We could look at the one slightly positive aspect...given a normal intelligence distribution, roughly 90% of the children will be smarter than the Obamadork.

And 95% should be able to pitch a baseball with more gravitas.

And that's just the little girls.

The cuckoo bird lays it’s eggs in other birds nests. When they hatch, the cuckoo hatchlings usually push the other hatchlings out of the nest to die, and the parent birds spend their efforts in feeding the cuckoo hatchling.
