Obama, the Thin-Skinned President

 

[jillio]

Trying to deflect!

 

[kokonut]

Obama is among the most thin-skinned presidents we have had, and we see evidence of it in every possible venue imaginable, from one-on-one interviews to press conferences, from extemporaneous remarks to set speeches.

The president is constantly complaining about what others are saying about him. He is upset at Fox News, and conservative talk radio, and Republicans, and people carrying unflattering posters of him. He gets upset when his avalanche of faulty facts are challenged, like on health care. He gets upset when he is called on his hypocrisy, on everything from breaking his promise not to hire lobbyists in the White House to broadcasting health care meetings on C-SPAN to not curtailing earmarks to failing in his promises of transparency and bipartisanship.

In Obama's eyes, he is always the aggrieved, always the violated, always the victim of some injustice. He is America's virtuous and valorous hero, a man of unusually pure motives and uncommon wisdom, under assault by the forces of darkness.

It is all so darn unfair.

Ha ha...that's the funniest section from that article. I agree. Obama is thin skinned. And ya'll wonder why he never have these meetings with the press on a regular basis ?

Because meeting with the press takes him away from more important things.

Yeah! Like golf and campaigning. Besides why lie to the press when you can lie in a book and make money fron it.

What? Like golfing..? Mini-"vacations"..? Campaign fund raising..? How many press conferences has he held so far?

And I tell you why he doesn't do as much. He ends up putting his foot into his mouth.

Clinton/Clinton

Hypothetically, if they were to run for White House. Will Bill Clinton be allowed to become Vice-President considering he was a President before?

Either way, it'd be cool to see them run for Govt.

 

[rockin'robin]

I think a Clinton/Clinton team would be hard to beat....all that experience!
