13. One thing I've learned from President Obama
Fri Nov 29, 2013, 11:51 PM
Nov 2013

is to be patient.

When everyone's running around with their hair on fire, I just sit back and wait; because I know he will work it out to the best of his ability.

I also know that he is not in total control of Washington DC, so I can't expect all my wishes to come true.

I know that he might say some things to Republicans that are upsetting to Liberals, but I believe that is how he traps them.

I gotta admit, he can trap them good! Real good!

Since they're mad all the time, the least we can do is to give them something real to be mad about!

He makes me smile, but I wish his time in office were more easier for him; and his family, too.
"Please proceed ..."
