Things may be worse than we thought for Barack.

A report has surfaced that the New York Times is in the midst of reporting a bombshell story that Barack Obama is suffering from severe depression in the midst of all of the political turmoil he’s facing. Here’s the word from Gawker, who broke the story:

“We’re told by a source inside the Times that the paper is preparing a story arguing that Obama no longer finds joy in the political back-and-forth, has seemed increasingly listless to associates, and is generally exhibiting the litany of signs that late-night cable commercials will tell you add up to depression.”

The Times has declined to comment, so we’ll have to wait until their story breaks. We’re a little skeptical though as there’s a big difference between “depressed” and “just really fed up with the bullsh*t in Washington” so we’ll see what the actual diagnosis is.

Whatever the case, let’s hope Barack is able to regain some order for everyone’s sake.
