Comparisons........by Rico
I'm heartily tired of the phoney and fawning media comparisons of Obama to Lincoln.
Since they are all followers, fans, or fellow-travelers of Karl Marx I have no reasonable expectation of honest comparisons to Stalin, Mao, or Castro from the MSM.
But HERE is a comparison that even graduates of the government-run school system of today can immediately grasp...OBAMA to NEWMAN!
NO...and this is for the 52% of you morons that voted for Obama, NOT the actor PAUL Newman! The other one!

Sneak preview - new book deal.....from Rico
It's pretty impressive actually. The first pResident of the US to get a "book deal" before taking office. This may be very forward-looking on the part of the publisher, since many of us expect Obameinfuhrer's 'accomplishments' will not be good ones. Why hurt his feelings by refusing a book deal after-the-fact?
A well-placed anonymous source of mine has acquired a copy of the book dust cover art for me. It is not very surprising, but it IS descriptive of the substance of the man. Enjoy!

At the White House.......
Last Tuesday, as President Obama got off the helicopter in front of the White House, he was carrying a baby piglet under each arm.
The squared away Marine guard snaps to attention, Salutes and says: “Nice pigs, sir.”
The President replies “These are not pigs…these are authentic Arkansas Razorback Hogs. I got one for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and I got one for Speaker of The House Nancy Pelosi.”
The squared away Marine again snaps to attention, Salutes and says, ”Excellent trade, sir.”
