive" is pretty ignorant.
Also, according to you, America has been on the cusp of death, staring blankly at at her ventilator, for years now. Let's face it: if America knows about Sara Palin, Glenn Beck, Scott Walker, the Koch brothers, the Bachelor, the last 15 Adam Sandler movies, and you, and yet hasn't yanked the plug on said ventilator, she'll be just fine.
