"Secret Income 14?" re: extra income "Obama makes" every month commercial? [View all]

Last edited Sat Jan 4, 2014, 01:06 PM - Edit history (1)

I was half asleep this morning when I heard this weird commercial on WGN in Chicago. It involved a dialogue between 2 guys. The first one says, in a very belligerent, angry manner - "Did you hear OBAMA is making a special income (I think that's the way it was phrased) every month?" Second guy responds" How is OBAMA getting that money?" more anger. Then the first guy says to google up this "Special Income 14" website and then he (second guy) can learn how to get it, too.

I'm paraphrasing the exact words but, in essence, that's what they said - regarding "special" monthly income or "Extra" monthly income.

They referred to President Obama in an insulting manner like he was ripping people off with some scam. Anyone else hear this?

I just edited in a corrected title ("secret" from "special&quot as I heard the ad again - here is the only internet connection I could find and it doesn't make sense:
