Obama wore a tan suit once and the Fox News goons had aneurysms for a solid week

You guys remember "terrorist fist jab"? That one was the one that pissed me off the most.

Remember that time Bush got us into two wars because of 9/11, but it wasn’t until Obama that the guy who caused it was killed. I member. Turns out the Republicans didn’t care about justice, they just cared about using the crisis to make some oil money for their VP and President.

I mean the US bombed the ever living shit out of Iraq during the first war, they had to finish the job in the 2nd war, even though they were so incompetent they let a bunch of recently fired and very disgruntled government workers with easy access to Saddam's old weapon's caches because the costs to do so wouldn't have fit within the "Iraq Business Plan". And this is how ISIS was born.
