Putin is the thug who has all of BOBO’s original academic records in his private safe.  
That’s it? The best you’ve got? It appears I’ve stumbled on a ‘special needs’ school yard on this forum.

Just gives him more ammo to throw.

It’s …disturbing watching him reload.

The call for us to “Wake up!” seals it. Weapons-grade stupid.

Not to mention that the nationalization of the means of production and requiring all media content to receive government approval are both lagging far beyond my worst expectations. He’s just slacking, as far as I can tell.

Seriously. He’s almost as bad a Socialist as he is a Muslim.

Left off the “sheeple”, though. 5 point deduction.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Yes he is. Also, **Happy Lendervedder** only used 6 commas. _And he used them all correctly_. Our new troll may legitimately be stupider than **Clothahump**. I hope he sticks around.

Bring it LIB fuck wits! The entire world has been laughing behind BOBO’s back since the day he was elected.  
He’s accomplished fuck all except to embolden our enemies and attempt to turn the country into fucking Greece.  
Why? B/c like virtually all negro men his father abandoned him and BOBO has been attempting to ‘prove’ his worth to his father ever since. Very common reaction from people who have been abandoned by their parents.  
BOBO’s father was an avowed communist and BOBO has spent his life trying prove his ‘worth’ to his father. What better way than to turn the US into a Socialist/Communist country. I’m sure BOBO’s father would be very proud.  
Thankfully BOBO didn’t follow in his slut mother’s footsteps and become a "B’ grade porno star.

Says the guy who apparently doesn’t know what an apostrophe is.

But seriously: would it be fair to say that you have no particular interest in this board other than to try to get a rise out of people?

Yes. Changed “avoided” to “avowed.” That’s it.

The whole thing reads like a parody.

Is there some kind of term for this kind of cliche reaction? “Lordy me! I took a dump in my pants and jumped in the kidee pool and lookee how people dun reacted to my shitstorm!!!”

No, ‘dumbass stupid’ isn’t precicice enough.
