I thank Obama because ... he has consistently destroyed my personal freedoms eroded the economy to a point recovery seems hopeless shattered our chances at success in our foreign conflicts (even though admittedly success has already been lost and paid for by those brave soldiers that sacrificed their lives and wellbeing). But mostly I thank Obama because he has allowed this nation to hit rock bottom and now the only direction is up (unless the American people decide to vote in politicians with jackhammers to dig us deeper beneath the bedrock).
