H.L. Mencken Identifies White House Occupant : Crica 1920

What goes around, comes around. Is this really a statement from Mencken, who is Mencken by the way, or does it matter if the statement is appropriate to the situation.

In the case of Mr Obama, the insight into the mind and actions of our fearless leader that currently occupies the white house is appropriate.

A 93-Year-Old Prophecy Comes To Pass
A Brilliant Prophecy From 93 Years Ago
H.L. Mencken, The Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920 
 H.L. Mencken (born 1880 - died 1956) was a journalist, satirist, critic, and Democrat. He wrote this editorial while working for the Baltimore Evening Sun, which appeared in the July 26, 1920 edition.
 

"As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and complete narcissistic moron."
