What Obama Needs to Do to Be a Star Again: A Modest Proposal

Bush/Cheney arrested innocent people -- Americans included -- and illegally sent them to Gitmo.

Bush/Cheney came close to bankrupting the nation.

So what does Obama need to do to restore his presidency?

Drum roll.............

He should choose one Wall St. CEO, perhaps one from AIG or Bank of America.

He should choose one who has deliberately acted against the welfare of the American people.

And then he should have this CEO arrested by federal marshals for putting the security of the country in peril.

For treason, in other words.

He would only have to send one of them to jail --as an example.

Congress would pass angry resolutions.

Impeachment would fail. The voice of the vast majority of voters would not allow it.

In spite of the outrage and the condemnation, Obama would beat Sarah Palin in 2012 by a landslide.

Just a modest proposal.
