I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully


Thankfully, it's nearly over.

And yet, the man has managed to surprise me.
According to this astonishing piece, POTUS is establishing the World's largest Marine Protected Area in the Pacific. As usual, I really know very little about the details but it looks like for once, he's managed to withstand both the Vice President and the Fishing Lobby, that in itself a more than remarkable feat.
Time to give Honor to Whom Honor is due - reluctantly!

Speaking of which, I feel that we must also thank him for his legacy of Bushisms.
All were stupid, most were funny, some were even prophetic.
Like this one, from Oct 4, 2001: "There's no doubt in my mind, not one doubt in my mind, that we will fail".

Indeed!
