I am enjoying the first really cool evening since May out on my deck, reading about a supernova that will be visible with my amateur telescope, drinking a fine French bordeaux and listening to the phenomenal Herbie Hancock Possibilities album.
This is a rare moment for me lately. I used to enjoy evenings like this all the time. But the doldrum days of Democratic Party rule has us in that listless inertia that is so awkward for Americans.
The last great Democrat was John Fitzgerald Kennedy. He stared down the Russians, cut tax rates to kindle the economy, and inspired Americans to go to the Moon. What a leader. Sure, he was a philanderer. But he even excelled at salaciousness.
I tuned into the local progressive talk radio station today and they were actually talking about abandoning Barack Obama; not voting for him in 2012. That discussion was more melodic to me than Christina Aguilera on that Herbie Hancock collection -- you have got to hear this album. In fact, get the video version to enjoy the unfiltered phenomenon in Gods gift of human talent.
Anyway, the progressives are embarrassed at their 2008 hero for not being more important than a Republican primary debate when he recently asked to address the United States House of Representatives and Speaker Boehner handed the President a rain check. After the President finally delivered his jobs bill address, the Democratically-controlled Senate voted it down.
Even the useful idiots who are occupying Wall Street do not carry Barack Obama on their shoulders. The loyally liberal late-night talk show hosts are now daring to joke about the impotence of this non-great president. Inappropriate as it may be, I take pleasure in hearing such dissidence to the throne (just a moment while I sip another swirl of bordeaux from my stemware).
The most memorable and historic quote from John F. Kennedy is, Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country. Barack Obama doesnt own a quote. He simply does not own one.
There are two legs under the stool of President Obamas domestic and foreign policies: blame George W. Bush for all the ills of the Universe, and spend an unfathomable amount of money. Having emptied his own clip into the economic beast, even his muzzy sidekick Joe Biden no longer thinks the old formula will work. Imagine the fortitude that will be required of Obamas successor to avoid blaming his administration for the debt, joblessness, inflation, and constricting bureaucracy that he/she will inherit.
White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley is the first significant staff member to publicly discuss moving along after the 2012 elections. It is right about now that President Obama will begin seriously considering what his premature legacy will be. I mean, what could possibly go into the Obama Presidential Library besides his birth certificate?
My absolute favorite weather moment is what I am feeling right now; that first brisk hint of Fall. Cold wind that pushes through evergreen needles has a sound all its own.
Maybe he’ll have a presidential book case instead located in the basement of some suitable establishment in Chicago.
a used crack pipe and some roach clips, throw in his coming striped jail uniform...yeah thats the ticket!
“Eat your peas.”
How can you have a presidential library when all your personal records are sealed?>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Easy...just make a bunch of messianic crap up , and put it next to a shrine similar to that of Elvis in Graceland.This would also mean making the toilets all Muslim with a small can of water close to the left hand side of the John.
I dont care if they replace him- at least he will be stopped from doing any more damage
I especially fear what will happen between November and January when he loses
He has several quotes. "Get in their faces" - "They bring a knife, we bring a gun". All his other quotes are whatever someone programed into the teleprompter.
Yeah, but what the author meant is quotes that can be put in a presidential library. He has none of those
Will one wing be devoted to the various teleprompters he has used?
there is this site...

ain't technology wonderful, it can catch every "claim / lie" you may have uttered.
The Democrats are going to put up their unvetted Obama for the 2012 election? They can’t come up with a vetted candidate?
Exactly! What library? Obama will be erased as the 44th president! The true 44th president will be the one elected in 2012 and it won’t be obama!
Indictments, transcripts,....
Obamanation is the antithesis of this quote. It's a gimme gimme gimme world. Cancel my debts. Gimme free college tuition. And give me enough free cash so I don't gotta work and still have enough to live and party on...
Teleprompter scripts.
Reminds me of a book ;)
“Oh yes, well as soon as I heard I went straight round to see them, yesterday afternoon. You hadn’t exactly gone out of your way to call attention to them, had you? I mean, like actually telling anybody or anything.”
“But the plans were on display ...”
“On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.”
“That’s the display department.”
“With a flashlight.”
“Ah, well the lights had probably gone.”
“So had the stairs.”
“But look, you found the notice didn’t you?”
“Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard’.”
“he fked Marlyn Monroe in the White House”
All his human failings aside, JFK—quite unlike WJC—at least had good taste in women.
