It makes sense. They’re already all over the place. Obola will get worse and worse as his time runs out.

I’m afraid to think of what this epic destroyer will do in his last two years.

Even Ferretcon isn’t radical or offensive enough to be considered

"Al practically lives at the WH these days"

Only since the Ferguson incident. It just looks like Obama is using Al because Al always gets a lot of press over these phony racial issues. It happened with the Trayvon incident to. Obama is a user. It doesn't necessarily mean Al and Barky are tight - Obama uses everyone like this when is suits his needs.

We'll know the country is back on the right path when a POS like Sharpton can no longer
find an audience. Just the fact that the media gives coverage to him or the Rearend Jackson
irritates the hell out of me.

That would mean Holder would have two heads up his a**.
