Picture emerging of Obama as arrogant, bored, and 'peevish' about campaign

As people read this book - and it is compulsively readable - they should ask themselves the same question: why does Barack Obama always get a pass from the media -- always?

He is the pet du jour of the propagandists, possibly their greatest accomplishment. Present the tabula rasa. Write the narrative.

He exhibits all the traits of someone who’s doing drugs. Think about it.

Except Chancy Gardner was likeable. Can’t say the same for Prez Zero.

Should we start calling him Nero? Fiddling while the nation burns? Nero the O.

What a pantywaist wimp. If this skinnyass punk found the campaign too tough for him, what did he think the presidency would be like?

He watched Clinton seem to sail through, but billyboy didn't really give a sh*t about anything as long as he had his drugs and got his nookie. Bush labored at it but he faced real problems, not teapot tempests like Obama has, and he was hounded relentlessly by domestic enemies including Obama himself. Reagan made it look easy, but Reagan was a man.

Obama is a chickensh*t who just can't cut the mustard.

Sometimes the subtle approach is best. This is not one of those times

Genius.

...I suspect were all going to see the nastier side of Narcissism sooner than later. Watch for all of those secret unknowns in the White House start to leave. Parts of the MSM will turn against him when people start to revolt, and yes, there is going to be a revolution. I expect another terror attack and Odumbo’s cavalier approach is going to push the average American beyond remaining calm

Just a reminder.

0bomba has informed all our opponents that the "existing federal air marshal force of more than 3,200 personnel would be deployed almost exclusively to overseas flights flown by U.S. carriers." starting on Feb 1.

Yes. the traitor announced that domestic flights would finally be free of those pesky air marshals.

Carol Platt Liebau was first female managing editor of the Harvard Law Review;

It reminds me a little bit of my experience with him when he was president of the Harvard Law Review. You know, I hesitated to say a lot about this during the campaign because I really thought maybe it wasn't fair. That maybe, finally, when he got to be President, this would be a job big enough to engage and hold Barack Obama's sustained interest, because really, is there a bigger job out here?

[...]

[W]hen he was at the HLR you did get a very distinct sense that he was the kind of guy who much more interested in being the president of the Review, than he was in doing anything as president of the Review.

A lot of the time he quote/unquote "worked from home", which was sort of a shorthand - and people would say it sort of wryly - shorthand for not really doing much. He just wasn't around. Most of the day to day work was carried out by the managing editor of the Review, my predecessor, a great guy called Tom Pirelli whose actually going to be one of the assistant attorney generals now.

He's the one who did most of the day to day work. Barack Obama was nowhere to be seen. Occasionally he would drop in he would talk to people, and then he'd leave again as though his very arrival had been a benediction in and of itself, but not very much got done.

So, you know, you see that and you think, gosh, maybe that's the way the guy operates, hut then you figure ok, obviously he always had his eye on bigger and better things.

But now he's President...there really isn't a bigger or better thing.

[Obama] reminds me of a spoiled little brat who wants everything handed to them and work for nothing. All he wants to do is play at President.

That's because he has had everything handed to him. Obama is the reductio ad absurdum of affirmative action.

I remember her talking about this when she filled in for Hugh Hewitt. I wish she had said more. There are a lot of interesting comments at that link but it’s kind of funny—they don’t sound much different than the kind people are still making today even though that was 10 months ago.

You damn right the bozo POS is not a leader of anything.

Other than puck around with golf, eat $100.00 pound Kobe steak, sneak smokes,shoot hoops, do a line or two of nose candy and choke his chicken, I can’t see a thing he can do.

Exactly right.

We knew it long ago but the fawning public at large did not or refused to see it. They needed to see just how bad it can get...and so quickly in order to wake up. There will always be the leftie-looney fringe but they’re in the minority. I’m very optimistic this year, more so than in the last 2 years.

It isn’t goingt o be too much longer with his poll numbers falling that he doesn’t finally show his true self to the American people. WE all know exactly who and what he is but soon they all will see too. I can’t wait until he shows his @$$ like I know he will.

He is steadily losing weight.

His eyes were very puffy as he spoke at the church service today. His left eye was nearly closed.
