Oh yeah, I wasn’t angry at you, I was angry at McFossil. For god sake, he got to see the big bang, how about those of us too young to see it?

WHAT? You blame the nastiness of this campaign on Obama saying no to town hall meetings?

He’s bringing up Lewis? This guy deserves all the shit heaped on him. What an asshole.

Segregation was the worst chapter in American history? Holy shit, I guess America kicked off in the 20th century.

I thought we were older than that.

So, Obama’s supposed to apologize for Lewis because why? Because they’re both black? Fuck off, Johnny, you’re a hypocrite of the first water…

Annnnd Obama brings it back to economics.

The guys of New York seem much more conservative (I’m seeing more love for McBush).
