Thanks for the potshot saying we haven’t created a job in six months – still bitter about not getting Biden’s slot? At least I’m not a quitter.

    It's not like the Great Wall of China, but with my name on it, maybe we can try to compete with them on the Winter Olympic games...

    The writing may be on the wall, but just note that I'm not legally responsible ... because I'm not 'signing on the dotted line'.

    Obama is still finding the new changes to facebook confusing and clearly has not mastered the art of writing on one's wall.

    Well, if Congress won't give me a jobs bill to sign, I'll just sign this wall.
