Above all others[OBAMA]
Pittsburg-Tribune Review ^ | November 15, 2010 | By Ralph R. Reiland

Posted on 11/16/2010 2:31:06 AM PST by Ronbo1948

In his biography of Obama, "The Bridge," David Remnick, editor of The New Yorker, quotes White House senior adviser and longtime Obama friend Valerie Jarrett: "I think Barack knew that he had God-given talents that were extraordinary. He knows exactly how smart he is. ... He knows how perceptive he is. He knows what a good reader of people he is. And he knows that he has the ability -- the extraordinary, uncanny ability -- to take a thousand different perspectives, digest them and make sense out of them, and I think that he has never really been challenged intellectually. ... So what I sensed in him was not just a restless spirit but somebody with such extraordinary talents that had to be really taxed in order for him to be happy. ... He's been bored to death his whole life. He's just too talented to do what ordinary people do."

Obama tries to break into the White House by way of window.

He’s smart...in a bad way.

What an idiot Jarrett is. Obama is NOT so intellectually superior that he’s bored, and needs to be challenged. He reminds me of a high school lightweight - too uncoordinated to play sports, not fast enough to be on the debate or scholastic scrimmage teams, and too lazy to do the real assignments to be at the top of the class. So he becomes the superior snob, acting cool - looking down at the peasants. I’ll bet he was the kind of kid who got back in sneaky ways at those who picked on him.

He's been bored to death his whole life.

A fawning analysis which bears the stench of his entire, "I'm better than you," attitude.

Maybe if he'd ever had to succeed on his own merits rather than enjoy the fruits of what others provided, life would get a little less boring.

Total post-turtle.

The Republicans stayed home in the millions because they couldn’t stand to vote for Maverick RINO John McCaine.

It makes a BIG difference in an election when the full “A” Team shows up at the polls to vote for Tea Party Republicans.

If her analysis is correct, Obama is surely the laziest man who ever lived, because he surely shows very little intellectual acumen.

Wow. He’s apparently a super being on the same level as Kim Jong Il. How fortunate we are that he is Our Very Own Dear Leader.

Obama's great gift is that he has the ability to identify sycophants whom he can convince of his apocryphal genius.

But now that he has had a chance to prove what he can do in the arena of action, performance, and demonstation, the proof just isn't in the pudding. Or as Forrest Gump's Mama used to say, "stupid is as stupid does."

Poor little Barry.

In the end, he is just another worthless self-professed genius...and they're a dime a dozen.

That's called passive aggressive...and that's exactly what Barry is.

In fact, that's what the entire Left Wing of America is. They can't compete in the free market, so they try to rig the system so they can damage the accomplishments of those who can.

This explains his cocaine use. And Ms Jarrett needs to touch up her lipstick.

Obama’s Jarret’s meal ticket; plus she’s a fellow traveler (Marxist.) She’ll go to her deathbed supporting a man who’s never done anything on his own. Schooling? Grades? Accomplishments other than community organizing and lying through his teeth 24/7? He’s truly the Manchurian Candidate, and she’s the North Korean general leading the garden club women.

Corpse man. Austrian language. 57 states. Introducing himself because it's on the teleprompter.

Maybe he should challenge himself by learning some incredibly basic things about the world he lives in.
