I feel a traffic jam coming on.

Christie has to be seething, this is like the 3rd time that President Obama has upstaged him and then he’s going to jail. Springsteen detests him and Trump is belittling and demeaning him.
What’s a crooked Governor to do?

Bravo, Mr. President. Encore! Encore!

I can hardly wait till he campaigns for the Democratic nominee (cough, cough Hillary). He’s so good at bringing it home and telling it like it is.

Keeping it 100.

If the Media simply does its job and reports facts our country will have no political division on facts, The partisan attacks are for power and money. Benjamin Franklin said “they have their Democracy if they can keep it”. sadly Trump is an ignorant PR guy who can sell The Walking Dead the zombies who believe him the Con.

The donald should take notes. look donald this is what a real president sounds like.
Can you imagine a donald commencement speech?
All you young girls are hot some of you have huuuge tits. To all you latinas and blacks or what ever you call yourselves. I’m building a wall you kids can help by joining my company that will be building the wall. I will make sure that each and every one of you get payed a fair wage of $8 hr that is a hole 25 cents more then what any other administration would pay you.
And when i’m done with the wall You can join my armed forces and travel around the world. You can see the place where we found Sadam Hussien and even stay a few years in syria or even Afghanistan… Only I will make that possible.
So vote for me "im really really smart.

Shorter Obama:
“All y’all have seen the sh*t that’s gone down the last 8 years, right? Don’t repeat it!” mic drop

“In politics and in life, ignorance is not a virtue,” Obama told graduates at the New Jersey university. “It’s not cool to not know what you’re talking about. That’s not keeping it real, or telling it like it is. That’s not challenging political correctness. That’s just not knowing what you’re talking about.”

He added: “When our leaders express a disdain for facts, when they’re not held accountable for repeating falsehoods, and just making stuff up while actual experts are dismissed as elitist, then we’ve got a problem. The rejection of facts, the rejection of reason and science, that is the path to decline.”

Try very hard, Clunker, to imagine life without him! I truly can’t.

No way … He’s gonna be around for a great many years yet ----

And I’m sure that he will have great EFFECT in many things —

But… yea … too bad not as Pres. —

(and thanx for that 50th binkie by the way… your support has always meant a lot ! ! )

In my 61 years, there has not been a President that I have enjoyed listening to more than President Obama. When he spoke at the 2004 convention, I knew right away that I was hearing a future President and said to anyone who would listen that “I want a President who sounds like that!” (especially after GWB). Well, we got him and I’m glad to have witnessed it. He got quite a lot done considering the ridiculous GOP obstruction, right wing noise machine and the epidemic of ODS he had to deal with. He has a very pleasant voice to listen to coupled with intelligent, well thought out words, also good comedic delivery. Heck, he can even sing! Yeah, I’m going to miss this President.
Edit: And our magnificent First Lady, Michelle, too.
