Just an old White guy messing with two brothers...

Glenn Beck mentioned it today.
I agree with you about Fox (O’Reilly)... he has caved.... I only trust media reports from Canada Free Press” <business@canadafreepress.com or some of the news from England. They see obamanation exactly as he is and can’t believe we Americans are so blind.
"walpin" has also disappeared from FR's "Popular Keywords." One possibility is that we all have short attention spans, but Obama and Co. are throwing so much cr*p at us it's hard to keep up.
