Not about you, huh?

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.’”

Whiner!
I’m okay with that…
No. Mr. President, you are trying to change this country into something we don’t want and the founding fathers did not intend.
His whole regime needs to be sprayed with Agent Orange.
No, Mr. President, your doing that all on your own!
Sonofdy says, how can I assist with that?

Let’s hope so, he’s trying to destroy our country.
I hope Obama fails miserably.
Sounding more and more like a bizarre combination of Jimmy Carter and Richard Nixon – both at their worst.

Oddly enough, I am willing to give Barry full credit on this one. He will own it. His poll numbers are already worse than Carter’s numbers at this point. It would be “priceless” if the cost weren’t the US economy and my personal liberty.
Ouch!
Not gonna touch that one.
Nope.
Question – how long have we been warning that it’s all about the O? Something north of a year?
If it takes a destroyed O Presidency to save the country (and it will), so be it. Ladies and gentlemen, let’s take Rogue Cheddar up on his drink offer – PROST!

Precisely. Rush, you magnificent @#$%^*&!.
I hope (and pray) that the President fails. There, I said it.
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”.

Ya know, the more he says that the more you know it really is all about him.
I’m sure he enjoyed his meteoric rise to the top. Now we get to see how he handles the trip back down.
Government takeover of healthcare is reparations. Why else would the bill be laced with racial preferences and race based decision making.
Read the bill. Even after Charlton Heston broke the story, there were still people who didn’t believe Soylent Green was people.

- Moe (MERRY MAVERICKS, 1951)
And you thought that was just pure fiction, didn’t you?
Me thinks Obama needs to be in a recovery program. One of the signs of an addictive dysfunctional mindset is when you make everyone else responsible for your failures.
He hasn’t even gotten all of the positions of his government filled yet. How many deadlines of things HE promised have not been met? And someone else is destroying his presidency?
He and his ideology is destroying his presidency.
But leave it to a leftist liberal to cry “Victim”.
Chief Victim. Sorta makes sense I guess.
Hey Odopey!
DLTDHYOTWO!!!!
What a shame, and to think its the first real job he’s ever had.

- Moe (HALF-SHOT SHOOTERS, 1936)
If there was one succinct statement to summarize the Reign of Hope-a-Dope, it’d be,
“It’s all about the ‘O’”
Much trouble comes when tyros in positions of great authority become too busy trying to write themselves into history to be bothered with learning anything from it.
And that observation will probably encapsulate the entire four years of the Age of Hope-a-Dope.
I said before the election, no one has yet seen if he can “take a punch.”
Well, we are finding out now aren’t we.
That’s the trouble with having a narcissist as the President. He didn’t say something like, “Let’s meet and work out our differences.” He said, “You’re going to destroy MY Presidency.”
So, it IS all about HIM!
Mr. President, if your agenda succeeds, you are going to destroy OUR country.
PS, I wonder how long before this becomes a racial issue? You know, angry white people (plus the ingrate Asian Michelle Malkin) conspiring to destroy a minority president.
Wait until grandma can’t get a hip replacement because the hospitals are overloaded with illegals having babies at $20,000 each. America may finally wake up and then you will see some real destruction.
‘I can kill with a word.’
–Paul Atreides
7, 6, 5, 4………
So, I guess it’s not about the “people”, it’s about his “legacy” and “presidency”.
As shallow as I had originally thought.
…been crossing my fingers for it since November…
Just hope HIS presidency is destroyed before MY country!
Mr. BHO, it’s about time that you must realize that the country will not jump when you say jump! Until you show us your original birth certificate, college transcripts, and other documents, you’re just a pretender.
Ah, but Paul had prescience and Pres. Obama bemoans his lack of a crystal ball.
Destroy your presidency? Hell no, you are going down.
Go back to Kenya!
Is it safe to talk about the Worlds Worst Kept Secret now that Rush brought it up?
The rate socialism is being rammed down our throats the need to undo all this change grows by the day, of course it is about him–destroying his stepping stone presidency ruins his plans to become dear
leaderruler of the world!and the president says, ‘You’re going to destroy my presidency.’”
He is truely looking out for us ——
Salt–I was trying to channel Paul Atreides, and kill the office with a word.
Proverbs 16:18 — Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Tiiiiiiiimmmmmmberrrrr!
Obie is doing a good job of destroying his presidency, as well as the entire country, all on his own.
You’re going to destroy my presidency? We can only hope for that change.
I know it’s no laughing matter, but that sounds like the punchline of a joke. Let’s see, it starts out, “A priest, a rabbi, and an imam walk into a bar.”
Can somebody help me out?
It’s not like we didn’t know this about him already- Libs are just too stupid to see it when blind drunk on kool-aid.

