Five Guys makes great burgers.

Too bad Barry's a lousy President.

Ordering food and paying for food are two very different things.

Anyone can order food......

Surely he doesn’t feel like he still has to buy the guy off. Must be a reward for good behavior. Just like taking your kids out for a treat when they bring home all A’s at the end of the 3rd grade.

Important news I say. Williams must be feeling so special.

In minor news, North Korean went nuclear this week. Obama was relieved that it didn’t disrupt his cocktail hour.

We can file this under "Big Effin' Deal", cross filing under "Whoop de Doo" and "Who Gives a ****".

Can you imagine how jealous Chrissie Matthews is??

Apparently it’s pretty easy to buy off a reporter.

Listen to William’s response to the messiah. He says “thank you for caring”. Still in awe after all these months aren’t you Brian? The almighty messiah bought you a cheese burger on our dime. Hey messiah, hey Williams buy YOUR OWN DAMN CHEESEBURGER-and thank you for caring.
