News Flash: Debate Was Beneath Obama

From the New York Times:

Mr. Obama does not like debates to begin with, aides have long said, viewing them as media-driven gamesmanship. He did not do all that well in 2008 but benefited from Senator John McCain’s grumpy performances. Mr. Obama made clear to advisers that he was not happy about debating Mr. Romney, whom he views with disdain. It was something to endure, rather than an opportunity, aides said.

This is stating the obvious.

[Da Coyote]

Given theat the Obamadorn/felon/cretin is the baseline below which intelligence cannot be measured, just what exactly is below him?

[stocksthatgoup]

He doesn’t like questions from the press either. Oprah, the View seem to be the exception.

[brivette]

well put.

[brivette]

well put.

[Red Badger]

Without a teleprompter with Jarett telling him what to say he’s totally lost.................

[SWAMPSNIPER]

I’d love to see a real warrior like Allen West debate Obama.

[duffee]

I’m sure obama has the same disdain for Romney he has for most American citizens,it may even be stronger than my disdain for him, he appears to be driven by hate.

[lormand]

Obama has a point. Other dictators who were above debates...

Stalin
Lenin
Hitler
Atilla the Hun
Kim Jong-Ill
Ho Chi Ming
Castro

Is this excuse number 100 or only number 99.

All that I read there simply stated that Hussein views with disdain those people who demonstrate that they are light years smarter than he.

[SMARTY]

The debate is ‘W O R K’ and “O” doesn’t like that.

Elsewhere, he apologized to his Hollywood friends that he can’t ‘perform’ well consisgently.

WTF!!

“O” thinks being President of the United States of America is a ‘performance’? What...? Really?? Like an actor performs?

“O” has NO CLUE what being President is.

[BenLurkin]

McCain’s grumpy performances

"Grump?

Does this look "grumpy"?

Mr. Obama made clear to advisers that he was not happy about debating Mr. Romney

.....when you have to hand over the club (obama's record) that's going to knock you into another dimension, it's understandable, but deserving

And the St. Louis Cardinals don't like the playoffs and should be just given the World Series trophy again this year without having to play the games.

I never bought the excuse that he was “distracted”. What I saw was contempt; he resented being there. And yes, he considers Romney to be “beneath” him. This tin pot thought he was a “god” (note the little “g”)with his Greek columns and adoring crowds. His keepers are only stating the obvious.

Well, he will learn just how many of us “little people” have an even greater contempt for HIM in November.

[Tigerized]

Like any other tin pot dictator, Skippy wants to approach the podium, blather on and on until he’s done, then retire to the applause of his sycophants.

Any sort of push back not allowed.

Is THIS what the founders had in mind?

[Sophia777]

why do these men have to smile and act like they like each other?

I wish Romney would really let him have it,