Wait until Michelle’s book comes out on Monday (Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats, Crooks, and Cronies), that should finish it for him! As an aside, have you all ordered your birthday postcard for BHO from WND with a picture of the White House saying “Where’s the Birth Certificate.” That should shove him over the edge.
Yeah…it’s NOT about you, Pookie!
Puh-lease! It’s not only just politics, it’s your form of liberal fascism, socialism, and strong-arm tactics, all of which takes us to a place WE don’t want to go.
What are our two choices?
Hummmm….Let’s see…
a) liberty and freedom with a good measure of Capitalism, or
b) indentured slavery as a result the Obama Oligarchic fascism?
We’ll end up paying for both, either way. Since we seem to have a deficit of right-thinking, patriotic personages representing us in Congress, we may, perhaps, require a measure of violent revolution to avoid the coming enslavement, or to re-embrace the notion that we have natural, inalienable, God given rights.

What’s the rush Anointed One? Are you worried that if Congress goes into recess without passing your ObamaScare Bill, they’ll come back armed with their constituent’s concern and you’ll lose their support?
Don’t worry, you can always bribe those that are straddling the fence just like the 8 RINOS in your CRap and Trade Bill.That’s more your style, Chicago mob style.
Think he’s going to run in 2012?
Not without a frickin birth certificate, he ain’t!
Since he has never STOPPED running despite being inagurated, perhaps the question should be modified to say,
Think he’s going to still be running through 2012?
I’ve said this before…
Does anybody besides me worry about his guy’s mental stability…???
I’m not convinced he’ll make it to the end of his first term. He’s liable to suffer a breakdown from the damage to his ego when the country turns against him.
Ease up Rogue. Give the guy a break.
It is taking a while to translate it into English.
No, I worry about his temper coupled with the blind loyalty and that some key constituency groups and his inner circle has.
The picture of bho on the main page makes him look evil, mean, and hateful. I imagine if his polls keep falling, we will see many more like this one.

“Didn’t you once tell me you were born in Oxford?” “I don’t remember, I was born awful young”

atheling: The way things are going, he had better run! Run away from this country , that is!
or,
“One of you will betray me”
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.
Sigh. Must use preview.
Trajectory!
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.
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.
Rogue and Salt–I should have chosen a better line from Paul….this one
“He who can destroy a thing, controls a thing.”
“So it shouldn’t be a total loss, I’m taking a bath!”
- Curly, to Moe and Larry (GENTS WITHOUT CENTS, 1944)
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.
from Collected Sayings of Muad’Dib by the Princess Irulan
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.
“Don’t you know that you are a shooting star?”

oooops ttiwkram could be a “her” so sorry for the assumption.
akoypinoy: As was his security clearance. THAT reeks of retribution!
The Fremen were supreme in that quality the ancients called “spannungsbogen” — which is the self-imposed delay between desire for a thing and the act of reaching out to grasp that thing.
from The Wisdom of Muad’Dib by the Princess Irulan
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.
Oops, Why DO you so biased against trans-gender people? = Why ARE you so biased against trans-gender people?
Rogue, I need a Stooges quote…. and quickly!
b-cat: Not by a long shot! The battle has just been joined by others and more will “March to the sound of guns.”

My only defense is that I live in Flyover Country; where men are men, and women are women, and the sheep are glad that the men know the difference.

See, I can see this guy getting really dark…way past Nixon on his worst day.
I can also see him folding like a cheap tent…just crashing.
