NOT SO HAPPY TIMES FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA

h a p p y  b i r t h d a y   m r.  p r e s i d e n t 
 
but, i feel sure you're not too happy about it
 
terror plots, global travel warnings, scandals, edward snowden
 
what's to be happy about right...
 
well, the late night comedians are trying to help you smile
 
they are now making you, finally, the butt of their jokes
 
in yet another obscure recent university study
 
one where college students actually got college credits
 
for staying up late and watching the late night talk shows
 
these college loan deadbeats actually counted the # of gags
 
by late-night comics that were about you, just recently
 
you were the target of 288 monologue jokes made by
 
people you call your friends... jay leno, david letterman
 
jimmy fallon, craig ferguson and jimmy kimmel
 
the jokes don't seem to illustrate a political change of heart
 
it's just that you've been so funny to watch lately
 
i know that you thought for years that you were untouchable
 
but now that the shine of being the first half black president
 
has worn off and now that you're snooping on everyone
 
- watching us with robot drones and auditing everyone
 
i guess the guys feel that they have nothing to lose
 
nothing to lose but time
 
you'll be gone soon and so they are probably
 
ramping-up the fun before you leave
 
but cheer up mr. president, though the jokes sometimes sting
 
 
at least you're not alex rodriguez - those jokes are brutal
