What is Obama doing to our country? This is insane.

Every crazy person in the country has been activated by Obama’s hostility and repression.

Please, Lord, save us.

Since Ubama took office, the leading cause of unnatural death in the US has been suicide.

Any questions?

What are schizophrenics to do?

They turn on the TV,radio and newspapers and hear about the govt and NSA getting into all their shiite, email, personal communications, social media, phones,etc.

Its a schizophrenics nightmare out there.

Expect more of the same!

Fire, terror, rain of bullets brought to you by ‘over the edge’ schizophrenics who are bombarded on TV and the media by their worst nightmares.

But I thought that the left loves burning man.

These dancing reality shows are getting out of hand. I wonder if the judges kept him.
