Seriously?

BAWAAAHAAAAAAAAAAA

Since you're such a huge Kiss and Gene Simmons fan I'm sure you're aware he had a similar upbringing to Obama except instead of living off a government job he actually got up on stage before a judge and jury and practiced his craft. Although must admit Shannon and Obama are twins when it comes to spending money without thought and throwing a baseball.

One difference is Simmons works for and supports our military because he wants to not because he's their boss and gets a check. Simmons is not Presidential material IMO but light years ahead of what we have now. Only person worse now would be Jimmy Carter. But then again they're the same foreign policy wise. Both 'get it' which, I guess means being pro-Palestine and anti-Israel.
