Lay off the POTus

John Kerry officially announced today that he would not run for President. I wonder what it must feel like to have millions of people actively and fully cheering your decision not to seek specific employment. I can't really fathom knowing that entire cities sleep easier knowing that I don't want to become a surgeon, or pilot. It's one thing to be hated by those who oppose you. But to have millions of people who voted for you thrill to the news that they won't have that chance again, that's gotta be weird. It's like the political version of an intervention.

"John, we care about you, but seriously you gotta lay off the POTus. We're worried about you. We know that we've been enabling you, but you need to hear us and believe that's going to stop. We're not going to let you rip us apart. You sit there all day staring black light campaign literature and making incoherent defenses of your position on the war. John, you need help. We don't want this to become a gateway office, soon you'll be trying for PCP (Professional Catholic, Pope). Maybe you can take some time, talk to Michael Dukakis, or Steve Forbes."
