The Obamas welcomed hundreds of Olympians and Paralympians to the White House on Friday, honoring them for their hard work in London this summer.

"I'm the fan-in-chief," President Obama told members of the U.S. team gathered on the South Lawn.

Sports are great Obama, you a-hole but they are not what this country is all about.

We are about being able to make a movie under the First Amendment rights without having federal agents track down the maker and give his name to the Muslims.

We are about Freedom, and protecting our citizens: Not about free flights to Vegas for fund raisers.

Obama you SOB you dont have a fricking clue as to what America is all about.
