From the major US media.
“His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshall Al Hadji Dr. Buraq Hussein Obama, VC, DSO, MC, King of Washington DC, Lord of all the Beast of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea and Conqueror of the American Empire in General and Kenya in Particular has declared that he is moderately optimistic about a deal!”
Can someone add a picture of Obama with one of those big hats with a big over sized eagle, a sash and big medals? He is after all “Commander of Chiefs” and in charge of all those “Corpse men.”
Side issue; you wrote moderately optimistic, which is how I know the phrase. Obeyme said modestly optimistic.
I guess both are common...no ? Yes??? Or did the idiot mispeak ?
