Emily must be a racist.

I only read it once before I posted, but I don´t believe Emily caught the bit about his watching the Watergate hearings the summer he was 11 years old. (And he has told us many times that that bus odyssey with Grandma et al was when he was 11. That would have been 1972.

The Watergate hearings were first televised on May 17, 1973.

ME, it´s all about ME.
you, it was supposed to be all about you.
But it is ME. In the end it is all about ME.

A gigantic raspberry to the 53% of the voters in this last election, and a giant Fickle Finger of Fate to all Blue State idiots, for foisting upon our nation four more years of the worst president in our history. Nixon looks positively trustworthy, and Carter and eminent statesman next to this imbecilic narcissist.

Good job Emily, wow. This was shocking. A courageous man who would have given his own life for his comrades reduced to an anecdote on the Obama family vacation. It´s sickening, but the sad part is it´s not unexpected anymore.

Emily - didya notice that he named is dog Bo, after himself? B.O. ???


Was that a clue?

Once in a while there is a perfect headline written. This is one of those times.

I´m bored of listening to people who voted for Obama twice complain about him.

WTG, Emily! I love her "Dear Prudence" column, and she nails it here.

Danny? Danny?!? Good grief, this guy is condescending even to the dead.

Four more years of this - can we bear it?

If Democrats are bothered by candidates lacking in personal integrity, why do they keep electing and glorifying them? and why do they keep demonizing just those opponents who are strongest in character?

They are only bothered when it shows too much, as that makes fooling the people harder.

It´s good to know that some of the blind can be made to see again, but many of us had president dillweed nailed four years ago. The speech in Berlin, the Greek columns, the over-the-top party in Chicago. It´s nothing but nauseating memories now. This clown should have never seen the inside of the White House. He embarrasses us continually before the entire world.

Mr. L and I watched this classic PINO performance. He´s got it down pat.

Narcissistic personality disorder, Classic. Pathetic POTUS. Even more pathetic electorate.

So people come away from Senator Inouye´s funeral not remembering the man for whom the service was held, but remembering the narcissistic, corrosive ramblings of the insecure and disturbed man who stood up to "honor" him.
That is sad.

This egomaniacal/narcissist (narcissism is a disease) is a super salesman,who is totally efficient at selling HIMSELF.

Obama is more suited to be an emperor in Ancient Rome. In fact, I am not sure but he may be the reincarnation of Nero. One thing is certain, he shames this country by his very presence. He is the antithesis of any of our founding fathers and is unworthy of the office he holds.

What a fool.

I hope the 65,000,000 completely clueless voters forget to vote for every election until they die. There should be a test to weed out the stupid voters.

Obama makes Bill Clinton look humble.

If Obama´s date of birth was a holiday, the economy would take off like a rocket. Since we´re not really sure of the date, we´d be shopping for gifts every day.

ditto #13. I could not bring myself to watch.

Obama is like an old vaudevilian(sp?)joke. Except the majority of voters in this country must have no sense of humor, they elected this joke.

My cat thinks he´s the center of the universe too.

"Al," a poster on Slate, supports Zippy in this, but doesn´t seem to realize what he´s doing to our country. Intentionally.

What´s with those people?

Is there any doubt why man connects so well with the selfish, antipathetic, and parsimonious populace that elected him? His self-involved ramblings are to them, like looking in a mirror of their own souls.

To the low information voters of the low infomation party, he´s an icon. It´s what America now is. Sad.

Come on #2, you know that looking at his birth certificate is off limits. If he says he was watching Watergate, then it happened.

....and besides, EVERY 11 year old was glued to the TV watching those hearings.

There will not be many mourners in the mosgue when he leaves this world.

Read the first few lines to Daughter #2 after church, last evening... and from Slate... Great writing and thread... Sad for us.

May more people wake up.

I thought Presidents have speech writers. What happened to them? Does he write his own speeches?

