Progress Notes for Patient 540463, OBAMA, Barack, H.

7/23/14:  Valerie Jarrett called again to say Patient is still inconsolable. She suggested that I revert to our old arrangement where I would be provided with a  room so I would be on call for Patient in emergencies.  I visited Patient's family apartment and again found him in extreme  distress -- lying face down --not on the hideous brown sofa this time but on the floor, pounding  the indescribably ugly  pizza-patterned carpet. Between his bouts of cursing and wailing  I was able to determine that a new Fox News poll finds a 58 percent majority, including a third of Democrats, say the White House has not been competent at managing the federal government. "Woe," said Patient " Woe is me." I injected a modest dose of Ativan to calm him down. Then I phoned my office, leaving a  message that I might be late in  the morning. Dictated by M.H. Rink, M.D
