Ok, people, I'm in a great mood this morning.
I got up, got dressed, came in to work, and saw the headlines glaring out at me from the newspaper machine in the front lobby.
There, boldly emblazoned for all the world to see, were these four words: "OBAMA: 'I SCREWED UP'".
What lingering vestiges of sleep were rolled away from my body as I felt the laughter bubbling up. It was all I could do to keep from hitting the floor laughing. Needless to say, my day was made.
The article in the KC Star went on to say this:
"President Barack Obama scrambled Tuesday to regain control of his political message. A series of tax and vetting scandals has forced one of Obama's most important nominees to withdraw and raised questions about the new president's central campaign pledge to change politics as usual."
Change politics as usual? Who really believes that? Obama is a graduate of the Chicago School of Dirty Politics. He is not going to be the one to change the political scene, except maybe for the worse.
"In response, Obama -- fearing a lingering ethics dispute would undercut his claims to moral high ground and cripple his presidency in just its second week -- abruptly abandoned his nomination fight for Tom Daschle and a second major appointee who also failed to pay all her taxes. 'I screwed up,' Obama declared.
Bwaahahahahahahahahaha!
Well, at least the mighty messiah's proving to be honest some of the time. Yeah, he screwed up all right, and this won't be the last time. Folks, methinks our new president is proving to be a mixture of Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford, mixed liberally with the arrogance of the Clintons. I can't wait to see the next screw-up. This presidency is gonna be a goldmine of laughs.
