Obama installs Clinton alone at the podium, leaves him to it; Obama gone, Clinton still there

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.

...he wasn’t all red faced and puffy as he was in 2001-2006. He looked like someone very worried about his health who has spent a year eating ...

Huh? His face is almost as red as a beet. A year eating?

Forget the sarcasm tag?

[La Lydia]

Okay that was hilarious. I feel good. Woo. Clinton, according to them, is a corporatist warmonger! They are bit-tah.

[Las Vegas Ron]

What’s is your take on this?

I think bammie lost HIS standing today.

As another FReeper put it, it was a Coup d' TOTUS.

[NonValueAdded]

Yes, this is bad. 25th Amendment bad.

[right way right]

Real simple.

Obama does not want to have to respond on the fly to anything Clinton may let slip.

[La Lydia]

Big dog.

Take This Job and Shove It
I ain’t working here no more
My woman done left
and took all the reasons
I was working for
You better not try to stand in
my way as I’m walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain’t working here no more

Yea that is classless Obama.

[jacquej]

At least he didn’t haul out the “gotta go clean up after Bo” excuse!

[STARWISE]

And he didn’t say:

Uhh .. aahhh .. errr ... the .the .the ... ummmm ..

‘Cause his wife knows all the dirt on him and can ruin him any time she wants to.

From the second video:

Clinton: "I still spend about an hour a day trying to study this economy."

That's about an hour a day more than Obama spends on all Presidential issues combined. His day doesn't begin until 9:30 am at which time he attends his hour-long daily briefing. At around 9:50 am, he excuses himself from the meeting and asks someone to take notes for him. After that, his schedule is free for the remainder of the day.

That picture is going to give me nightmares tonight....

i need about 10 rolaids.

[NurseZac]

I don’t know what he was thinking but turning his podium over to Clinton and the *lame* excuse given made him look exceptionally weak. There is something wrong with that man.

[livius]

A lot of us have been speculating that Bammie is getting ready to quit. This sure seems like a prelude to it.

I wonder if he’s been offered a UN job or something he really wants. Grand Mufti of the Universe, for example.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Geeze...I thought the original of that picture was fugly but that one is nightmare material...yeesh.

[little jeremiah]

Clinton may be a slick politician and inifinitely smarter than the brain damaged 0bastard, but he's on the wrong side! We don't want a better politician on the wrong side!

I will never forget the horrible years of the Clintoon presidency. Never.

[Red in Blue PA]

obama=FAIL

[upstanding]

“I don’t want to make her mad, please go,”

Ouch.

Early in presidential primaries, didn't Jesse Jackson that fantasize about cutting off Barry Soetoro's balls?

Bill Clinton just delivered Barry's Little Boy Balls on a silver platter.

[Hoodat]

It was purely a comparitive statement.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Obama does not want to have to respond on the fly to anything Clinton may let slip.

Can you just hear the questions for bammie in the future..."Last week, President Clinton said....can you clarify or how do you respond?
