WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama says only once since Jan. 20 has White House life annoyed him.
It was the Saturday in May when, trying to be a good husband, he kept a campaign promise to take his wife, Michelle, to New York after the election for one of their "date nights" - dinner and a Broadway play.
Conservative commentators and Republican officials criticized him for doing so.
"People made it into a political issue," Obama told The New York Times Magazine for an article about the Obamas' marriage, appearing in the Nov. 1 issue. The article was posted on the Times' Web site on Wednesday.
Explaining why Obama is so full of crap with his crybaby whinging is slightly embarrassing. It is sort of like having to explain to a grown man or woman that water really is wet or that the sun really is bright. You are sitting there with charts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration showing that the ocean really is deep all the while thinking that this person can't be this retarded and he must be doing this just to get under your skin. . .
In fact that is a pretty good description of just about any argument with a left-liberal.
But in the case of Obama's "date night" you have to put it in the context of everything else in his pathetic excuse for a presidency.
Starting with the fact that he has played golf more in the first nine months of his term than George W Bush did in the first two years.
Then there's their massively expensive junket to Copenhagen to try and secure the Olympics for Chicago where their appeal to the IOC amounted to a personal appeal to the Committee to give the Games to Chicago because it would make the Obama and his wife really happy.
And all the other cases of his constant self-referencing. No matter what he is speaking about the one certainty will be massively high recurrence of personal pronouns. Obama could be presenting the Medal of Honor to the mother of the Marine who gave his life capturing Osama bin Laden and the entire senior leadership of al Qaeda and the words "I" and "me" would appear in the speech at least 50 times more than any reference to the fallen hero or his deeds.
We could add his enemies list and his sense of entitlement to the servile obedience of the news media.
Then there's his dithering on Afghanistan as part of a political calculation where is is trying not to anger the lunatic fringe base of his party before congress votes on his national socialist health care system.
We could go on but there really isn't any need to. The sad and frightening fact is that the American people have committed the serious, and perhaps fatal, error of electing a malignant narcissist with no qualifications, other than the color of his skin and the ability to read a teleprompter, to be the leader of the free world.
Obama is immature, unprepared and totally out of his depth and what is worse he does not realize any of this. In his mind Obama blesses the nation simply by his splendid presence and is fully entitled to spend over ten million dollars of taxpayer money on a "date night" with his wife.
And we have more than three years to go. . .
