Departing Aide Declares Obama ‘Greatest Leader this Country Has Ever Had’
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 2 October 2010 | John Semmens

Posted on 10/02/2010 4:28:17 PM PDT by John Semmens

In a tearful departing statement, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said he regrets having to leave the side of “the greatest leader to have ever served this nation in its most trying of times.” Anticipating objections from those who might be tempted to label Washington at Valley Forge or Lincoln’s battle to preserve the union more trying circumstances, Emanuel pointed out that “both were white men living in a white man’s world.

Neither had to face the unending barrage of racist criticism that President Obama has had to face.”

Emanuel added that “it is President Obama’s greatness that makes it feasible for me to take on other duties. While it has been gratifying for me to bask in the reflected glow of his awesomeness, I cannot allow the needs of the citizens of Chicago to be neglected now that Mayor Daley is stepping down from his lifetime tenure.”

The one-time resident of Chicago announced that he will assume the role of Mayor of Chicago as soon as the esidency ordinance has been revised to declare him eligible.

An easy way to free the snag is, get on the ping list like I did and watch the noobs get drawn in.

Hey guys & gals, this is satire by the talented John Semmens. I've been punk'd enough times by him to always read the by-line.

And I have a bad habit of reading posts without checking the by-line. John got me again. Very nicely done.

Your satire is deftly deposited, but only a bare half-step ahead of reality. Keep running, John, or you’ll be overtaken.

What racism? I saw a lot of disagreement on his policy stances but not one of them was "well, I disagree with him because black people have are stupid"

Emmanuel is a moron.

“Alas, the White House is “crack” free.”

You’ve obviously overlooked Michelle.

Exactly!

JS’s threads are way more funner when yer in on the joke.

I love reading the replies before I reply.

He gets some serious nibbles...;o)

Thank you! I used to dabble quite a bit with graphics but have taken an unscheduled sabbatical for reasons unknown.
