BTW, did we mention Obamacare is FREE? (see the sparkly thing?)

Oh come on!

Obama has been doing everything a Muslim terrorist would do for the muzzies.

He is destroying the US economy, he is destroying the US engergy sector, he is destroying the effectiveness of the US military...... Etc.

Obama is doing everything a muzzie terrorist would do if he were President because that is who he is working for.
