In
the political world Obama once he leaves office will be as useful to us as an
appendix is to a human being
The
only thing an appendix can do is become infected and if not removed, burst and
threaten one’s well being
He
will become like the Marvin K. Moody who refuses to go
Unable
to accept that on Air Force One he can no longer his luggage and entourage stow
Usually
presidents who lose or whose legacy touted by their clone is rejected
Get
out of the swamp of D.C. faster than a fighter pilot from a shot up plane is
ejected
But
under the guise of wanting to remain in the swamp until their daughter finishes
school
We
will have to endure him on the streets of the swamp or on TV complaining about
the acts of Trump from the office he once ruled
Mao
had the Long March to save his party from the talons of Chiang Kai-Shek
Obama
is on the Long Goodbye trying so hard to save his legacy from the Trump coming
reject
A
farewell letter to the American people that should be called the Grand Illusion
A
statistic here and statistic there that shows when it comes to reality he still
suffers from terminal delusion
Add
to that 29 memos from Cabinet and top officials extolling the Obama’s administration
resounding success
Glossing
over the doubling of the national debt, open borders, growing racial divide, uncontained ISIS and
the Obamacare total mess
Like
an infomercial that keeps shouting in order to induce you to buy “wait there is
more!”
A
56 page article for the Harvard Law Review
as he finally has to walk out the door
A
sense of pity for a man who seems to have aged 15 plus years but still eyeing
the White House with the Marvin Kaye Moody gaze
Knowing
that his legacy will be like the sand castle built at the low tide line and by
the incoming Trump tide soon to be razed
Leaving
little but anything other than a very smooth section of sand
And
the failed dreams of a 1000 state and federal Blue former office holders across
this land
At
least in Newport Beach we have a festival for Mr. Irrelevant for the last man
picked in the draft of the NFL
Gifts,
prizes and a parade while Obama will get nothing other than millions for an
advance for his memoirs he will try to sell
