The President, as he has many times, decries the American sprit. It is what makes us, what guides us. It is why we are The United States of America.

It's our ruling oligarchs who suck, and it grates a little when the spokesperson for the ruling oligarchs takes credit for the generosity and kindness of the American people. If our oligarchs were equally kind and generous, our nation would be much better off.

You may make your comments in GD.

This is a group, not a forum. Groups often serve as safe havens for members who share similar interests and viewpoints. Individuals who post messages contrary to a particular group's stated purpose can be excluded from posting in that group.
