Leprosy....All my skin is falling off of me... (Sung to the tune of The Beatles “Yesterday”)
native of Micronesia
served time in 3 other prisons
Why did we allow this pos into the country and why are we allowing him to stay? Yes, our immigration system is broken, but not in the way the Dims mean!
LOL. This thread ought to be good for a string of leper jokes.
Ship him off to the island. ..
No skin off my back...
Ain’t multiculturalism grand?
Taking silver biotics and asap gel will get rid of the leprosy in days. Many missionary doctors use it on the field.
Shake WHAT off?
Alright, lets not lose our heads.
Nuh uh, ony gonna kill us a liddabit.
Alas, Obama hugs the Ebola nurses.
So shall the walk among the Lepers.
