Is Barry Whiffing?

New York Times ^ | APRIL 29, 2014 | Maureen Dowd

Three times in her current diatribe Mo Dowd in effect accuses Barry of being un-American!

“But that being said, you are the American president. And the American president should not perpetually use the word ‘eventually.’ And he should not set a tone of resignation with references to this being a relay race and say he’s willing to take ‘a quarter of a loaf or half a loaf,’ and muse that things may not come ‘to full fruition on your timetable.’

“An American president should never say, as you did to the New Yorker editor, David Remnick, about presidents through history: ‘We’re part of a long-running story. We just try to get our paragraph right.’

“Mr. President, I am just trying to get my paragraph right. You need to think bigger.

“An American president should never say, as you did Monday in Manila when you got frustrated in a press conference with the Philippine president: ‘You hit singles; you hit doubles. Every once in a while, we may be able to hit a home run.’”

Democrats and Mo Dowd wanted an Anti-American president and that is what they got! He is also obviously hiding being a non-American, IMO.

Think 1948.

Branch Rickey brings Jackie Robinson up to play for the Dodgers. He's a fabulous ballplayer.

Think 2008. The Democrats bring up Barack Obama. He can't play worth a damn.

This is known as "Progress."

The tide may actually be turning.

Thank you. As I scrolled down past 14 posts I was starting to worry that FR traditions were fading....

Thanks! IMHO, until Dowd kicks it, the rules are in play, just as they were for Helen Thomas, until that unsavory beast assumed room temperature.
