Obama knows he won the Presidential Election. He even said so last week. "I won."
He knows he took the oath of office... twice (because they misspoke the first time).
He knows he's moved into a nice, spiffy new house painted white.
But, does he realize that he's no longer on the campaign trail and that he's actually President of the United States?
I don't think so.
Obama's reaction to the aversion of his vision of a stimulus/socialist package is a prime example of someone who doesn't know what it means to be President.
A President does not consider inviting opposing party members to a meeting equates to bipartisan support. As one Fox News analyst put it, since all of the House Republicans and 11 Democrats voted in opposition to the proposal, the only thing bipartisan is a vote AGAINST the stimulus package.
A President does not publicly call out a citizen of the country (Rush Limbaugh) and vocal critic and tell all Republicans to stop listening to him. He should be above that. He's actually intimidated by Rush Limbaugh? The President is intimidated by a talk show host? Really??? Apparently so, because now the Dems want to push the Fairness Doctrine... I'll get into that in a later entry.
A President isn't supposed to tell the American people that if you don't do what he wants it may cause us to fall into a hole we can never pull ourselves out from. How egocentric!
Look man, you're supposed to first voice your vision, then engage in a little politics, gather support from the people and then make your case.We elected you, Hussein, you should know we're willing to listen to your ideas.
But if they stink, we'll tell you it reeks. That's called Freedom of Speech. You can look it up!
Obama's reaction since ascending to the pinnacle of his very short-lived political career smacks of one thing... arrogance.
Let me give you a word of advice from one of these citizens of which you are to represent... humble yourself. You're not the smartest man on the planet. Or the country. Or in my own circle of friends.
You have a VERY important job that takes many great ideas, not just the ones you sketched out on a cafe napkin while on the campaign trail. There are a LOT of great ideas in this country that are founded on the basic freedoms of this country, including the free market.
Obama's arrogance assumes that we will do what he says and that he has the right to control what we do.
Here's a bulletin for you, Mr. President... YOU WORK FOR ME!
I, along with 300 million average citizens out here, have some ideas about your mighty government. Most of us think it's bloated, self-important, vacuous of truly new ideas and NOT representing the people of this nation. Making that pile of stench in Washington, DC even larger is not a solution!
The fact that you said that the government is the only way we can get out of this scares me a bit. When has the government (other than nation defense and infrastructure) actually solved ANYthing????
Look, Mr. O, I hope you succeed. I really do! You're my President!
But for God's sake, can you start acting like one? It's embarrassing.

Yes, and when he stated that if we don't solve the economic crisis we're facing he could end up being a 1 term president, I thought "why is he worrying about himself"?
