But I could be wrong.

Just like he cut SS.... Oh... Wait.


I mean just like he went after Colorado and Washington's marijuana laws.... Oh wait.


I really mean just how he defended DOMA..... Oh.... Damn.



I guess all those times he didn't do something that everyone on DU was CERTAIN he was going to do (because Obama=Bush, don't ya know) don't count.


Don't count your cruise missiles before they launch.
