AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

...seriously? They're all going on about how the man's a one-term senator who's never made a political difference on his life, and this recession is his fault?

Mr. Limbaugh, don't be an idiot. You only end up kicking yourself in the ass one way and in the balls the other.

Yes, really.
