“Happy Birthday, Mr. President”


President Obama turned 50 on Thursday.  He wanted to have one big party for friends relatives, colleagues, and diplomats, but his plans were thwarted by the 2-party system.

Obama had said in an interview that all he wanted for his birthday was the debt-ceiling deal.  But with the deal he got, he’s now hoping to re-gift it.

The president was aware of the bittersweet nature of the milestone.  He’s now more than halfway past both his life expectancy and the end of his only expected term.
