Obama To Take Break From Stumping To Preside Over United States

HARTFORD, CT—Following a speech tomorrow afternoon in support of Senate hopeful Richard Blumenthal, top Democratic Party member Barack Obama is expected to take advantage of a brief lull in his hectic schedule to govern the United States of America, sources reported Thursday. "Barack should have a little bit of free time in the car when we travel between the get-out-the-vote rally in East Hartford and the fundraising dinner for [Connecticut gubernatorial candidate] Dan Malloy," said Obama aide Lisa McMaster, admitting that most of the business of being leader of the free world would have to wait for the few days between the end of the midterm election cycle and the start of the 2010 presidential campaign. "Those 15 or so minutes should allow him to skim the past week’s national security briefings, sign a few pieces of legislation, and shoot a 45-second call to South Korean prime minister Kim Hwang-sik to hammer out a free-trade pact." McMaster added that if everything goes perfectly, Obama might have a moment between the dinner's salad and entrée courses to authorize a missile strike on suspected al-Qaeda sites in Yemen.

He is the lead singer for Living Color right?

19 Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

I'd just like to find out where all the protestors are who were yammering on about "Bush on the ranch" and "deficits" and "Endless war".

There is an impression he's spent more time working on keeping congress in their jobs than he has spent on jobs for the average American...

I actually agree with Aizle. He's POTUS, but he's also the figurehead of the Democratic Party. Part of his job is to prepare and execute an agenda. To do this effectively he needs as much support in Congress as he can get. He needs to be both and get it all done. That's politics in the US. It is what it is. /shrug

A President should be above campaigning as their first duty is to the American people not any party.

Not to mention the cheeziness of apparently posting an Onion spoof as "news".

That is a very nice, historically inaccurate, unrealistic, sentiment.

Funny, I would have though that anyone could have read that and understand it was a moral perspective and not anything else. I suppose not. Here is a clue - I used the word "should". See I didn't even make you buy it yourself.

So you just felt like being redundant?

Damn you! You made me look for the latest from Cindy Sheehan. She's still at it, only now there's not so much publicity. Make of that what you will.
