Why did we (the taxpayer) have to pay ANYTHING for this printed toilet paper? Shouldn't the narcissist and chief have just given it to whoever for free.

Whenever I think the kenyan in the White Hut can't sink any lower.... BAMMM!!! , he comes out with something like this. What a national embarrassment.

I can't wait till Jan 20, 2013
Then, to paraphrase Mooch, for the first time in 4 years I'll be proud of my country.

“more than $70,000 worth of books”

Each book is “worth” about a penny. That would be about 7 million books? Sheesh.

This is not an Obama book.

It is a Bill Ayers book.

Many college professors love to write “new” editions of their books and insist that students can only use the new ones; effectively establishing a racket to keep the royalties coming in for old prof. (Hey, retirement isn’t cheap.) You can bet that all of these libraries may have to order new printings with “key revisions” of his book in the future.

I am old enough to feel like I have seen it all, but just when I think I have seen the last new horror from Obozo and his crowd they surprise me with something even more outrageous.

And their arrogance is beyond all imagination. They cannot seem to understand why we despise them for their abuses.

But then all Commies Lie. It is in their DNA. They all Lie, Steal, Subject and murder. With no remorse until they are overthrown.
