Count Down Til Obama Is Gone

There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Seems like it's taking forever.  Or is it just because other presidents (especially R's) didn't monkeywrench things on their way out the door.  They  were mature and professional enough to do everything to ensure a smooth transition.  Whereas Clinton and Obama (and their administrations) have acted like spoiled losers.

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.

I'd give $1000 to administer the oath.

And $5000 to administer the boot.

Yeah, from what I've been reading today, he's really going full bore on the monkeywrenchng. Though I also read that Trump is taking Friday off and then getting his pen out on Monday at 0900. :)

That, or as soon as he finishes the oath he'll pull a stack of prewritten executive orders out of his pocket and sign them right then and there.

This one looks a little cleaner.

I'm keeping him in a little window on the work computer for the rest of Obama's presidency. And by "the rest of Obama's presidency," I mean this morning.  :lol:



Less than an hour!

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Just finished his speech. Obama actually looked composed and congratulatory when they shook hands, but OH MY - if looks could kill, Michelle's expression would have set Trump aflame. Man did she look pissed about what he said in his speech.  =D

And Obama just boarded Marine One a chopper. Fleeing the scene.

Thank God.

It's Morning in America again!  =D

Did anyone notice Hillary - still with that same "creepy grandma" grin on her face? What does she use to keep it there - super glue?

She reminds me SO much of "The Joker" from one of the "Batman" movies . . .

The media has been gushing for the last 8 years about what a fashion icon Michelle has been. Did anyone notice the difference today?

One thing I must confess: that thrill Chris Matthews felt running down his leg? I finally felt it today, when I saw Obama ride off into the sunset.

Pretty sure that's what the couch was upholstered in.  Granddad found deal like that fairly often.

Actually...it does look a bit like a moving blanket, doesn't it?
