Can a Muslim be a schmuck? I think he just managed. No class, no forethought and above all, no freaking BRAINS.

Watching the clip-Emmanuel was grinning as Obama started his comments.

Obama treated Ahmadinejad with more deference and respect than he showed Nancy Reagan.

Yeh, none of the grandmother things make since. Most people in the world are normal and will wonder why there was no funeral. Won’t they? It really bothers me.

8. Granny Obama sacrificed chickens to the “Goddess Of The River” in Kenya, supposedly to help her grandson get elected president.
