I can’t believe you libs vote for complete morons; Al Franken, Joe Biden, Barney Frank, Obama just to name a few. and yes obama.. he can speak well when he has a teleprompter but stumbles and fumbles without it and not to mention that although “educated” he is really quite a dumbass that is in way over his head. He doesn’t have the first damn clue what the hell he is doing. I would love to know what the average IQ is of the democratic politicians and democratic voters.</p> Charles Rangel is an imbecile.
