Tuesday, December 1, 2009 | Kristinn

Live from New York...it's Barack Obama!

On the banks of the Hudson River at West Point, Obama will give his military strategy for Afghanistan, based on the tactical genius of Capt. Spaulding, aka Groucho Marx:

Hello, I Must Be Going

Oh dear, he is coming, At last he's here.

(Spaulding) Hello, I must be going, I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going. I'm glad I came, but just the same I must be going. La La.

(Mrs. Rittenhouse) For my sake you must stay. If you should go away, You'd spoil this party I am throwing.

(Spaulding) I'll stay a week or two, I'll stay the summer thru, But I am telling you, I must be going.

(All) Before you go, Will you oblige us, And tell us of your deeds so glowing?

(Spaulding) I'll do anything you say, In fact I'll even stay!

(All) Good!

(Spaulding) But I must be going.

The SOB does not look at the camera to speak to the American people, but he does when he speaks to the Muslim world.

and then it's right back to the tennis match.

Obama is not used to giving speeches that aren’t interrupted with orchastrated applause. I think he might actually be boring himself to death.

This is a fatal attempt to appease all sides which can not be done. By giving the troops he appeases the middle but by giving a go home date he appeases his far left kook base.

Correct. Its obvious at DU tonight he's done. One lefty is frustrated by the attacks on Obama:

Sorry, I must be on the wrong website. I must have accidentally logged onto free republic. With friends like these, does Obama need enemies?
