Paul Ryan, R- Wis., to explain $3 billion in payments that were made to health insurers even though Congress never authorized the spending through annual appropriations. In a Feb. 3 letter to Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, Ryan, along with House Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., asked for “a full explanation for, and all documents relating to” the administration’s decision to make the cost-sharing payments without congressional authorization.

Obama appears to be a tormented man, filled with resentment, anger, and disdain for anyone of an opinion or view other than his.

Obama acts in the most hateful, spiteful, malevolent, vindictive ways in order to manipulate and maintain power and control over others.

Obama grew up around family members and mentors who instilled him with an abiding bitterness toward the U.S. That bitterness seems not to have left him

It is not the color of Obama's skin that is a problem – for anyone in America. Rather it is the blackness that fills his soul and the hollowness in his heart where there should be abiding pride and love for this country.

Have we ever heard Obama speak lovingly of the U.S. or its people, with deep appreciation and genuine respect for our history, our customs, our sufferings and our blessings?

Obama is the Architect of the decline of America, and the epitome of a Demagogue.
