“fuck no.
He almost doubled our national debt. won’t let us drill oil.
pulling money out of everyone’s pockets and shit.”
Seriously? He didn’t “double” our nations debt. During George Bush Jr’s time in presidency, he raised the debt ceiling 7 times. Before Bush took office, the national debt was about $5.7 trillion and when he left, it more than doubled. The cumulative total for Bush’s policies from his entire two terms in office was equivalent to $5.1 trillion. Obama’s is merely $983 billion, assuming he wins the next election and runs until 2017. George Bush was the only president to run us into two unofficial wars while reducing taxes. War time should increase taxes to pay for the war, but he reduced it, running America into the ground. The United States has always had a debt since the founding, the debt increasing after each presidency.
If you don’t have Obama’s back in the next election, who would it be? Mitt Romney, a flip flopper who recently became a Republican and changes his word with every state he gives a speech in? Rick Santorum who wants to nullify all same sex marriages and ban future same sex marriages, close down Planned Parenthood, and thinks women shouldn’t be working. Newt Gingrich who has nothing good in his policies except expanding the Space Program but gets demeaned because he has piss poor morals and divorced his second wife because she has cancer? Or Ron Paul, the oldest candidate that would ever enter the Presidency. We had a president leaving office the same age he entered and that president had Alzheimers during his last year in office. Besides age, Ron Paul believes that the government should stop getting involved during our most needed time to get out this shithole.
During the State of the Union Address, Obama said he wanted to raise the taxes on the rich, not the federal income tax, but the taxes on Capital Gains which is how people like Mitt Romney make a surplus of money. He’s trying to give to the people that need it.
I’ve always been a Republican, but i’m not going to sugarcoat it when I say that I wouldn’t trust any of the Republican candidates currently running compared to Obama. He had a goal going into office: Universal Healthcare. And damn it, he went through with it. Even Bush could never keep his word.
Don’t believe everything people bitch about because a lot of Americans don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about. They bitch about someone who is trying to fix the current economic problem.
Educate yourself, then speak.
Agreed! Said he’d bring our troops back, check. Said he’d get bin laden, check. Said he’d help our economy, check (are we in a depression?). Said he’d reform healthcare, check (damn republicans). Said he’d change our nation, check.
I don’t see one thing that he DIDNT accomplish.
Plus, do you see any other president dance with Ellen D? Nope.

I seriously felt retarded and cheated after further research into the Stop Kony movement by the Invisible Children. Although the organization may be spreading what should be known worldwide, this isn’t something that can be solved through “fame.” If you really feel that taking children to be in his army is bad, supporting the Invisible Children group isn’t doing much to help innocent children in Africa. Supporting that group is basically supporting the Ugandan army. Barely any of your donated money actually makes its way to the children. The Ugandan army has been known to use children in its army as well, so why aren’t they being publicized as much as Kony has?
I fell for the movement as soon as I saw it, and I forgot to really think beyond what was shown to me. You might as well inform yourself on something before spreading it to others.
Btw, i’m not saying that I support Kony. It’s inhuman. Feeling bad for those children and telling others about it is fine, but if you really want to do something about it, you better know what you’re talking about. Find reliable sources and donate your money to the right charities.
My life.
#DEAD
i cannot.
OH MY GOD
I cannot contain all my feels… I’m dying my heart…oh my heart…
the feelings though…this books series means more to me than most people can understand. thank you Tumblr for giving me people who understand
harry potter always has been, and always will be, my home.
There are tons of things that have influenced me over my lifetime, but I think Harry Potter is probably one of, if not the biggest. It got me into fantasy, into long, intricate storylines, relationships between characters, and in general helped form so many of the ideas and styles of writing and thinking I have. So yeah, I gotta say this hit home for me.
Its not just a book. Not just a boy.It altered my life and my perspective. It made me see how important life was. It made me realize how lucky I am. It changed me and thousands of others across the globe. And it will stay with us ALWAYS. Thank you, Jo.
