Near the end of his talk in Sandusky, Ohio, Obama told his audience he had made a commitment to think about them every morning when he arises.
“I want you to know that when I ran in 2008, I said I wasn't going to be a perfect man and I certainly wasn't going to be a perfect president, but I'd always tell you what I thought. I'd always tell you where I stood,” Obama said. “And, most of all, I would wake up every single day thinking about you…”
“How do I love me? Let me count the ways. Well, enough about me. What do YOU think of me? Anyone have a mirror for me? I need to kiss myself, as you all are dying to do to me...”
He PASSED healthcare...don’t you know. The One doesn’t need a congress.
Just wait til a second term.
I think of the Leonid Brezhnev and Erich Honecker kiss.
Classic case of Narcissistic maladjustment.
The same symptoms were exhibited by Stalin, Hitler, and many others of those on history’s List of Infamy.
Narcissist-in-Chief. He loves to hear himself talk about himself.
Words speak for themselves....
Hey, you’ve been thought about by The Won! What could be more comforting?
(WHAT AN EGOTIST)
Yeah, it was clear when he was elected and crystal clear now...we’ve got ourselves a real narcisist. Rather rare.
He’s going to blow, my friends. These guys always do. When the adoration drops off and people start seeing them as they are...GET READY! It’s coming!
And I’m going to love every second of this creeps take down...not to mention his fat arsed beard.
Wonder if Vogue will think old Down Low Barry and his boob wearing wife so uber cool next year?
Just another way he is Clinton II
Although he probably broke Bubba’s record
I, ME, MY, the boy's new handle, IMEMY!!!
Barry "Narcissus" Obama
"How do I love "me"...let me count the ways"
...or you WILL be getting a "visit" from one of my Fat Beatch, Big Sis's DHS Jack-Booted Thugs....!
"Hey, Barry...BRING IT!"
Originally said of the popular Bill Clinton; the American people like hearing about both of them.
