They'll DIS HIM Every Time!

President Obama has staffed his economic team with Wall Street veterans, signed a health-care bill that hews to the architecture of the private health-insurance system, agreed to keep the prison at Guantanamo Bay open, and revived military tribunals—and yet he's still accused by Tea Party zealots of being an America-hating, terrorist-coddling Islamo-Socialist. Is there anything the president can do to get his detractors to like himj, even just a teensy-eensyweensy bit?

FUTURE OBAMA CONCESSION

President Obama agrees to repeal Obamacare, promises to never again look to Sweden for solutions.

President Obama agrees to help balance budget by dismantling the Department of Education, the E.P.A., and the N.E.A.

LIKELY TEA PARTY RESPONSE

“Rebirthers” demand proof that President Biden was delivered vaginally (and not by Cesarean) so that  he qualifies as a “natural-born citizen,” as required by Article II, Section 1, of the U.S. Constitution.
