I see he had the time and resources to do his NCAA picks before leaving town. Good to see the important business of the nation was attended to before going over there.

There’s a Man’s Country in Tel Aviv?

I’m sure the bath house one would love to see it.

What a disgrace.

If you don't like it here Obama, why don't you just become Obamad of Arabia and stay in the Middle East?

I bet Congress just can't wait to see you again. The answer is NO to everything!
