Obama no longer commands respect
WaPo ^ | 30 Aug 2013 | Jennifer Rubin

Posted on 08/30/2013 3:13:54 PM PDT by Rummyfan

Mark your calendar: Aug. 28, 2013. That was the day the roof fell in on President Obama. Our closest ally, Congress, the media and our military demonstrated their utter contempt for him. He has tried to avoid the world and U.S. involvement in it, so, naturally, his sudden call to arms (however weak and unsatisfactory) has provoked waves of skepticism.

He snuck into office via an elaborate charade.

Anyone who voted for Hussein in 2008 deserves America’s pity.

The “Office” deserves respect but he has never deserve respect. Why? Because respect must be EARNED!

I think it is just from a Jennifer Rubin blog, so it doesn't really count.

The pResident has never really commanded any respect. Yes he has his legions of idolaters, but there is no respect. Respect needs to be earned. And if someone has done nothing all his life but whined and flapped his jaws - what is there to respect? His nickname is Zero for a reason.

You don’t “command” respect, you EARN it.
Obama has never earned a damn thing in his entire life.

If pity can be delivered in the form of a severe beating, I agree.

That particular columnist is a WaPo Republican regular. Good on them for having her.

I especially liked the reader comment:

” But this lightweight dilettante has been utterly unserious and thus is accorded no respect.”

Lightweight dilettante perfectly describes Odumbo.
