Obama Bumps Charlie Brown

Oh good grief President Obama!

charlie_brown_lucy_footballIf you haven’t heard President Obama will be holding another prime time speech tonight to announce the troop surge in Afghanistan. And while I’m sure we will all be dazzled with teleprompter reading skills, we already know the details of the troop surge. We already know that many Democrats will be ticked off and Republicans too. However, there is another segment of the population Obama might be making mad. The family.

ABC had already scheduled the TV tradition of  ” A Charlie Brown Christmas” for 8pm Eastern tonight. When is Obama talking? Yup, 8pm Eastern. I know there are many families out there (even my Mom) who look forward to this night because it kicks off the Christmas Season. Instead, you will be tuning in a seeing Obama read from a screen.

If you’re Obama, you just hope have to hope that there isn’t a “Lucy” waiting to take away your prompter at the last second.
