27. Too bad they couldn't have found a way to add "CORPORATIST STOOGE!!one!"
but I think that just about covers all of the flaming BS surrounding the President. :)

lol Gotta love it -- Wall Street loving Socialistic Godless Muslim. :rofl: That's mighty tasty irony, right there.

Kick and rec.

36. Thought the exact same thing
This could have the opposite of the intended effect. People are going to see that on the newsstands, not look closely, and not understand it.
