    I saw it and it was good but if you were paying any attention prior to Obama getting elected, then the movie is nothing new. If you are one of people that blindly follow Obama or you are still on the fence then you have to go see the movie before you vote. This way you can make an informed decision. Get to know the man and why he is making the decisions that he has made so far. The movie uses his own words from his books and video clips. Don't bury your head in the sand and say this movie is BS before you see it. If you give the movie a chance it will open your eyes and change your mind about a lot of things. I don't care who you vote for, just see the movie first. That way at least you know the person you are voting for or against this time around.

      Does it mention Romney's own words?

      "There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what…These are people who pay no income tax.

      [M]y job is is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

          Real Talk

          We're screwed with Obama, because he doesn't have that Bush like mentality to do what he wants to do, whether the other party likes it or not. So, essentially nothing is going to improve.

          We're even more screwed if Romney get in, because he only cares for the rich and well-to-do class ... the rest can go to hell.

          Neither is the answer, the country needs at this point in history.


          Obama = screwed with grease
          Romney = screwed raw with much blood and pain
          all of that can change if he gets a second term. at least I'd hope so.

            *{not saying that Obama is anything close to the historical Jesus}*

            Obama tries to do some good for the country, but the GOP, for the last 3+ years, have been hell-bent on undermining his every move -- So, nothing gets done.

            For anyone to choose Romney over Obama, they would have to be seriously out of touch with reality. Romney, who so happens to be a so-called religious man, is quite possibly the biggest lier that has ever run for office .... and that is one hell of an accomplishment.

            This movie is unoriginal, and obviously filled with an agenda. And since the GOP is behind it, it is filled with almost as many manufactured lies, and half-truths as Paul Ryan's speech at the GOP convention.

            Totally shameful display for the world to see .......
            did he not have full democratic control his first two years?

                Actually it only lasted a little over seven weeks .........

                Having majority control of both house of Congress doesn’t necessarily mean much if the opposition in the Senate decides to filibuster your legislation, and without a consistent caucus of 60 votes to overcome a cloture vote, legislation can be effectively blocked.

                There were only two time periods during the 111th Congress when the Democrats had a 60 seat majority:

                From July 7. 2009 (when Al Franken was officially seated as the Senator from Minnesota after the last of Norm Coleman’s challenges came to an end) to August 25, 2009 (when Ted Kennedy died, although Kennedy’s illness had kept him from voting for several weeks before that date at least); and
                From September 25, 2009 (when Paul Kirk was appointed to replace Kennedy) to February 4, 2010 (when Scott Brown took office after defeating Martha Coakley);
                For one day in September 2009, Republicans lacked 40 votes due to the resignation of Mel Martinez, who was replaced the next day by George LeMieux

                So, to the extent there was a filibuster proof majority in the Senate it lasted during two brief periods which lasted for a total of just over five months when counted altogether (and Congress was in its traditional summer recess for most of the July-August 2009 time frame).
