So many RED's. The one that really got me was this:
Barack Obama's mother was born a man.

You know the people who make up this shite are really hateful disgusting people.

80% of the items on this list are incorrect and proven so many times but yet we still see them on Facebook and Yahoo and stupid message boards. How else can we not see this but what it is - racism?? I'm sorry, but I've never seen anything like this from any other candidate or President. Just wow
