Obama is one cool Mo'Fo!

[The Magic Pudding]

US President Barack Obama says he doubts his decisions "constantly" and makes mistakes daily but thinks he has become a better president with more on-the-job experience.

"I second-guess myself constantly ... I make a mistake, you know, every hour, every day," the Democrat seeking re-election in November said with a laugh in an ABC News interview.

I find doubt reassuring, cool to I suppose.
Those infallible types are scary.

Obama is getting cooler again, lately. Of course, it could just be the relative radioactive stupidity of the GOP as a whole, but I think he is gaining a cool factor.

[Whateverist]

Sometimes I think he just has to keep his cool covered because of who his electorate is. There are probably people in the U.S. who would vote with a guy they can imagine having a beer with, but not one who comes off as intimidatingly smart. W proved that many americans are okay with "C–" guys. Who needs those elites pushing agendas we don't understand? In this country, the more you say, the more you're pissing off someone who isn't going to vote for you.

As cool as anyone could be who swaggers around their barracks bragging about how cool they are

Strawman fallacy.


What on earth does that have to do with their performance?

Plus; How do you know? Spent a lot of time in SEAL'S barracks have you? If not,that's a pretty ignorant thing to say,and just makes you look like an asshole (in my opinion)

I did not criticize their performance.

I don't like that Obama guy.
On grounds on foreign policies, no offense.
But really, I don't know how he actually managed to make things take a turn for the better.
Really, he received a nobel prize for some reason, yet at that time, he did not even allowed the military to move out of Iraq yet.
I think that it was given to him so that he wouldn't start any more new wars, and he effectively stayed out of Libya for that matter, but really, it's been years, and I don't know if any of you have any "hope" whatsoever, since people are willing to move to Sweden as soon as possible.

The bitchface in me loved this so much. I usually wish I could smack the taste out ya mouth when I read your posts in political threads, but this spoke to the cynical bitch within. It even made me laugh because it was funny in a true way, and not a "fuck! mehmet's a dumbass" way. Muchos gracias mi amigo.

I don't mean to spark cynicism, but I think that people seem to be losing the *hope* they had when they voted for this person.
You're welcome.

I think you need to take a better look at the Republican candidates, KM. Then you can see that, whereas some of us have not been exactly amazed by Obama, there is a great difference between him and "Abandon all hope, ye who enter," which is the GOP bandwidth.
