I'm Sorry to Announce.... [View All]

[FrenchieCat]

He never said that he was perfect, in fact he always said that he wasn't.
His supporters also never said that he was perfect,
although they were accused of it.

He never said he was the Messiah.
His supporters also never said he was the Messiah,
those were his distractors and his enemies who called him that.

He never was an empty suit,
although he was accused of it.

He never said that he was left, right, center...
He said he was a pragmatic progressive who would use common sense.

He never said that he was going to be everything to everybody,
and he said that he wouldn't always tell us what we wanted to hear.

He never said that he wasn't going to make mistakes,
in fact, he said he was sure he'd make a few,
and he always said that he would listen to all sides in order to find common ground,
without compromising his own beliefs.

He always said that he supported teacher merit pay (just not in the traditional sense),
that he would wind down the Iraq war (after speaking to the generals on the ground),
that he would take the fight to Afghanistan (but review the objectives and make a review),

He said that he would fix our economy (but that it would take time),
and provide us with universal health care (but he didn't run on single payer),
and make the government more transparent, and reverse the tax cuts to the rich.


It is a fact that he ran on Change,
But I'm sorry to announce,
that he will need more than 60 motherfucking days.
