Well, the new Newsweek cover has convinced certain mouthbreathers that Obama has come out

Not going to link to the site we all know I am talking about, but lots of posters are referencing Larry Sinclair, Obama's children being from another man, the first lady being, well just some really evil comments about her, actually.

God, I hate freepers.
