So now you know the rest of the story. Every time you see the big Obama grin, remember what is driving him nuts – the Hillary itch that grows more irritating day by day; the itch that just won’t go away, and might eventually cause his mental heat to melt his politician cool, causing him to throw away his self-righteous script and scream obscenities as he confronts his pain.
Just imagine how stressful it is for Obama to stay so supremely confident, defiantly resisting that most human urge to scratch his Hillary bitch itch. His obsessive ambition to be the first black American president seems strong enough to resist rational human response. Is that the kind of person we want as president? Someone with such yes-we-can self-control, unable to boldly fight his pain because doing so might jeopardize his ego-soaked quest for the ultimate power? I see a character defect.
Obama seems too cerebral. I want a president that knows how to scratch his itch. If he cannot act on his pain, how can he act on my pain and the pain of many millions of other Americans?

Who is showing more obsession to be president? Is it the cool and controlled or the one who is screaming and drinking whisky and beer to please. Besides, Obama is not offering to scratch your itch; rather, he is offering to empower you to fight your itch. Make a choice between
1) A president who screams at the top of her lungs "I will fight for you," and promised plunge this country into more wars (obliterate Iran) OR
2) A president who uplifts you with his words and supports you with programs to deal with your problems, and engage in "diplomatic (not military) surge" to make this world more peaceful, and redeem the global image of Americans?

Akrob, I'd prefer a president who doesn't let government get in the way of us solving our own problems and who tells the rest of world to take their socialism and moral weakness and appeasement and 'fuck off'.

Dave:
Who makes us judge over who is morally weak and who is not. Our world has NEVER been us versus them but much less so since the Internet. We're all interconnected and peace or war in other parts of the world as much as much as what happens in our backyards. Give government a chance: we may know what is good us as individuals but the government considers our common good.

So, in other words, Obama can't figure out how to say what he thinks either about his own drive to be president or about his opponent's vulnerabilities. Just another wimp-man who can't string words together. It's very unsettling to realize that Hillary comes across more masculine and "strong" than he does. Just think about this: He would look sillier throwing back that shot of liquor that she did! It was disgusting to look at, but she looked at home doing it. Margaret Thatcher she ain't.

I don't find anything at all uplifting about the "Great Ambigious Obama Travelling Dog and Pony show."
