Oh, if I believed in omens... I believe in Divine Providence instead.

The only thing worse would be if the teleprompter started to read “MENE MENE TEKEL UPHARSIN...”

May it be for a good omen, that his Presidency should fall and soon.

So does the seal, apparently.

So then we'd be given over to Persia and the media? Oh, no!

“All of you know who I am,”

Does anyone alive know who Obama is?

Even the Seal itself hangs its head and falls in shame at what this Imam is doing to our country and the mockery he makes of the presidency.

The Audacity of Truth about Barrack Hussein Obama

Now that he’s got the real thing, it’s clonking off the podium and rolling around like an old hubcap or something.
