Obama's Stumbling and Bumbling Phone Call to the New York Times
Rush 24/7 ^ | 3/10/09 | Rush 24/7

Posted on 03/10/2009 4:24:44 PM PDT by NoGrayZone

And for some reason, when the plane landed, Obama, or somebody, said, "You know, I think you're a little flippant on that socialist stuff." Obama thus thought it necessary to call the New York Times back and go for take two -- which they granted him the opportunity to do, of course. Go for take two on what he thinks about socialism. I have that. It is about two minutes and 11 seconds. Now, we normally have a sound bite policy here of not playing a sound bite any longer than a minute, but in this case, I want to play the whole sound bite, as found on the New York Times website. Because what I want you to notice here, is listen to the stuttering, bumbling mannerism as he talks his way through this phone call -- this backup, follow-up phone call to the New York Times. There is no teleprompter here. It is cringe inducing. And then to claim that Bush is the real socialist while he, Obama, is the free marketeer. So here it is, Barack Obama unplugged, including the prompter unplugged.

OBAMA: See, uhhh, I -- I -- eh -- Just one thing that, uhh, I was thinking about as I was, uhh, -- as I was -- getting off the, uhhh, copter 'cause, I -- uhhh -- you know, it was hard for me to believe you were entirely serious about that socialist question.

This is because he is a weak leader who is second guessing himself already.

Obamah, "Uhh, we, uhh, must, uhh, support our, uhh, muslim friends.

Sounds like Obama has a pretty thin skin. He can dish it out, but he can’t take it. He’s obsessed with what the liberal media says about him, and he makes sure they know of his displeasure.

But she can't distance herself from "that one", she's now a major component of his administration.

So goes Obamah, so goes Hillary.

We should considers ourselves very, very fortunate that this black nationalist racist, who is leading the most dangerous assault on civil liberties in American history, is a completely incapable affirmative action poster boy with a suboptimal IQ.

He vastly oversold himself into the job, and it's just becoming more apparent each and every day that he simply doesn't posses what it takes to succeed. Once the initial threat of having any of his policy initiatives passed (other than porkulus) is over, it might actually be fun having someone so utterly unqualified to be the representative face of the dependent welfare class.
