Not about you, huh?

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 22, 2009 11:23 AM

Via JWF, Obama proves that it is indeed all about him:

Grassley said he spoke with a Democratic House member last week who shared Obama’s bleak reaction during a private meeting to reports that some factions of House Democrats were lining up to stall or even take down the overhaul unless leaders made major changes.

“Let’s just lay everything on the table,” Grassley said. “A Democrat congressman last week told me after a conversation with the president that the president had trouble in the House of Representatives, and it wasn’t going to pass if there weren’t some changes made … and the president says, ‘You’re going to destroy my presidency.’”

    I don’t think I’ve ever read a more self-obsessed statement as this. This is what this man is about. No matter that this legislation is about one of the single most important aspects of the USA economy and also the well being of the USA citizens. It’s all about The One and his ego. I’m always wary when pushy salesmen try to rush me into a purchase, that’s usually when I say “I’ll think about it”.

    I’m not sure either. Earlier into his presidency, I read somewhere that some from his inner circle remarked that he doesn’t like dealing with foreign policy. He also doesn’t show up in the Oval Office till 9am. I immediately had the impression that he doesn’t actually like to work. After all, what real job has he ever held? When he was president of Harvard Law Review, he apparently left most of the heavy lifting to his assistant editors, and only showed up to glad hand people. This guy is lazy.

    I have an inkling that something will happen before 2012, where he will find a reason not to run, especially if his poll numbers continue their trajetory. They’ll manufacture some kind of sob story, and he’ll quietly retire, surfacing to make speeches on college campuses, and writing his memoirs.

    One can only hope. ;)

    his photo reminds me of the photos of him during the campaign where he gave hillary and juan the finger. he had that same f.u. look, which is why no one believed him when he denied it saying he was just scratching his nose.

    Does anybody besides me worry about his guy’s mental stability…???

    Yes, I am concerned that he will become bitter and vindictive and focus solely on reviving his legacy and punishing his detractors. I fear this will lead to a complete lack of leadership and a whole host of other problems – especially with our “friends” in Iran, North Korea, etc.

    Think he’s going to run in 2012?

    Not without a frickin birth certificate, he ain’t!

    Not if he’s proven to be an impostor.

    In one of Hannity’s America TV segment, Sean Hannity mentioned an Army Reserve officer that refuse to obey his military order assigning him to Iraq. This patriot’s rationale is that unless he sees the Anointed One”’s birth certificate proving that he is a natural born U.S. citizen, he will not comply with the order because it is not a legal order and OHB is NOT THE LEGITIMATE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF. The Army Officer’s orders were REVOKED WITHOUT ANY REASON OR EXPLANATION by the Army.
    I think it’s in You Tube.

    The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in. He must reflect what is projected upon him. And he must have a strong sense of the sardonic. This is what uncouples him from belief in his own pretensions. The sardonic is all that permits him to move within himself. Without this quality, even occasional greatness will destroy a man.

    OT, but I just read a fantastic post on Breitbart from poster “ttiwkram” on the subject of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel’s claim they had “rescused the economy from the worst recession.”

    ttiwkram wrote, “We may well look back on those remarks as the Obama administration’s “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED” moment. “

    Hat tip to him.

    I’ve been following that story at WND. The “offending” officer has been joined by other officers, including general officers, active and retired. The fight is not over, by any means.

    Flyoverman, you are such a bigot. You are automatically assuming ttiwkram is not trans-gender. Why do you so biased against trans-gender people?

    I’m thinking this is going to be the longest lame duck presidency in history.

    This guy putt it all on the line in the first six months. So if this fails (along with crap and trade) he will have spent all of his capital. 18 month lame duck president.
