Apparently Obama is going to tell us what he really thinks of Biden.

FReepers are notorious for taking typos and turning the thread the were posted in into legendary events.
Ah, there's nothin' like the oldies but goodies. :-P
Obammy got $500,000.00 five days before he was crowned as messiah for an adaptation of his own book. I AM STUNNED!

Doing well except for that poser in the white house
The culture that allowed AIG, FANNIE MAE, FREDDIE MAC and the rest of the high wheeler and dealers also allowed a man with a questionable Birth Certificate and one who will not allow anyone to see his education records.
Did he say he was stunned or stoned?
