Obama decrees loser of presidential election must leave country
OBAMA SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER REQUIRING LOSER OF PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION TO LEAVE COUNTRY
WASHINGTON (News Satire from The Borowitz Report)—In an Oval Office ceremony on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama signed an executive order requiring the loser of the 2016 Presidential election to leave the country forever.
“This will help the healing begin,” the President said.
The executive order calls for the loser of the November 8th election to depart the country on the morning of November 9th and never return.
“Whoever that turns out to be,” the President said.
Obama acknowledged that the executive order marked a departure from American electoral tradition, but added, “A lot of good will come of this.”
The two most recent losers of U.S. Presidential elections, John McCain and Mitt Romney, issued a joint statement in reaction to the executive order. “We’re O.K. with it,” the statement read.

Bill and Hillary should choose a country with which we do NOT have an extradition treaty.

I hope that we don't spend the next 4 years attempting to criminalize our political opponents. It's time to get the nation moving again. Wasting four years on hearings, or indulging in wild accusations is something more fit for a Central American dictatorship than it should be for this great nation.
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Spot on, Goose.
We are of the vintage to remember Ford's pardon of Nixon....I didn't like it at the time, but slowly the realization sunk in that there was no other way to put Watergate behind and move forward as a nation.
