And I figure that TOTUS had the word misspelled........Obama IS Ron Burgundy!
Vacationing!
Heck yeah! He's got SO many vacations to plan, I really feel for the guy. He must be exhausted! And he's got to figure out what to do with the moose when he gets her there.
Ever notice how Democrat women of all ages and colors always cover up for the Democrat president’s mistakes.....JFK, Billy Jeff, B. Hussein? How 19th century!
