  1. Its not a F-ing DEMOCRACY you idiot!

    Were losing our Republic , because people don’t even call our form of government what it is in the first place..

    listen to the anointed one ..(B.O.) he talks about our democracy all the dam time..Im sick as F about our form of government being whored out like this..

    Do we sing “And to the democracy for which its stands”? No we don’t..its “and to the REPUBLIC for which it stands” get it right or leave my Republic!

    I want the form of government we The People were promised and I want it back NOW!
