Obama and the Newspaper Boy by Squeeky
Once upon a time, there was a man named Obama, who owned a Baloney sandwich restaurant, The House of Baloney. He served the very best Baloney sandwiches, made from the very finest Baloney, imported all the way from Hawaii, or Connecticut, and maybe even Kenya. People came from far and wide to get his Baloney. They would say, “Ohhh, but this is such Good Baloney!” They were so fanatic, people even started calling them “O-buts.”
Then one day, a little newspaper boy bought some baloney sandwiches, and when he got home, he discovered his change was $2.00 short! So he went back to Obama and he said, “I want my $2.00, please.”Obama said, “Get lost kid, you bother me!”
Undeterred, the newspaper boy sat outside the House of Baloney with a sign that said, “ I want my $2.00.” He sat there in the rain and the sleet and the snow, for months. At first, everyone thought the newspaper boy was just crazy. Obama swore he had given him the proper change. He put a PICTURE of the cash register tape and deposit slip on the Internet. He even had people swear it was a true picture.
But, as time went on, people began to get suspicious of Obama. Why was he letting this poor little newspaper boy, who might indeed be crazy, just sit out there in the rain, with his poor little sign, exposed to the elements, and sad. And what if, just what if, Obama had kept the $2.00 and not deposited it in the bank. People started not coming to the House of Baloney.
The O-buts defended Obama. “It’s his restaurant”, they said. “He doesn’t have to legally give the kid the $2.00 if he doesn’t want to.” That was true enough, but by this time, Obama had already lost 25% of his sales. Some people said, “Just give the kid his $2.00 and quit being a jerk!” “No!” said the O-buts. “This kid is so crazy, that even if you give him the $2.00, he won’t go away!”
So it went on for over two years. People now began to wonder, “Was there really something wrong with Obama?” Because he had lost a lot more in business than the $2.00. They reasoned that even if he didn’t owe it, that something was fishy, because there really was no good reason for a sane businessman not to just cough up the two bucks, and move on.
But still the newspaper boy sits there, with his ragged, little homemade sign, the “I want my $2.00″ smeared by rain, and running like two day old mascara, and the cardboard all wrinkly and fraying at the edges. Inside, Obama sits, twidding his thumbs, and hoping business will pick up.

Actually it is good.
Makes the point economists struggle to explain every day.
I really like it!
Oh thank you!!! It is my very first thing here! I have been waiting all night to see if it would get approved!!!
If it weren’t so late I am sure it would have gotten more notice too.
“Logical Phallacy” was fun too.
If you are Squeaky Fromme now would be the time to say so.
Ya,I liked that one too.
Welllll. I have always been Squeeky, since I was a little girl. Or The Mouse. Soooo, its a long story. But Fromm is a psychologist I like. Soooo, just get me started on how differently WOMEN are treated than men one day when I am LESS MELLOW!!!!
I like the analogies. Good parable Squeeky, I think I may forward this to a few folks I know if you don’t mind.
Oh no, go ahead. I have already it at Dr. Taitz’s website. And on Gretawire. And Dr. Kates. And Chalices. Plus it is on my website:

I want people to see how stupid it is for Mobamba not to cough it up. OHHH, I haven’t called him that in 3 days trying to be polite to the STUPID OBOTS I was fighting with.
Thank you!! Did you like the one my friend Belladonna did??? whatever it was called. That is her first poem she has ever put up.
When I saw on your blog that you used the name Squeeky Fromm, I was slightly taken aback.
But there is a lot more to that story. The real Squeaky was sent to prison JUST BECAUSE SHE WAS A WOMAN!!! John Hinckley got set to a mental hospital.
Poor Squeaky didn’t shoot anybody and never hurt anybody. That Charlie Manson person was mean to her and abused her in very bad ways. She even took the bullet out of her gun. Nobody was mean to John Hinckley or treated him bad. And he actually shot and hurt people.
Either they BOTH should have gone to prison or they BOTH should have gone to mental hospitals. That’s only fair. BUT NOOOO! He was a MAN and his family had money. She was poor and a WOMAN.
Now how is that fair??? Most people don’t think about things like that.
So, with my name, I get to tell people about that and about somebody named Fromm, who was very famous and who said most people are afraid of being free. Which is another story.
The gun she pointed at the President was loaded, she just didn't have a round chambered in the .45 automatic for it to fire. How many individuals know they are not to aim a pistol at the President? She does not get a free pass for arbitrarily deciding not to kill him.
Charlie wanted to be the Antichrist and you claim he was mean to her. He was mean to The World and Squeaky Fromme was wickedly drawn to his type of character.
While it may be true that John Hinckley deserved life in prison, due process was followed in both cases. She was not unduly persecuted because she was female. She had a much broader record of abhorrent behavior and criminal activity than John Hinckley. She deserved a much greater punishment than she received.
If you are the real Squeaky Fromme, I will understand your attempt at rationalization of the very poor decisions in your life.
Newspaper Boy needs to understand his responsibility to himself. Good Grief
NOOO! I am not that one!
Read here, my second blog I just started in the ABOUT PART.

But you do get it:” While it may be true that John Hinckley deserved life in prison”-—Yes, they both should have gone to prison, or they both should have gone to mental hospitals. Plus she never hurt anybody.
You are missing the point of the story. Notice how I said at first everybody thought the newspaper boy was crazy??? But then the longer it dragged on, there has to be something fishy going on on Obama’s side.
In September 2008, I might have been an OBOT, if I didn’t just COULDN’T STAND OBAMA. But then by 2010. I would have to be crazy NOT to be a Birther.
I am having a big fight with STUPID OBOTS at gretawire here, where I explain more of it:
