Barack Obama
In reply to the discussion: Dear God... Our President needs us Now. [View all]hopemountain
(3,919 posts)71. he has chosen the high road
of integrity, dignity, and truth. it is damn lonely.
i am so glad to read here some of us willing to have his back (yes, this is a common phrase amongst my neighborhood and family).
he's wanting to do what is just for those who elected him. it's damn hard when he has a circus of clowns and coyotes and bigoted & insolent 3 year olds in the congress.
there are some of us who pray for our leaders every day.
thank you, sheshe2 for posting the pic. even though it is heart wrenching. those of us who have faced troubles know what it feels like. but to face such trouble for the entire country and alone?
p.s. and appreciation to those calling out the ugly haters.

I wish he could have stayed longer, he deserves a rest. But for most of us, work comes first.

That one... But the weariness and keeping faith made me cry... He'll do the right thing, always.

We can't even begin to imagine the incredible pressure and responsibility he must feel.

And he knows they are lying crooks, as well. They have more money than Obama, because they're crooks
