Apparently, This Is the Most Anti-Obama County in America

Yep, according to CNN, King County, Texas, is the least Obama-friendly county in the nation.

“What do you think of Barack Obama’s first term?” CNN’s Gary Tuchman asked one of the King County residents.

“It ain’t worth a damn,” the man responded. “None of it good at all. Don’t agree with anything he done.”

The president is so disliked in the county, in fact, that during the 2012 presidential election, he received only five votes. Yes, in a county with a population of about 255, only five people voted for President Obama.

This means King County holds the distinction of being the county where President Obama received the lowest vote percentage.

“If you could tell Barack Obama to do one thing,” Tuchman said to another resident, “what would you tell him?”

“To resign,” the resident laughingly responded.

CNN decided to ask a few King County residents why President Obama is so unpopular there.

“I thought he sounded more like a dictator than a president,” one woman said.

“Anytime anything goes wrong, he just blames it on Bush,” another said.

      Acorn will now set up shop in King County for Obama’s 3rd term and 300 out of the 250 in the country will vote for Obama next time.

      If he did that bad in King County apparently he didn’t get enough dead people to vote for him there.

      This puts into perspective the almost certain voter fraud in PA where Romney got 0 votes in 59 districts & 0 votes in 9 districts in Ohio. This sounds like the work of ACORN.

      Perfect even here Mitt Romney could not get 100% of the vote. This proves massive voter fraud in this election.

      Col West keep pushing for a total recount and for every piece of evidence form individual ballots to hard drives from voting machines.

      Col West you know that you are the only one fighting for the Constitution, you are a good man and remember

      First, I would have thought being that against Obama it would be further south. I have a “friend” here in Dallas county who has a daughter going to college somewhere south, and a man did hang Obama in effigy. Her had her liberal friends got real indignant, calling it a racist move. I asked her, in public on Face Book, if they all got that upset when they Hung Bush and set him of fire. Of course not, and I was asked to leave, so I unfriended her. I just can’t stand all the liberal crap. It’s the free stuff. That county must actually work to hate Obama that much. they probably only have 5 people on Welfare.

      ******************************************************************************************************

      So even in the most rabid anti-Obama county in the nation, he still receives at least a token handful of votes. How odd that in the most rabid anti-GOP counties, Obama gets not only 100% of the votes, but 100% of registered voters there turn out.

      Nah, nothing strange to see here folks. Keep moving.

      I love Texas,too. Unfortunately, my hometown of San Antonio is turning blue. Our worthless newspaper endorsed Obama and he won in SA. The Dems upcoming “star” Julian Castro is our mayor. We lost a lot of key elections. Any conservatives wanting to move to Texas please come to San Antonio. We need reinforcements. It’s a lovely city and I hate to see it run into the ground by these progressives. I’m truly weeping for my city the last few years. Remember the Alamo! Help!

      @1Proud_Texan
      I’m with you. I was born and raised here and still trying to live here under this mini-Obama wannabe, Castro. And there’s two of them to deal with in this state. San Antonio has historically been blue Dem because anyone growing up here knows that the poor Dem voting districts are little third world nations. They never change one generation to the next.They never clean up or look any better and the Dem campaign signs are everywhere. And they’re still up. They never come to take them down. We really do need more conservatives to move here. San Antonio is the best historical city in Texas and I love the history, but loathe the politicians who are too busy giving themselves raises, creating six figure positions for their spouses, and getting parks and baseball stadiums named after them when we all know they’re slimy rats.
      Remember the Alamo, fellow Blazer! You’re not alone. We do need some serious reinforcements!Maybe we need a conferencehere or something. Instead of Comic-con, we need a Conserva-Con!
      SOS… we’re being taxed for Pre-K that’s is already offered in public schools! Julian Castro is another lib Dem Obama *ss kissing POS! Can you tell I loathe him???? Ha!

      I totally agree, Texas IS a beautiful place and IS a State of Mind. I live North of Dallas/Fort Worth and I am sad to say that it (Texas) is quickly becoming a swing state. We can blame that on Houston, San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, Denton and a few other cities around here and there. Part of the problem is that in these population centers, many people are lazy and like handouts or come from other blue states for work…hence the “blue-ness” of the areas. (Hmmm, when the government and unions run one state into the ground, why not move to another for the time being until it is ruined too?)

      I like to work, I like to work hard and see a task completed, I like to know that I make a difference by what I do and what I convey by hard work. My kids are learning it and I hope that they will continue with the same tenacity.

      God Bless Texas and God Help our Nation.

      Texas has a Yankee immigration problem. A couple of my Yankee relatives moved there years ago. These were the kind of people who cut up their Exxon credit cards when the Valdez run aground. Yet they moved to Oil country for lower taxes and better pay. That’s what kind of stupidity you’re up against.

      Texas problem is it has a Country Club Republican problem who are rich, want to be liked and just want to get along. They are trying to be the elite of Texas.

      I know I have some in the family.

      Texas was founded and defended by Texicans,who where both from Mexico and the US.

      It use to be the Wild West that was settled by a more Libertarian type of pioneer. We might want to think about that.

    That’s why Tejas has been repeatedly voted “the State most likely to Suceed” during the past 4 years.

    Actually economically we love the Obama administration. The marxist policies of this group of closet commies has culled the best and brightest OUT of the rest of the US. All of these best and brightest have now “Gone to Texas” include Glenn Beck.

      Did you really think that the first rendition of your inane post was so powerful and moving that it needed only slightly rephrased and then posted again after a couple of minutes had transpired? Texas is actually a great state to live in. And for every uneducated cowboy booted hick that you think may reside there….aside from any urine reeking alley off Guadalupe Street in Austin….I would dare say most anywhere else in Texas you would only last about 7 minutes. If there is any state in this country that could survive quite nicely without “Federal” money….it is indeed Texas. That was the most asinine aspect of your “double post”. You obviously have not spent much time in Texas….and I can easily venture to say that no real Texan is missing the TROLLMONGER in any way shape or form…..or as they say…..you are all hat…no ranch.

    It nice that CNN did a piece on King county TX, how bout they do a piece in some of those cities/counties (Philly) were Romeny did’nt get a vote. Then the country can see how “enlightened” the masses are.

      Yup, and I bet none have a degree from Haaaaarvaaard or Yale like President Hussein and his minions. A lot of empty chairs.
      You cannot teach common sense. There’s no course on this subject at any Ivy college that I know of. Which explains the continued collapse of our nation and society.
      Native, born and raised Texans know between rain falling and when someone is peeing on their leg.
      King County, TX… I salute you. God Bless.

    “If you could tell Barack Obama to do one thing,” Tuchman said to another resident, “what would you tell him?”

    “To resign,” the resident laughingly responded.

    Such a perfect response :)

    Soon to be population of 259 if they’ll have me and my family. I like a place that isn’t afraid to give it with the bark on.
