How many people could that feed?

You need to Photoshop the text — I clearly read “Stalin”...

[Ezekiel]

A White House statement said that President Bush "declared an emergency exists in the District of Columbia".

Nevermind Captain Obvious, this calls for Master of the Understatement.

[madison10]

I suppose we’re paying for the farce...

[Thrownatbirth]

you don't want it to look like a schlock affair

Especially when the guest of honor is such an elitist fraud.

[Centurion2000]

Love Stalin .... Schaste Narodnoye ... can't make out the rest.

Yeah, that's about right.

Those chickens are already doing their thing all over our finances, and I don’t mean in a good fertilizer way.

Welcome to the 0bamaworld of Entitlement. Nothing is good enough for the 0. He deserves it after all of his life ‘struggles.’

[sickoflibs]

It’s well worth it

1) First black (liberal) president
2) Hope and change
3) He loves us
4) He walks on water (so what if treasury secretary is a tax dodger and raises our taxes?? It’s not like he’s a republican)

[ken21]

only the best for a socialist.

[mplsconservative]

How many people could that feed?

A few greedy Marxists, it seems. And yeah, 6 portapotties for every 1000 useful idiots.

Meanwhile the rest of us working stiffs that don't bend to socialism will pick up the slack. Can you tell I'm a little ticked by these ostentatious, craven bloodsuckers?

[Carley]

This is a person so insecure that he constantly needs symbols to prove he’s somebody.

He’s a nobody who stole an election with the help of ACORN and a psycho media.

[MinuteGal]

Oh, I hope the weather is frightful
It'll make me feel so delightful
Though I wish no woe for the Bro
Let it snow, let it snow, REALLY snow

And you ain't seen nothing yet! Hold on to your wallet, we still have social security for illegal aliens, college for terrorists to kill us more efficiently, houses for people who can't afford the mortgage (wait, they already did that)......

...6 portapotties for every 1000 useful idiots.

The Maha was in DC yesterday and mentioned that toilets rimmed the entire mall. Sickening really. Dubya's fault?

[river rat]

It must be a cultural thing with Kenyans...

Bling Bling, taking on airs and spending other people’s money.....

[mplsconservative]

It’s going to be a crazy few years. I hope this country survives.

After Zero produces the American version of the Weimar Republic, President Palin's inauguration is going to cost way more that Barry's.

[mplsconservative]

You just gave me the chills. What you say could be true, more than I hate to think about it.
