  1. I bet Obama is happy in one way that his term is coming to an end. Now he will be able to wear his black sheath cocktail dress and his victoria secret purple thong panties during daylight hours again!

  2. Have a “go fund me” drive to get
    the cash to buy homes for former
    criminals to give them a “fair start”. Then pick the worse perps
    he pardoned and buy the houses on
    both sides of Barry for them to
    live in.
    I Would Love To See That!

  3. He’s a crook.
    Soyndra are crooks.
    Pelosi’s a crook.
    Koskinen’s a crook.
    Reid’s a crook.
    The entire Demonrat Party are crooks.

    He’s just looking out for his posse …
