Did Obama Payoff A Campaign Contributor With State Funds? Posted: 7 months ago by 2manyusernames
The media's worship of Obama is quickly dying off. In answer to this "hard-hitting expose", yeah he probably did and it is incredibly offensive and should be illegal. The problem is every single politician from dog catcher to POTUS has done the same thing.
-Of course this is just proof #1419 that his "change" consists of a change in payees not a change in politics.

Bernie Mac makes off-color joke at Obama event Posted: 4 months ago by BernardBlack
Bernie Mac's slightly risque joke does not go over well at an Obama event. That isn't shocking. What is shocking to me is the ancient age of the joke he was telling and the amount of times it gets posted to 1000's of forums every few months. Bernie. Cough up a few bucks for some writers.
