Obama Inserts Himself in White House Bios of Past Presidents
Why
would any President, even one as self-impressed as Obama, allow his
persona to be inserted into the biographies of our past Presidents? That
thought bothered me all day yesterday.
After sleeping on it last night, it is obvious to me that there are only two viable possibilities.
First, someone at the White House or in the Obama re-election campaign watched
Forrest Gump
one too many times over the weekend and just felt a calling. Or, this
is the beginning of a stealth campaign to keep up with the real or
imagined exploits of Vladimir Putin.
If you think the
Forrest Gump
scenario more viable, consider where that could lead. We could see a
short video clip of Obama raising the flag at Iwo Jima or sprinting to a
Gold Medal at the Olympics a la Jessie Owens or being sworn in as
President of the United States. Or even more scary, playing in the Lt.
Dan Band.
On the other hand, if you buy the Putin
fantasy, just imagine how much fun that video could be. Remember that
beach body they created for Obama during the campaign? Perfect pecs.
Just imagine him rescuing relics from the sea and flying helicopters.
Lions, and tigers and bears, oh my! This scenario seems more likely.
If the
Forrest Gump idea prevails, please omit the scene where Forrest (Obama) reveals his buttocks wound to some unfortunate future President.
