Of Me I Sing
American Spectator ^ | 12/20/10 | The Prowler

People like to talk about the bubble that President Barack Obama lives in, pointing out that he surrounded by more than the usual number of sycophants in this White House.

"You have Valerie [Jarrett] berating just about anyone who she even perceives has said something negative about the President," says one White House media aide. "She's constantly on her cell phone taking down some CEO or Senator or Congressional chief of staff for some slight, whether it actually was or not."

Then there are the manipulative advisers who create media events like the one at Arlington, Virginia's Long Branch Elementary School last week. Before heading over to the school, Obama was prepared to read Clement Moore's, "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" and leave it at that. But according to the White House source, a senior adviser and the White House advance staff informed him that the class had also requested that he read from his own book, Of Thee I Sing, which was recently published in the hopes of major holiday sales.

None of Emperor Obama’s advisers will tell him that the new clothes are nonexistent.

That an employee of the government is on the phone telling free citizens how they have to talk about the president is chilling.

I know it’s probably unrealistic to say that today, but I find it chilling. If Bush had made a habit of it my bet is the NYT would be screaming facism.

According to a source inside Random House, employees there believe [Obama's] children's book, which highlights the lives of famous Americans, was written in house and Obama approved the text some time in 2009 before it went to print.

LOL! Ya think?
