not just everyTHING, but everybody obama touches turns to sh!t
Now time to purge the mosques!
Time to flush the ter-let! I just hope the military leans to more capitalism and democracy. I know. Not that likely in the short term.
You’re’ right...everybody obama touches goes BOOM!
Even moozlu8ms realize that certain moozlums are unfit to exist. Who would have thought?

Not much to see here!
This could be a good thing.
WOW!
John Kerry says in a transitional comment he hopes consistency prevails... code for the Islamic government to hold out. Obama mean while is reported to beg Allah for more than what Allah Wills.
Obama ~ the crumbling turd pile...
We didnt line the streets with tanks for nothing.
John Bighead- shut your pie-hole. You and the Muslim in office are obviously out of the loop and irrelevant.
YEAH!!!!! GOD BLESS THESE TURKS!!!! ATTATURK WOULD BE SO PROUD!!! THANK YOU MILITARY!!! I WISH OURS WOULD HAVE DONE THIS!!
Maybe they want to survive when the west finally wakes up and declares total war against Muslims.
Bet more mussie bombings because mussie bombings.
Allah speed, not quite as crazy type Muslims.
Goodbye to bad rubbish. May his remaining hours be few and uncomfortable.
The news of a fellow islamist in trouble is big enough to maybe get Mr Obama off the golf course.
