6. If your one and sole concern is hte party of the president, yeah, things are great

Oct 2015

You wanna say Obama's been busting his ass to keep the whole thing from falling over completely? That's fair, yeah, no problem with saying that.

But if you're gonna argue that everything is fantastic? Then brother, you and I need to step outside, and you can have a chat with some of the homeless people in the alley out back. Tell them that everything's hunky-dory. Then we'll go visit the peopel grieving at This Week's School Shooting™ and you tell them hey! everything's fine! Let's go visit some of those refugees that are filtering in and you can shake your finger in their face that they ought ot be more grateful we're bringign liberty to their contry. Then we can go to your neighbor's house, where mom and dad are both working hteir asses off but the debt keeps growing, and let's hear you tell them how fantastic everything is.

I'll give credit where it's due, but I'm not going ot beleivethat president obama is a fucking wizard who has made everything whole and perfect and unquestionably wonderful. 'Cause he's not, and it's not.
