2017? Lessee, that would be a year after Barry's second term, if he gets one. So, if it doesn't happen it'll be someone else's fault, right Barry?

This guy must think we're all stupid. 'Course, he's probably right about his own base.

Hee hee, you’re right!

One typical snippet:

“I had such high hopes for Obama, he has done nothing but disappoint me. “

So who said there’s nothing we could agree with the DUmpsters about...
