Is Barack Obama a Gay Muslim Jewish Irishman?
This is my first post (finally, after much arm cajoling) so I decided to make it an attention grabbing one.

Things I have learned about Alcohol
Location, Location, Location: Just because it’s not kosher in the United States doesn’t mean it’s not kosher in Europe. This is true with several different brands most prominently Baileys Irish Cream which can be found with a B’datz hechsher abroad.
