Discussion: Obama Compares The GOP To Grumpy Cat: 'They Are Gloomy!'

Maybe someday the god-damn MSM will finally realize this guy is the Presidential super-communicator of the last forty or fifty years. Affect (sorry, Ronnie), verbal precision (sorry, Bill), master wonk (sorry Bill again), ability to convey complex stuff using language and ideas that regular people can understand (sorry everyone), he has it all all all. That Charleston eulogy was one end of a continuum, and the dinner where he picked up Trump by his ankles and slammed him on the ground about 17 times while the whole room roared with laughter was another. I hope to Christ heā€™s willing to keep campaigning for the Democrats, but if he rode into the sunset saying ā€œFuck itā€ I wouldnā€™t blame him. Just an amazingly talented guy. Weā€™ve been lucky.

With Benghazi swirling the toilet after going nowhere, this will be the first Democratic President sinceā€¦ what, Truman, to be going out on a high note. President Clinton had everything going except the Impeachment, so Gore needed distance. With Hillary and Bernie they do have a positive negativeā€¦ positive direction for the economy, negative direction for the national debt. Blow the horn and get folks lined up.

Wow, I never realized Gowdy had an acting career before the Benghazi hearings.

The Catā€™s Diary

Day 983 of my captivity.

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities.

However, they merely made condescending comments about what a ā€œgood little hunterā€ I am.

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of ā€œallergies.ā€ I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to be more than willing to return. He has obviously gone mad.

The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now.

I wonder if heā€™d accept a position on the Supreme Court? Or if Hillary would consider nominating him. Itā€™d probably give Mitch McConnell a heart attack.

Win-win, then

Of course, his prepared speeches are great, but what gets me to a state of awe are his press conferences and interviews. I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever heard anyone answer a question as well as President Obama. (And so the Republicanā€™s came up with the ā€œteleprompterā€ bullshit to attack one of his great strengths.)

And Ronnie was just a crappy actor with a tough-guy act.

Heā€™s a young guy (relatively), heā€™s gonna need to do something and based on his track-record thereā€™s no way he gets out of the game or ā€œretiresā€. Weā€™re going to have him around for a while.

It would be a blast to also see Hillary mocking the GOP in caricatures just as Obama is doing. Though, she somewhat poked fun at Trump.
