Obama’s apocryphal Christianity will no longer be an issue in 350 days and five hours!

The claims that Zero isn’t really a Muslim are apocryphal.

It’s the obvious non-biblical target.

Am in Puerto Rico with xshub for a conference, I continue to poll the populace. Spoke to two guys in the pool yesterday, from NYC, one Jewish, started talking about Bern and Hill, they opined Hill could not be elected bc of email stuff. I asked who they liked— Trump. Said he was the only one with the balls to undo everything Obama has done.

"Now n then I get here and am always glad when I do."

Is it really you, or is this just apocryphal?

The apocryphal “greatness” of the clinton Presidency, and Bernie’s apocryphal record as a “peace candidate”, leave Democrat voters with NOTHING to rely on!!!!

He dropped a pretty, but inexpensive copy of a very famous glass vase off at the Las Vegas pawn shop to be appraised. Yep, it was only apocrystalphake.

The “hopey-changey, he’s wonderful!”
Tale of Obama is apocryphal
Healthcare to Benghazi
He’s ruled like a Nazi
Bullcrap is the one thing with which he’s full

The election is replete with so many apocryphal stories about the candidates that it’s hard to know what is the truth.

Trump has balls all right, but he isn’t committed to conservativism. Not in the least. But neither is a couple from NYC who could consider Hillary.
