Assuming it was a defection, you have to stop and think, a highly visible person, on a highly interesting project, from a nation looking for an excuse asks to defect. Who exactly considers this a good idea? First off from the moment he disappears they'll blame us, which they did.

        This is Obama's fault. He is the Commander and Chief of the military, he knows what he is doing is not good for us. He wants World War 3. He probably wants a nuclear war. It is overwhelmingly clear that he is trying his hardest to destroy America as fast as he can, soon we will be a bombed up third world country rittled with tribal warfare, extreme poverty, disease, and absolute tyranny. Obama wants America to be like his home country.

              So he wants America to be like America? The guy was born in Hawaii... If you're trying to refer to Kenya, then you have to say his FATHER's home country (Can't say his "parents", because his mother is from Kansas).

                          I think I've asked this before... Do you just believe EVERY conspiracy out there, or is there some kind of criteria you go by? I mean, does it have to be related to certain topics, or have a certain level of idiocy? It just seems to me that you're ignoring the really fun conspiracies, and only going for the ones that have been thoroughly falsified. If you want people to laugh WITH you instead of laughing AT you, I suggest going for the UFO conspiracies... They give everyone a chuckle, and if you add a few emotes, you can just make people think you're kidding.

                            World War 3 has been on it's way for a while now, much like ww1, ww2 left the seeds for the next one. It's mostly just a matter of seeing which one sprout to push the world into war again. But, here's to hoping I'm living somewhere of no strategic importance when it happens.

                                  Gosh, all the millions wasted, since a simple pizza boy from Columbus, Ohio revealed Obama's secret. I guess you found his carelessly junked receipts for spending all that money when you were dumpster diving?

                                      I think I've asked this before... Do you just believe EVERY conspiracy out there, or is there some kind of criteria you go by? I mean, does it have to be related to certain topics, or have a certain level of idiocy? It just seems to me that you're ignoring the really fun conspiracies, and only going for the ones that have been thoroughly falsified. If you want people to laugh WITH you instead of laughing AT you, I suggest going for the UFO conspiracies... They give everyone a chuckle, and if you add a few emotes, you can just make people think you're kidding.

                                      All I know is that Obama is not American born, and he is trying to destroy the country. Its impossible for me to not see that, even if I tried to think like you, it would be too artificial and outrageous to actually believe what I was thinking. The mindset of a liberal is clinical, cold, medicated, dumbed-down, and illogical.

                                        This is Obama's fault. He is the Commander and Chief of the military, he knows what he is doing is not good for us. He wants World War 3. He probably wants a nuclear war. It is overwhelmingly clear that he is trying his hardest to destroy America as fast as he can, soon we will be a bombed up third world country rittled with tribal warfare, extreme poverty, disease, and absolute tyranny. Obama wants America to be like his home country.

                                        I thought that Ohio had some inteligence, you're obviosuly way down the curve. Can you actually post something nearly believable, because your current crop make it *too* easy.

                                          World War 3 has been on it's way for a while now, much like ww1, ww2 left the seeds for the next one. It's mostly just a matter of seeing which one sprout to push the world into war again. But, here's to hoping I'm living somewhere of no strategic importance when it happens.

                                          That'll be the USA, after Obama has trashed it.
