See video at link. This is better than a fool and his money parting ways. This is justice in some small way.

Another “DUH” moment for some of those duped in the adoration of this Chicago thug.

Do not make fun of the Obama commemorative coins.. In a few years they will be worth more than a Camel cupon.

Not having watched the ad closely I thought they'd simply made up a plastic piece and spray painted it with mirror finish acrylic.

Silly me ~ they printed a sticker!

Bwahahahahahaha!

They thought they were VOTING FOR A REAL PRESIDENT but many customers now say they were ripped off.

Talk about an understatement. And the coins are not the only rip off. The Messiah also is a fifty cent piece with a cheap covering.

I watched the vid and feel bad for the people. They seem like they are genuinely nice people that were ripped off. However, I have seen several stories about the poor quality of these coins since they were first available. A little research would have eliminated a big problem.
