accusation. It's pure fiction.
- Then, how do you answer for the photos?
- Right wing blogo-smear, that's how.
I could stand here and perpetuate
the rumor that as a young man...
the president had a gambling addiction,
but I'm got going to sink to their level.

Leeches!
Why it's important to vote.
Many brave soldiers

I can't read my writing.

Went to take a leak half an hour ago.
