Are you really going to let the Tea Party win, this November?
Yeah, I know… Obama has not fulfilled many of our hopes and dreams. (*See below for a list of actual Obama accomplishments!)
But IF YOU SIT ON YOUR HANDS, the message you send is that the Tea Party has WON!
When you complain, and don't get out the vote, you invite these Tea Party total lunatics into the governance of our country, including:
#Les Phillip (AL), a black man running against Obama,, w forged pix of Obama 'smoking'
#Tim D'Annunzio (NC) would dismantle much of the fed government, held a machine-gun social
#Rand Paul (KY) wants to abolish the Americans with Disabilities Act
#Sharron Angle (NV) says insurers should not have to cover autism or pregnancy
#Joe Miller (AK) wants overturn health reform
#Christine O'Donnell (DE) opposes abortion and GOP 'cannibalism' and may have broken campaign finance laws

What HAS Obama actually accomplishedin just TWO years???
Lots -- particularly so, considering that his efforts have been crippled by deficits from the Republican administrations -- not to mention, a parade of criticisms from the left, joining the drumbeat of negativity from the 'mainstream media.'
This list of Obama's accomplishments in office comes from NY Times best-selling author Frank Schaeffer Schaeffer link 1 Schaeffer link 2.
