Yes, President Obama really did want this job…

February 13, 2009

Though right now it is hard to imagine why.

Isn’t fulfilling your dream of being President of the United States right now kind of like fulfilling your dream of being a number one NFL draft pick…and then realizing that means being the quarterback of the Detroit Lions?


President Obama has been praising Abraham Lincoln a great deal recently, acknowledging that without Lincoln’s presidency, a black man might never have been elected President. With all due respect to and admiration for Lincoln, without George W’s efforts, a black man might not have been elected President.


Too easy but…

Republicans are getting a little tired of the Obama-Lincoln comparisons. In fact today John McCain stood up and said “President Obama, I knew Abraham Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln was a friend of mine, President Obama, you’re no Abraham Lincoln.”
