Tried to write goodbye letter to George W. but failed due to lack of experience using own words

Dear Diary,
Am finally allowed unrestricted access to Internet! (Have been staying away from Yahoo just in case.) Came across website of letters to George W. Read a few letters and was surprised by intensity of hate and anger. Much worse than anti-Palin sentiments in biased media. Felt much better about self.
Anyway, have been told that should talk more about feelings so as to avoid ending up angry like John for next presidential campaign. With this in mind, tried to write own letter to George but failed due to lack of experience writing down own words. Maybe will try to find Rick to see if someone will write letter for me.
Love yah!

Salzburg Ready for the Olympics, Just In Case...
There's skepticism about whether Russia will be able to follow through with it's Olympic dreams. According to this article, Salzburg governor Gabi Burgstaller says they are ready to host the Olympics if Russia were to fall behind with construction of the venues for the games. Burgstaller told the WirtschaftsBlatt business newspaper:
"Our great advantage is that we already have the venues in place. If the IOC needs us and it gives us a share of the revenue generated by the games, I'm there."
The paper claimed only a small part of the considerable infrastructure needed for the games in Sochi was already in place and that the Russian resort had not managed to find a construction company for the skating rink. Jean-Claude Killy, the president of the co-ordination commission for the 2014 Games, said he had been firm with the Sochi organisers in August, urging them to not lose time in getting things ready.
The former triple Olympic skiing champion said the organisers would need to work day and night to ensure everything was ready in five and a half years time.
A Farewell Letter to President Bush

Dear Diary,
Have not written for several weeks due to time-consuming process of choosing cabinet, finding future First Dog, and explaining to reporters that am not yet in charge of country and therefore cannot yet fix economy. However, was browsing internet today—future First Lady insists that am rotting brain with hours of reading blogs—and came across forum for saying goodbye to George. Have decided to write own letter.
Dear President,
I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation for the unmitigated destruction that your administration has unleashed upon the American economy, environment, and population. Your unsound policies and offensive and discriminatory beliefs worked to convince the American public that the Republican Party is ineffective at best and extremely destructive at worst.
Your catastrophic two terms as president made my election significantly easier and for that I am eternally grateful.
Warm regards,
Barack
PS. However, come January 20th, I will no longer be thankful for your misguided policies and will instead be furious that I will have to spend the next four years attempting to clean up after you and your mistakes.
Am rather proud of letter. Succinct, to the point, and does not include inappropriate words or phrases! (Was very difficult to avoid profanity.)
Yours,
President-Elect Barack
