And, if we want to drag this analogy to the point of exhaustion, BO’s policies are the fahkin shark.
The frustrations of the presidency once had Barack Obama reach for a literary metaphor.
“At times he couldn’t help feeling, as he told one associate, a kinship with the protagonist in Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea,” writes David Corn in his new book on the presidency.
“He had, against tremendous odds, caught a big fish, but on the long voyage back to shore, his prized catch had been picked to pieces by sharks,” Corn writes.
He invoked Hemingway?????????? As if I didn’t loathe that bastard enough already………..
In the words of my beloved Miguel, “Tilt away, motherfucker. Tilt away.”
Actually, there’s a better metaphor for Baracka to employ, “there’s a sucker born every minute”.
“It’s morally wrong to allow a sucker to keep his money.”
— W.C. Fields
“He so crazy.” – Theodore Roosevelt
So, he’s saying his ship of state was a dinghy?
Got it.
