Barry Soetoro’s entire life has been a CIA psyop. His mom and grandparents were definitely spooks. Hell, even his adopted Indonesian father worked with the Company.

I would say Mike that this 'Cheesehead' would vote for you. Oh well, you didn't and the Marxist is trying (with Dems and Rinos)to wreck the USA.
