I was not out of the car wash an hour when a bird shit on my car. When is... oh wait, Obama will make that better with bird killing wind power. Never mind.   :uhsure:
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

Obama ain't paying for my daughter's weekly percussion and voice lessons.  Does he not care about the yoots of his country? 
I want my handout dammit!!!

Here is some vintage James Brown to cheer you up.  :evillaugh: (he kind of reminds me of .... I can't say it, I'll have to PM you)

I forgot to charge my cellphone last night so it was on low battery today when I was out running errands. I believe The One should have provided me with a back-up phone and/or called to remind me to charge it the night before. I expect my nightly phone call from The One promising me it's going to be okay.

Oh, you can tell them.

I was Black for a year.  Really -- 1972. 

Even today people ru up to me and ask for my autograph and ask me to sign "that white dude that was Black in 1972 before all white kids became Black."

I filled up with gas today......and Obomber wasn't there to pay for it. Then a cop jumped outta the bushes and charged me with stealing gas and things went downhill from there.

I asked the clerk at Dunkin' Donuts today to redistribute me a large coffee. He just stared at me. Obviously this guy isn't on the same page as the Barack Star...

Massive thunderstorms are moving through the Bible Belt. The Obama staff has already duplicated a Rove-Brand 3000â„¢  "Katrina Maker".

We had straight line winds, heavy rain and I couldn't go outside to smoke !!! (Even with the new roof over the deck!!) Then the power went out !!! It's ALL Obama's fault !!!

That's probably the case, even if he voted for him...just my observation of friends who did :lmao:

It rained, which caused the ocean levels to rise.  And it's 15 degrees warmer than normal for this time of year.  The earth has a fever as well, and the Obummer has done nothing to stop it.

Also, I'm at a 1/4 tank.  I stopped at the gas station expecting someone to fill it for me, but no, I still have to worry about that as well.
