It's Ass Kicking Season, And Barack Obama's Got His Boot Ready

Because the media demands it, your president sat down with Matt Lauer last night to display some rage. This poor guy, though… he just can’t pull it off. “I want the American people to rest assured that once we determine which ass is deserving of kicking, that will indeed be the posterior which receives a forceful foot. Let me be clear: ass will be definitively kicked. “ Etc. I mean, fine, if you’re going to buy into the line that there needs to be a show of fury, by all means go for it, but this comes off as so academic and forced. I would rather see him rip all the books out of the shelves behind him and yell, “RARRRRRR! OBAMA SO MAD ABOUT OIL SPILL! OBAMA SMASH!” and then knock of a couple of Lauer’s teeth out for emphasis. But I guess this is the best they can do.
