    @Rosenkavalier

    I can't help but jump on this line:

    Rosenkavalier: "If only his books weren't self-serving, truth-bending, and not particularly well written. You'll note that Hillary has also written books."

    Um, yeah, and Hillary Clinton's books were ghost-written. Obama's weren't.

    No word from Rosenkavalier as to whether Clinton's books were self-serving, truth-bending or particularly well-written.
