Obama - Gates - Is There a Problem? 8:33 P.M. Sunday August 15th 2010

The President scratched the four mosquito bites he acquired at 3:23 A.M. while in Florida this morning and was glad his balls were finally starting to clear up. He now was fairly annoyed at everything as he finished reading a notice of resignation letter from his Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates the lone holdover from the Bush years. It appeared Gates was not happy with his orders to slash defense spending. His notice to stay on board till the end of 2011 left him enough time to create gridlock for the President’s defense cuts. This would give General Petraeus the time he needed to secure Afghanistan. It also meant that after the November elections Washington would have had a complete cleansing of the leftists in congress. He knew that with a House and hopefully a Senate- controlled Republican-Tea Party collision, there would be many investigations into the first two years of the Obama Administration which would leave the President fighting daily for his political life.
Gates knew if the current attitude of the American people continued and was reflective of the newly elected congressmen, there will be many indictments and special prosecutors assigned to clean up the mess this President had created. The resumes alone of most appointed czars would be grounds for prosecution, so many of them were already looking for exit signs knowing that a November massacre was nearing. They had hoped their stay could have been longer but since the American people were about to throw anybody out that was connected to this President it left less time to do the damage that was needed.
So, as the President crumpled up Gates’s letter he pulled his left arm back for a shot at a trashcan in the corner of the Oval Office and he released Gates’s letter with perfect form. A split second later it slammed into the side of the can with a dejected thud. Shit, he thought to himself, how could I have missed that?
Out on the highways and byways of America the people had almost two days now to digest the President's comments of approval of a Ground Zero Mosque, and they were pissed. David was right, he thought. I really fucked up this time, while he shuffled dejectedly across the room to pick up his missed shot. Needing instant gratification the leader of the free world tightly grabbed the wad of paper and leaped almost four feet into the air next to the can as he slammed the paper ball into the can while hitting the floor wrong with both feet and toppling over like the Towers of the World Trade Center as the 562nd day of the Obama Presidency crawled towards his desk screaming for help.
