"The challenges are real! They are Sirius and many! But they will be met!" Obama
Well I can't say I didn't feel some YAAY HAHA when he took the oath, clumsily. You'd think he'd be able to repeat stuff by now! ;p Let's hope he is a catalyst for some change at least, those are some interesting promises. And don't get me wrong, I do appreciate the positive symbolism of his presidency. A few days ago, I saw a bit of Blazing Saddles for the first time, and I really had to chuckle at the symbolism at work, the synopsis of that movie:
"To ruin a western town, a corrupt political boss appoints a black sheriff,
who promptly becomes his most formidable adversary."
All the best Mr. President.
who promptly becomes his most formidable adversary."
All the best Mr. President.
That's kind've funny. Saw a still from Blazing Saddles recently, in which the black sheriff leads a dazed looking Mongo out of jail. For some reason it really reminded me of Obama and Bush! Wonder have many others noted the Obama/Blazing Saddles parallel?
ReplyDeleteRegardless of cynical/hopeful commentary on Barak’s ability upon the assumption of his administrative duties, it is good to finally have a literate, articulate president in the Whitehouse!

Obama's clumsy oath was because of the H word. Hussein hadn't been said yet, so Barry Sotereo aka B.S. God Barrak H. Obama spoke out of turn.
ReplyDeleteHighlighted H, repeat synch
rofl at B.S.
ReplyDeleteI agree it's awesome to get the retard out of the white house, but I can't help but laugh at the "articulate" aspect of Obama: I speak... with pauses... to appear... more eloquent... it doesn't... work... with everybody.
Chris Rock: He speaks so well! He's so well spoken. I mean he really speaks so well!' Like that's a compliment, sh*t. 'He speaks so well' is not a compliment, okay? 'He speaks so well' is some sh*t you say about retarded people that can talk. What do you mean he speaks so well? He's a fuc*ing educated man! How the fu*k you expect him to sound, you dirty motherfuc*er? 'He speaks so well.' What are you talking about? What voice were you expecting to come out of his mouth? 'Imma drop me a bomb today', 'I be Pwez o dent!'." (about Colin Powell, applies to BS/BO too.)
