Let's look at some of the finer points of Ellis and compare them to Obama.
1. Charisma
Ellis has charisma, he's Mr. Takagi's right-hand man and he didn't get there by chance. Ellis knows how to light-up a room, and his smug smile says: there is nothing to worry about when he's on the job.
Obama has charisma, he's the leader of the free world and he didn't get there by chance. Obama knows how to light-up a room and his smug smile says: there is nothing to worry about when he's on the job.
2. Drive
Ellis has drive. When he wants something done, he goes for it! Whether it's scoring that 8-ball for the weekend, having a drink with terrorists or stopping a terrorist attack, you know that Ellis has the drive to get it done.
Obama has drive. When he wants something done, he goes for it! Whether it's pushing hasty legislation through the House, closing Gitmo, or stopping the War in Iraq, you know that Obama has the drive to get it done.
3. Tact
Ellis has tact. Ellis knows it's OK to give women fancy, expensive gifts in front of their husbands because hey, it's from Ellis. Ellis also knows that tact means snorting cocaine on the job while a cop and his boss are roaming free. In fact Tact is Ellis' middle name.
Obama has tact. Obama knows it's OK to give deaf and blind foreign dignitaries DVD's as gifts and gift shop toys to their kids, because hey, it's from Obama. Obama also know that tact means solving every problem with Beer while millions of kids look to the president as a role model. In fact, Hussein is Obama's middle name.
4. Respect for Law Enforcement
Ellis doesn't need respect for law enforcement. Letting the cops do their job just won't fly with Harry Ellis on the case. In fact, Ellis believes that John McClain acted stupidly and doesn't mind telling his wife so. Why doesn't Ellis need to have respect for law enforcement? Because he has a sweet 80's beard, that's why!
Obama doesn't need respect for law enforcement. Letting the cops do their job just won't fly with Barak Obama on the case. In fact, Obama believes that Sgt. Crowley acted stupidly and doesn't mind telling all of America so. Why doesn't Obama need to have respect for law enforcement? Because he's black... sort of. That's why!
5. Dealing with Terrorists.
There is nothing Ellis does better than negotiate with terrorists, after all, he negotiates million dollar deals for breakfast. In fact, he's our white knight. The best way to confront terrorism according the the Harry Ellis Book of Negotiations is to give them what they want. They ask for detonators, give it to them. The ask for John McClain, give him to them. If you just do your best to appease the terrorists they won't turn you head into a canoe.
There is nothing Obama does better than negotiate with terrorists, after all, he's a community organizer. In fact, he's our black white knight.
The best way to confront terrorism according the the Barak Obama Book of Negotiations is to give them what they want. They ask for meetings, give them meetings. They ask us to leave Iraq, leave Iraq. They ask us to close Gitmo, close Gitmo. If you just do your best to appease the terrorists, they won't try to destroy your country.
Yes, Harry Ellis and Barak Hussein Obama are similar in many ways, that's why I feel safer knowing that Obama is at the helm and using the Ellis Playbook.
