Obama installs Clinton alone at the podium, leaves him to it; Obama gone, Clinton still there
Vanity | December 10, 2010

Posted on 12/10/2010 2:01:24 PM PST by La Lydia

The darnedest thing just happened on TV. Still happening. Obama takes Clinton to the White House press briefing room. Turns the podium over to Clinton, and leaves the room. If you didn't have the sound on your TV, it looked like Obama resigned and handed over to Clinton. Clinton still talking, setting up dueling filibuster with Bernie Sanders. Clinton at that podium is bad deja vu.

It’s just too hard. It’s just too much for one man. This is the new Democratic party model.

The display of weakness is staggering.”

Rule by comitty, didn’t the soviets try that after Nikita whats his name?

This is historic. This is the first time an American president tapped out of a press conference.

If Obama doesn’t see a problem with leaving Clinton at the podium it must be alright. Doesn’t the media think he’s the smartest man in the room?

Can you just imagine what is going through Rush's head right now?

You know he has to be just DYING to get behind the microphone!

Truly! If only this had happened while Rush was on the air...it would have been epic. Maybe Rush will use the occasion to grab a microphone from Greta this evening as he sometimes does. This would be the time!

I wish I had the guts to watch MSNBC to see how they spin this. If they turn on him he really is a “goner”.

Th rest of the world already knows what a loser he is. It’s just now (two years later) catching up to some of the losers that voted for him.

But after Mr. Clinton began taking questions, the current president excused himself, saying that the first lady, Michelle, expected Mr. Obama’s presence at one of the many holiday parties that presidents host during the month of December.

“I’ve been keeping the first lady waiting,” Mr. Obama said, excusing himself.

“I don’t want to make her mad,” Mr. Clinton said. “Please go.”

Then Clinton literally hugged the podium as if to say, “I’m in charge.”

Clinton just staged a party coup. Obama's a goner.

I was just thinking; "if this happened in Russia, or anywhere but here, we'd be talking coup d'etat, not comedy". I hate to think that way, but I think you're right. Either the democrats are extremely toast, or they're extremely dangerous. Either way, I don't like this. Not one bit. Except for this: Finally obama has come clean, and showed himself publicly as the sock-puppet we knew he was all along. And having a clue about the identity of the puppeteer is helpful.

I saw the replay and thought O’bummer resigned. No such luck but a good rehearsal for the future, too bad it will be our doofus VP taking over.
