I know I should be writing about the election, but I think we could all use some comic relief. The New Yorker has published an excerpt of Obama’s much delayed memoir, A Promised Land, and one particular passage cries out for deconstruction. The passage concerns Obama’s efforts to get the Affordable Care Act through Congress, both houses of which the Democrats controlled.
Despite having grown up in Hawaii, I have never learned to sail a boat; it wasn’t a pastime my family could afford. Still, for the next three and a half months, I felt the way I imagine sailors feel on the open seas after a brutal storm has passed. The work remained arduous and sometimes monotonous, made tougher by the need to patch leaks and bail water. But, for a span of time, we had in us the thankfulness of survivors, propelled in our daily tasks by a renewed belief that we might make it to port after all.
The first sentence is pure Obama, subtly anti-American and self-pitying. I say this from experience. At 19, I was the sailing instructor at a camp for inner-city orphans, the majority of them “of color,” and they all learned to sail. At the time I was living in a Newark housing project with my widowed mother, but I had learned to sail at 15 while working as a dishwasher at a YMCA camp. And this was New Jersey, not Hawaii. Sorry, Barry, but America is a much more open society than you and Michelle imagine it to be.

The Kenyan from Indonesia should be in Gitmo, but he has too many Republicans protecting him.
It is classified “fiction,” right?
Exactly. Unprincipled emoting RINOs with false guilt. They lay with dogs.
Evil fraud
Destined to be a bestseller in all 57 states.
I don’t know about elsewhere but in the Barnes & Noble near me they put a yuge poster of B. Hussein Obama’s mug. I thought “this is to remind people to vote Dem but he’s not running.” It was for his book. Could be seen by passing cars on the road, it was so large. Other side inside was another poster of his face. Barf.
LOL
But don't give the Dems more ideas. They are setting up PR,DC and others now. They could add 3 splitup names of the current California and get on a roll. Maybe Northern and Southern Rhode Island. All would support the SCOTUS packing.
BUT,BUT,BUT, I thought BFF Biden was his first mate?
What happened?
And 0bama only campaigned for his BFF, once or twice?
Did they have a spat?
Fuck Obama
Obozzo is pure trash.
Good grief, what more does anyone need to know?
Did Biden sniff Sasha’s hair?
I think we know more than enough about that character....
