Thursday Dept of Political Opportunism & Hypocrisy

September 17th, 2009 · 3 Comments

Let’s eat pizza for America! Hate that black guy, Barack Obama, and don’t want your children to know he exists? Take them to Gattitown and let them pig out on artery-clogging dessert pizza as you, yourself, get fatter and fatter. THIS is what the Paultards and teabaggers do with their lives. […]
