Mired in the summer of his discontent, President Obama on Thursday coined a new phrase for the absurdity of a Washington August, when lawmakers and lobbyists vacation outside the Beltway but pollsters and chatterers go right on polling and chattering.
"There's something about August going into September where everybody in Washington gets all wee-wee'd up," the world's most powerful man observed. "I don't know what it is, but that's what happens."
So, it made perfect sense that, during wee wee'd Washington's "silly season," the president took to the conservative radio airwaves to declare that he wants a bipartisan fix for America's health care system and that a federal takeover is just "an option." Mr. Obama then spent some time with a group of die-hard campaign supporters, telling them, "We're going to win this debate. ... Let's go get 'em!"
Just seven months in office, the legendarily cool Mr. Obama is in the throes of a summer meltdown. Massive opposition to his sweeping proposal to overhaul America's health care system has prompted the normally unflappable president to lose his cool, and, on a bizarre but blisteringly hot day in the nation's capital, to strike back at the far right and stoke up the far left.
The day opened with Mr. Obama sitting down with Michael Smerconish in the White House Diplomatic Reception Room, an appropriate venue for a presidential interview with a conservative radio talk-show host who broke ranks and endorsed the Democratic candidate in 2008.
Under a portrait of George Washington and in front of a cozy fireplace, the two engaged in a 25-minute diplomatic exchange, with the friendly host firing off courteous questions.

I think he was talkin' abut gettin' stoned, man.
Wee weed means, y'know, a little weed.
“Wee the people...”
“Get back to me when he sits down with Mark Levin for an on-air chat... “
Yes me too.
Just who is Michael Smerconish? Never heard of him.
Wee Wee on Obama and his poo-poo Health Care Bill.
He is going up to the Vineyard and be with his Buddy Gates.
He will be fine when he gets back.
This little piggy went to market.
This little piggy stayed at home.
This little piggy has roast beef,
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy cried "Wee! Wee! Wee!" all the way home.
Zogby has Obama at 45% this morn, for your good news Friday. Some cool Friday music.
Keep the pressure up. We surround them, never forget that.
Smerconish is a Philadelphia morning talk show host who parades himself around as a conservative but loves being used by MSNBC as their token conservative on Hardball or other left wing shows. He supported Obama in the campaign and this interview was his reward for being a good toadie. Smerconish is a fake, phoney and a fraud and should be exposed as such.
......a conservative radio talk-show host who broke ranks .....
Perhaps he needs a descriptive, how about conservative progressive?
I wonder if he really meant to say “all keyed up” but got the ‘k’ mixed up with a ‘w’. In other words, when he said “wee” he caught himself and realized that wasn’t right but he couldn’t immediately recall the correct letter, but had to keep going, and so he just plowed ahead with “weyed” instead of keyed.
Obama is so articulate. Soon, he'll really lose his cool and say that people who oppose his health care agenda are full of poopy.
he's a maroon. someone else took a his college tests.
Mr. President:
Go wee-wee up a rope.
Very possible the communist imbecile stepped on his flapping tongue once again!
He may be a liberal Republican, but he cannot be ANY kind of Conservative. That is very different from Republican. He may be Libertarian, but he is not Conservative. Let us keep that word for those who have similar values, not for a talk show host whose ideas are not even close to conservative ideas.
Earth to Kenyan Imposter....It’s not us..it’s you.
So, Zero wee weeded in his empty suit?
