News Flash: Debate Was Beneath Obama
NRO The Corner ^ | October 8, 2012 | Rich Lowry

Posted on 10/08/2012 7:33:55 AM PDT by Unam Sanctam

From the New York Times:

Mr. Obama does not like debates to begin with, aides have long said, viewing them as media-driven gamesmanship. He did not do all that well in 2008 but benefited from Senator John McCain’s grumpy performances. Mr. Obama made clear to advisers that he was not happy about debating Mr. Romney, whom he views with disdain. It was something to endure, rather than an opportunity, aides said.

I cannot think of a person on this earth for whom I have less regard than this fake, cheating, never has worked a day in his life, idiot.

He is slime.

He is smegma.

He is stupid.

There is not a single profitable job that he could hold.

He is nothing.

He is the only place in the multiverse that is so diverse of energy that even quantum particles refuse to appear.

There is nothing there.

He is a perfect vacuum.

And - -

He sucks.

“What I saw was contempt; he resented being there.”

Exactly, but he is so devious he has everyone believing he is a NICE guy.

Whatever, I never thought he was a nice guy.

Mr. Obama does not like debates to begin with, aides have long said, viewing them as media-driven gamesmanship dangerously devoid of affirmative action outcomes .

There, fixed it.

The entire NY Times article gives me great hope for all the debates to go Mitt’s way. Obama is clueless.

Well if Bam will just show up and “endure” two more times he won’t have to worry about it anymore. He will be retired.

This reminds me of the dumbasses I knew in college who would always explain their failing grades as some disabilty that made them unable to “take tests”

I had one professor who would tear anyone apart who said that to him- He would ask them a question fromt he test and verbally tear them a new one when they could not answer - and said the reason they “can’t take tests” appears to be because they DONT KNOW ANYTHING

The O had to descend from his White Tower and mix with a mere mortal.

Ironically, The O has about as much substance as those styrofoam Greek Columns he used in 2008.

“Mr. Romney, whom he views with disdain”

He knows that Romney is the man that Obama will never be.

In the future, we could see an end to debates. When you have a front-runner who is not good at debating, or is, as Obama, an affirmative action president; there really is no reason to engage in debates. I guess we're fortunate that Obama deigned to do any debates at all.

That would be one for the ages, love to see it. In fact, I’d love to see West debate some of our beloved RINO’s and show them for what they are.

Disdain? Really?
I mean, I don’t care much for his flip-flopping, change his mind with the wind politics, but disdain for the man?

Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts was recruited to play Mr. Romney. The preparation team was kept small. The most important players were Mr. Axelrod; David Plouffe, the president’s senior adviser; and Anita Dunn, a former White House communications director.

The Mao loving commie is back! Wait a minute, was she ever actually gone?

Two otherwise obscure West memories: A lady in Virginia called into one of the C-Span channels and claimed she was from a military background. She called West a traitor to his uniform for criticizing the Commander in Chief. His response was fabulous. The other was earlier this summer when a black guy, though West didn't know that, called West a “buffoon” and “99% of blacks think you are a joke.” Again, the response was amusing but powerful. The liberal media would wet their pants if West ever debated someone as shallow as Obama.

All his life Obama has had everything handed to him..college, law school, law review, a teaching job, a state senate seat, the US senate, and the WEH ( by the MSM)..the ONE time he faced a tough opponent..when he challenged sitting congressman Bobby Rush for his House seat, he got clobbered 2:1..He’s never had to work or fight hard for something...and he can’t believe that he’s losing..
