After eight long and infuriating years, president Barack Obama is finally set to leave the White House for good on Friday, January 20th, 2017. With his departure, he leaves behind a legacy of increased racial tensions, sky-high public deficits, and the spread of radical Islamic terror across the Western world. One thing he isn’t leaving behind, however, is his presidential paycheck.
Despite the fact that he will no longer be serving as the country’s chief executive, Obama’s disastrous run as president has earned him the right to a taxpayer-funded salary for life.
Unhappy with this fact, lawmakers in Washington D.C. sent a bill to Obama’s desk that would decrease the amount of money Obama would make as a former president.
Of course, Obama vetoed the bill immediately and released a message in order to explain himself.
See Obama’s lame excuse for the veto on the next page:
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
