Obama Gives Himself a Shout Out While Addressing Troops: ‘We’ve Got Me In the House’

While addressing soldiers at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan, the president started giving shout outs to different military units “in the house,” each time eliciting cheers from the crowd. But after calling out a couple of those names, he quickly turned to evoking his own: “And we’ve got me in the house.”

They cheered.

The Washington Free Beacon captured the moment:

Yeah, sure it was. I'm sure that some officials high in the Paki Gov/Military were in on it($), and held back the Cops/Troops from coming to that compound until we had left. Meantime China is reverse engineering our stealth Copter.

If he loses, he’s got 2 and a half months. I, too, have wondered what he might do.

Scorched earth.

As Joe Biden told us, the raid to get Bin Laden was the most audacious military action of the last 500 years.

Did he really? Even assuming ignorance of most of that time period, surely a man of Joe Biden's generation has heard of the Doolittle Raid ... or if he wanted some anti-American points, the attack on Pearl Harbor!

I wonder if Slow Joe is really *that stupid*, or if it doesn't gall him, in his secret heart, to have to suck up to Chicago's Mister Fabulous 2008.

Yes, Caligula did that and worse.

From the unreliable Wikipedia:

In AD 40, Caligula began appearing in public dressed as various gods and demigods such as Hercules, Mercury, Venus and Apollo. Reportedly, he began referring to himself as a god when meeting with politicians and he was referred to as Jupiter on occasion in public documents.

And this:

Caligula had the heads removed from various statues of gods and replaced with his own in various temples. It is said that he wished to be worshipped as Neos Helios, the New Sun. Indeed, he was represented as a sun god on Egyptian coins.

And this:

Caligula's religious policy was a departure from that of his predecessors. According to Cassius Dio, living Emperors could be worshipped as divine in the east and dead Emperors could be worshipped as divine in Rome. Augustus had the public worship his spirit on occasion, but Dio describes this as an extreme act that emperors generally shied away from. Caligula took things a step further and had those in Rome, including Senators, worship him as a physical living god.

He’s a narcissstic sociopath

For that reason he really needs to stay on script. It's easy to tell when he goes off: I, me, my are every fifth word. Why should we be so impressed when a sociopath orders a killing? Because he has all the executive talent of Jimmy Carter?

It would be fascinating to find out who directs and writes the scripts. Who is behind the curtain? It certainly isn't the shell brand "Barky".
