Wonder if the MSM will notice that, in his overweening ego, during his MSNBC townhall today President Obama seemed to falsely proclaim himself the only official representing the whole of the United States. Vice-President of the United States. Chief Justice of the United States. Hello?
Now, to be precise, President Obama did say that his was "the only office in which you are the president of all the people." Well, yeah, the president is the only president. But surely the prez didn't intend that trivial tautology. Presumably he meant to say his is the only constitutional office with responsibility for the entire nation. And that's just untrue.

I, Obama. Ping to Today show list.
That’s the definition of DICTATOR !!!
That picture makes want to barf....
Hoping witout any real hope that Congress or the Courts will create a
Potus Interruptus problem.
He doesn’t “get” the first damned thing about the USA. Other than knowing he hates it.
I’m President and I have no Clue what that means , D’oh
Thanks for the ping, Mark. Very important look at POSOTUS.
(you’re working overtime here) BUMP!
At this point, he’d by a martyr. I wouldn’t be surprised if the marxists offed him, but probably not. He benefits them tremendously D or A.
He benefits us alive. (low information wake ups with more information)
Thanks. I haven’t lately expressed my thanks to you for all your support.
As bad as this was, it wasn’t even the worst thing Obama said during the townhall. He also threatened “consequences” for Border or ICE agents who don’t obey his exec amnesty, even though a federal judge has ruled it be illegal. Are we under the rule of law any more?
I do not want to look at the creeps face anymore.
His look, his aura, has a foulness about it that radiates his arrogant contempt for everything that is good and worthy.
I expressed my concern and BUMPED great posters on that thread

Thanks again sir for all of your work and quite possibly the greatest screen name on FR. Well thought.
I’m going to take this opportunity to try and explain something that few people comprehend. The President of the United States is not empowered by the Constitution to rule people inhabiting the 50 States in any sense. He is President of the geographic jurisdiction allowed by the Constitution, and the institutions lawfully created by the Constitution. When the country is at war his powers expand to allow for defense of the homeland, BUT... his affiliation with the citizens of the various States is ALMOST NIL. Of course in a practical sense this is not true, but only because we have lost the basic understanding of a free republic.
so what you’re saying is Obama forgot his Teleprompter and his ear piece broke
Yes!
Good post.
RE 12
Perfect!
