Biggest damage Obama did to this country was show that you could survive pretty nicely being unemployed, and convince everyone that they're a victim, and that all their problems are caused by someone else.


I think it started before that with the "everyone goes to college" track. Everyone is going to be a rocket scientist but we won't have anyone to build rockets. Resigning by text is a complete different problem.


Fight fire, save lives, laugh in the face of danger.

Stupid always finds a way.
