Typical of the knaves and fools Barry has running our country now.

These degenerates must really be diseased. They hate themselves so completely...and project it outward as they attempt to destroy our society. nobama (and his psyohopathic self-loathing minions) will go down in history as the universes biggest losers. They are disgusting subhuman slime.

Not satire, unfortunately. The comments at the link are telling. Everyone's tired of this, er, transparency.
