Arlington, VA - Former President Barack Obama admitted that he was “super nervous” to present his Valentine’s card to his favorite Predator drone, Rosie, on Tuesday. This particular model of the General Atomics MQ-1 served in three tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, racking up multiple confirmed kills in both campaigns.
“I remember when you were first deployed,” said Obama while running his hands along the left wing of the unmanned aircraft. “When you fired your first Hellfire anti-tank missile, I knew I was in love,” continued the former President.
At publishing time, the former President was seen taking a selfie with the Predator drone. When I checked his Instagram, I found this poem, apparently written by Obama himself: “Roses are red, violets are blue, I won a Nobel Peace Prize with help from you” with a heart emoji next to a picture of Rosie.
