I know not everybody agrees about Obama's politics but I shall miss this urbane and funny man ::

[ummmm]

He's pretty damn cool....

[chiaroscuro]

I agree his speech writers are pretty good.

[Peter Pedant]

O god - OK as a video comedian
as a president ( which was his job after all ... ) time will tell

it is not his politics at issue but what he did or did not do .... mainly not do

[ivor4781]

did anyone watch the series on obama ?.a great guy but really couldn't do much as the opposition blocked nearly every thing he wanted to change

[Peter Pedant]

prof of constitutional law who swore to close down guantanamo
and then didnt ....
just about says it all....

[douglas9401]

He seems to have breezed through with a smile, a joke and not bored the great American public with long-winded speechifying.
Pure showbiz.

Went off him when he interfered in the EU !

[stuey]

I liked his quip about the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Bieber.

[dieseldick]

thats about all he was good for, name one good thing he done for the american people .

i will be very happy to see trump in and the back of obama.

[Mamyalynne]

He sure has a dry wit.

[mikey4444]

Dieseldick.....Well, he saved the world from Vice President Palin !

How do you rate his Jonas brothers joke, mikey?

[mikey4444]

If some could repost it, I would be very much obliged !

It's just a 'Dad' joke really.

[mikey4444]

Sorry Mamy...I don' listen to much pop music these days.

( smashing live relay of "Elektra" last night from the Met....more my kind of thing ! )

I like his Goldman Sacks joke though, and the one about going to the bathroom in the middle of the night !
