Barack Obama has become a mere figurehead, who gives speeches few listen to any more, issues threats that scare fewer, and makes promises that almost no one believes he will keep. Yet America continues on, despite the fact that the foreign and domestic policies of Barack Obama are unraveling, in a manner unusual even for star-crossed presidential second terms.

I seem to recall him being dictator for a while. But, it looks like a woodpecker could bring this house of cards down.
However, at the moment, the GOP is madly hunting woodpeckers.

He never was nor will he ever be. He is the face for his puppeteers, dancing to their tune.

He is — and always has been — just a front man for the shadowy cabal of Leftists who snuck him into office.

Buckwheat believes he’s king of Africa and he’s trying to resurrect the Mursi.

“Mursi females wear lip plates in pierced and stretched lower lips, with their lower teeth removed. They believe that animals, plants and objects have supernatural powers. A ‘donga ceremony,’ is two naked men fighting each other with sticks and the winner selecting a woman for sex...”
