Obama has no patience for 'you didn't build that' attacks

SEATTLE – President Barack Obama said Tuesday that he's losing his patience over the Republican attacks aimed at his “you didn’t build that” comment.

“I have to tell you, I generally have patience with what the other side says about me, that’s a requirement of this job,” Obama said during a $5,000-per-plate fundraiser here, according to the pool report.

“And if you don’t like folks talking about you, you probably shouldn’t run for president. The one thing I do have no patience for is this argument that somehow what I’m criticizing is success… I want to promote success," Obama said.

Obama has no problem with success as long as it’s redistributed and shared equally by all.

I have no patience for Obama.

Does that mean he now has to leave the White Hut?

Schmuck.

Too bad.

His usual straw man method ... micharacterize the critics’ argument. While its true he doesn’t like private-sector success, the point of the criticism is that he doesn’t think people DESERVE their success such that they have a claim to be able to keep their own money.

He should be getting a lot more than this to be impatient about. We should be "impatient"-ing him right out of office.

Nobody does anything alone. Obama hasn't done anything on his own. Government does NOTHING on its own. Again, Obama has opened wide the door to the REAL point which is not being made. The REAL POINT here is in a free country with a free-market economy, others help you VOLUNTARILY because of mutual benefit, whereas under Obama's socialism and Obamacare, others are FORCED and COERCED to contribute UNDER CRIMINAL PENALTIES.

Will someone please REPEAT THAT POINT loud and clear a few hundred times over all the available loudspeakers? Thank you.

"Obama has no patience with 'you didn't build that' attacks"

Sounds to me like an invitation to amp up the 'you didn't build that' attacks by an order of magnitude.

Poor Bams. He can’t backpedal this one. Sounds like “The Won” is getting all wee-wee’d up.

Jennifer Rubin at WashPo nailed it. She calls Obama's new ad explaining how he luuuvs small business his "I am not a witch" ad.

Obama's problem is that he wants to use this casual, folksy way of speaking, which is imprecise by nature. So when he says something casual, he can't parse it nine ways to nowhere like Bill Clinton always could. He's just not that bright.

Do you notice that he never said he wants success of the private sector?

President Obama is all for the success of gov’t.

Might it be the same lack of patience on the part of those who build businesses who are told that they didn’t build their businesses?

Just asking.

Fearless prediction time: Obama is going to get all tired of this constant criticism and decide that he really wants to spend more time with his family.

He drops the bomb right before the Democrat Convention, and the DNC will nominate Hillary! for President.

The bad thing about this scenario is that Hillary! wins...

Reminds me of the Jack Nicholson character in "A Few Good Men".... " I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way."

I think Obummer has the "I'm above it all" mentality and if Romney plays it right, just like Tom Cruise did in the movie, he will get Obummer to really blow a cork at some point.

Either that or Obummer will be found lying in a fetal position in a corner somewhere sucking his thumb.
