Oh, we know Barack is good at telling a story:

Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God?

Ugh. Sometimes I wish there was a way to get Netflix without Netflix original programming. About 90% of their original stuff, besides being crap, is commie-pinko. So far the 10% that's good has been worth ignoring Bill Nye and all the other progressive stuff they push, but at some point I'm gonna just read more books.

Wasn't this already done as a spin off from All in the Family?.
Movin' On Up or The Jeffersons or something like that?
No originality left in Hollywood.
Of course the sitcom that came closet to co-starring a wookie was Alf. I just can't see the Obamas being nearly as funny.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Barack's hairline is receding.  And he seem shorter.

I currently pay about $25 monthly for Netflix and Hulu combined ... I'm wondering if there is a single channel that would provide more content for about the same cost ... any suggestions ?

Twitchy says the pay to Obama will be in the high eight figures.  Maybe they plan on donating most of that to the Clinton Foundation and other charities, maybe invite a few friends like Donna Brazile to work at some cushy job.

I predict complete failure.  Since they have no talent....
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

He's a beloved two-term president. He's got a built in audience.

He's likely not going to disappear anytime soon.
