The early morning phone call that robbed the President of most of his night’s sleep was now front page news. The third part of his three way phone conversation last night with Robert Gibbs his White House Press Secretary and Robert Gates his Secretary of Defense addressed a soon to be released article in Rolling Stone Magazine that was emailed to Gibbs by the editor. Everyone was talking about it and his commanding General in Afghanistan was summoned to meet with his boss in the Oval Office on Wednesday. Most speculated that the superb American warrior would be fired and relieved of his assignment. For General McChrystal’s only crime was telling it like it is, which didn’t go down well with this embattled President. This whole thing broadsided the President as he continued to unsuccessfully juggle the nation’s state of affairs. Any outsider could see that there was chaos everywhere in the managing of the country. War had broken out in almost every department, caused by the influx of radicals introduced by the President and his crew. Now it looked like the military had had it with his administration. He knew of the tension with the upper brass but this article illustrated the downright contempt the average soldier had for him, his administration and the whole world would know about it on Friday. Knowing that he would be meeting with the G-8 on Friday, he would be looked upon as a fool by the leaders of the world. He wondered why the General would be so candid with a liberal rag like Rolling Stone if it wasn’t intentional. What’s his game the President kept milling over and over in his mind? These military types play chess better then we civilians, there’s got to be some plan afoot and that little question was driving him nuts.
Attorney General Holder called the President shortly after 10:00 A.M. to inform him that his deep water drilling ban was overturned by a Louisiana Federal Judge. “What do you suggest we do now sir” holder exclaimed? “Executive order” the President mumbled. “Yeah but what about the executive order for amnesty, wouldn’t that be pushing things a bit? We’d be ruling by executive order without the consent of the people. If you think your polls are bad now, just wait” Holder asserted. “Fuck them” as the President turned on his new flat screen TV that he picked out for the Oval Office. Unfortunately, for the President the janitors had been watching The Fox News Channel the night before, so when the TV flashed on, out popped Bill O’Reilly’s finger pointing straight at the President saying “caution: you’re about to enter the no spin zone.” With that the President wound up in his typical girlish style of throwing and tossed the remote control into the screen breaking it into a thousand pieces as day 508 of the Obama Presidency proceeded in pieces all over the floor.
