AceRimmer Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Obambi calls for "Shared Sacrifice" while Moochelle, the kids and M-in-L fly off to Africa on our dime? How quaint... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguine Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 This is way beyond tone-deafness. They simply don't care what the voters think.
