Things I'm blaming on Obama today

First off, it's too fuggin hot. Obama has a whole National Weather Service, but does he do anything about the weather? They all need to stop the pointless yammering about climate change and do something about the heat

And don't even get me started on what a mess my kitchen is. Why doesn't somebody clean this up? It's disgraceful! I really have to blame it on the complete lack of leadership on this country

Also the attack in Nice! How come Obama let that guy rent a 19 ton truck without a CDL? If we can't do any better than this, France will want to leave the United States, just like England did -- and who could blame them?

I was blaming myself but the truth is I plant some for the caterpillars. Only they got marigold happy and spread to all my beds. I picked them off like you're supposed to do, but if blaming Obama makes it all better, then let the blaming begin!

Only, I really don't have the energy to work up all that outrage.

I am a blame-shifting failure.

that it was the renegade elves who escaped from Santa's Village and mess things up at home while we're at work who were responsible for the messy kitchen thing... this being Obama's fault actually explains it! I knew those elves weren't really escaping from Santa's Village!

I drank a little too much last night and I noticed that Obama did not once say "Jack, maybe you have had enough". God damn Obama
