1. Saw it. Wondered what their focus grouping results were on that word "leaf".
Problem is, if you tell Americans that they are DUMB, they just get mad and insist upon getting evern DUMBER.

2. I watched this with my uber-conservative parent and we were both disgusted.

5. I wonder how many idiots actually think this crap, along with other commemorative coins...
Are made by the U.S. Gov't.

I guess these people got tired of peddling commemorative plates.

6. It is a genuine government issue item.
Only thing is that government is Liberia.

BTW, What is "pure silver leaf"? Not sure I've heard of that before.

The ad doesn't state how much actual silver is in the commemorative bill.

8. Does Obama own one?
If not, we must ask, "why is he dissing the victims of 9/11"?

10. Howdy Neighbor
And fellow night owl. I have a feeling we don't have a lot of political views in common, but I can't sleep, so hello.

I have very strong feelings about 9/11 too, but I don't feel that paying for a fake piece of currency quite helps me express my emotions about that horrible day. My 2 cents.

Also, I hope that our air quality in the Bay Area improves soon. Gotta be hot and hazy where you are, too.

Good night
