The author makes a fair case that 0bama’s base just does not care, and I believe him. And why should he care? He isn’t running for anything. Let the little people shout.

That's all fine and dandy now. But let Ebola breakout in a City, the Stock Market crash or ISIL blow something up in this country and He will be the recipient of EVERYONES rage. It's coming...

Yes, the depth of his grief was so great that he missed two easy putts on the front nine and hit into a nasty sand trap on the back nine. That’s some serious grief, folks.

To measure the depth:

1-pee on the floor
2-measure depth of the puddle
3-divide by 10

Let me be clear...

OBAMA DOESN’T GIVE A S**T
