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.

“I can laugh and cry. As bad as Jimmy was, I don’t think he ever turned over the podium to an ex-President did he?

This puts me in the mood to watch Back to the Future.”

He might have if there was a former democratic President still alive when he was President, he was/is that big of a numbskull. President Truman, JFK LBJ all passed away before he become President. He would have never given the mic to a Republican. IKE already passed away. So he only had the choices between Presidents Nixon and Ford.

No telling...but one thing is certain now. Obama doesn’t really care about his duties to our country. He is in it for the perks..expensive outrageous vacations and partying with sports stars and Hollywood. He is behaving like a paranoid coke head and sociopath.

That wouldn't be terribly surprising if it actually happened. Obozo and his crowd do roll that way...

I think it entirely possible that Obama is sorry he won. He is in over his head and it shows.

Too bad zero's mother is dead. Otherwise, he could hold a press conference and say, "Uh, sorry. My mom says I have to come home now, so I can't be president any more."

Certainly. I didn’t mean to imply he was a good POTUS, just a real one. You know, as opposed to the phony we have now.

Clinton says “Read Krauthammer. He’s Brilliant”

I gotta tell you, this whole thing is one of the weirdest, most bizarre political days I have ever witnessed in my whole life.

We have Clinton, praising Dr. Charles Krauthhammer, M.D. Harvard - who is brilliant, but is also a Conservative intellectual who makes Democrats look like worms when they debate him.

We have a Communist/Socialist from Vermont on the Senate floor throwing a tantrum.

This wasn't "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington." It was "Comrade Sanders Goes to Mental Hospital."

To top it all off, we have BJ Clinton, looking like a frickin genius, and appearing to be in charge of our nation. After the nightmare of Moochelle (Where's MY next VAC-a-TION!) and the Community Organizer, Bill Clinton looks like Winston Churchill in comparison.

Did you see the presstitutes joy and nostalgia, calling Clinton "Mr. President" and actually getting coherent answers from the guy? It was un-frikin-belivale.

They will re-run that tape someday, and it will be the "Muskie Crying" moment for Obama.

What an astute observation. Seriously, with his wife as Secretary of State, this could be viewed as a political coup in a different country.

That it is not viewed that way, and that it wasn't a coup, does make me slightly more positive that we'll survive this imbecile's disastrous one-term presidency.

His wife and him are just there getting the free perks, Going to a party instead of dealing with the questions and walking out right there saying I’ve kept her waiting shows he has never took his job seriously.

People are dying and losing homes jobs and this clown say in front of the world I have to go to a party as my wife has been waiting, WTF

IMO, Clinton took back control of the party. BO looked like a simple puppet, summoned back to a social party by the women who rule the domestic roost.

That’s what struck me- how Clinton answered the questions- how he understood the issues- how he didn’t have to fake it. If I were a Dem I would have three reactions- 1) Ok, now I understand why I should support this bill ..2) Oh GOD why can’t we have HIM back? and 3) WHAT was I thinking when I voted for OBama?

It was impossible not to compare the two men- and Obama came off as invisible.

NO, I looked at a couple of threads over there, I guess I should have save that particular link. I just took a quick look to try and find it but couldn't handle being there too long.

Ran across this one though, now they're throwing bammie and clinton under the bus, Sanders is their new God:

BO said he brought out Clinton because he presided over the best economy the country ever had. An idea for a SNL skit: BO talks about the Republicans holding Americans hostage, and then brings out his hostage crisis expert, Jimmy Carter.

It will not be lost on the media that Clinton speaks fluently, at length, and in complete sentences on a broad range of topics, and does not require a Teleprompter to do it.

Bingo. I never thought I would ever say this, but I would rather have Bill Clinton in that office than the current impostor. For all his faults, Bill Clinton has an uncanny ability to know and reach his audience. He practically has a photographic memory. And his ego is such that he will never allow himself to be ignorant of any issue. If he doesn't know something, then he will find out who does and learn the right questions to ask. With Obama, all he cares about is himself. I really believe he is a sociopath.
