I read the above article and all of the comments section following it. It seems to me the real miracle was that the house was donated by the wife of a REPUBLICAN representative!

Huh, what is that about?

That darn Republican, what is he/she doing acting so out of character.

I thought Julio was hilarious, I think I saw somewhere, someone stepped up to help him too.

Yeah, he has a one day gig announcing for some minor league sports team. A whole $25 bucks. BUT it counts as one job for BHO, so only 3,999,999,999 to go!

That's almost as bad as saying "like" in every other sentence.
My husband was in a chat room when Obama started taking the questions and said: "OK, new drinking game - drink whenever Obama says 'um' or 'uh'." One of the responses was "Alcohol poisoning in 2 minutes flat!"

Seriously, think of that whenever you see him speaking without the teleprompter.

He does give a right perty speech. Of course, so did Clinton. I think that's what got him elected twice (that and the GOP put up a bad candidate), he did have charisma which Obama has in spades (no racial pun there...it's a card cliche with spades being the highest suit). Of course, Hitler did too, so that's not indicative of a "good" leader, either. (Not comparing Obama to Hitler, before anyone gets up in arms about that...just saying that being charismatic and a good speaker isn't the best way to judge a leader.)
