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.

“One of them said that Obama is far too inexperienced to have ever been president.”

Duh. I wish they’d come to that brilliant insight upon seeing that he’d never done anything in his life that anyone was allowed to see.

LOL I should have said tried to play him. He’s just cocky enough to think he’d get away with pulling one over on BJ. In the end, Obama shows himself as completely negligent and Clinton is as full of himself as ever, only not as good at selling his BS as in the old days. They both come across looking like the @sses they are.

“Even the way the presstitutes posed their questions changed when the man-child left the podium and the more professional liar took over.”

That’s funny.

"....it sounds to me like Obama just really, really needed a smoke. I lived with a smoker for many years, and there are just certain situations that trigger an unstoppable need."

I was once a big time smoker, and it's true. Unstoppable craving. When that chemical "urge" strikes, STAND BACK..... smokers will cut short phone calls, abruptly end meetings, vacate a lunch table, abandon hallway discussions, jump out of cars, freeze on the front steps, etc., etc. So I agree, Obama's performance had the distinct look of a nicotine "fit". Sadly, I used to do all those things. If this was the reason for this atrocious behaviour, I feel sorry for him. It's a vicious addiction, and pure poison to the body.

On the other hand, he may simply be the product of a lack of etiquette and the social graces in his formative years.

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

That’s why he’s constantly playing basketball, golf and going on vacations - it’s a low grade way of escapism. If he could he’d probably be toking marajuana - who knows, mebbe he is...he certainly has before.

As a former heavy smoker I know that he could get through these things if that is indeed his problem. Just needs some nicotine gum stashed in his pocket. It staves off those intense cravings and is socially acceptable, albeit very addictive itself....@#$%

“This is a breach of Presidential Protocol”

Wow - how many dozens of those breaches have we seen the past 2 years?

Obama was never reallt challenged his entire life. He had everything handed to him and was never questioned. Always praised and never criticized.While running for POTUS, he was handed the office like he was handed everything else by both the news media and the GOP by putting up a RINO who gave Obama the office.
Now faced with harsh work, he basically just gave up.
The compare Hitler with Obama is unfair....To Hitler. AT least Hitler was faced with failure and overcame it{Ok, he did it by crawling over the bodies of enemies and Jews} But at least he would never walk away from a podium{he would have had the reported shot}

“Imagine Putin turning over such a delicate matter to one of his predecessors? What must he be thinking of Obama now? What are the Chinese thinking now? Iran? N Korea?
Obama may well have had the intention of having a father figure go out and calm the senate, but he opened Pandora’s box IMO with the rest of the world and his base.”

Next thing they will laugh their heads off, like we are.

After that, I don’t know. Dear God I hope Biden invokes Amendment 25.

I just can not see them bargaining with him and expecting him to stand up for his position. He will be treated like the push over he is. Offer him something to make him look good as they take whatever they want.

Of course WJC took advantage of the situation. it was like watching him turn the blade after sticking it in .. the blade was curved as well ;-)
(at least thats what Monica said)
