So I think Chris Rock deserves some recognition for calling the shot and being right. Jump below the squiggle so long as spicy language does not offend.
Rock on Obama:
"There’s a fucking art to the first term because you’re always running for a second term the whole time. It’s like Clinton’s first term. You can’t really do your gangsta shit until your second term. … Even Bush couldn’t really fuck up the world until his second term. That’s when he put the hammer down. I’m like everybody, I want more action. But I understand that he’s trying not to piss off a lot of people. But I believe wholeheartedly if he’s back in, he’s going to do some gangsta shit," – Chris Rock
That is from November 11, 2011. I took note of it in this post on on the same day. I looked back on the post today given yesterday's events and the comments are interesting given the way things have gone. I think Chris deserves some recognition for his political acumen (so does the president for that matter...).
The world just witnessed Obama going stone cold gangsta in Chris' parlance. I believe Chris was, and is right, and that the Teabaggers/Republicans have no idea who, or what, they are dealing with.
No drama Obama; said what he was going to do and did it without giving an inch; 'gangsta' all the way. Adding to the tally of political implosions he has left in his wake during his career.
Great call Chris! Maybe he should get his own talking head political show? There is little doubt it would be entertaining to watch.
