Live from New York...it's Barack Obama!
On the banks of the Hudson River at West Point, Obama will give his military strategy for Afghanistan, based on the tactical genius of Capt. Spaulding, aka Groucho Marx:
Oh dear, he is coming, At last he's here.
(Spaulding) Hello, I must be going, I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going. I'm glad I came, but just the same I must be going. La La.
(Mrs. Rittenhouse) For my sake you must stay. If you should go away, You'd spoil this party I am throwing.
(Spaulding) I'll stay a week or two, I'll stay the summer thru, But I am telling you, I must be going.
(All) Before you go, Will you oblige us, And tell us of your deeds so glowing?
(Spaulding) I'll do anything you say, In fact I'll even stay!
(All) Good!
(Spaulding) But I must be going.
Thank you ... I’m dumb about medals, etc.
Could you explain the reference ?
He gave a sissy speech in front of kids who have more Bravery, Honor and Love of Country than he will ever have.
