Hey moron. Stop copying and pasting the same stupid text from some right-wing blog. The Washington Post has NOTHING on that story. It's just made up. Out of the blue.

You re lying.

And stop pretending that your command of the english language is strong enough to formulate your post. You don't even know the difference between "there" and "their".

You're just a sheep copying and pasting lies somebody else came up with.

You make me sick.

At least come up with your own lies, sheep.

DreamAquMarine - Your not the smartest person, the word stupid sums you up. Your like the woman who told Obama that she didn't want Healthcare run by the govt or socialised healthcare and not to touch her MEDICARE well medicare is a socialist, government run healthcare system! Not every job in America has been outsourced and it is Obama's job over the next 3 1/2 years to reduce outsourcing, help create news jobs, try and get some old jobs back! We don't need your STUPID and Negative comments!

Great speech, but I don't believe that other people would really give a shit rather than smoking pot :(

More LIES from the KING of the New World Order! MORE LIES about 9/11! More LIES while the world watches! More LIES about so-called terrorists! More LIES from the U.S. Congress, U.S. Senate, U.S. Government! Wake UP America WE HAVE BEEN DUPED by THE MURDERERS, LIARS and THIEVES in the U.S. Government. 2 illegal wars with over 5000 U.S. Troops dead, 1.5 million dead in Iraq and thousands dead in the Middle East because OF THE LIES about 9/11! While THIS bastard continues the LIES!

It's worst than that. Obama is training the boy scouts to kill veterans and gun owners. Watch "Fall of The Republic."

The country is gone.

I signed up for the post 9/11 bill back in July and still haven't recieved my payments, only 20% of the claims have been processed. Now I'm locked out of signing up for next semester and am so broke that I am selling everything I own on EBay just to pay the rent. This country should be ashamed of how it treats it's veterans.. I signed for the G.I. bill IN MY CONTRACT! It was my REASON for joining in the first place and now I'm about to be homeless. Thank you.
