  • I agree with Notsosilent. I've thought long and hard about buying lots more guns and ammo. I would love to get out of this city and live in the mountains like a patriotic pioneer. Obama's inspiration has made me think about doing ****** up things to some of those useless criminal polititions.

  • That little clip was pretty uncomfortable all around. I think Obama was waiting for responses he didn't get...

    A foreshadowing of what will happen in November :)

    • I'm not a raaacist, I don't care for politicians or stupid people with all the equality I can muster. Hmmm...stupid people or politicians? Is that an oxymoron or a redundency in terms?

    • Either I got three thumbs down because some didn't know I was being sarcastic or...well, I think we know what the other reason might be for the thumbs down.

      • You used the traditional spelling "racist" instead of the modern Olbermann-Garafoalo spelling "raaaaacist". The former indicates one who is prejudiced based on race while the latter indicates someone who does not vote Democrat.

  • Don't know if I would have laughed, would have been too busy looking for some rotten fruit to throw at him.
