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.

>“This is a breach of Presidential Protocol”

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

You mean including Obama bowing to the Burger King?

“that Clinton played Obama like a red-headed stepchild for all the world to see. _”

Well they don’t call him ‘slick willy’ for nothing. I am sure Hillary is laughing her a$$ off tonight.

[Wile E Coyote Genius]

I have not seen the speech Slick Willy gave. Tell me, did he make Obozo look like a complete imbecile? I also agree that Obozo is on his way out of office. I think he will resign or Biden will do the 25th amendment.

“I don’t think it will go down in history, because mostly liberals write the history that Americans have vaguely heard about. And liberals are likely to omit the occurrence of today entirely. Now they will write for an eternity about Reagan’s confused state of mind in the first debate with Mondale, but they won’t mention this at all. And I don’t think the American people will mind, as they have a soft spot still for “their bill.””

"I also agree that Obozo is on his way out of office."

The whole world saw him leave office today. Walked right out.

It honestly looked to me as if he said “I quit”. However I don’t understand him putting Clinton in charge. He can’t be President again. Biden may be, but not Clinton. Not even Bush jr. could be President again. I can’t believe Biden allowed this without going to congress and trying to enact Amendment 25. He had every right to!

[bruinbirdman]

Biden has grounds to sue.

He said the next best thing, code: "I need to spend more time with my wife."

I watched the entire conference. It was truly surreal.

This, I think, was oscumbag’s ultimate admission of gross incompetence and epic failure. He had to have big borther Bubba come talk for him. Mr. Eloquence couldn’t ‘splain himself to his commie base. No wonder he took off and left Bubba at the press lectern.

This is the first time that I’m aware of that a sitting president deferred to a former president to officially, front and center, make his case for him.

The Hildebeast was right about the 3:00 am phone call. This candyass can’t even handle a domestic tax issue without calling in a former president to talk for him.

Looks like those spray-painted Greek columns didn’t work out so well for oscumbag after all. It turns out he’s not a God.

[ratsreek]

It really was stunning to see. This just said it all as to how incompetent, useless and gutless this poseur is.

We’ve all heard the term “paper tiger”. Oscumbag isn’t even a paper kitten.

I sometimes wonder if Obama is even told everything that goes on around the world in his daily briefings. I mean if you were in charge of the nations inteligence, would you really want the O telling the wookie about it at night? I think GHWB, Clinton and GW at least knew what was going on, even if they didn’t always act on it but for some reason I don’t think Obama even has a clue. Reagan, GHWB, Clinton And GWB all had movers and shakers in thier administrations, people who could pick up the phone and get things done. Back in January of 1981, when RR was being sworn in, our hostages in Iran were being released.Thats what movers and shakers do, they get $%i# done. Obama doesn’t have anyone that could do something like that.He is just a pitiful little pipsquek.

Obama’s backers can’t be too happy about this but they must be sighing in relief that he wasn’t excusing himself to go “scoop poop” this time.

Who is the man sitting next to Gibbs? He followed after Obama while Gibbs stood around looking chagrined as Clinton kept talking.

[eastforker]

Coming soon, President Biden and VP HR CLINTON. If by chance Obama was to step down, is there any doubt in anyones mind that the logical first choice for Bidens VP wouldn’t be SoS Clinton? I made that prediction back in ‘08 and todays actions brought it just one step closer.

[Katarina]

Great list of what happened. You can add this to it too. Obama only had one thing on his schedule Friday. 3:00 The President meets with President Clinton Oval Office LOL so he might have only used a lie of his as an excuse to have to leave and get the heck out of there at the press conference. haha

GOOD ONE!!!

[LibertyRocks]

Thanks for the link to the video. It’s loading now...
I’m sitting here in disbelief just reading through the thread! Obama is SO incredibly weak! He can’t even defend his own actions?
I cannot WAIT for January! I sure hope the new “Class” is already starting to gather evidence for an impeachment hearing... Un - friggin - believable!!!

[homegroan]

maybe he’s Clinton’s ‘Gibbs’....

Obama’s facial expression is showing absolute disdain for this; I think the powers that be MADE him do this-or else Wiki would find his BC and stick it to his forehead.
