What do you give the POTUS? Russia. With Europe on a side dish.

What do you get the leader of the free world as a present for his birthday?

1) Some Pretzels
2) A real Dog
3) A bomber Jacket
4) a Segway
5) Some whitewash
6) An invitation to a Trailer Trash party

Easier just to drop $20 into a card and let him buy his own surely?

1. Sun Tzu's The Art of War
2. A phone that rings every morning at 3 a.m., as a reminder of his promise to the American people. And every time he doesn't answer it, he gets an electric shock.

A sixty-five inch HDTV with a long-playing constantly-repeating digital loop of all the promises he made when he was campaigning that have turned out to be just fart noises in a hurricane.

A sense of progressivism.

Someone for him to nominate as his replacement who'll actually change things and actually give us hope instead of blowing smoke up our asses like everyone has for the last 40 years.

how about the ability to recognize when the other party isn't interested in negotiating, and he should do what he knows is right instead of giving in?

How about a break?

OK, so maybe you don't like his policies, or you're disappointed that he's not the Great Liberal Reformer you hoped he would be. But he doesn't deserve to be rated as an abomination for everything he does.

For example, he got a minor spanking for appearing on The View. While that may not have been the gold standard for journalistic appearances, (although, given today's level of journalism, it isn't too far off) it's not like he went on MTV News and answered questions like "Boxers or briefs?" You know, like Bill Clinton did. But even though the MTV interview was a much less serious political forum, Clinton didn't get beat for it the way Obama got beat for appearing on The View.

Then there's this all-but-forgotten TV appearance that nobody cared about:



For his birthday, why don't we let him buy a dog, say a cuss word, fuss over his daughters, etc. and not act like it's the worst thing a president has ever done?

I tend to agree with you on this. Especially being able to fuss over his daughters. I think he should be able smoke if he feels like it.

Thank you for the video, I missed it, I appreciated it. But I'm not sure if you are comparing it with Clinton on MTV, which seems a stretch to me.

Leader of what?

From: [identity profile] sophia-sadek.livejournal.com
If Obama is the leader of the free world, he shouldn't be wasting his time in Washington. He should get back to where he belongs amidst the free, not amidst the incarcerated and the cowardly of America.

As for his birthday, I was thinking of a gift card to amazon.com.

Dailyquote:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
