I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by some of the more left of the left who are constantly upset that Obama isn’t pounding tables and acting dramatic, but I am given he was nicknamed by some as no-drama Obama which was one of the best things about the guy. There are certainly valid criticisms of his Presidency and I respect those criticisms in general, but John Cole sums up my general take on it here:
All I know is that if Obama doesn’t stop the oil leak with his massive Kenyan penis and then give a rousing FDR/Trumanesque speech delivered using a grade 7.5 language level that gives Chris Matthews a blue-vein hard-on and then personally scrubs every drop of oil from the gulf without hurting BP’s profits and making sure every oil worker has a job, I’m out. I mean, come on. That isn’t asking too much, is it? And why don’t we have gay marriage and a cure for cancer? What a loser! If only he hadn’t turned off his progressive base, all this could happen. Ed Schultz told me so.
And he better wear a flag lapel pin while doing it.
There’s actually a good substantive straight bit above it, but that was particularly enjoyable.
