Omg prsident obama cares he such a great president! no one touch him! no one! lol true hes awesome!
Seems all those on other sites posting about the president not on top of this haven't a clue...as usual they just whine about nothing.
@jean2009; They know he knows it! They've sat and watched him on the TV speaking to it! They've just turned their heads so they could continue on their sulking 'pity party' about the man! They're sick psychos! The man is doing just what any other PRESIDENT would and should do! He acknowledged it from overseas, promising JOPLIN that he would stick with them as long as took. When he got back he went to JOPLIN to view the damage and need with even more promises to help the folk get back on their feet! HATE!
