Love you, BOG! Let's support the President during this heart-wrenching time. [View all]

A lot of us BOGers voted for Barack Obama in 2008 (and 2012) for Peace. I know I did. I still see him as a person of peace who is faced with a very difficult "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. As troubled as I am, I am glad to see so much support here on the BOG for the President. I really don't pray, but I am praying to whatever force is out there that he makes the wise decisions, as he usually does.

And, ad nauseum, THIS IS POSTED IN THE BARACK OBAMA GROUP - A safe haven for members of Democratic Underground who support the president and his policies.
