When you’re President of the United States (POTUS), it often seems as though you’ve “been in the barrel tumbling down Niagara Falls…”
After surviving all that, President Obama is feeling liberated, so much so that he belted out a heartfelt rendition of “Amazing Grace” for all the world to hear.
While paying tribute to the Charleston, South Carolina shooting victims, Obama also put out “a call to action” for ending “racial insensitivities.”
This plea included some firm words regarding the “pain that the Confederate flag stirred in too many of our citizens.”
During a Rose Garden “victory lap,” the president referred to recent Supreme Court decisions regarding “Obamacare” funding and gay marriage as “justice that arrives like a thunderbolt.”
All in all, it's been an amazing week for a president who hasn’t forgotten “Amazing Grace.”
