SARCASTIC IS NOW PRESIDENTIAL

I have heard Gold Star Mom recitations of audiences with the President-Select where the mother described her son and lamented that his life had been too short. To which the prez said yeah, but had he lived, his life might not have been very happy, anyway.

The inappropriateness of this presidential incipidity can't be explained by spin. It is a dark joke that this technical military deserter leads us. His evangelic crusade has cost the world and America thousands of lives. He only shows respect to the partisan subset of his personal supporters. He was not present for duty for months at his post in the Texas Nationsl Guard, then rose to commander of heros in an optional war he started on purpose.

That is not honorable. It is a sarcasm directed toward the rest of us, even the best of us, who died under orders. They didn't live to possibly become President, or even become a normal person.
