    SCAMMERS...

    'BARRY' OBAMA is a made-up character just as the fictional hard-bodied golfer JORDAN BAKER in THE GREAT GATZBY!!! Fittingly both can claim the description "...incurably dishonest" JORDAN for her 'cheating' at golf like D^CKHEAD; OBAMA for his frequent inventions in his personal life. JOHN'the-old-fool'McCAIN strains credulity by abandoning his first wife after an accident to relish in his 2nd wife's beer money fortune and some rather inane decisions as a SENATURD. WITH EITHER SENATURD THE CHOICES FOR PRESIDENT ARE THE MOST ODIOUS IN OUR HISTORY!!! But of course - a Christian church is the true forge for 'testing' the mettle of these 2 CHRIST-LIKE CHAMPIONS. Ha. Both these 2 + several others should be selling AMWAY PRODUCTS - another scam on the AMERIKAN PUBLIC!!!
