15 Reasons Why Obama Just Had To Go
History

With Inauguration Day just past us, I just needed to vent. The Obama Administration had to go.

These might not be good reasons, but they are definitely reasons. Here's why Barack Obama just had to go.

1. Unemployment was getting too low for my taste.

11 million jobs is just too many jobs, amirite? And a 4.9% unemployment rate is just bragging.

2. His dog, Bo, is just too adorable.

How's a POTUS supposed to focus with that amount of tail-wagging?

3. Clean energy is a little too clean. It's almost suspicious.

Solar and wind power is a little easy, don't you think?

4. The sick were getting too much of what they needed through Obamacare.

What a "disaster". People living longer. Walking around all healthy.

5. Married LGBT couples' sharing benefits is too progressive.

What an awful guy, trying to grant everyone equal happiness. How sickening.

6. We really wanted that economic depression he averted.

Americans were finally going to get some much-needed rest and relaxation with all the job losses.

7. Our deficit wasn't cut enough.

You know, it was only reduced by $1 trillion.

8. There were too many high school graduates during his terms.

A graduation rate of 83 percent, the nation's all-time high. That might lead to more college graduates. Where does it end?

9. We missed POTUS scandals.

I mean, there was NO hot gossip. What else do I angrily post about on Facebook? Oh right...everything else.

10. His sense of humor was too impeccable.

Because a sense of humor comes from the DEVIL.

11. His family was too picture-perfect and well-behaved.

Where's the drama? Where are the flaws??? A STEPFORD family if you ask me.

12. The FLOTUS is way over-qualified and beautiful.

All those health initiatives and speaking her feelings. And those arms are really intimidating.

13. All those Barack and Joe memes were getting annoying.

That much friendship and loyalty makes me sick. I'm going to need that Obamacare.

14. He normalized relations with Cuba.

I was having fun getting Cuban cigars illegally.

15. Obama was the WORST.

I mean, just look at that face.


Yeah, so, maybe there aren't any good reasons. But that's because President Barack Obama was one of the most successful presidents in our great nation's history.

I, for one, will truly miss you and I will mourn the campaign that must follow in your influential footsteps. You're one to "trump" them all.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