#2 as much as I hate to admit this Obama was born 8/4/61, that would make him 11 on 5/17/73.
But hey I know Hitler´s birthday also.

#31 may be right on the birthday, but #27 is right to question that an 11 year old was glued to the TV watching Watergate hearings. Of course, there wasn´t much else on TV at the time, no MTV w hip-hop or rap, so maybe he happen to see some of it.

It is so hard to keep up with the facts because such effort is made to obscure the facts in his case. I thought he didn´t get back to Hawaii from Indonesia until he was 12, but maybe someone was rounding the numbers.

He forgot to mention that he climbed Mount Everest with Sir Edmund Hillary.

He´s been talking at our funeral non stop,

He is a scary combination of narcissist and lightweight. (PS--I loved this article)

A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury

Give him enough rope?.......Maybe.......Maybe not.

What else do you expect? He has been talking like this since day one. This is how he reaches his non-intelligent voters. He knows how to talk to them, how to twitter them, how go give them phones so they can listen to him. Hitler had nothing on him. I think he must be following Hitler´s lead. I wonder how many books he has read on Hitler.

#30, I think this is what happens when Obama is left to speak on his own.

NO. 17, they used to have a way of eleminating voters who could not read, or understand. It was called a Poll Tax. The liberals destroyed that so they could win elections.

I just wonder when he´s going to make his horse a counsel.

Oops. Make that Consul.

need coffee...now.

Why are we surprised? Just another day in the life of The Bamster.

Definition of narcissistic personality disorder..."The narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance and a deep need for admiration. Those with narcissistic personality disorder believe that they´re superior to others and have little regard for other people´s feelings. But behind this mask of ulra-confidence lies a fragile self-esteem, vulnerable to the slightest criticisms."

MayoClinic.com

They used to say that Bill Clinton was the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral.

Dear Leader(US) makes Bill Clinton look like a piker ...

The man is seriously deranged.

Look at me, look at me, look at me, now see over there is a dead guy... now QUICK, look back at me!!

Obama is the STAR and we scrubs are merely HIS EXTRAS.

#42... unnecessary, Michelle has enough power already, don´t you think :p

In this instance it´s called "stolen valor."
Disgraceful. Does anyone care to guess where the bottom may be with this creature?

Fortunately I did not watch the speech. Emily’s report made me gag. This guy is beyond redemption.

I agree with posters who are not impressed with the tone of any liberal who writes to criticize Obama. They looooove him and just need a little copy. They would vote for him if he personally burned down the white house and killed their own mother.

The entire substance of the eulogy was based on a lie. He did NOT see the Watergate hearings on his vacation per his own words (well, Bill Ayers´ own words) in Dreams becaue of the year of his vacation. It was impossible for that to happen and it did not happen. He lied, yet again and it is ridiculously easy to prove he lied. It is amazing that it does not and will not ever matter to his worshipers, who now own the vote until the USA is no more. Ad hominems to all, and to all (especially the United States) a good night.

Well #44, he´s a textbook case - prickly, dismissive of others, consumed with his own, ahem, fascinating self, and grandiose in his self-image and yet prickly, thin skinned, etc. etc. My, who are the idiota who voted for this creature. But for his skin color, he´d be some functionary at a union or semi-no-show public job.

No surprise to those who´ve been paying attention. When the Won speaks, his nose is always in the air - like Benito Mullsolini and other dictators. The narcissism of the American dictator was so blatant this time that even Slate couldn´t ignore it.

All hail the Won. /s

Self-centered to the core. Just like those who voted for him.

The One is a piece of dirt.

If you’re planning on buying BHO a gift for his next birthday, FYI, it’s rumored he’s registered at Mirrors R Us.

