"a man who invented himself as a force by writing one of the most eloquent memoirs in political history"

So that's how it's done. Occasionally, libs provide a window onto their world and confirm it's completely alien to mine. Thanks Mo.

This is very telling. Lefties elected 0 based on a belief in “magic” and are now dumbfounded to discover there is no such thing.

Poor Maureen still desperately clings to the romantic notion that Obama actually sat down and penned that book himself.

“That’s because he didn’t write the book. He is a charade. We elected this fraud based on a book??”

YES!!

It’s the only thing they have to point to as proof of his superior intelligence.

They don’t have a record of grades. No thesis.
His record as a senator in Illinois and the US are laughable.

All they’ve got is that book.

It was our ability and willingness to use the might of the US military that kept us safe. That is being dimantled and is creating such an explosive situation.

With the left and statists hitting us with “It’s for the children”, the children will be unimpressed when they are dead.

It’s impossible not to feel sorry for President Obama, pummeled by the cascading disasters, at home and abroad, unleashed by two war-mongering oil men

Bush's fault

"a man who invented himself as a force by writing one of the most eloquent memoirs in political history"

The pathetic thing is, even as she accepts the rather doubtful contention that Barack Obama (if that is his real name) actually wrote that book, Dowd admits that Obama is "invented" by it. Her best-case scenario is that Obama is a favorable fiction.

Unfortunately, fictions, no matter how attractive, don't amount to much when the Real World intervenes.

How does a man who invented himself as a force by writing one of the most eloquent memoirs in political history lose control of his own narrative?

Maybe someone else wrote for him Mo? Maybe none of it was true? Maybe it was all an invention, and you were sucked in?

Check into it. It's not hard if you lurk here at FreeRepublic.
