• SS and Medicare are underfunded by at least $40 trillion, and if anyone dares to say "gee, is that something we should be concerned about?", our president (and every network except one) will claim that person hates old people.
• Unemployment is almost 8%
• 2 superb Americans died in Benghazi, after risking their lives to save 30 fellow Americans. They died fighting for their lives, they asked for help, and though help was available, it never came. 8 weeks later, our "transparent" President has told us nothing, and none of the azz-kissers in the media have the integrity to ask. As a Marine, that bothers me a hell of a lot more than someone exercising their right to free speech

If you don't think we're in distress, and I mean genuine distress...yuo aren't paying attention.

you're not necessarily wrong, but given the great history of this nation, it aint a blip in the grand scheme of things.
I dont think we're heading in the right direction, but things have more dire in our history.
