We've taken many breaths, thanks

You say to "take a breath, America." We have been breathing since Obama took office in January.

Breathed while he had to so quickly pass a "stimulus" bill filled with pork. Breathed while he went over to Europe and told leaders how many mistakes we have made and how bad we are for making them. Breathed while he presented various leaders with the most ridiculous gifts. Breathed while he got rid of the president of GM and took over the company. Breathed while he touted cap and trade and the health care reform package that will bankrupt this country. All this in his first seven months. With a background like this, parents do not want him talking to their children in the schools.
