Obama the Ignorant

It would be nice if our president weren't so bleeping condescending and so quick to insult those who disagree with him. It also would be nice if he had a friggin clue what he is talking about. He insulted those who don't buy into what he calls "the overwhelming scientific evidence when it comes to climate change." No, Mr. Outsized Ego, there is definitely no consensus on climate change. As the old saying goes, the problem with The One isn't what he doesn't know, it's what he thinks he knows but that isn't actually true. Meanwhile, if his ego were deflated to about a quarter of its current size, it would still be four times larger than the average ego -- and he would still be putting out enough hot air to be a worse threat to global warming than the average Al Gore charter plane.

Arrogance is the hallmark of a narcissist, and Obama's a HUGE narcissist.

Quin,

He knows he loses the argument if he engages.

This is SOP for his whole operation - "There is no legitimate opposition to The One."

Is there ANYONE Obama hasn't insulted in one way or another? Actually yes. Welfare breeders. I revise my question to ask, "Is there any producing person Obama has yet to insult?"

Trial lawyers.

Not having been raised in America, the Kenyan is tone-deaf to the concept of America and of being an American. His "appointees" reflect that lack of understanding. Maybe he should ask his brother who is living in a hut why he'd want to come to the US, if he could.

Quin!

Firing for Effect!

I agree with all that is written here and I'm really concerned with how we prevent Mr SuperEgo from voting in favor of the climate change treaty in Copenhagen?

Nice news!

Let's not forget the word arrogant, it goes hand in hand with ignorant. Obama is a moron manipulated by white liberals.

Keep 'em coming, Quin.

You guys said the same things about Clinton, and he was reelected, Gore ran for prez, and Clinton's wife is SecState.

You need a better futurist than Gingrich looking in his crystal ball.

Most liberals are, in a nutshell, STUPID [or act '...LY']; and typically this comes from their northeast, ivy-league, Harvard [Yale or otherwise] sense of superiority and entitlement [ie Kennedys, Gore, Kerry, Schumer,etc]. They believe that the US belongs to the northeast, since our settlers first established residency there; and that the south, west,etc are just subservent and inferior to the elitiest northeasterners. Anyone studying the history of the Civil War are aware of this condesending attitude of the north concerning southerners [and it still prevails today]. If anyone doubts this idea, contemplate the national sports media's [MSM] constant discussion of the football teams such as Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame,etc; when in fact the top three teams in the country are Florida, Alabama and Texas. This moron president comes by it naturally, since he was educated at Columbia and Harvard, and thinks that naturally all other humans are beneath him [educationally speaking]!!!!
