If You Remove "IR" From Giraffe...

Why, I believe that would be "gaffe". Do I win a prize? No, but fret not, for the annointed one comes away prize-less also. People are beginning to talk about the stuttering, stammering candidate who manages, successfully, to say very little while saying a lot...of gibberish that is. From the orchestrated not for the press events coming from the Middle East, it is difficult to tell exactly what is going on. After having slapped the military faces, living and dead, by claiming credit for any Iraq success, Mister Obama will be on his way to adoring crowds of America haters in Europe. Perhaps a second printing of his book, "The Audacity of Hope', is in order. I have a reccomendation: Change the title to simply,"Audacity". Now, there is a choice for truth in advertising.

Regarding the removal of "ir" from giraffe, one is left simply with the phonetic equivalent: I-are. And yes, HE is. Egotist, narcissist, and whatever else comes with, or rhymes with, arrogance. My apologies Glen Campbell, but by the time Obama gets to Phoenix, he'll find no one waitin'. Was it Will Rogers who said that the best way to expose a fool, is to let him speak on, and on, and on...if not, then I wish he had said it. Critical conversation in America has now shifted to just how dangerous a threat Obama is to the American way of life, and for very good reason. If we can't afford his prospective programs, then we can't afford him!

Things are looking so bad, I will not allow the grandson to listen to any more of Obama's words. They lack precious insight, are not born of wisdom, and most importantly appear to be no more than off the cuff ramblings. Let's see what happens in Germany. Yesterday, I spoke of the Berlin location for Obama's speech. If you can't have the most historic site(Brandenberg Gate), why, then let's get the next most important site, right? The Victory Column! Oh, this column has great historical significance indeed! Formerly, this beautiful column sat in front of the Reichstag, Germany's parliament building. However, in 1939 it was moved to it's current location by none other than a man known simply as, Adolph Hitler. This colum was dedicated to Germany's victories over the Danes, the Austrians, and the French in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Hitler most loved this column, and thought it appropriate in it's present setting. This was to be the site of the new capital of Germany, or Germania.

I suppose they do not teach world history at Harvard either. Super Unspoken Gaffe!

I know, it is late, and we all can't wait to hear this dazzling speech forthcoming. So, enough with the politics, and on with the grandson's swimming lessons. Gotta teach him to keep his head above water, you know... yes, pun intended...
