Cry Me A River
Poor little Obama; he’s not quite as happy being the – titular in his case – leader of the Free World as he seems to have thought he’d be.
“I just miss — I miss being anonymous,” he said at the meeting in the White House State Dining Room. “I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. I can’t take a walk.”
He says he enjoys golf but is not the fanatic that some have portrayed him to be because of the frequency of his golf outings.
“It’s the only excuse I have to get outside for four hours at a stretch,” he told the Hearst executives.
His impossible dream: “I just want to go through Central Park (in New York) and watch folks passing by…Spend the whole day watching people. I miss that.”
— President Barack Obama
Cry me a river, boy – then throw yourself into it, which would serve more purpose and a greater good than these pathetic attempts at garnering populist sympathy.
