Trolling the streets like a whore for Johns, he sells his ideological union heart for potential campaign contributions.

In the end, nothing he publically says has the value of a dog turd because he doesn’t really mean any of it. The only thing that matters is the words we are not privileged to hear.

Sometimes Wal-Mart reminds me of a government office:


  1. The nearest parking is a quarter mile from the door.
  2. What you need to get is another quarter mile to the back of the store.
  3. There are 30 something check-out lanes and maybe three of them are actually open.
  4. It is on the top of my "must avoid" list in the few days after government checks are issued.
  5. Yeah, you save a little money, but you had to work hard to earn said savings.

Considering Minnie the Moocher was on the board of Treehouse Foods, and their number one customer was Walmart, I'd think Obama would be just fine with that.

But then again, she resigned from the board just before he announced his running in 2008, just to avoid the Walmart problem for him.

Roosting chickens I suppose.

How all this DIVERSITY raging over opposing objectives does not explode the big LIE of PROGRESSIVISM is a wonderment to me.

I think he is successful because media is so careful and diligent in managing his duplicitous brand.

They selectively control where and when and to whom they release this BS. Whether it is consciously or unconsciously, it doesn’t matter. It comes naturally to them now and they are experts at it. Normal Democrat voters who have any modicum of intelligence won’t even see this or think about “what’s not right with this picture.”

Whoever set up the venue must be a troll. I saw a photo of Zero’s podium. In the background was the shoe section with a big rack of flip-flops.

I think he went there to by “advanced focus” laser beams because the “regular focused” ones weren’t working.