The article does not do the horrendous eulogy justice.
I found the actual text and had to double check
to make sure that it wasn´t from The Onion.
A sample - reads like a 5 year old wrote it.
"So we flew over the ocean, and with my mother and my grandmother and my sister, who at the time was two,
we traveled around the country.
It was a big trip. We went to Seattle, and we went to Disneyland — which was most important.
We traveled to Kansas where my grandmother´s family was from, and went to Chicago, and went to Yellowstone.
And we took Greyhound buses most of the time, and we rented cars, and we would stay at local motels or Howard Johnson´s.
And if there was a pool at one of these motels, even if it was just tiny, I would be very excited.
And the ice machine was exciting — and the vending machine, I was really excited about that. "

It was so jaw dropping that one ( not the media ) has to wonder if Obama is back on the crack pipe.
No Republican would ever get away with
behaving like this .
The polar opposite of Barry´s bizarre behavior
was former Senator Bob Dole.
89 year old Dole is apparently pretty much confined
to a wheelchair now.
When he got to the Capitol Rotunda to pay his respects ,
Dole walked to Inouye´s casket with the help of his wife
and another man.
Dole said he didn´t want Danny to see
him in a wheelchair .
Then Dole gave a smart salute with his left arm .

The old Cossack proverb has come true:
´The worst kind of murderous tyrant is infinitely preferable to the Lout as Lord´.

That is what we have: the Lout as Lord.

Inouye was a hero, plain and simple, but he got what he deserved for being a Democrat. You´re known by the company you keep.


Girl´s Hubby

Although obama is a Jackass so was the late senator inouye.

And if there were any justice, my 8YO daughter would be watching the FastnFuriousBenghaziGate trial of Barack Hussein Obama, et.al.

When I remember the dead senators´ watergate and iran contra, it reminds me of how corrupt he and other dims were manufacturing bogus charges - flapears and his ugly family are just more of the same.

When this self-absorbed jerk finally gets his comeuppance (and it may not happen until he reaches the Pearly Gates) its going to be one heck of a whopper.

Barack Obama IS Forrest Gump....

After listening to Obama´s Eulogy ( of HIMSELF!).
You´d guess that Democrats would want to go out and shoot themselves. Their cupidity knows no bounds!

Sorry, couldn´t read the article - Slate puts this stuff out so people will think they are actually relevant.

Great comments, L-dotters!

As for zippy, he caint hep hisself!

Didn´t he say his mother was on the March to Selma, with MLK, JR and met BHO Sr there?
Didn´t say that is grandfather liberated a concentration camp?
Didn´t he give Queen Elizabeth an MP 3 of his speechifying?
Didn´t he give the Partially blind PM Brown of england a colletion of vids in thewrong format for the UK?
Also Obama does not have much competent staff either.

Let the new clarion call for mental health awareness begin in the oval office with our pathetic Narcissist in Chief.

Barack Obama meets every single textbook definition of the psychological disorder known as "malignant narcissism."

The man is absolutely pathological, and in serious need of intensive psychological help.

It is not at all comforting to know that someone this seriously mentally ill holds power in the White House.

´Danny´ we hardly knew ye from your own funeral. But, we knew ye must have been someone important because we heard you influenced a little half black/half white boy, "who was born and raised in Hawaii", and he REALLY became someone important - even more important than you, Danny.

I can´t comment on anything the empty chair says. Every time he´s on the tv, I have to turn it off. Is it my imagination and dislike for this person that I feel he´s on a lot more times a day, week or year than any other president. Doesn´t he ever work?

Does Obama realize that the campaign is over? He seems to think it´s still on. Thus, everything has to be about him.

Perhaps victory has made the narcissist even more narcissistic. With such people, there´s no such thing as boundaries. Everything - including a solemn funeral - has to be imbued with sense of self. I, I, I...me, me, me.

I couldn´t sit through this. Did Zero wipe away any more invisible tears?

It´s "Allah" bout me! Me! Meeeeeeeeeee!!

Unbelievably conceited.

What is that number that appears in everybody´s post? Is that new? Is it a membership number?

Must be a "post" number because it changes with every posting.

If the sickness of narcissism could be defined clinically, this creature we now have living in our White House is a living example of it.
