I'd Like To Meet With President Obama

Got this updated oldie from Michael…

One sunny day in 2008, an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he’d been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the Marine standing guard and said, “I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.”

The Marine replied, “Sir, Senator Obama is not the President and doesn’t reside here.”

The old man said, “Okay,” and walked away.

The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, “I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.”

The Marine again told the man, “Sir, as I said yesterday, Senator Obama is not the President and doesn’t reside here.”

The man thanked him and again walked away.

The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same Marine, saying “I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.”

The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, “Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to President Obama. I’ve told you several times that Senator Obama is not the President and doesn’t reside here. Don’t you understand?”

The old man replied, “Oh, I understand you fine! I just love hearing you say it!”

Funny! But don't laugh too hard. The democrats are pushing hard and a lot of people think a lawyer who speaks fairly well is all the criteria needed for President. Sad.

Obama is looking better and better to me not because I think a lawyer would be a good president but because McCain seems too old. :P

Too old? He is younger than Reagan was and he was a good president no matter which side of the aisle you were on.
