Okay so they caught Obama with a copy of GQ featuring himself on the cover. Does that make him vainglorious? Of itself, probably not but his habit of running to the TV camera every-time he has something to say is a bit much. He pardoned a turkey and made and appearance to tell us how committed he is.
Yet, General McCrystal has been waiting months for an answer to his troop request and he can wait just a bit longer so Barak can reveal to the world his long awaited strategy on Tuesday evening during primetime. As I understand it, it will be a 45 minute speech complete with an exit strategy. Perhaps he plans to talk the Taliban and Al Qaeda to death. In the meantime the Brits are looking for their own exit strategy of having lost confidence in America’s prosecution of this war.
Add to this the upcoming Oprah-Obama Christmas special and let the self-aggrandizing behavior abound. Dang. Forgive me if I chuckle out loud just a little at this: “Christmas at the White House: An Oprah Primetime Special”. This festive soiree will include interview with the president, a conversation with the First Couple and tour of the White House. Oh goodie! We get one of our presents early. Be sure to set your clocks to snooze. All this news comes on the heels of Oprah’s 18 month notice that she will be quitting her show. Perhaps she and Barry will change jobs as she has been so actively involved of late in politics and he in TV.
My dad used to say that Fish and House Guests both begin to stink after 3 days. While not exactly parallel to Barry’s situation I do admit his incessant presence on my TV stinks to high heaven. Barry if you are listening shut up already and do something that helps us. We don’t want to see your face we want to see jobs and smaller government. We want honesty and transparency. We want our freedoms and we want to keep what we earn. We want to be charitable on our own without your dictates and we want to worship God, in public, without shame, legally, and not according to the wacky few. We want a Republic and we want Health Care reform that isn’t loaded with your Socialist agenda.
You know I said we want. Let me rephrase: We insist! We even demand it!

I believe that future generations should have the same opportunities that myself, and those that came before me, had. My parents taught me that I could do anything I wanted to do. I don’t want to have to tell my daughter, “You can do whatever the government tells you to do.” We are at a crossroads in this country; are we going to be free, or are we going to be slaves to the nanny state. I choose freedom.
No more ObamaTV? Now THAT would be a great Christmas gift…
Seems little doubt that Obama is a ham. Sadly its more about him than it is about America and we are stuck, yes stuck with the ego-centric guy for 3 more years if we are lucky and he doesn’t lie his way into a second term. Will he change, I have serious doubts but can alway hope. Hope that sounds familiar, but his “hope and Change” has turned to “hope for change” with me.
I’m thinking the entire media saturation is more about distracting the public from Omama’s advisers, Cap and Trade, ClimateGate, Child Prostitution, Health Care, unemployment, and so on. That, and his hubris.

Every time I go in a store and see the 5 books or magazines with him on the cover I turn them around. Unfortunately Michelle is usually on the back.
Trestin, Way too funny. To me his is on TV more than “Erectile Dysfunction” ads. And while he is a limp leader a pill won’t help him.
How did America make this mistake???
