Despite President Obama’s mildly presumptuous declarations that his ascension to power would signal “the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal,” we’re now two years in, and rather than healing, it appears as though the world is instead developing an incredibly nasty infection. But in all fairness to the president, he did also say this would be “the moment when we ended a war.” And I suppose that we are in the process of evacuating our forces from Iraq, so who says this guy isn’t keeping his promises? It’s all coming together exactly according to his plan ֠that is, of course, if we don’t consider the American economy, which is dangling by a thread, or the fact that we are entering World War III in the Middle East.
