And The "Coolest Guy On The Planet" Award Goes To....


Coolest Guy On The Paet
Since this is awards season, I think we need to announce that the Coolest Guy On The Planet award, for the 9th straight year, goes to Barack Obama.
Not only did he spend 8 long years putting up with up with a congress and senate filled with people whose solemn vow was to make his life miserable, he said nothing for the last three months while the World's Biggest Asshole (WBA) accused him of all kinds of things that the whole world heard about.
What he did by not getting involved in all this bullshit was to let the World's Biggest Asshole sink himself in the mire of his own lies. Now that's pretty fuckin' cool, you have to admit.
A lesser man would have been sucked into this vortex of crap and whatever legacy he may have had would have been ruined. Because that's what people like the WBA do. They ruin people with lies, innuendo and deceit.
Of course you have to have a good number of people on the receiving end to buy into all of this bullshit. But that number, as anyone can plainly can see from the WBA's approval ratings, is going down down down.
When it bottoms out, probably around 20%, as his epic fails continue (and they will) you will very easily be able to identify the most gullible people in America, That might just be a good census stat to have.
In the meantime, I think all Americans should be grateful that they had a president like Barack Obama, because he genuinely is the Coolest Guy On The Planet, and whether they choose to believe it or not, he saved their country from a complete collapse caused by Wall Street greed
and pork barrel politics.
And he would have been able to do a lot more if the Republican politicians in his government cared more about the people than they did about trying to making life miserable for their president.

Brian, your Obama-bashing is even more tedious than the trump-bashing that Jim, I and many others do daily these days. Particularly, when you rant on and on about Obamacare. For as I understand it, Kyrgyzstan where you indicate you reside, apparently "... inherited the Soviet system of free universal health care, which in Kyrgyzstan's case generally provided sufficient numbers of doctors, nurses, and doctor's assistants, as well as medical clinics and hospitals. However, since 1991 citizens often have received inadequate care because medical personnel are not well trained; pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, and equipment are insufficient; and facilities are generally inadequate and unsanitary." (Glenn E. Curtis, ed. Kyrgyzstan: A Country Study. Washington: GPO for the Library of Congress, 1996.) http://countrystudies.us/kyrgyzstan/ Or is that communist propaganda, and all healthcare worries solved without government intervention where you choose to live?

If you ever wanted to come back to the US, I'm sure they could find you a rather high up position at Brietbart News.

Brian McKenzie And you think that Trump can unfuck that. Trump is a puppet controlled by an anarchist and a bunch of greedy billionaires. He'll make Obama's foreign policy decisions look completely sane.

You know you should really speak your mind Brian McKenzie instead of holding it all inside like you do. It's not good to repress your feelings.

, pudding or humble pie, it takes a big man to admit his error publicly. I for one commend you, my friend, for your forthright honesty. We're those qualities only reflected these days in the Oval Office ... now renamed the Universe's Center of Bull Chip Manufacturing. Cheers!

Well, Jim, I really didn't expect to say this so soon -- even though I was a strong supporter and big donor to the Obama 2008 presidential campaign (but then soured on the second term) -- but I kind of miss POTUS 44 already. Can anyone blame me? How many other bees miss Barack? I would also agree with Ernest Hemingway that displaying "grace under pressure" is considered to be among a person's greatest feats in life. We've sure seen a lot of pressure since the new POTUS took office, but grace? Not so much. Yes, the "benefit of the doubt" has expired for me. Perhaps you were correct all along, Jim. The so-called proof "is in the pudding," as they say -- and the pudding ain't tasting good.

Well, Jim, I really didin't expect to say this so soon -- even though I was a strong supporter and maximum individual donor to the Obama 2008 presidential campaign (but then soured on the second term) -- but I kind of miss POTUS 44 only two short months after the inauguration of POTUS 45. Can anyone blame me? How many other bees miss Barack? I would also agree with Ernest Hemingway that displaying grace under pressure is considered to be among a person's greatest feats in life. We've sure seen a lot of pressure since the new president was inaugurated, but not much grace at all. Yes, the "benefit of the doubt" has expired for me. Perhaps you were correct all along, Jim. The so-called proof "is in the pudding," as they say.

Well, Jim, I never thought I'd say it -- even though I was a supporter and donor to his 2008 presidential campaign -- but I kind of miss him now (even though I soured on the second term). Can anyone blame me? Do YOU miss Barry (Barack) too?

Truth. His cool in the face of the economic disaster he inherited on taking office and his calm direction to get us out of it is what the history books will talk about. The short view of the WBA and his ilk is fast being reflected in their incompetence. I hope we can survive that.
