Obama is the 4th Best President?
CBS's 60 Minutes edited the part of Steve Kroft's interview with Obama where Obama alludes pretty strongly to being the fourth best president in American history........the part they cut is in the above link.
He flatters himself, of course......His exact words are "I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president -- with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln -- just in terms of what we've gotten done in modern history."
Wait...JOHNSON is one of the TOP THREE presidents? ANDREW JOHNSON? Surely he can't mean LYNDON JOHNSON! (but he does) And FDR? YIKES!
Well, I'm glad Obama has such a high opinion of himself ! I guess I'm really less troubled about that (and less surprised about it), than I am that Sixty Minutes edited it out...(not that I'm surprised about that, either, of course.) Oh, I know..my liberal commenters will remind us that TV shows only have so much time per segment so they can't show everything (though we all know that) .....but wouldn't anybody think it's pretty big NEWS that a president rates himself so highly, particularly when he's so low in the opinion of the public?
Well, I hate to be the "Bob Beckel" of the Golly-Geeeeez blog.
I will first admit that I haven't seen the clip yet. Nevertheless, I read the quote a few times, and I just don't detect this egregious level of arrogance. His quote sounds like a president campaigning for his second term. I'll give you that. But I think that's understandable considering the timetable.
To be blunt, I've never heard of a politician who doesn't sound braggadocios at least some of the time. If Obama's particularly arrogant, what is Newt Gingrich? And what on Earth is Herman Cain?
"I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president -- with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln -- just in terms of what we've gotten done in modern history."
net, as I said, it's that 60 Minutes axed it more than he said it. Gingrich is an arrogant ass, as are most of them, but I think he's the most of the Republican bunch.
Also, net....LYNDON JOHNSON? REALLY? :-)
"GOTTEN" Since when did that become a WORD? AOW, could you weigh in on that :-)?
I imagine in the not too distant future we will see one more face added to Rushmore. Obama's fans reminds me of Kim Jong Ill's population all trained to clap in unison like trained seals
Brooke, it's all the left's got when they don't take the time to read or watch a post's video and then have to protect Obama! The tape goes on, unedited, and it's "out of context" :-) poor libdude; the biggest Koolaid drinker since Jim Jones' poor sycophants.
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." -- Ronald Reagan

Mac 'n GeeeZis my food blog...enjoy! Sorry I haven't added to it in a long while.
President Obama has done such a horrible job with the economy and foreign policy that now Kenyans are accusing him of being born in the United States :-)
important reminders:
We are surrounded by IDIOTS...Mr. Z
“Barack Obama's political genius is his ability to say things that will sound good to people who have not followed the issues in any detail —regardless of how obviously fraudulent what he says may be to those who have. Shameless effrontery can be a huge political asset, especially if uninformed voters outnumber those who are informed.” Thomas Sowell.........AMEN Tolerance is the last virtue of a dying society. (doesn't matter who wrote it, it's true and it's here)
The modern definition of 'racist' is someone who is winning an argument with a liberal.... Peter Brimelow
The difference between golf and government is that in golf you can't improve your lie. ~George Deukmejian

(and I like Newt, btw)
Obama is a megalomaniac.
BTW, both Mr. AOW and I posted this video -- each of with our own commentary. I posted it over at IBA, where Epa commented as follows:
He is not an amateur
He is not incompetent
HE
IS

About a year ago, I came to the same conclusion and so stated HERE. I haven't changed my mind
The ego has landed.
He forgot Washington.
"I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president -- with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln -- just in terms of what we've gotten done in modern history."
My retort:
*gag* Whut a maroon!
Biased?
Perish the thought!

P.S.
Sometimes even the MSM/DEM realize that Obaka's in way over his head.
Or perhaps he's too far up his own nose?

Why do leftists give a break to FDR regarding the Japanese internment camps? That blows my mind.
FB: The way MSM see it, it was AMERICANS, not FDR who put those Japanese in those internment camps.
See, FDR did no wrong. The American people are the real enemy.
As for President BO (the child president), he is a clinical narcicist and truely thinks of himself as THE ONE.
Notice he said "...with the POSSIBLE..." (as opposed to actual or probable)"... exception of..."
Obummer makes a typical DC Pol mistake: Equating passing bloated, horror-filled laws with "success."
It's a bi-partisan malady...

Lisa...good point!
Angel...same to YOU.
Your Christmas message by Netanyahu is a blessing, thanks for posting that.
Obama is unreal. He is a god unto himself, in his own mind.
And no, he did not forget Washington... He holds the first president in scorn.
The clip is edited out of context bullshit. And those of you who parrot Rush's 'egomaniac' or 'megalomanic' crap are loons.
Maybe you should turn off Fox to see his actual accomplishments:

Rush? Fox News? This is from 60 Minutes.
And out of context? The words coming out of Obama's mouth seem pretty darn clear.
Brooke, it's all the left's got when they don't take the time to read or watch a post's video and then have to protect Obama!
